Most of youths want to work in air-conditioned BPO

I do not agree that our education system lacks vision. While there are many vocational courses available, today's youth do not want to pursue courses which require manual/outdoor work. Most of them want to work in air-conditioned BPO! There is an acute shortage of nurses, OT assistants, geriatric care attendants etc. which require skill and dedication. Unfortunately there are no takers for these jobs.

Country needs a political will

I can't add more to what Adarsh Malviya ji has said about job cuts and unemployment. The fact is India doesn't have a vision document on education, any curriculum of education must be so designed that after you finish your education you should be employable, in other words India must have employable education. For that country needs a political will. Voters have been left to fend for themselves for education, India has been destroyed through education, education sector needs a revolutionary reforms. The other sector which needs looked into is agriculture, which should use latest technology & grow multi crops. If we grow multi crops through year, India can feed the world through exports.

AAP to contest in MP, Karnataka

AAP has announced that it will contest on all seats in MP and Karnataka. AAP did not win too many seats in Gujarat. The party, however, made strong inroads into the voter-base with a sizable vote share of 13 percent. Thus while it won only 5 seats in Gujarat, it helped BJP to win many times more seats by eating into the vote share of Congress. It is likely that the AAP will hurt the prospects of Congress in MP and Karnataka also in the role of a votekatwa.

Job cuts and joblessness

Large-scale job cuts particularly in the IT sector has forced us to ponder where this will end and what is the future of the young generation. The youngsters are already quite frustrated and thousands of them can be seen vying for a single government job. In the present scenario one is forced to think what have we ultimately achieved even after so much so-called progress in all fields when we cannot provide a secure future to our young generation.

All communities safe because of secular Constitution

Today, we are celebrating Republic Day. The Day is celebrated after the Constitution came into effect ensuring equal rights to all citizens irrespective of any caste and religion. All the citizens are safe because of the secular Constitution. The Constitution is progressive and committed to install an egalitarian society. Some anti-social and anti-nation forces are making all efforts to dismantle but they can’t succeed in their malice aforethought.

Citizens of Karnataka are wise

The citizens of Karnataka are very wise and they know whom to elect. So the views of political observers means nothing and is just a sheer speculation to cater to the satisfaction of some sections of the polity.

Air India staff still having hangover of GoI

Recently, I traveled by Air India from Del to Bangalore and back, the staff of Air India is still having hangover of Govt of India employ as long as they continue to work as per their previous practice nothing important change will be visible on the ground and travelers will suffer which will ultimately affect the Band Tata.

RTI information must be shared

I agree with Sudhanshu Trivedi ji RTI information must be shared fully. Not sharing information means defeat of the purpose of RTI Act. As of date it seems RTI is dead now as information is never shared with the excuse of National interest or security of nation or State as the case may be. Government must find a solution to this issue

Public interest to disclose or deny information

In many cases it is known that someone has committed a wrong and needs a document to prove it. It is felt that in cases of serious allegations, the documents should be provided under RTI as there would be no way to otherwise prove an allegation. A culprit may use the privacy provision to prevent any information from going out and the system would act to prevent any leakage of information. Such a closed system breeds corruption and nepotism. It would be in the public interest to disclose the information under RTI Act to deny or prove the charges.
