Look at the above picture. What are the words that come to your mind when you think about Indian Politics? Chances are that the words mentioned in the picture are the ones you think about. The issue with Indians is that they think negatively about everything. They don't realize that Indian politics has 1 of the best value systems in the world! As they say "Beauty lies in the eyes of Beholder", we also need to look at Indian politics and politicians through a different viewpoint to see the values and morals they follow and the sacrifices they make.
In India it is believed that age is just a number. One should be young at heart. Same is believed by Indian politicians. Therefore we have people on the other side of 40 representing "youth" of India.

One of the biggest problems that India faces today is Corruption. The Indian govt acknowledges that and it has taken measures to eradicate corruption from the system. Therefore we have a PM who has absolutely no power. No power no corruption!
The Indian govt acknowledges the gender bias prevalent in the country and is working wholeheartedly to improve the condition of women. As a step forward for this process APJ Abdul Kalam was denied a second term and Pratibha patil was appointed the president of India. So what if she takes 100's of her relatives on tour with herself or her family is involved in various scams the govt is looking at the bigger picture here i.e. Women Empowerment while we worry about petty things.
One thing that is different in India from most other countries is that here elders are given due respect. It’s good to see that the same values are also followed by the politicians of India. Otherwise why would a Navin Jindal back "Khap panchayats" , who went to Supreme court for his right to hoist the national flag over his house! We may think that its all about vote bank politics but that's the difference between us and politicians. While we look for hidden motives they simply follow the values and morals.


Its always taught not to think bad even about your enemy. While we the mere mortals are not able to do that politicians not just do that they go 1 step further and help the enemy in times of need. That's why congress leaders joined hands with their enemies and helped them during the Gujarat riots!


Surprisingly our politicians also have very good knowledge about medical science. They know that genes and traits are carried forward from 1 generation to another. So we may keep thinking that its dynasty politics but the truth is that they choose the best candidate available for the job. Sadly they also have some misconceptions about it. One of them is that communalism is a communicable disease! Maybe they got confused between the similar sounding words. That why many politicians stayed away from Amitabh bachchan after he endorsed Gujarat (the state which is believed to be affected by this particular disease!).

"Atithi Devo Bhava" the literal meaning of this phrase is that Guest is just like god. Indians truly believe in this phrase. That's why whether it’s a Kasab or an Anderson all are provided with utmost comfort during there stay in India. In case the person wishes to leave he is provided with a government plane and if he decides to stay back crores are spent so that he gets the luxuries of his life. What’s more grateful is that the guests aren't required to pay from their pockets for the services. Since Indians believe in sharing the burden of others taxpayers take care of the expenses while the guests enjoy!

It’s not only the taxpayers who share the burden political parties and ministries also share the burden of each other. Otherwise why would NCP take it upon itself to educate people about the ill effects of eating sugar! That's the job of Health ministry. But in politics its all about helping each other.


Indian govt doesn't believe in geographical boundaries created by man. Therefore we have a MP who is not even an Indian! The govt also believes in giving second chance to the people. Therefore a person who has been banned for representing the country for life in a certain sport for match fixing can still become a MP and represent the country in a different way!


"B Positive". While the ordinary Indian came to know about this mantra after watching the movie "No Entry", Indian politicians were aware of it since long ago. Therefore whether its Bofors scandal, Black money or the Bhopal gas tragedy Indian govt doesn't worry much and is always positive about these issues!
There are uncountable examples to talk about when it comes to principles followed by Indian politicians. But a post about Indian politics cannot be completed without talking about the people because a democracy is government of the people, by the people, for the people.


Just like the politicians Indian people also have many good qualities. One of them is lack of unreasonable pride. Unlike others they don't believe that only they can make a good decision. Also they trust fellow Indians and respect their decisions. To show these qualities most Indians give their counterparts a chance to decide the government while they sacrifice their right to vote for some unimportant stuff like watching movies, sleep etc. Therefore it’s no surprise that the politicians that are chosen reflect the qualities the general people have.

India in 2050

Napoleon once said, “Let China sleep, for when China wakes up, she will shake the world.”

