Anatomy of forex reserve

Our Happiness is an illusion
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:56 GMT-0000
Money is, of course, one of the greatest source of joy and what a joy we are expressing through media that has been derived from the almighty dollar, the great object of universal devotion throughout our land ! We seem to be simply blinded by the brightness of the dollar and deafened by the roar of joy emanating out of the unprecedented level of foreign reserve.

CENTRE HAS FINALLY AWAKENED, BUT WE NEED MUCH MORE

Lack of concern about disasters and its proper management lies in the fact that even Ministers' and Secretaries' of various departments are found recently to be ignorant of many facts.

LIVING IN THE WORST OF CONDITIONS

ALMOST NO ACCESS TO THE FRUITS OF DEMOCRACY
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:30 GMT-0000
Nomadic people are landless, homeless and generally underfed with a negligible literacy rate. They are deprived of voting rights, caste certificates, ration cards and below poverty line certificates. They do not have access to land and potable water, education, and health facilities. Most of them are not even classified in Scheduled Tribes, Scheduled Castes or Socially and educationally backward classes, resulting in almost no reservation in jobs, educational institutions or in politics of this country.

EMPLOYERS COMMIT CRIMINAL BREACH OF TRUST

EVEN THE LAWS ARE AGAINST EMPLOYEES
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:24 GMT-0000
Nobody questions favours to the employers in a criminal matter that falls under section 405 of the Indian Penal Code having a provision for punishment of imprisonment up to three years, or with fine , or with both under section 406 of the Code. Such a favour is not generally shown towards the employees committing any criminal breach of trust. Its clearly a partisan approach of the Minister in this particular matter. What can one hope from this present system including the provisions of law when for the same offence an employee is liable to be punished with imprisonment of up to seven years and shall be also liable to fine under section 408 of the Code.

AMENDMENTS TO THE ANTI-DEFECTION LAW MISLEADING

A COMPREHENSIVE POLITICAL REFORM NEEDED
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:20 GMT-0000
The status of legislators in India has been changing since our independence. Earlier, they were “representatives of the people” both in words and its spirit, but now they have reduced to merely the “delegates of their parties.”

AHIMSA AND SLAUGHTER FOR HAPPINESS !

CRUELTY IS BANNED, WHY NOT KILLINGS
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:16 GMT-0000
Deriving happiness from ahimsa and slaughter is perhaps as old a practice as evolution of humankind itself. It continues despite the fact that the human civilisation considers it since at least 2500 years ago that we do not have any equitable or moral right to practice ahimsa and killings.

FARMERS ARE RESCUED FROM UNJUST INTEREST RATES

WHAT ABOUT OTHER INJUSTICES ?
System Administrator - 11-11-2007 07:08 GMT-0000
After a long battle the NABARD (Amendment) Bill got clearance from the Cabinet paving the way for disbursing loans to farmers at the interest rates of below nine per cent. It a great relief for farmers, for the banks as well as private money lenders of our country has been exploiting them for years by giving them loans at a much higher rate of interests than many other sectors including industries.
Humans and the habit of smoking

Quit Smoking in 50 (Fifty) Years

An Exclusive Approach: An article
littleprince - 24-10-2007 02:11 GMT-0000
From the title above one may perceive that this writing is to play a lexical game upon a big number of quit smoking methods available at the market for the people in need. To support this sweet sense of humor, I would say, 'Yes, it is!'; nevertheless, it will be such an unfair underestimation if I fail to confess that, basically, it is not only supposed to be a particular, strange method of quit itself, but also a realistic view over the major reason why the present narcotic overuse has come about.
Autobiography

A Study in autobiography: Mine and the Genre

there AreEndless Ways of Telling One's Story
RonPrice - 24-10-2007 02:05 GMT-0000
There are endless ways of telling one's story. For this reason poets and writers like Roger White and Bernard Shaw may be wrong to think that the passive nature of their lives disqualifies them from even attempting to write their autobiography. Roger used to say that he did not think it was possible for a biographer to make anything at all interesting out of his life. I think time will prove him wrong. He, like Shaw, thought his life was in his writing, or as he once put it, quoting Rabindranath Tagore: 'the poem not the poet.'

The fear of destruction

The Indestructible Physical World

Is neutralisation or nullification of life real threat
Gyan Pathak - 18-10-2007 09:44 GMT-0000
Is the physical world really destructible ? The question is important because we witness destruction everywhere. Then what the philosophers wants to say by indestructible?
