At bright 11 AM, the street lights are on, and then we are given dose of 'electricity saving' by MSEB.
Hopefully someone conveys this message to someone responsible.

SS: The following piece of writing is purely satirical and hypothetical. It does not resemble any person/object or situation in reality, any similarity to real life person/object should be taken as a pure co-incidence. Getting an over-head projector (OHP) in any normal college is one simple thing. Go and visit the staff room, and swap your ID card for the projector. Plug in the wires, adjust the focus and you are done. An excellent substitute for black-board notes, making lives of so many teachers across the globe easier. Not to forget the benefits of the same to the students who don’t have to burn their retinas in comprehending the caricatures, I mean diagrams, made by their teachers on the black-board. When it comes to an engineering college in MU, there is a twist in everything, right from the first day in the college. You are made to sign a self-imposed imposition; I mean the admission form of course, of ‘Imprisonment in the institution for 4 years or more for some special out-stan...

My commentary on Sayameva Jayate's show on Caste System

By -
I admit that i switched off my tv-set almost 3/4th way into the show. But from whatever I have seen, these are my conclusion/readings: 1. In Urban areas (amounts to 35%) along with semi-urban, like towns or talukas, i think the problem of 'untouchability' is negligible or nearly zero. Even if there might be a few orthodox people, the majority of the villagers would have subdued it. Brahmins constitute less than 4% of the Indian population!!  My village and places where my cousins live don’t face the problem. The problem, if it really exists is only in rural or “khed gavs”. I have not seen untouchability in my life!! But have heard my grandparents talk about it. I think looking at the rate of urbanization and education, this problem will slowly get eradicated. 2. About the priest talking like this, it would be a gross miscalculation if that was to be generalized. I think less than 0.1% Brahmins would accept his views. Secondly, there is no written/scientific proof of wha...

Secularism in India

By -
(Please note this article/thesis’ sanity remains constrained only in India and applicable only to Indians.) In India, an Indian is either a Hindu, or a Muslim, or a Christian, or a Jain or a Buddhist….. or a Secularist. And India is a Secular country. My title, ain’t so thought provoking. It’s simple, you cannot be or at least not claim to be, a Hindu/Muslim (etc.) and secularist at the same time. The word secular was interpolated in our constitution by an amendment in 1976. I remember saying this to one of my secular friend who chided me for using jargons like amendment and interpolation. To answer him I have to say that these are matchless words which best describe the situation. Amendment is a change made to the constitution by a parliamentary bill/order. Interpolation is an addition/append made to the constitutional literacy. It means the word secular wasn’t mentioned in the constitution by the constitution framers, dated back to late 40’s. My point of argument is th...