China has woken up. It is investing nearly half its GDP — that’s simply unprecedented. No other economy, at no other time in history, has invested capital on that scale. To call this “hyper”-investment is like comparing the Sun’s luminosity to a street-lamp. At the peak of its economic miracle, Japan was investing only 30% plus of its GDP — but China is doing 50%!
Over 200 years of economic experience tells us that hyper-debt-fuelled-investment creates a bubble and ends in a dreadful collapse. But China has consistently defied all such prophesies of doom. Frankly, it may not be too bizarre to believe that China could be scripting a new economic logic. Traditional theory says that investment should be “sustainable”, that is, it should be “matched” by rising consumption. But what if you pump so much capital into your economy — similar to putting extra fuel into a rocket — that you “escape” the gravitational pull of low thresholds? Especially if the bulk of your capital is spent on infrastructure (roads, railways, schools, irrigation canals, dams, hospitals, ports), as against factories which produce toys and televisions? This could be the Chinese masterstroke, the single discontinuity which could defeat 200 years of economic wisdom. Ultra-big manufacturing factories may create waste and over-capacity, but mammoth infrastructure could trigger higher productivity and the ability to create wealth. So it may be a fatal mistake to look at China’s investment spree in a single lump of factories-plus-infrastructure. Huge capital spending on life-enhancing social assets, like schools, research labs and hospitals, may actually empower people. By rapidly educating its workforce, by brilliantly executing immensely large projects, by importing expertise and dollars in a shrinking world, China could be creating a “shower of wealth and productivity” such that consumption eventually “trickles through” into the bubble.

Now look at India — that’s a classic textbook case. India’s structure is an uncanny prototype of a “promising” economy. Well above half its GDP — nearly 55 percent — is consumed by over a billion people, giving it the kind of organic strength that transformed the economies of the US, UK, Germany and Japan. Just its rural economy is made up of 800 million people spending over $425 billion. This, when agriculture’s share is declining, manufacturing is rising, and services are already more than half the GDP — again, a classically attractive mix. Like China, India saves nearly 40 percent of its GDP, but the bulk comes from households (as against China, where state-owned corporations with somewhat contrived accounting contribute more than households). India’s resource consumption has decreased for every incremental dollar of GDP since 1991 (as against China, which was using three times more resources per dollar of GDP than India). India’s economy is healthily private, with state-owned corporations accounting for less than a tenth of the output. At slightly over a trillion dollars, its stock market capitalization is about equal to its GDP — another beautifully balanced economic attribute. Its foreign reserves are over a quarter of a trillion dollars — neither uncomfortably high, nor low. Its bank credit is roughly equal to half its GDP (as opposed to over 150 percent for China), while bad loans are at an astonishingly low 2-3 percent in a world devastated by toxic financial assets (recall that China’s bad debts are precariously estimated at between 30-50 percent, the large range itself betraying a huge risk of fuzzy estimates).

The Indian Rupee largely floats against world currencies — it danced in a 25 percent band after Lehman’s collapse in 2008, without disrupting anything. A red rag is India’s weak government budget and rather high public debt at 80 percent of GDP — but here again, the highly vulnerable dollar loans are paltry by Asian standards. India is in a very sweet demographic spot, being the youngest country in the world — half a billion people are less than 25 years old, giving it a unique “demographic dividend” among peers. Ten of the world’s 30 fastest growing cities are in India — its urbanization rate, at 30 percent, is accelerating. With 350 million people displaying a reasonable proficiency in English, it’s the largest English-using country in the world. Its judicial system is robustly based on English Common Law. It’s a genuine, albeit imperfect, democracy.

Now billions more are getting somewhat rich (but not “very rich”) at a reasonable clip (but not “rapidly”) — as soon as one sub-economy becomes rich (the west coast of China or south India), the growth wave moves to the next-in-line poorer one (central regions in China or north India). Earlier, the smaller rich economies made a “one time transition” over a few decades — but China and India, because of their large numbers, could see “serial transitions” as one sub-economy after another hits higher living standards. This could make their growth stories far more elastic — with repeated “rebounds” from “slowdowns”, as one sub-economy plateaus but another begins firing on all cylinders. What’s more, this uncharted dynamic is happening simultaneously across both countries in a contiguous part of planet earth. The centre of economic gravity is shifting from some point in the Pacific Ocean to a dot near Mount Everest.

