Recession, and 
the Way Out

The current economic meltdown, one of the worst in the last 60 years or so, is bound to have many repercussions. It has already started telling on the job market and thousands of people are getting laid off or facing reduction in wages.
The next few years will be tough on new blokes entering the job market. Those who have spent money for seeking admissions for various courses, especially in the technology and finance sectors, will face the crunch when they start getting out of the protected environment of academic life. Students passing out this year and next are going to be severely hit.
One of the things that these students should think of now is to pursue higher studies. This is the best time to be in a university acquiring additional qualifications, knowledge and skills. Universities and institutes also should be preparing to provide such opportunities and gearing up for such a scenario.
This would be mutually advantageous for the student community as well as the academic institutions. Care should be taken to see that the element of exploitation is taken away when the financial angle of education is taken into account. When quantity (of students seeking academic pursuits) increases the centres of learning should take care that the quality does not suffer.
The near and long term future of the global economy will depend on their efforts.

Price Hike... of Petrol,Diesel n Gas.. Justified ?

This is the talk and concern of the entire nation...



There has been a Drastic price rise in the Prices of Fuels like Petrol, Diesel and The most common Gas Cylinder... !!!



IS it justified..



Has it become inevitable to rise the prices ?



Also consider the fact that the Govt's failed to contain Inflation rate which's settin an All TIme/ High Every Week.. !!!



And Rise in Such Fuels Prices would certainly mean a Rise on Each and Every Commodity as They all Depend on Transport...



So should we expect the Inflation to Cross all D limits ? Or is it tat Gov is Helples concerning the Fact That the World Oil Prices and Other prices too are on an all time high and so...



Even we are hit by it.. !!!



Do consider the fact that the Govt has also provided us wid the one of the Heighest Growth rates in the World and They Give the explanation of Price hike as to Reduce the Burden on Coming Generations as India's cannot Fulfill the Entire Fuel Demand by itself.. !!!

~~Cheers~~

Is ambani's new house on legal property

The man who almost stalled Mukesh Ambani’s $2-billion dream home by alleging that it stands on wakf land has been transferred by the Maharashtra government.

Hearing a petition seeking restoration of the plot to the Maharashtra State Board of Wakf, the Supreme Court had refused on Thursday to intervene in the matter pending before Bombay High Court.

The next morning, the board’s chief executive officer, A.R. Shaikh, was transferred. The 27-storey building — tagged the world’s most expensive home — is coming up on a plot that was originally wakf property but it was sold to Ambani.

The wakf board headed by Shaikh had alleged last year that the sale of the land in 2002 was illegal. An inquiry was instituted against it’s then chairman, M.A. Aziz, who was accused of selling the property at Rs 21 crore, much below the market rate of Rs 400 crore, without the board’s permission.

Five years later, in October 2007, the high court stayed a Maharashtra government’s decision to cancel sale of the land. The government had held that the 4,500-square-metre plot was wakf property and could not be sold.Only seven storeys of Ambani’s house had been completed then.

Today, the building, named Antilla, is 17 storeys high and construction of the remaining 10 is on at full swing. “The high court order had not given any instruction for a stay on Antilla’s ongoing construction,” a wakf board trustee said.

Shaikh was scheduled to file an application in the high court seeking a stay on the construction this week. “I am a government officer. I will comply with the government order.

If the government does not want me, I will not stay here,” Shaikh told The Telegraph today. He had joined the wakf board on deputation from the rural development department.

A deputation is usually for three years, but in Shaikh’s case, it has lasted one and a half.

Reservation.... do we care??

Even beofre i write anything about the SC order for 27% reservation to OBCs in universities, i can't help but think that i don't care anymore. The reservation issue has been irritating and frustrating me for so long that now when i hear something about it, all i say is ... "to hell with it!!".

Is there a point talking about this anymore? nobody is listening, nobody is bothered. When the Supreme Court is dumb enough not to realize the gravity of this judgement, how can one expect politicians to!!

All said and done, it is a democracy. Ah, our beloved democracy. The only fucking problem is that indian majority is invariably wrong!! What about these SCs backing Mayawati and not realizing that they haven't gained shit during her reign apart from a dozen Ambedkar statues on the street crossings and parks. Even Mulayam singh appears an angel in comparison and we all know what a worthless soul he is.

When will we get any wiser? its not politicians playing the vote bank politics, its us who let them take us for a ride. When everyone and their aunts know that our leaders are backing reservation for votes and not for upliftment of the backwards, then why not vote them out? Oh, i forgot, we will vote them out. We always do. And then what? The alternative any better? I see myself writing the same shit about the next govt and then the next one and so on so forth.....

