some one sent me this. author unknown - but surely deserving of huge respects. इस देश की समस्या ये है की हर कोई इंसान बटा हुआ है | अगर आप कांग्रेस की बुराई करते हैं तो आप बीजेपी के चमचे हैं... आप बीजेपी की बुराई करतें है तो कांग्रेसी कुत्ते.... अगर आप हिंदू की बात करते हैं तो आप हिन्दुवादी हो जाते हैं.... और मुस्लिम के लिए तो मुस्लिमवादी... और अगर दोनों की बात करदी..तो कहा जाता है ,'आ गया साला सेकुलर की औलाद'...... कभी पार्टी से जोड़ देते हैं और कभी धर्म से... कभी इंसान को इंसान से जोड़ कर देखो..जिंदगी बदल जायगी...देश तो कोई बड़ी बात ही नहीं है....

Vinoy Scaria James  |  Answered  |  2 months ago
Thanks Sir for the post. It is timely one and good one for us Indians to introspect. For me the striking facts are embellished in the statement - 'there are 46 procedures to be undertaken to enforce a contract in India, the time taken to enforce...

Thanks Mr. Murthy for sharing this very useful, but frightening, information.  Indeed, "India is shining"!  We still imagine. at this pace, we are dreaming to become super-power in 2020.  Those who prepared Vision-2020 document should re-think on the...

hi everyone! a lot of 'talk' is spilled by the govt on FDI requirement for development. but, serious attempt seems to be lacking to bring in FDI where huge investment is needed [ like petrochemical, power, logistics industries] Instead, retail is being targeted: here is a quote from the Financial Express dated 21st sep.2012. ' Indian-origin Labour MP Keith Vaz has advised Indian legislators to be careful while handling the issue of FDI in retail, cautioning that a major dominance by super markets may not be in the interest of common man. Vaz, Chairman of the Britain's Home Affairs Committee, said though he was not in a position to advise Indian MPs but he would still say, 'please be careful...