This power shift of civilizations could be the most dynamic idea of the 21st Century. Both China and India were giants in the 17th and 18th Centuries — according to economic historian Angus Maddison, together they accounted for over 50 percent of world GDP in 1600 (China had 28 percent and India, 23 percent). But 200 years of colonial domination shrunk their economies and political space on the globe. Over the last few decades, both countries are beginning to rear again — the initial swell of a giant tidal wave that made its last crest in 1770.

India in 2020

India with her varied incarnations is an old civilization and an extremely complex society. Her glorious past, natural beauty, resources, vast size and above all her unique geographical location has always given her the pride of place in the world. With the ups and downs of history it has retained its vibrancy. My vision of India 2020AD is a visionary's agenda full of hopes and resolve to work towards it.

As understanding of the historical traditions is very important in order to form a concrete futuristic vision of nation like India. India has a long history and as it is understood presently, it has covered a span of five thousand years since the period of its first known civilization. During all these times a long steam of immigrants, representing different ethnic strains and linguistic families, have merged into its population to contribute to its diversity, richness and vitality. India is probably the only civilization in the world which shows a clear continuity of its several traditions from the times of its earliest known civilization. Even today several levels of social evolution coexist in India and its composite identity has won her the of quoted cliché, unity in diversity.

A country of India's dimension is bound to have its share of problems and failings. However, the vibrant nation sets about overcoming its shortcomings, protecting its culture and enriching the material as well as cultural life of its people. So, obviously I visualize an all around growth and development of India.

The Indian society of my vision will be different from the present one. Hopefully in the 2020 AD, India will rid itself of the discriminating nature of its caste system. There will be quality in all fields for everyone. There also will be not be some unfortunate customs like dowry system, child labor as well as discrimination against women or weaker sections of the society. I hope the society itself will develop a mechanism to promote the well being of everyone without having the need of an enforcement by law all the time.

In economic field, I hope India will make great progress. Agriculture will make a rapid advance, generating enough surplus and providing food for everyone. Certainly the industrial development will have a balanced look providing work for everyone and at the same time bringing prosperity and sustained development for our natural resources. And there will be no more rise of population. The most important part of the human resource development is meaningful education for all. I hope by that time India will develop an advanced and relevant education system taking care of the needs of all the aspects of the society. I am sure India by that time will be able to take care of the health needs of all its citizen.

Often our political leaders lack 'political will' and work in a petty and partisan manner. Still I am hopeful, by that time democracy will be strengthened in India and it will give rise to true statesmen who will further take ahead my vision of India in AD 2020 and each aspect of the Directive Principles of our Constitution will be fulfilled. Elections till be peaceful and every citizen will exercise his/her franchise fearlessly. By that time no politician or political part will be allowed to exploit caste, region, language or ethnicity to advance their petty political ambitions.

For thousands of years India had to beat the burnt of foreign invasions. The fortitude of the Indians has withstood successfully all the onslaughts. Yet it is widely believed that there is no serious strategic thinking or planning in India. In this matter, India is generally inward looking country and this tradition has been shaped by our geography, history, culture and civilization. The otherwise humane and noble pacific image of India is often taken for sheepishness. We do not look ahead or plan ahead our strategic realities. We only not look ahead or plan ahead our strategic realities. We only react to threats. A few of our unfriendly countries have taken advantage of it by launching a protracted low intensity war on several fronts. I hope that by 2020 India will develop long term defensive strategies.

In some of the areas like software technology, genetic engineering and space, although India has made rapid advances, we still have to be dependent on the developed nations for several technologies. I have a vision that in coming times, India will emerge as one of the world leaders in science and technology. our development in this field will also take care of our real needs and will reach to the common people. Our developed industrial and scientific base will also be able to check brain-drain. It will also help in protecting our environment and sustaining our resource base.

India's policy has always been one of brotherhood and co-existence. yet our borders are surrounded by hostile war-hawks. Unless a nation is able to defend its borders and integrity, all other developments are of no use. We do have several proven instances of internal disturbances. be it Kashmir or the North-East we have dangers all around. I am confident that by 2020 India will be able to build an arsenal and strategy to remove all fears of external attack.

