About India


India's global face is changing. India is considered as one of the biggest developing countries. India and China are the two giants in Asia Pacific region. Economic gurus says we hold the key to future. Our GDP growth is immense. Even in the time of global crisis we stood firm and it affected us in the least. Two days earlier Pakistan's Finance Minister confessed that they cannot afford to buy armaments as India do, even at war India could easily go on for 45 days. And recently India entered into the list of top-12, having an HNI (high net worth individual) population 12th largest in the world. We all know our respected ex-President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam said we could attain the status of a developed country i n 2020, if we plan our future commitments correctly.

But of course we have other side just like a coin. If we consider rural India the view is not so promising. People are migrating from village to cities in search of jobs. With agriculture promising no success at all, these people are forced to look for an alternative mean.However Govt. has organised and implemented certain plans like PMGSY, SGRY, SGSY etc. The main problem with our country's govt. for that matter people is that we don't do anything completely. we start with a bang then after some time the energy and momentum goes down. For these plan/yojnas to take affect we need to implement it correctly. Govt. should be always ready to react properly to the feedbacks from this yojnas.

In the past decade India had undergone a serious of changes in her attitude and culture. India became more and more globally acknowledgeable. We are now trying to cope with European and American economies as well as their culture. More and more economical ties with the other nations give you chance to mingle with different people with different culture. So as a result of that "cultural mingling "occurs. This definitely have its good and bad effects. We all know how much European culture affected our lives.

Our GDP growth may look promising but in real we have many areas which need proper look out. With more than 1.5 lack HNIs, our GDP would be looking cool, for sure. But the real India's soul lies in the commoners. As long as there are people suffering from poverty, illness, lack of proper education, we can't say that we are prospering.

The bloodsucking Yakshi

When I was a kid, April and May fell in the list of my favourite months. Not because it's going to rain and there would be mud all around, but those are the months my cousins would be here at our family house, in our hometown in Kerala. Those are the memories I would cherish forever. My grand-mother has 5 offsprings, 4 boys and a girl. My father is the second eldest of five. Then, he was the only one staying in Kerala and everyone else was in different parts of India, a Pan-India Family one could say. We were all present, it's like Parliament, shouting, laughing, scolding children, people everywhere, busy doing their chores. An outsider entering the home can still go unnoticed. Life was less complicated then. We were just ........just ourselves. Everyone you valued dearly is with you. It's like, the world has shrunken to a square block of bricks and mortar. Now it's all feel like a fairy-tale, one of the best things about joint-family. We are all tired of day's...

Youth and Politics

Our political system is crippling and burdened with over aged hypocrites. I honestly believe our politics  need a revamp. Donā€™t you think present is ruled and governed by the ghosts of past. There is big difference in past and present  social values.  Donā€™t get me wrong, when i colloquially put it as older people coz you might think i am some kind of Nazi. When i say older, i meant our over-the-hill politicians, you can say they have experience and all, but right now what we need most is not experienced minds but bold minds who can accept the change happening around and those who are willing to break free from the old traditional format. The average age of our Parliament is over 60 years. How many leaders are there in our parliament who are not from a well-off and donā€™t have a criminal background. Most of our politicians and executives for that matter are sycophants. Being rhetoric and sycophancy are the trademarks of most of our statesmen. This sycophantic behaviour de...

Legacy of Balasaheb Thackeray

I hope everyone has noticed the excitement created by the death of Bala Saheb Thackeray. Its just fine if you want to pay tribute to Mr.Thackeray and call him a great visionary and all. India is a democratic country you have every right to do as you please as long as it doesn't obstruct someone else's right. But when Maharashtra govt. arrested two girls charging them, of hurting religious feelings(Section 295 (a)) and IT Act for posting anti-Thackeray comments in facebook, any man in his/her right mind would agree, they have over-stepped their boundary. What religion are they talking about, he is a political leader,whose motto was to carry off non-Maharashtriyans from Maharashtra. Actually what the girls did was, one among them posted some comment on facebook wall and the other girl liked it. Those remarks showed their anger against the "bandh"(strike) on the day of Thackeray's death. If that wasn't enough shiv sainiks vandalised one of the girl's uncle...
