A REAL STORY _THINK YOUTHS
The day was bright.The morning air felt good clean and fresh.The birds were chirping in the row of trees that ran along the gravel way.
"Ah! a perfect morning."
I was wondering on the fresh atmosphere when he shrieked and promulgated throughout the house that 'I AM AWAKE'. She left the utensils as it is and rushed to him with a bottle of milk.Of-course she was awake since dawn so that she could complete her chores before her little one ends his cruise of sleep.
She held him high up from the cradle and started amusing him until he stopped crying.Meanwhile she removed his diaper,showed him the sparrow feeding left-overs and then took him for a bath.She dipped her finger in bathtub so as to test the warmness and in that she burned her finger.(Of course mothers are always solicitous about their child's health). After a little while with much noise and cry,she managed to give him a bath.She enclosed him in a soft towel.His moist little fingers were trying to reach her nose and with a little effort he caught it and smiled.She too joined him in his clouds of innocence and happiness.She enjoyed adorning him though he was spruce-less.After having a 'kajal' in his eyes,she made him busy in his colorful toys and was again ready to face the kitchen mess.The little one cried and again she accompanied him.
"Oh! my God.What a hectic!"."Mothers, you people are great".
I was pondering at my wife's predicament when I heard from Mrs Mehra's house,"Get your hands away from this! Can't you keep yourself aside in a niche?" Soon Mrs.Mehra emerged from the house with her eyelids wet and with a lot of disgrace she sat on the rock porch.Mean-while his son,a software engineer emerged with his wife.He called a taxi and soon he left.Mrs.Mehra sat gazing at the yellow taxi up to the instant it was visible.She broke into tears,her grief knew no bound and she started weeping overheartedly.
My wife rushed to soothe her.She managed to take Mrs.Mehra inside,where Mrs.Mehra told her the complete story.She told her that her son always spurned her and yelled at her due to her old age follies and that now he had left her alone to die.
My wife soon returned home.She stood silent at one corner gazing at our child with her eyes flooded.Tears came from her eyes which asked the little one, "Would you also do the same?"

Balanced development
sir,
it was good to see that the Forbes list listed two Indians among the top ten billionaries of the world.(the hitavada,dated 11 march).but at the same time the news according to Transparency international(2011) that four out of ten hungry people of the world are found in India,embarrassed me.why the Indian society shows a lopsided development?
we Indians of course would have stated innumerable reasons for that ranging from food security to food politics.but upto now no one has initiated practical steps to minimise this problem.our politicians are busy in performing scam after scam.providing food to the needy and reaching out to the poor is a Sisyphean task for the government itself.at such a juncture our intellectual giants should come forward along with our multibillionaries to provide a practical solution to this problem.moreover those at the helm in administration should evolve a strategy that every Indian gets a meal a day,after that they can think of the development projects in which most of the money goes in the wrong hands.

sir,
today educational institutions are nothing more than a real estate business.India would be the largest job producer economy by 2050.the main hurdle in overall development as preferred by our policy makers is the low quality of education provided by our institutions.
the technical institutions are a pioneer of economic development.but these pillars are badly shaken due to the reasons ranging from political dominance in educational sector to monopoly of private institutions.the government instead of wasting efforts to make these institutions economically viable should strive to make these institutions educationally viable because quality counts and not quantity.

Did they improve?
sir,
the conditions of the Indian women in the society were worse far years ago.some may debate it by saying that the conditions are all right now.it is true that the conditions are getting right but it is restricted only upto the society,as far as governance is considered,it shows the same scenario.after Independance we have seen a lady as a president almost after more than 60 long years.
talking of the local governance at the grass root level ,the women which are capable of doing something are not represented and the women which are represented are not capable of doing anything.this is mainly due to our male dominated society.the situation of the Indian women is same as it was before,the introduction of reservation only put curtains over it. a paradigm shift is needed so as to improve condition of the Indian women.

Need to tame inflation
sir,
this refers to the editorial 'agri reform to tame inflation'{ET,jan13}.the author has rightly stated that agri-reform is essential to surface problem of food inflation.besides higher rates and less spending could tackle food inflation.moreover India can adopt intensive techniques in production which is basically practised in Japan and USA.this would ultimately minimize capital input keeping the same labour force.moreover the production of economic goods would act as a silver lining in increasing the agricultural exports.the co-operation of public and private sector is a key factor in escaping the food wage spiral.

assure them first
sir,
as we know that the income tax department decided to raise taxes by means of goods and services tax,etc. the raising of tax collection target by 20,000 crore is an indicator of economic growth.though the raising of taxes such as goods and services tax put an extra burden on the common man,he is proud.the government is trying to raise the tax collection is indeed good for our economy but it should assure the common man that the money raised would be adhoc for development works.moreover the government should take into account that the raised taxes add colours to the Indian economy rather than filling the pockets of the system.