International relations are not only important for making friends but also significant for trade, security and communication. India will look forward to developing greater economic ties with Russia, South-East Asia, S. Africa, Latin American countries and also in co-operation with China and geo-economic matters. Our country will also hopefully achieve friendly ties with Pakistan.

Glory of a nation is not complete unless it does well in sports too. I am hopeful that our country will make a great advance in sports winning a number of Olympic medals and international laurels. Sports will be made popular at every stage in India.

My vision of India in 2020 AD may sound life a dreamer's agenda but given the glories posterity of India and its resilience, it can still come true. And in this task we need the right kind of leaders and solemn commitment on the part of my countrymen

India is back on a high growth trajectory

India has set an ambitious target of making 2012 the year of double digit growth even as it grapples with the twin problems of mounting deficit and rising inflation.

“India is back on a high growth trajectory,” Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said in a presentation here Monday to the Institute of International Finance, a global association created by 38 banks of leading industrialised countries in 1983 in response to the international debt crisis of the early 1980s.

Mr. Mukherjee is here to lead a high-powered team of policymakers including Commerce Minister Anand Sharma and Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia at the India-U.S. CEOs Forum Tuesday.

He will also have a separate bilateral meeting with US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner Tuesday.

Noting that India had not remained unaffected by the global financial crisis, Mukherjee said after four consecutive years of 9 percent plus growth, the Indian economy had slowed down to 6.7 percent in fiscal 2008-09.

But it had bounced back to 7.4 percent growth in 2009-10 and was expected to register 8.5 percent in 2010-11, he said for once agreeing with the International Monetary Fund prediction of 8.8 percent growth.

As two thirds of Indian exports went to developing countries, the Finance Minister said he had to concentrate on generating domestic demand to put the country back on the growth road after the global recession that hit advanced economies hard.

While India is expected to register a growth of 9 percent in 2011-12, “My target is to make it a year of double digit growth,” he said.

With the world back on the road to recovery thanks to stimulus and other measures agreed to by the group of 20 leading economies, the question was at what point of time should there be a total exit policy, Mr. Mukherjee said.

His prescription made to the G-20 finance ministers ahead of this week’s Toronto summit was that all countries will not take fiscal consolidation at a time and this should be staggered, the minister said.

India had to start the fiscal consolidation as fiscal deficit had risen from 3 percent to 6.8 percent in 2008-09, he said describing inflation as the second major challenge before the country.

Noting that India would require a huge investment of about $600 billion in the next few years in the infrastructure sector, Mr. Mukherjee said the inflow of foreign direct investment had not been disturbed despite the financial crisis.

“Confidence in the Indian economy and its potential is well recognised and our private sector is very vibrant and dynamic,” he said noting that the younger generation of the business leadership had no baggage of the past. “They have emerged as the global citizens and global players.”

World Environment Day 2010: Challenge of the Environment

London, England - "We are the product of 14 1/2 billion years of evolution, but the next 14 1/2 years will prove if we are viable as a species"' stated Lawrence Bloom to add a sense of perspective to the World Environment Day 2010 commemoration in London on June 4.

Chair of the UN Environment Programme for Green Economy Initiative and World Economic Forum, Davos for Global Agenda Council on Urban Development, Bloom added that he came out of retirement because of a dream that woke him up at 3:23 in the morning, of his great great grandchildren asking him, "What did you do to protect our environment?" (see below) He concluded emphasizing that we are suffering from a 'crisis of values' and that we had lost our sense of interconnectedness to each other and the world around us.

Murad Qureshi AM commented that the competing models of economic and political theory that had inspired large sections of society in the past are now all being challenged in an unprecedented manner. This included environmentalism based on neo-classical economics. He commented that in his current role as Vice Chair of the London Assembly Environment Committee he was concerned that poor air quality in London was reducing life expectancy while noise and odor pollution were significant problems for areas of the wider city. David Fairbank explained a very practical project of building sustainable communities around waste management, energy generation and low cost housing.

