Should whatsapp be held accountable for lynchings? Over the last three months the nation has witnessed lynching of many individuals, all who have been wrongly projected as a child-lifters to the people over there. In all these cases it was Whatsapp-a social messaging app which acted as a medium in circulating this bogus and fallacious news around the village. But is it right to hold whatsapp accountable for the naivety of people? No! Consider the Assam lynching case- A man after getting to know that his fiend is visiting a village nearby, served up his intention of killing the person by just sending an image of that person with a tag of Child lifter, to a member of that village. Soon the message proliferated across the village and suddenly everyone was aware about the person. So, when that person entered the village, the people immediately pounced on him and killed without giving a sense of thought or chance for that person to present his case. What do you observe in this ...

Stage is set for Lok Sabha to witness no-confidence motion against BJP on Friday. But is it going to be a tough fight for BJP? or will it be a cake walk. It is not first time that there are requests of no-confidence motion against BJP in Lok Sabha. But all those requests were quashed by the then speaker as there was no adequate majority to succour the request.( A minimum of 50 members should render support initially). After 4 years of its ruling in the centre, the BJP is now facing a no-confidence-motion after the speaker Sushmita Mahajan accepted the request of the Vijayawada TDP MP. But numbers suggest that BJP has nothing to fear. Out of 534 votes (11 seats are currently vacant), BJP govt needs to garner 267 votes to overthrow this motion. BJP with 274 members is confident of toppling the motion as there is also support from many other prominent parties. Then why is this no-confidence-motion raised by the oppostion parties in the first place? One obvious reason could be to ...

      IT sector in India is rejuvenating. Many companies like Tata Consultancy service(TCS) and infosys has registered a growth rate of 15% and 12% respectively. But it will be wrong to assume that the jobs which had taken a dip in the last 2 years, will  increase proportionately. Rewind five years and you can see a boomimg IT industry at its heyday, where the companies had witnessed huge growth rates and profits. It also helped to alleviate the perennial unemployment problem that exists in India. An average of 2.4 lakh jobs were offered every year in this sector from Finacial Year (FY) 2011-15. But this numbers took a dip in the FY 2016 with only 1.7 lakh job hirings. It further dwindled to 1 lakh in the year 2017 exacerbating the situation further.

Should gambling be legalised in India? Yes:  Gambling is ubiquitous in India. May it be online or offline gambling, it has been rampant over the years and almost reached to an unstoppable state. The laws pertaining to gambling are vested with states and thus vary from state to state. Despite gambling being illegal in most parts of India, there are many online and offline services offering gambling that the common man could easily lay his hand into. Government tried to curb these services, but largely failed. Since, it is now clear that cessation of this menace is almost next to impossible, it is better if we atleast regulate it. As the Law Commission of India rightly proposed to legalise gambling with a few guidelines and limitations, like the gambler must and should attest or upload his pan card copy and the restrictions on number of gamblings he can do in a week. It also proposed to introduce a regulatory body to overlook on the modus operandi of these gambling centrers.Th...

Each and every party is gearing up for the elections and devising ideas, modalities, speeches and plans to outdo the other parties. This  is going to be a litmus test for both Congress and NDA. Its been a while, the former party suffered a debacle and are raring to go and redeem their pride. As for the latter, which is heavily reliant on the aura of Narendra Modi, this should be the perfect platform for them to show their supremacy and zip the lips of  the opposition party leaders. Lately Regional parties have become a huge factor in deciding the power at the centre, as we can see the power drama that transpired in the karnataka. So it is important to form the alliances and have their backs. In the run up to the elections we will find both the parties intensely slandering each other, trying to tarnish the images of one another, but the  Narendra Modi led B...

Over the last few weeks you might have encountered a plethora of articles, pertaining to Mr.Donald Trump’s ambitious zero tolerance approach towards undocumented migrants.Many children were forcibly estranged from their families and sent to detention centers. One cannot help, but feel sorrow after listening to an audio, purportedly of a wailing child in one of those centers, making rounds on the social media. Since then, there has  been growing resentment among the people and many politicians in the US condemned this policy, calling it “cruel” and  “horrendous”. So, what exactly is this policy? And why is Mr.Trump  so dogmatic about it? Lets get a quick lowdown on it. Immigration policy in US is not anew. It is put in place to curtail the undocumented immigrants, primarily from the porous Mexican border. While the former presidents Mr.Bush and Mr.Obama were lax about it, adopting a “catch and release” approach, the reigning president Mr.Trump is adopting a zero toleran...
