Child Labour




Child labour is the most Horrifying and dangerous practices we are observing in our society.The consequences of child labour are not only effecting mankind physically but also effecting them mentally.
The other day I was watching “Crime Patrol”A program on various crimes occurring  in our society and I was shocked to see the episode of child labour and human trafficking. In our country India where we call “children” as the medium of God are tortured ruthlessely in the name of child labour.

Does our god teaches us such brutal acts?No we the super intelligent and insensitive human beings are the sole cause of such atrocious acts
The innocent and poor children from downtrodden sections of society are misled and kidnapped from their villages and are sold out in big metropolitan cities for the jobs of servants in factories,shops and big housing societies.This is child trafficking and it should be seriously checked out.

These children suffer so many hardships while working in such a small age.They are beaten,abused and their services are misused on the cost of their health .There are various fraud employment agencies set up in big cosmopolitan cities who are engaged in supply of small children in the name of employment.The illiterate and poor people are trapped in their claws and are forced for bonded labour for the lifetime.
There are many children who are forced into prostitution and child abuse at the very tender age.

The Independent India is still the slave of such horrible practices and crimes.As we all know in our constitution every child has the right to get education but children suffering from child labour are deprived of such rights and privileges.They are slogging themselves for earning the basic needs of life.Education and a good happy life is a dream for them.

There is no doubt that we cannot change others destiny but those who are involved in such crimes should atleast made aware of and taught the moral values.The law and order should take strict actions against such malpractices and people involved in it.

If we cannot give better life to such children we have no right to spoil their life.We must discourage child servants in our homes and should try to make others understand to discourage such practices too in our surroundings and nearby vicinities.

There are various Non governmental organisations who are helping such children who are victims of such brutality.Hats off to such organisations and we all must also try our level best to support such efforts by all such organisations.


We must help all the needy children who are victims of child trafficking and child labour by providing  them good educational facilities and basic amenities of life according to our means and sources.
Above all Government must not only frame laws but strictly adhere to it. Anyone following such crimes should be severly punished so that it’s the lesson for others as well.

Is really Hockey our National game


Manav was a sixteen year old teenager. He was typically mad after cricket. His biggest aspiration was to be a cricketer. For that he could do anything. He never used to concentrate on his studies and after returning from school he just used to play cricket, cricket and cricket. His father was very ambitious as well as he saw an intense desire in his son to be a cricketer. He always used to support him whether he was wrong or right. As a result he scored very less marks in his academic session. 
His mother was very worried about him but his father was not bothered of his career in academics, all he wanted was to make him a cricketer. 

There was another boy in their building named Sujoy ,who was also very good in sports. He was a hockey champ of his school but no one used to notice his abilities in fact his parents was against   his playing hockey, instead they used to give them example of Manav who was a cricket champ. 

Sujoy was always discouraged for Hockey and was forced more to work out for cricket.
His parents broke his morale to such an extent that inspite of being a hockey champ he stopped playing hockey and any other sport as well.

Manav who was always appreciated for his cricket related super abilities used to bog down Sujoy by making his fun about playing hockey which according to Manav was such a boring and least important game in India.
Finally   Sujoy quit hockey and joined Manav in his cricket team and was always suppressed by him as his interest was in hockey and he was best in that and not in cricket,resultantly it led into suppressed Sujoy and his aspirations and suppressed National game of India.

This is the mindset in India about its own national game. I am not denying the fact that other sports  also needs importance like our National game and it’s not wrong to be a cricketer or a hockey champ. Everyone has their own choices but yes it’s not right to lift one game up to such a height that the other game is suppressed. Cricket should also be given due recognition but ignoring Hockey and lifting cricket is not fair in our Country.

The neglected feelings towards hockey has not only snatched many of the dreams of best hockey players but also snatched future hockey champs of our country and also a question mark is put up to the dignity of our National game Hockey.

The solution according to normal man like us would have been that Sujoy should not have lost hope instead must have worked so hard into hockey that his parents would have compelled to fulfil his dreams.

 But yes off course when it comes on the matter of name, fame and gain no one can be persuaded to compromise Cricket. We all know the condition has come to such an extent that Cricketers earn more money and fame than the people who are playing our National game and maintaining its dignity.

Finally the ultimate solution is with God who has something in his mind that he is not enlightening up our Country’s interest towards its National game Hockey.

Moral of the story
Parents please do not bog down your children just because cricket is famous, instead encourage them to progress and fulfil their dreams related to hockey.