It doesn't end, ever. Its the supreme constant. The source of all things evil. Yet,central to everything. May be "govt" is the real god. Or may be the tangible form of god. But i'm glad atleast we are practising Polytheism. Makes us feel different and gives us a choice to decide whom we should let fuck us over.

I Can't Resist

images

Every where I go, I can find discussion about Senator Obama and Senator Clinton.

I don't know why people are so much interested in this US elections. They have nothing to do with the elections as they are not Americans nor they stay in America.

No body seems to be caring about or talking about UK politics especially in my graduate centre.

Now I am sick of it and I can't resist anymore.

In my graduate centre when ever I go, there will be discussion over this topic.

I feel that its will be on forever.

What I am even more tired of is media. They just need a topic to go on with.

This media daily comes up with some polls most often which mostly fails and some times it works.

But mostly these opinion polls are reversed on the next day. Its like weather of UK, which can't be predicted especially in these months.

They earlier suggested Rudy Giuliani as the republican candidate but unfortunately he vanished from the race.

They even suggested Senator Clinton as Democratic candidates and next President of US. But I think she will be vanishing from the seen very soon.

I need a break!!

So guys from Engineering graduate centre of University of Nottingham.

Gimme a break!!

I can't believe I have to go through this discussion for another 10 months.

No way.....

Change We Can Believe In

t1home_obama_cnn

Topic of this post speaks about the content of the post. Yes, you have thought it very correctly. This post is all about the person who is rocking America and has become talk of the world. Its none other than Senator Barack Obama.

This is the second post on him in my blog and may be more will be following about him in the upcoming weeks.

I am delighted to know that Senator has 10 consecutive wins in his bag and now he managed to get 1319 delegates.

Now Senator Obama is surrounded by "Plagiarism".

This was nice move by his rivals. Till now Senator Obama looking very fresh, uncorrupted, honest and a candidate with new ideas. But now he is caught doing plagiarism.

So, will this plagiarism strict him and make him infamous among masses???

Senator Obama, might have fought a lot of legal battles but this time he can't go on for legal battles.

Senator Obama had created a high standards for himself and this high standards are set by his strong speech.

Everyone liked and admired him because of his strong and extremely powerful speech.

I was really attracted by his strong and powerful speech.

But it was really shocking to find that these words and strong speech are not his very own, rather he has borrowed from some one else.

And Senator Obama has denied these charges and said as "silly".

Anyway this doesn't shock a bit my support to Senator Obama. If I am an American and has right to vote I will still be voting for Senator Obama.

The thing still people in America see him as same.

Will this "Plagiarism"be a big issue and will restrict Senator Obama and make him infamous.

In 1990, he was named as "first black president in Harvard Law school over 140 years of history"

And now can he be named as "first black president of United States of America"

Lets wait and see.....

"I'm in. And I'm in to win."

I am not sure weather you all have got what this post is about.But probably you all have concluded rightly after seeing the picture.

This post is about the Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Few months back I was also one of the supporter of her but the strong and powerful speech of roped me to his side.

For those who have not got the title of the post till now, this was her announcement when she entered the race for the next American president.

Clinton was the first woman to be racing for the American president. She was believed to be potential candidate for long. She is has owned her own website in early 2007 to reach the people during her campaign for election.

Clinton was able to attract most of the sponsers and able to raise fund so early that she has created a record. But she was left behind by Senator Obama in upcoming months.

In early few polls she was leading ahead leaving behind other candidates but as the poll was aheading she started to lose and now she is having

This situation has aroused due to her poor performance in debates and clearing the way for Senator Obama. This showed that she is not strong enough.

hillary

But she always tried her level best to show Senator Obama supporters about his inexperience. She has tried to demoralize Senator Obama by bringing the issue of plagiarism.

She has lots of experience over her life. She was already " First lady" and has been Senator for New York.

This is a political game and I have never underestimated Senator Clinton. And I hope no body will ever underestimate her till end.

If she has managed to become President then she may have an efficient person to guide her as Mr. Bill Clinton is always backing her.

If she wins then Is this victory for Herself or for surname Clinton.

One Man Got ALL The Attention

images

I felt that I should write about, one man who made run for the Presidential candidate in United States of America, excitement and left every one with confused state weather Senator Clinton have a chance to win.

Yes, its none other than Senator

"BARACK OBAMA"

It seems that no one can stop Senator Barack Obama becoming the next President of United States.

I learnt from the news source, that no one has created such an excitement since President Kennedy in 1960.

I believe he has strong appeal and has an ability to attract most of the crowd towards him. He is young and has an dynamic personality. He has some magnetism in his personality.

