A little poem on corruption i found it somewhere.. Ek civil engineer ne ek bridge banaya.. Contractor tha uska contract laaya.. Jab adalat ne bridge par mukadma chalaya.. Bridge ghabraya.. Usne rote rote bataya.. Mene concrete aur cement nahi khaya.. Mene to bas ek chamch cement or reti se bhara bora khaya Baki sab to in engineer n contractor in khaya.. Contractor aur engineer ko noto se bhara dabba dikhaya.. Noto to dekh judge ni us bridge k khilaaf fesla sunaya Bridge bechara ye she nahi paaya.. Usne duniya se koi umeed karni hi chod di.. Aur jespe bana tha usi nadi me kood k atmhatya kar li..     True isn't it?

The real picture of CPWD & PWD. Thanks for sharing & referral, Pragya.

Hi Praghya its one of the best personifications I have read in recent times. What a witful manner to put forward the most grave issue of our society.
Capt. V.S. Kartik  |  Commented  |  10 months ago
Very good analogy Pragya. The honest man today is the one who takes less bribe for more work and completes in less time. But Khata zaroor hai.

Silence can speak a lot if you have a patience.There is difference between hear and listen.When there is pin drop silence u can hear very well,but u won't remember it for a long time.But listening require a interest and interest make that...

Most people tend calculate what they have to speak next rather than focusing on what the other person is speaking now..... leading to a divided concentration Similarly many also tend to start analysing whether wht is said is 'right or wrong' making it...

You cannot expect people to deliver through sheer pressure alone. First a passion for the job has to be there, once passion is in place performance will follow suit. Pressure can elicit a performance once or twice but not in the long run. It would...
Vinay Desai  |  Argues in support of  |  1 year ago
Well with all those saying 'no' one thing is common they give, all the regard to passion and that in itself gives the support for the above statement altough passion may not alone give performance all the time but the necessity of passion is...
Jyoti Kapoor  |  Argues in support of  "no"  |  1 year ago
Passion and pressure .. it is simple if we think straight and say passion.. But is it enough to achieve targets?? Perhaps no.. A little bit of pressure is always needed to fuel that passion which does not remain alive forever.

    YouTube announced a project called “Life in a Day,” which attempts to document one day, July 24, seen through the camera lens of people around the world. The project will be executive produced by Ridley Scott of Blade Runner and Gladiator fame, and edited by Kevin Macdonald, best known for directing films such as The Last King of Scotland and One Day in September.       The film will premiere at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival; if your footage makes the final cut, you’ll be credited as a co-director, and 20 contributors will be selected to attend the premiere. If you’re hoping for financial gain, however, you’ll be disappointed: for this one, glory is your only reward. To contribute to ...

There are some things which are incorrect despite of the fact what they are... Will you allow any of your family members to watch it..... U know the answer
Vinay Desai  |  Argues in support of  "Allow Porn"  |  1 year ago
I am not saying porn is good but as said it is time for parents to grow up and speak to their children about these issues. Porn sites may be a driving factor for them to realise with world coming nearer and with it many things which were...
Yash Singh  |  Argues in support of  "Allow Porn"  |  1 year ago
Edward all you said were true but only in India we see porn as a wrong thing. When we want to go global in all things we have to accept this also. Baning the porn site form your children will only make them curious and will not stop them from...

1 Jabulani ball
2 Underdogs better prepared than champions
Rathin Deb  |  Supported idea  "Jabulani ball"  |  1 year ago
I agree with Yash on this subject. The World Cup this year is really subdued and one of the reasons or the main reason is this unknown Jabulani ball by addidas.
Vinay Desai  |  Supported idea  "Underdogs better prepared than champions"  |  1 year ago
Watch The matches it is all clear. The Teams We All Thought are there to fill the vacant seats and and go away soon. But these teams not only Have stayed there But also have Made  [lace in Both people's heart and FIFA.
