Indian Government and Professional Education
2009-06-19 05:26:00 Indian Education System It is out misfortune that we have failed to provide primary education to the children of 6-14 age groups. And now centre and state governments have started to give simple and technical education in private hands. India?s invaluable youth is today wandering in foreign countries in search of professional education and work and are falling prey to the racial attacks. People?s honestly saved money is going to the foreigner banks. After the 60 years of independence we have failed to provide work-oriented education to our youth. The reality is it that 2.50 lakh youths go abroad to do studies every year. And with it India?s 50.000 crore rupees are transferred to the economies of other countries and at the other end it is affecting the Indian economy adversely. People are spending this money to get work-oriented education and it is expected that by getting the professional education they will get work in those countries but in those countries the job opp...

Politician and Criminals
2009-06-17 04:38:00 Indian Politician s In recent times we have noticed that a strong relationship has been established between politics and crime. It is the proven truth that in democratic countries most of the politicians are blamed of having indulged in different kind of crimes. But in India the situation is worst. There are very few leaders who have not been blamed for indulging in any kind of crime. But it can not be denied that Indian politicians are the most corrupt and criminal politicians are compared to the politicians of other democratic countries. There is no such kind of crime in which any of our politicians have not experimented with. They have been found even in human trafficking and killings of innocent people.

REVISE THE STANDARDS FOR SAFETY
2008-05-29 05:59:00 One of the key issues in achieving water sustainability is the pollution of water resources. Pollution of water resources, particularly the surface water exacerbates water constraints and shortages. Majority of rivers, lakes and seasonal rivulets in the country are today contaminated with the discharge of sewage and effluents. While the groundwater is largely pure, the leaching of contaminants as pesticide residue and heavy metals is increasingly threatening underground resource too. Significant progress has been made with regard to availability of appropriate technology to treat the sewage before it is discharged into the surface water. The standards that prescribe the level of treatment before the sewage is discharged into a water body are also in place. In spite of all these, the surface water bodies remain polluted. The river Yamuna is an example of all efforts to improve the quality of wastewater that went waste. The fault lies in adopting standards that do not... More About: Standards , Safety , Culture

Inflation And Roi
2008-05-24 15:34:00 We no longer see a 50 or a 25 paisa coins. It is still minted by the Reserve Bank of India. Inflation has rendered these two denominations barring of any buying power. In cities, no one accepts them. Expenditure on households in the budget across the country has been increased due to the inflation based on the Wholesale Price Index as it has touched a 59 week high. Food items have become expensive. Primary food articles, like pulses, fruits, vegetables and spices have increased the burden on the pocket of a common man. Increase in the prices of oil and manufactured goods also fueled inflation. Being pinched on a daily basis, common man has become more conscious about the food prices across the nation. What doesn?t come the mind of a common man immediately is the fact that the value of savings and investments is also getting eaten by the inflation.

It is peak time to remember the golden era of the Indian Hockey when India got a medal in the Olympics from 1928-1980 except once in 1976 which includes 8 golds. It all started for a friendship between two British colonels who were part of Gallipoli Tragedy during the First World War. As a friendship gesture, an Indian Army hockey team toured for the first time to New Zealand in 1926. The hosts were shocked by the classic game showcased by the visitors and thereby established that Indians are indeed a world apart.

When the local buyers and sellers are waiting in the annexes of the market to make attractive gains, so are the NRIs. According to the experts the transactions in buying and selling in real estate which involves the NRI community have increased in the past two years. This rich community has helped scale up the market prices by investing heavily in the real estate sector. The NRI community and IT professionals were on the top of the list when the local and national players were busy launching their residential projects.

The Assam movement once seemed to be a stellar success of Indian democracy which started in 1979 and ended in 1985. But in retrospect its failures have become more apparent. The movement, led by the All Assam Students Union and the All Asom Gana Sangram Parishad, saw extraordinary mobilization against illegal immigration and the enfranchisement of non-citizens that, campaigners believed, risked turning the ?indigenous? people of Assam into a political minority. The Congress government, headed by Hiteshwar Saikia, resigned and the movement was ended with an agreement between the Indian government and the movement leaders.

She added ghazals to the classical stage and approachable to the common man. She knew how to communicate with her audience.

Not a soul was left to mourn as the whole family, including a four month old child, was killed by a terrorist gang on the suspicion that they were police informers. The massacres were as common as marriages during the 80s with more than 25000 lives lost including that of a prime minister. Two decades later, Cheema Batth is still haunting us.
