Rohit Thakur  |  Added idea  "I dont like to live in High rise buildings. I agree with Krishna view."  |  2 years ago
What Vinoth said is related to Big cities like DEL/MUM/BANG/CAL. only. Other parts of india doesn't need such structures. U can not comapre the feelings between VILA & Building. High rise building are good only for short stay. but to live...
Vinoth  |  Supported idea  "Lower utility costs "  |  2 years ago
More advantage of  high rise building is circulation of  fresh air, reduce the noise, feel the ambiance of whole city or sea view , panoramic view of city.

1 lack of zeal
2 Lack of technicians

Iñigo Ortiz Monasterio  |  Added idea  "Because in India the human scale is more important. Skyscrapers "  |  2 years ago
The human scale is more important and skyscrapers dehumanize life and architecture. You don`t need to participate in a meaningless race to be the bigest, the strongest or the tallest.
Siby S Babu  |  Supported idea  "Lack of technicians "  |  2 years ago
dear madam , i dont think that there is lack of technicians in india to implement a skyscraper but the real concern is about the economy, and if there also the technic to do the work is not here in india, at ths time india cant afford also.

Saibal Ray  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  2 years ago
Yes, but certainly not in a earth-quake/ cyclone prone area...and certainly not where the taps go dry during summer and the power goes off frequently without notice.
Deepak k  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
living in high rise building will not bring the feel of a life..as a human being we are very much inter related and depended to nature...so we should be closer to nature in all aspects which will definitely feed us for a healthy and peaceful life
Pragya Kothari  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
This is a good question. My answer is no. I wouldn't like to live in skyscrapers. To some extent it looks very fashionable fascinating to live at hundred meters above sea level but this is a very risky decision. The nature the way buildings are...

 I am sharing this article written by  sriram balu  a Marine Engineer and a senior writer at Chinnai.i do not know how much these techniques are workable and whether they are in use or practiced. Please enjoy reading this article Everyone must have seen, in person or in images, the Empire State building or t he Eiffel Tower. Or you may have witnessed some tall building in the city where you live. You may have also heard some one exclaiming about some huge building’s height. Historical monuments like the Great Pyramids and the Leaning Tower of Pisa are usually identified by mentioning one of the important parameterss- the height. But have you ever wondered how the height of a building is mea...

NO this is not right because independent house provide a seprate space for a family
Santosh Kumar Mohanty  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  1 year ago
I can't think of Metros without high rise buildings. If all that staying is provided with independent houses, than there will be perhaps no land available for construction. Due to concentration of people in small place, other facilities like...
Pragya Kothari  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  1 year ago
It depends on how strong is the foundation. No damage was caused by the earthquake in Japan. It is about building quality buildings and then they can be quake-roof!

Military Strength: Comapre India and Pakistan Manpower and Ground Forces India has the second largest manpower in its military globally - at 3,773,300 personell (2005), next only to China. Pakistan has a much smaller manpower of 1,449,000 personell which is proportionally higher than India in terms of their population ratios. Pakistan’s ground forces are equipped with American or Chinese weapons like FIM 92 Stinger SAMs, BGM-71 TOW anti-tank missiles, T-82 tanks and other equipments. Indian ground forces are equipped mostly by home-made or Soviet technologies like IR guided 9K35 Strela-10 SAMs, 3rd Gen IR guided Nag anti-tank missiles, UAVs and a large inventory of tanks and support vehicles. In terms of numbers and equipments, both Indian and Pakistani ground forces are on an closely equal footing. Comparison of Air Forces As of 2006, Indian Air Force (IAF) has over 170,000 personnel and 3,382 aircrafts of which 1,330 are combat aircrafts operating off 61 airbases - making it the...

Facts about "Jana Gana Mana" - Just a thought for the National Anthem! How well do you know about it?     I have always wondered who is the "adhinayak" and "bharat bhagya vidhata",    whose praise we are singing. I thought might be Motherland India! Our current National Anthem "Jana Gana Mana" is sung throughout the country.   Did you know the following about our national anthem, I didn't.   To begin with, India's national anthem, Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka, was written by Rabindranath Tagore in honour of King George V and the Queen of  England when they visited India in 1919.   To honour their visit Pandit Motilal  Nehru had the five stanzas included, which are in praise of the King and  Queen. (And most of us think it is in the praise of our great motherland!! !)   In the original Bengali verses only those provinces that were under British rule, i.e. Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha etc. were mentioned. None of  the  princely states were recognised which are integral parts of India...

Don't go for Kamasutra, you may repent     Sophos computer  security  firm warned that hackers are spreading a nasty computer virus with a file promising a PowerPoint presentation of sexual positions from the Kama Sutra.  "Be careful what you do with that mouse," Graham Cluley of Sophos said in an online post.  "When you click on the file you do get to see a real PowerPoint presentation, but in the background a backdoor  Trojan  called Troj/Bckdr-RFM is installed which allows hackers to gain remote access to your computer."  Once a computer is infected with the malicious software, the hacker can steal personal information and spy on users' activities or use the machine for nefarious deeds such as sending spam or attacking websites.  In scant consolation, the booby-trapped file did present slides of more than a half dozen lovemaking techniques illustrated from the ancient Indian text, according to Cluley.
