My views

Another controversy has aroused after “Yoga” has been announced to be a compulsory part of education for Central Govt. schools. There is no doubt about the advantages of Yoga. It will provide you with better health and peaceful mind. One of the leaders of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) had said that all those persons who do not want to practice Yoga should go to Pakistan! We can see a lot of statements like this now a days.  If Yoga is against the beliefs of any region, that matter should be taken care of, before declaring it as ‘a compulsory’ part of syllabus. Going to Pakistan is not the solution.  Yoga is for making a peaceful mind. If some of them think that any part of yoga, is against their beliefs we cannot expect them to learn it with peaceful mind. Let them learn what they learn. Govt. should spread advertisements and make them aware of the advantages. Some of them argued that it is a part of the Hindu Agenda of the Govt. The statement made by the VHP leade...

Are the actors in advertisements required to ensure the quality of the products or services they are promoting? This question has gained importance after the ‘maggi incidence’. Amitabh Bachan and Madhuri Dixit are accused for promoting the product which is later on proved to be poisoned. Most of them opined that how the actors can ensure the quality of products? They are not supposed to ensure the quality rather; they are the people who are there to promote the product. What do you mean by ‘Promotion’? In fact, it is an inducement by some persons of social acceptance upon common people to buy or use some products or services.  Because of the social acceptance, they are in a position to influence the decisions of common people. They will get huge amounts for creating such mass attraction to the product. There ends the commitment. So the question is, since they have influence over the society, are they responsible for the damages caused to the society? Technical or ...

Most of us are depending on jobs to earn for a good living. Some of us may be working in the job sector in which we are interested. But some others may have to work in a sector which does not satisfy their likes. But I think there are a lot of workers who are working under difficult circumstances which we can’t even imagine. Because, such work may be dangerous or low paid / no paid or under very difficult circumstances. I have seen several times that a man was standing in front of a hotel by holding a board written “Meals Ready”. It was a sort of advertising used by the hotel management to grab attention of people. That man stands there for hours. One of my friend said that how can that person stand like that for hours every day. What would have been his salary? If we look around, we can see a lot of such valuable works. I think they are doing thankless jobs like the following.   Soldiers Soldiers are working for the security of the entire nation without even consi...
