I am Amar Singh, a child of this democracy. Amongst my credentials are the titles of a son, a brother, a husband, a father, an industrialist, a politician and now, a blogger. Conventionally, the age of 53 might not be considered apt to venture out on a new project, but I refuse to believe that. Some revelations come early, some come later. Thus, with this leap to the online society, I finally arrive with the appropriate time and space to debate & discuss, uncut and uncensored.

This venture, being an emotional one, after my recent health hazard had me reminiscing of time spent, about today and a questionable tomorrow. An important moment in my life came in the operating theater, under the effects of anesthesia. I knew what was important, what was essential, where do my duties belong and above all, who my real loved-ones are. More on this after dutifully completing my very own blog’s, very-own introductory post…

My entry into politics has not been an easy effort. And that’s an understatement! Truth be told, I see the similarity in Sri Mulayam Singhji and myself, in our approach to life and work. Neither of us carried a family lineage of politics, we both have risen only through hard work and duty. It certainly isn’t child’s play to achieve in politics something substantial without a safety net, readily available to cushion your fall. But then, some things are better learnt the hard way. Every baby crawls before he walks. After repeated failures, while he may falter, he can walk successfully. I walk my walk and talk my talk and I’ve learned it this way.

Through this blog I hope to add and enter another dimension of communication between both of us. This blog isn’t about Amar Singh, the industrialist or Amar Singh, the politician. My allegiance is to you; the Indian citizen as well as global citizens. This blog is a platform for Amar Singh, the common man, just like all others. Feel free to express yourself here, to interact, to debate; and even to argue. The intention of this blog is to connect…nothing more, nothing less.