But it will be hypothetical and too early to say he can't be stopped from becoming the next President. This Tuesday may change the tide so we have to wait one more day to know the result.

No body ever had any idea Senator Obama to be tough competitor for the race and make it so exiting, when he has joined the race for the democrats Presidential candidate.

At the beginning as thought Senator Clinton was the front runner. she had every thing, she had money from her long queue of sponsors, she is already famous not only in US but globally, she has professional experience and atlast she has an powerful power to backup and guide " Mr. Bill Clinton".

Then why, tide changed with time and she is trailing in the race for the Presidential candidate.

The main reason for her to be fallen behind is her lack to capture the imagination of public, which is the major factor.

Senator Barack Obama has managed to capture the imagination of public and it is believed that he has more money from his sponsors than Senator Clinton. And few other factors made him to achieve most of the supports from the delegates.

But still ball can be in Senator Clinton's court since she can get support from "super delegates"

So who will get the support from super delegates. But I hope super delegates won't go against the popularity.

Its very tough for Senator Obama to sit rest just becoming the Candidate for democrat's. The next factor is Republican candidate Senator McCain.

Senator McCain has many admirer. Its is believed that he has the qualities of a perfect President. He is very courageous and intelligent. He was prisoner of war in Vietnam. And moreover his stand on war is unlike President Bush.

Senator McCain is believed to be more qualified than Senator Obama in terms of experience.

But Senator Obama's campaign is more strong and powerful. His campaign is more timely. Senator Obama attracts the voters with the issues related to new generation rather than talking going with issues related to older generations which other campaigners do.

If Senator Obama, wins then he will be the first black to contest for WHITE HOUSE.

WILL SENATOR "BARACK OBAMA" HAS THE FUTURE OF AMERICA WITH HIM??????

I was watching news in Sky news channel then a news followed with images displaying fireworks, street parties and rejoice, the atmosphere seemed to be very exciting and enjoying. Then I noted that Kosova got independence from Serbia.

Now after lots of parties there many challenges lies with the Independent Kosova. since economy of Kosova is depressed and it is estimated that 40% of unemployment is running and more over half of the population is below poverty line.



Kosova will adopt its first constitution after a transition period of 120 days. It has not yet got full Independence, Kosova will have to undergo a 120 days transition period.



Kosova is the 46th European nation. It need to work hard to make a developed nation. They have to make to attract more financial investment since they are financial unstable.



So dear readers that's all I know.



I wrote this post from what I saw and heard in news channels.



So that much stuff about kosova I can recall. I will write on kosova again during weekends with full detail after going through sources since I am busy during weekdays with studies.

indian economy

still a bubble........

its not sustainable with the rocketing stock market we cant say that we are at the periphery of attaining sustainable devlopment . some policies are going haywire.....

1) SEZ- no rehablitation plan for the farmers and result andigram and singur.

2) 10,000 farmers committed suicide no special emphasis on bringing agriculture to the fore.

3) 27 % still below poverty line , education system not productive enough .and many more things still the hope is there that things would improve .

One most important things we should look towards a balanced devlopment keeping environment also in the scheme of things..............

I think its only Share Market which is not sustainable.While the growth story of India as a whole will remain pretty buoyant in long term. Due to rapid urbanisation and growing number of Middleclass the economy is consumption driven instead of investment driven.

If you see the current scenario then you can say that the fundamentals are good enough to carry ahead and maintain the growth till near future.At the most US recession and weak global consumption can affect export industry.Where as the income disparity among different sections of Indian society is concerned, that has to be taken care of.

Subhas Chandra Bose - Part 1

Subhas Chandra Bose is my favourite leader and admiration. You can see a series of topics on him from today.

Subhas Chandra Bose is known as Netaji. He is one of the prominent and highly respected leaders during the independence movement in India.

Netaji had conflict with Mahatma Gandhi over the ideology. They both differ in ideology to get independence from British raj. Because of this conflict he has resigned from the post president of Indian national congress. Netaji always advocated violence as a means to achieve independence.
After resigning from Indian national congress, he established All India Forward Bloc. He believed that with the establishment of forward bloc, India will full and complete independence at the earliest. British authorities sent him to prison for 11 times.

He saw Second World War as an opportunity to attack British. He thought this may be weakness for British authorities. With the outbreak of world war he flew to Germany, Japan and Soviet Union to gather alliance to attack Britishers in India. With the help of Japanese he formed Indian National Army (INA) against British. INA mostly comprised the war prisoners and plantation workers from Malaysia, Singapore and other Southeast Asia.

His views on politics and his alliance with Nazi’s to oppose British have raised many arguments among many historians and politicians. It is believed that he died in 1945 but still there is many speculations about his death.
