The blood was oozing from the friendly Calderon Dolphins that approached the beaches of Denmark to play with men, women and children. This is happening every year like a festival. Unfortunately, the Dolphins were not aware that [...]

All this is going on to get back $20 billion (Rs 1,00,000 Cr) undisclosed money in foreign banks. Now imagine $1456 billion (Rs 72,80,000 Cr) undisclosed money of India in Swiss Banks. Don’t you think that we should be more serious than US authorities. Indian stashed money is 72 times that of US. Come on, let us demand the Prime Minister to form an exclusive ministry to recover stashed money.

Dr. V.C.Kulandaiswamy as Convener for a High Power Committee on “Up-gradation of Government and Government aided colleges into Unitary Universities” submitted his report last week. The members of the team have thoroughly studied various issues and suggested measures for improving higher education in particular to start more universities by upgrading some good colleges. However, it has not pointed out even a single point on unethical practices cultivated in education for several decades. It has not put a single point on how to clean the corrupt and completely politicized education system. I expect Padma Bhushan, IITKian, Dr. Kulandaiswamy at 81 to tell the truth and “dharma” to politicians.

Applying Trimurti concept from Hinduism to Western Business concept in isolation can not bring big change either to the organization or the society in which it operates. Instead of trying to find parallels to a small activity in Hinduism, the learned professors in West be Indian or others should try to understand the Hinduism in totality. You should not apply Hinduism concept of work ethics to produce weapons of mass destruction for huge profit.

Today 6th May 2010, I read Mr. Soutik Biswas’ report in BBC on Mumbai verdict on Kasab. The following sentences or words attracted my attention: “brings to an end the media-driven blood-lust” “critics believe they have played an exploitative, inflammatory role, feeding on and fanning jingoism simply to boost ratings” “Most people, I speak to [...]

Yesterday (13th April 2010), Dinamalar, a Tamil Newspaper reported that two villages (that are 20 kms from Madurai) have banned alcohol in their villages and fine Rs 1000 [...]

United Spirits Limited has sold more than 100 million cases in FY2010 and achieved number 2 position in the liquor production in the world. A country that offers Rs 1/Kg rice to BPL persons, it is certainly not an achievement. Rather, a shame on us! The achievement is at the cost of our students’ future and also at the cost of overall health of the people. More………..

David Coleman Headley pleaded guilty in a statement on 18th March 2010 before U.S. District Judge in Federal Court in Chicago. The Attorney General has authorized the U.S. Attorney in Chicago not to seek the death penalty against Headley. Is it right to protect a terrorist just because he is willing to share more intelligence on the terrorists. Is it not a burden to the society to maintain terrorists in Jail? Rather, why not pardon him and release? Why don’t we get the opinion and sign an agreement with the victims and their family members about the type of punishment to be awarded to the Guilty?