Robin Marsh began by quoting a section of the biography of the Founder of Universal Peace Federation regarding the interconnectedness of the environment with humanity:

Spending time in the forest cleanses the mind. The sound of leaves rustling in the wind, the sound of the wind blowing through the reeds, the sound of frogs croaking in the ponds: All you can hear are the sounds of nature; no extraneous thoughts enter the mind. If you empty your mind and receive nature into your entire being, there is no separation between you and nature. Nature comes into you, and you become completely one with nature. In the moment that the boundary between you and nature disappears, you feel a profound sense of joy.

Then nature becomes you, and you become nature. I have always treasured such experiences in my life. Even now, I close my eyes and enter a state in which I am one with nature. Some refer to this as anātman, or “not-self,” but to me it is more than that, because nature enters and settles into the place that has been made empty. While in that state, I listen to the sounds that nature hands to me—the sounds of the pine trees, the sounds of the bugs—and we become friends. I could go to a village and know, without meeting anyone, the disposition of the minds of the people living there. I would go into the meadow of the village and spend the night there, then listen to what the crops in the fields would tell me. I could see whether the crops were sad or happy and that would tell me the kind of people who lived there.

Even the smallest grain of sand contains the principles of the world, and even a speck of dust floating in the air contains the harmony of the universe. Everything around us was given birth through a combination of forces so complex we cannot even imagine it. These forces are closely related to each other. Nothing in the universe was conceived outside the heart of God. The movement of just one leaf holds within it the breathing of the universe. From childhood, I have had a gift of being able to resonate with the sounds of nature as I roam around the hills and meadows. Nature creates a single harmony and produces a sound that is magnificent and beautiful. No one tries to show off and no one is ignored; there is just a supreme harmony. Whenever I found myself in difficulty, nature comforted me; whenever I collapsed in despair, it raised me back up.

Father Sun Myung Moon, from the biography "As a Peace-Loving Global Citizen"

From Lawrence Bloom's talk:


It's 3:23 in the morning
and I'm awake
because my great-great-grandchildren
won't let me sleep.
My great-great-grandchildren
ask me in dreams
what did you do while the planet was plundered?
what did you do when the earth was unraveling?

He added: “We are faced with the most elegant challenge the universe could throw at humankind. Overcoming the problem of the environment relies on our understanding of our interconnectedness as a race and with the world that supports us. As world leaders search for creative solutions to restore global equilibrium, the opportunity for recognizing the importance of both human and environmental capital has perhaps never been so possible or achievable’’

The World Environment Day stimulates awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and public action. It has been commemorated on June 5 every year since its establishment by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. The World Environment Day is hosted in a different city with a different theme each year. This year, Pittsburgh is the North American host city and Rwanda the host country. This year's theme is "Many Species, One Planet, One Future," reflecting the urgent need to conserve the dwindling biodiversity of life on our planet.

Attorney Generals of USA

Attorney General (AG) Jane Ansah risks being in contempt of court in the case in which Malawi’s former ambassador to Japan Dr John Chikago sued the government for unlawful dismissal.

This comes after the Industrial Relations Court overturned the AG’s request to set aside an earlier judgment which the court ordered the government to pay Chikago about MK4m as terminal benefits.

Chikago sued the government for unfair and unlawful termination of employment, seeking damages for breach of contract and unfair labor practices.

However, the state through the AG asked the court to set aside a consent judgment made in September last year arguing that the contract was not unlawfully terminated and that the circumstances of the case was complex.

“What it remains now is the consent judgment that would give us power to enforce government to settle the money ordered by the court,” Chikago said.

Chikago said this was the sixth time for the court to reject the request by the AG.

“If the court made its decision and government does not want to respect it, what does the government want? I didn’t employ judges at the court but it was government that employed them there. Why they do not respect them,” queried Chikago.

He said the AG risks being convicted if she continues ignoring court’s ruling. The former ambassador accused government for disrespecting the judiciary in the country.

“In fact what I can see now is that government is taking court as a playing ground and this is a trick of government that if someone wins the case they appeal against it, they just to confuse the applicant,” he said.

Government deployed Dr Chikago to Japan as a diplomat in January 2002 and was recalled in 2005 before finishing his three-year contract which he signed in September 2003.

Some civil society activists in the country have been accused government for disrespecting judiciary and human rights issues.

