Embracing failures!

                  “Failures and setbacks are ingredients of a greater success story!”   I always wondered what makes the successful people different from the ordinary people. Is it that they have brighter minds than the rest? Is it because they are gifted individuals? Is it because they have a quintessential potential in them? After all my 20 years of life, I finally realized that it is the power to accept failures that makes them distinguishable fromthe rest.              Effort is the foundation stone for the success but it only helps you to nudge you to climb a mountain. Many people put in the efforts trying to climb the mountain but as soon as they encounter a hitch, they panic. They surrender and give up their efforts. But there will only be a handful of people who try to defy these snags, or embrace them, and continue on their journey to the zenith. And those few are the people...

Whatsapp and lynchings!

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 ...

No-confidence-motion!

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 ...

But Mr. Trump is facing flak from the congress for not confronting Mr.Putin on meddling in US elections-2015, severely enough. India will be closely looking at how this meeting shapes up as there is a chance to avoid the sanctions from US(regarding purchase of Russian missiles),  if the US-Russia ties grow strong. Arjun Tendulkar: Arjun- a left arm seamer and alrounder has picked up his first wicket in his international foray in the ongo...

IT sector on the move!

      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. This sudden plunge over the years is because of its failure to adapt to the rapidly evolving technology. Many people predicted the situation to grow further worse, but the present scenario proves it wrong. One shoul...