GIVE THEM PRIORITY
sir,
As we know India is a country of villages where 72% live in rural
areas and the rest in urban areas but in case of job opportunities the
rural scenario is very poor.The development of urban areas is worth
praising.but at the same time villages are showing a poor
development.Agriculture forms the backbone of our economy.Yet the
development in villages is nothing but impressive.the job opportunities
in villages is very poor.this results into migration of a large
villagers into the urban areas.it has much contributed towards slums
and poverty.as the health facilities are limited in urban areas the
urban poor are falling prey to diseases.all these resulted into 134th
rank of India in HDI.
The villagers are striving hard for emerging from the dark
shadows of poverty but the government lights are dim there and hence
they are forced to live in the dark.The induction of MGREGS is a
welcoming step in this direction but there are still many loopholes as
far as accountability and proper functioning are concerned.If India
wants to be developed then priority should be given to villages
because"the real India lies in villages" as said by Mahatma Gandhi.

SERVE THEM FIRST
sir,
.The NHAI's plan is to built nine big ticket highways covering 500kms
worth a budget of 5000crore or more so as to increase highway
standards.of course the roads are life line for any development works and
hence they must be developed.but what about rural roads.
the PMGSY scheme was implemented in rural areas in the year 2000.but
because of poor accountability the transport system is worse which
discourages private entrepreneurship and investment.it results into
imbalance in development.so rather investing money in increasing the
standards of highways the government should develop basic transport
system for proper rural development.

INDIA MUST MAKE A BID
sir,
with reference to the article India must make a bid for UN' in your esteemed daily hitavada dated nov7 in which the writer has mentioned almost all of Indian strengths. but what is the use in mentioning these qualities and hiding disqualities.the writer has given Indian ranks in different fields.let me tell you some more Indian ranks.
as per the 2009-10 reports India ranked 119th in HDI.it ranked 84th most corrupt country of the world,139th in the Gender Development Index.moreover it ranked 88th among 135 countries in the human poverty index.it ranked 65th in the global hunger index.contrary to this it ranked 1 in diabetes and 2 in population.showing your qualities and hiding your faults is a retrograde step towards development.if weaknesses are brought on screen rather than putting curtain, it would lead steps towards eliminating them and hence development. but if efforts are made to hide weaknesses then it would ultimately lead to a poor show of development and that is what is happening in the Indian society.
so rather putting our nation's faults in dark we should try to bring them on screen.because truth can be hidden but cannot be extinguished'.

SEPARATION NOT A SOLUTION
sir,
as we know that after 10 years of its separation (from Bihar),
Jharkhand is still backward.
The Telangana and Kashmiri separatarists should take into consideration
that separation from a country or state is not a factor for
development,but integration and unity is a sure factor for development.so
rather making pieces,sharing a loaf of bread is more convenient.

PEAK SEASON
sir,
as we know that the automobile sector in India is at its highest point of profit.because of the absence of public sector , the private entrepreneurs as well as the foreign companies are sharing a big chunk of profits.
hence it is the time when the government can hit the ground running by making appropriate investments in this peak season.

THE CORRUPTS
sir,
as we all are aware of the recent Adarsh housing scam in which the congress government has been blamed by the BJP on grounds of corruption.the congress government immediately removed former CM Ashok Chavan.but the conditions were set from pan to fire when the 2G spectrum came on screen.
the conditions were quickly handled and the Congress government dismissed A.raja.yet the BJP assaulted the Congress for these corrupt practices.but recently when it came to the BJP over Karnataka C.M. Yeddurappa in a land scam,it is quiet.this shows that 'the pot was calling the kettle black'.
sir, this refers to the article 'anthem shouldn't be a caller tune'in your esteemed daily Hitavada dated nov18,that the DoT has directed not to offer national anthem as a caller tune.
I totally agree with the decision made by DoT,because it is not one's own bhajan or mantra,nor it is a prayer or dua,it is our national anthem which should be treated with awe and respect.
