As children learn from there parents lets put the task on parents for example ask every mother at home not to save the vegetables in the plastic bags.... like we normally put the eatables in plastic bags and save it in fridge for future use so we...

There is nothing wrong if we use plastic bags provided we take proper care to recycle and reuse it. The present problem is because of our own littering habit as a result these bags choke drainage finally. After all do we have proper drainage...

Kingfisher is a big banner and we see this brand doing many things including lavish waste of money in various events. This all is done though it has a lot of money due. The payments to airport operators, oil companies and vendors of all imaginable items are due and its a massive due.  130 pilots have left the company and major flights have been canceled.  This is the time to stoop wasting money on calendars and start paying to all, isn't it? Do you thing they have lost it all in show off?

The Kingfisher's present situation is due to the concentration only for upper class, it is highly niche market. Low cost airlines creator Capt Gopinath always telling him to concentrate on Indian market, Low cost will really works here. when Air...

whatever may be the case, education must be a part of life and schools need to be free of cost for education.

The famous saying is that nothing comes free and that it comes free will not last longer.We should know that nothing should be offered free nor taken free.even the education should not be made free for every one.we can make it free with certain...
Kavitha Shankar  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  6 months ago
There is a need of standardization here. A small, very small amount of fee should be there so no one takes benefit of the facility. The standard of education must be good enough to lure people to admit their children to such school and shun those...

Let's keep it very simple.... Where there is passion, dedication automatically comes in. Regards, Shruth & Smith Foundation. Banshankari, Bangalore. http://www.shruthandsmithfoundation.org
Kavitha Shankar  |  Argues in support of  |  7 months ago
When there is no passion, dedication becomes difficult and then you have to stretch yourself in order to do things. Passion should come first.
Jaygopal Raghavan  |  Argues in support of  "Passionate"  |  7 months ago
According to me its the passion that comes first leading on to dedication. In simpler words, you need passion to go after something and then dedication to sustain your pursuit. To understand this further, we can get inspired by the Tom Hanks movie...

Govt Backtracks on Poverty India’s government has made yet another U-turn, this time on the issue of estimating poverty. The country’s Planning Commission had  initially filed a proposal  with the Supreme Court setting the poverty line at an income of 32 rupees (60 cents) a day in urban areas and 26 rupees for rural areas. However, after a national outcry and a challenge by the main opposition party to try to live on a bankers draft for this amount for a single day, the government backtracked and said these figures won’t be used to determine which individuals are eligible for government subsidies and welfare schemes. The government sparked public outrage and criticism of insensitivity towar...

Yes it is right. Parents must understand that the children they are going to bring up are to be looked after with good health and sufficient education. In this modern world it is not easy to bring even a single child in good position
jairaj shyam prasad  |  Argues in support of  "Against human rights"  |  7 months ago
hello Kavitha,it all depends on what context one is taking it.certainly abortion is against human rights as yet to be born baby hasn't forced or beg anybody for its being.if anybody dosent want child best way is to prevent rather than kill.

Today I was taken by surprise when I read a piece of news. There are 15 posts for peons in Rajasthan university and there are 3000 applications for the same. The thing which is surprising is the people who have aplied for the post! PHd, MBA, MPhil, BE these are the degrees these applicants hold. The reason for applying is that it is a government job and there is total security . The salary is 4700 Rs now but can go upto 7000 Rs. Do you anything to say about this

Why not? Because the CEO's are expected to do outrageous work as a top management representative - lead from the front, get his fingers soaked in dirt and muck and then to please the bosses. Look at the 2G scam and you will know why.
