WATCH THIS FORTNIGHT

Politicians are busy with their politics, each claiming some achievement and pretending to be the messiah of the poor. Nepal earthquake has shaken up Nepal and India did speak of panic if an earthquake of such intensity were to strike Delhi. For a couple days in Delhi they talked of it and have now got lost in usual political activities. In the meantime the Delhi court had admitted a P.I.L

After the Nepal earthquake of 25 April 2015, many scientists have said that if a similar earthquake were to hit Delhi the number of deaths here would be in lakhs. The Delhi High Court  has issued a direction after a PIL was filed as reported here.

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday rapped the city's municipal corporations for "dereliction of duty" and allowing buildings to come up without complying with regulations saying it may result in death of lakhs of people if an earthquake, like that in Nepal, occurs in Delhi. A bench of justices Badar Durrez Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva made the observation after it was told by a civic body that about 80 per cent of the buildings in Delhi have come up without complying with regulations, including those of structural stability. The court also observed that since 80% of the structures have come up without following the regulations, if a earthquake like the one in Nepal occurs here, the casualties would not be in thousands but in lakhs. It issued notice to the Delhi government and municipal corporations seeking their responses by May 20 on a PIL questioning how safe were the structures in the national capital if an earthquake of a huge magnitude happens in Delhi.
============================
Now look at the horoscope of the coming fortnight starting from 18 May with four planets in Vrisha including Mars aspected by Saturn and see the danger from untimely rains again ruining crops and threatening earthquakes in the north east, the centre and mostly likely in south west which may be even Rann of Kutch.

Astrologers , as I have said in an earlier article, will have to work with seismologists to work on the epicenter and intensity as they are not equipped to do it, left to themselves. As far as I am aware of, only a team of geologists in the university of Madras, Department of Geology had worked on it combing brilliantly astrology and geology till 2008 and predicted some earthquakes in advance as none in the world has done. One of them N.Venkatnathan now teaches Physics of  Earthquakes in Sastra University in Thanjavur. It is not known if the Department of Science and Technology , Government of India, has woken up to take note of his researchand to use it for more productive and useful purposes in the national interests. Personally, I have not met Mr. Venkatanathan but have read about his work only on the internet.

In the horoscope given the Prithvi tattwa rashis are afflicted  in the birth horoscope and in the navamsha Sun and Moon are again in Prithvi tattwa rashis fortunately with Jupiter. Yet, a need exists to wake up to the danger of destruction that is likely to be wrought by untimely rains and earthquakes in the fortnight and the first three days, 18,19 and 20 with Moon remaining in Vrisha and Mercury retrograding are the ominous signs we cannot ignore.