I am not at all criticising the game cricket   but I am trying to inculcate some sense of respect for our national game as well through this article. Through this article I request the Government to please seriously view the condition of Hockey in our country and make some measures to uplift this game and dreams of many associated with this game.

Is pressure on students to adopt careers of their parent’s choice right or wrong?


 Shamita was a very bright student and was very much active in extra co curricular activities as well. She was exceptionally brilliant in chess and had won many awards on state and national level and had represented her school many times on State and National level.

She was infact the chess champ of her school and her city. She secured 96 percent in his tenth board exam. She always wanted to excel in the career of chess and had aspirations to become the world’s most successful chess champ.

She had no aspirations to become an Engineer or Doctor instead she wanted to work in the direction of her goal of being the famous chess player. But her parents were reluctant. Her father said her to adopt for careers like Engineering or Management because these are the best and most successful careers today.
She was disheartened as her main interest was in making career in chess and with her brilliance she knew she will make it to that field but due to her parents constant pressure she crushed her feelings inside her heart and opted for the science stream and worked hard for various top engineering entrance exams of the country.

She could never forget chess and her aspirations related to that and never took interest in her studies wholeheartedly. As a result she failed in her exams and could not make it to the country’s best Institute. She became frustrated and committed suicide.

This is the story of every second child in our country who have to face the undue aspirations of parents and who are forced to run in the rat race and unhealthy competitions of life.

The solution according to our mindsets is that Shamita’s parents should have allowed her to choose career of her choice as she was desperate and focussed on attaining the goal of being the chess champ in the world.

Her parents should have understood her interest and her abilities in that field and should have supported her at their best but they wanted to see her successful from their point of view ,they didn’t think that a person needs to be successful in his or her eyes first then only he feels real inner satisfaction and happiness in life.

The ultimate solution is with God as he should give all such parents the correct direction to think what is right and what is wrong for their children.

The parents must be given enlightenment by god not to make their children run in the worldly race of being famous and rich overnight.
Children should be allowed to decide their interests and goals on their own so that they can enjoy their work and their life by choosing the field they are interested in.

Parents should be given career counselling of their children so that they do not lose their children in the process of forcing their choices on them

dowry is taking the sophisticated form nowadays


 dowry is taking the sophisticated form nowadays



The sad part is although education has reduced dowry cases in the civilised educated society but problem of dowry hasn’t crushed from the roots.
Iam writing this article because I have seen lots of cases of such kind of smart and shrewd ways of acquiring dowry in my city and in my surroundings.
Nowadays because of fear of increasing complaints and cases by girls against their In-laws dowry has taken a sophisticated form.It does not hurt girls physically or does not leave any proofs of torture but the girls are hurt emotionally and in sophisticated ways so that she cannot raise voice also as they have no solid grounds to prove torture just by words ,and are  forced just to bear things in her heart.
The girl’s parents are giving the best of best to the boy and his family in the name of dowry or call it a lavish wedding but still girls are often told by their In-laws that their parents  have given very good gifts, but could have given better saris’, better sweets, better household items and rich and expensive gifts.
Girls try to ignore these things and never speak to their parents about it on their own but parents  feel such indifferent attitude and unexpected words of In-laws of their daughter.
They finally decide to always give the best costliest and expensive gifts to their son in law, more cash and more of jewellery to their daughter and her In-laws.
Even after doing so In-laws often comment that marriage was good but decoration and venue could have been better and it would have  been good if dry fruits and cash would have been given more.
They often comment on the gifts given by daughter in law’s parents on several occasions that if this would have been given it would have been better or if that would have been given it would have been better.
Their demand indirectly increases to such a height that tolerance of the girls break and they finally choose to complain this to their parents and as we know the consequences are nothing but the relationship which should have been long lasting spoils between everyone.
The solution to such problem is very complicated as by reading we find such issues so petty and minor but the person who goes through such mental torture only can understand the pain. As nowadays people are educated so they know the legal process and its hassles and fear them, so instead of torturing girls directly they are hurting them by words and constant comments in order to get their demands fulfilled.
The solution according to our mindsets is that the parents of the boy should not use such weapons to get their demands fulfilled and encourage dowry in a new modern form.
As we know the demands of a person are never ending process so girl’s parents should also become firm and should not fulfil the demands of boy’s parents often.Girl should also become strong and firm and instead of tolerating must question the boy’s parents boldly of their indirect reckless behaviour. If all the girls and their parents will become bold such sophisticated measures to acquire dowry will stop automatically.
Those who are educated will soon open their eyes and will not do such low level deeds because definitely such people knows, our education doesn’t teaches us such acts and deeds instead it teaches us to broaden our vision.
The ultimate solution is with God who has still not enlightened the people towards dowry. If dowry is taken through any means whether through torture or sophistication it is a crime and God should stop people from doing such crime.
The essence of this article is that all the parents of the boys should free themselves from greed. They should understand the worth of a daughter and feelings and sentiments of others. Above all they should understand the worth of a person instead of giving supreme importance to money. And even Girls and their parents should become bold and raise voice against such injustice.

