Bachelor of politics

India, my motherland. gone were the days when we argued about why India is
still in develping countries list, in block 5 and 7 of AU hostels.
everyone had their own thoughts, but all the thoughts narrowed down to two major issues. one is India's population, and the other is the Indian politics.

First, let me tell something about the population. India often boasts about the
human resources available and the quality of each people. To me, I feel that the
quality is being eclipsed by the quantity of the people. as the head count increases
basic requirements for food, shelter, employment.... keeps increasing and
of course, we are not able to meet this requirement.

Although india is the seventh biggest country in the world, the cultivable
land space is less, even if it is available it will be under some problem
and less funds to improve the quality of the cultivated food.

considering north india, Kashmir problem is a major problem and most of
the funds needs to be allocated for defence and for day to day threats,
same with the case with east india. considering south india, there is always
some communal problems and race problems (aryans and dravidians, still!!!),
and regional problem (kaveri water dispute) and lots of funds and energy
is wasted solving these problems, instead they can be used for getting
basic amenities. So, inorder to tackle the increasing population, we need to
solve the communal problems and regional problems at first place.

Now, comes the second issue into picture. In most of these communal problems,
politicians role is major. If you take north india, the issue would be raman
temple and babri masjid, if you take south the issue would be cauvery water issue.
and these politicians campaign and sustain their throne using these issues,
and spend less time in these.

The solution that immediately pops on the top of mind is recruiting PMs, CMs,
ministers, only if they are literated. My strong belief was illiteracy
in the government circle is the major reason for these things. even I was thinking
of a new course which only teaches politics, Bachelor of politics.

But I was shocked when I heard that a party with more number of corrupts is from
lalloo's team, and also it is the party with maximum number literates among all
the parties in india. Literacy should be injected to commoner as well,
so that atleast, they can choose their well-wishers, deliberately.

I feel that there is a big hole in democracy. it says it is for the people,
by the people, and of the people. and the most funny thing is people exploits
democracy. there should be strict rules, hard and fast, to make people abide
the rules of the government. the number of decision makers should be decreased,
so that we can arrive at some conclusions faster and will reach people fast.
I am not saying some sort of autocracy or dictatorship, but tuning the demcoratic principles.

Personally, I feel that communism is the best.

(excerpts from gist of gita ;-))

Whatever you have, you have received from Him (Government).

Whatever you will give, you will give to Him.

You came empty handed and you will go the same way.

But I know that it is tangential what's happening in india, and quite difficult
to implement.

The last thing to say : unless we realize ourselves we cannot make india a super power, even in 2020. realization should come from oneself. just think of a country
like japan, which was in bad shape, before 50 years, when we were in the same
position. now, japan has grown to an extent, which will take india for another 15
to 20 years, to reach.

let us keep japan as our role model, and in future other countries will keep us,
as their role model.

BFN.

jokes to refresh

i am just copy pasting some jokes which my friend has sent to me, long back.

i found these humorous..

000) Teacher: "Can anybody give an example of COINCIDENCE?
Student: "Sir, my Mother and Father got married on the same day
same time."

001) Waiter: Would you like your coffee black?
Customer: What other colures do you have?

010) Pupil: Did you know that the most intelligent person on earth is
going deaf?
Teacher: Really. Who is it?
Pupil: Pardon, I don't understand.

011) Teacher: Now, children, if I saw a man beating a donkey and stopped
him, what virtue would I be showing?
Student: Brotherly love.

100) Patient: What are the chances of my recovery doctor?
Doctor: One hundred percent. Medical records show that nine out
of ten people die of the disease you have. Yours is the
tenth case I've treated. The others all died.

101) Girlfriend: And are you sure you love me and no one else.
Boyfriend: Dead Sure! I checked the whole list again yesterday.


101, is the best of all ;-)

Word Smith

Words, words, words,.... I started loving words when I was doing my 5th
semester (BE, in Anna university), and when I started preparing for my
GRE Exams.... After my 5th semester I do not remember any class where I slept,
since we started playing games related to words. one such game is "cows and bulls",
which students of 5th, 6th.. grade play... but we liked the game
very much and we used that game to improve our vocabulary.

Legend:

We = back bench boyz, which emerged as the fofy (the Freak Out Final Years),
when we were doing our final year..

here, I would like to give some words with peculiar properties...

first lemme start with words which does not have vowels
(i mean words without letters a,e,i,o,u, not vowel sound)
(feel free to add to this list).

my
by
why
sky
shy
cry
fry
try
wry
spry
tryst
gypsy
rhythm

"ryhthm" is the longest word without vowels, i have come across.
(and of course the most toughest word to guess while playing cows and bulls).

and coming to palindromes....(a cliche for you,....although..),
with some meaning in it... the list is:

A
I
civic
level
refer
madam
radar (bad example, ;-)
Rotator
aibohphobia (fear of palindromes)

I do not want to add "malayalam" to the above list....

whenever I come across the word "palindrome", a peculiar property
of palindrome numbers pops up on top of mind.

"a palindrome decimal number of even length will always be a multiple of 11".
eg : 234432

I published the above observation(discovery?) in aBaCUS 2002 magazine(thanks to the editors ;-)),
and just thought putting it here, if anyone has missed it...

and i came across some words which when gets reversed it will give different meanings...
here are few of those...:

tar = rat
no = on
ten = net
god = dog ;-), good word for ma kinda ppl
Live = evil
pool = loop
was = saw
raw = war
are = era
tool = loot

and it goes on...

of course, all the palindromes fall in to this category....

oops, i have received an SMS, wait lemme read.....

i tried to reply to my friends SMS, and I felt very difficult in typing
the following sentenced...

beef

and lots more words are there which is very difficult to type in a mobile
phone. surprised is another such word and it keeps going..

ok, I think I can sign off with this, and will get back to this column,
with lot more interesting facts!!!!

kavithayae theriyumaaa.......

one good kavithai from my thoughtss....

Square, is a special case of Rectangle,
Circle, is a special case of ellipse,
I am a special case of Monkey,
you are a special case of me ;-)

-Keep kicking!!!!