Search Engine Optimization

The base of a good content is a thorough research done by the writer. Of the total time, one must devote 90% time in research and 10% time in writing. The purpose and motive of the writing should be clear to you before you start writing.

Generally, the main idea of writing content is for it to be able to provide useful information for visitors in your site. You are primarily writing for the readers, the human visitors of your site, and about the products and services that you have to offer. Secondary to that idea is to provide the search engines information so they could properly and accurately index your site according to its proper category.

One thing you could do to achieve that is to utilize emotional appeal to the reader. Try to integrate personal articles like "you", "we", and "us" more often; try to get your visitors as involved as possible. Avoid being too passive as it would prevent you from establishing a connection or a relationship with your target reader.
There are many offering web site content writing services from India. And they're easily accessible over the internet. However, with such a wide range of web content writing services available in India, it's often difficult to decide which web site content writing service is the best and most suited to your needs.

A well-structured web site will have clear hierarchy which will define as to how the contents will grow in future. I have come across instances where web site owners ask a couple of hundred contents to be written in 3 months or so. According to me, this amounts to committing yourself too much in advance.

Ask any content writer, he or she will show you the correct picture. However, the crux is that if you want to be a content writer, you should be strong in research. Research is the base of any content writing and it is said that content writing involves, 10% actual writing time and 90% research.

SEO content writing is the new term which means, writing a highly optimized and search engine friendly content. So that major search engines catch those keywords and place your website among the top list. Talking about content writing's future prospect, then it won't be wrong to say that the future is very bright.
Having articles that are poor in quality is never a good idea, and while you may save money on outsourcing the content writing to someone from another country initially, you're much more likely to lose potential business due to the poor web content writing you'll receive.

The next tip is that content writing should be done with clarity and brevity. While writing just asks a question to yourself that does your article make sense? Also keep a check that you're not using complex and arcane terms.

Relevant content always contribute to your business and attracts more and more customers. As we know the fact that the traffic is generated from targeted content which is dependent on the chosen set of relevant keyword and key phrases.
Hence, every successful content writer should know when to quit and begin writing. And if you're an amateur to content writing then make a point to read more and try to do extensive research

How to use Contact Lenses ?

The use of contact lenses (soft lenses) is increasingly becoming the trend did not know the age limit. Users will increasingly numerous and increasingly young age.

American Lawyers

The Virginia man who has been stuck in Egypt for the past six weeks after his name was placed on a U.S. no-fly list has been living off fast food and staying in a cheap hotel.

Yahya Wehelie, 26, said he spent 18 months studying in Yemen. But on a return trip to the U.S. on May 5, authorities barred him and his brother Yusuf from boarding a flight to New York.

FBI agents in Egypt told Wehelie that his name was on the no-fly list because of people he had met in Yemen. He was also told that he was prohibited from boarding a U.S. airline or entering American airspace. His passport was canceled and a new one was issued only for travel in the U.S., which expires on Sept. 12.

While his brother was eventually released, Wehelie was ordered to stay behind. He said the U.S. Embassy is paying for his $16 a night hotel room, which he’ll have to eventually pay back. He has also been given coupons to eat at U.S. fast food chains.

“I can’t even eat at Hardees anymore. I ate everything they had there for like two weeks straight,” Wehelie said. Now, the lanky young man said he’s moved on to pizza. But the fast-food diet has left him feeling unhealthy.

Wehelie, a Muslim, was born in Fairfax, Va., to Somali parents. He said he had no dealings with terrorist organizations in Yemen and doesn’t consider himself particularly religious.

“It’s amazing how the U.S. government can do something like this,” said Wehelie, who spoke in American-accented English and was dressed in baggy basketball shorts and a white T-shirt. “My home is America, and I don’t know why I can’t go back there.”

FBI spokesman Paul Bresson said that the bureau does not comment on whether a specific person is on a watch list. But he did note several recent high-profile terror plots, including the failed Christmas Day jetliner bombing, as reason to remain cautious.

Wehelie’s family said he was not physically abused but has undergone severe psychological pressure and was not allowed to speak to the American lawyer they had hired.

Wehelie just wants to go home. And he doesn’t care how.

“Put me … in an airplane with a bunch of U.S. marshals or whatever, in handcuffs,” he told the FBI. “Just get me back home.”