The level of News Channel is deteriorating day by day


The level of News Channel is deteriorating day by day



News is the best way to transfer information from one place to another and the full form of news itself says transferring information to NORTH,EAST,WEST AND SOUTH.But now a days in India the right news and healthy news has taken the form of synthetic and unhealthy content which generates huge popularity of news channels but has degraded the quality of the content we watch and read.The children in our society which are youth of tomorrow are misguided and the moral values are getting hampered by unhealthy and false contents shown on news channels
Television is the inseparable part of our lives so choosing the right content is very important for viewer. The article raises the issue of deteriorated contents and level of news channels that run in huge numbers but lack in quality and authenticity.The article is written to show the impact of news channels on families.
People  are watching those news channels which shows all the stuff that does not exist in reality as the news channels are producing  it  to gain more television rating points and public is misled. The condition is so pathetic that children are never shown any healthy or meaningful news.
The children today who will be youth of tomorrow have become  dull as they are not aware of anything meaningful happening in their country and when they are asked the general IQ related questions about the country they fail in answering that and always bring shame on their part. News channels magnify the news and show excess of everything which spoils the level of thinking of people. These channels show all irrelevant news which will not help anyone in any ways.
The solution which we can give to this problem is that we can boycott watching such rubbish news channels which only degrades our sensibility and ethics. The society must develop the sensibility to watch something which really can help in increasing their knowledge and even if the vast empire of news channels are progressing, people must learn to choose the best news channel which shows healthy, true and relevant content so that our children, our youth and we ourselves are not hampered by any indecent and fake content

Predicaments of modern women


Predicaments of modern women



In our modern highly civilised and highly educated society we all are enjoying the women’s liberation in the form of grabbing the best education for her, employing her in big and giant Multinational corporations and  providing her the equal social status as men. In todays era ,women is coming out with flying colours in all the fields of education and modernism.

But question is whether she has been able to tackle the typical old mindsets of people surrounding her in day to day life?The women who wants to go out and work and break the walls of age old customs and traditions are still facing the discrimination and disparities from society.

This can be proved by many examples. A woman who wishes to earn and be independent like man are still considered as overambitious and extremely career oriented women. When we expect the women to acquire best of the best education, to earn and work equally with men, to make her position strong in her family and society should we name her overambitious just because our typical age old cultural mindsets doesn’t change?
The answer is NO. The working women who are maintaining a fine balance between work and home should be supported wholeheartedly. I have seen many working women nowadays  following  their family cultures, traditions and rituals perfectly but since they have to cope up with many areas of life even if she lacks in one aspect why she doesn’t gets support is a big question?

The woman who wishes to be successful in this modern society always have to face lots of challenges. It is always said that we are living in the era of women empowerment but still we have not achieved it completely. People who appreciate the highly qualified and successful women are the ones who are not able to digest if women rises above men. This mindset has to be improved. When we expect women to be successful and highly qualified like man we have to accept her need and urge for more and more progress rather than labelling her as overambituous or super career oriented women. If she is standing equally with men,She will progress equally and will place her views and suggestions equally.

Our society has to accept the modern career oriented women with more optimistic and positive attitude. The women will be able to create her own standing and move out in this smart technological world only when she will get support of  healthy mindsets and a healthy approach of people towards her modernism and success.

The women who wishes to acquire success in careers are the same women who works wholeheartedly for the betterment and welfare of their families and societies, so blaming any modern, educated andsmart women as selfish, highly career oriented and workaholic is not right.

We all must think seriously on this issue. We all must leave hypocrisy and narrow-mindedness and look towards the holistic approach of modern ..They will definitely shape the future of our country.


I am not saying that women are not misusing the term modernism in the name of being their independent and educated. We get to watch many cases where women are taking this liberation for granted. They are following western culture and encouraging late night parties, alcohol consumption and spoiling Indian culture but then when we don’t stop the man from doing all this we cannot question women, as now when we talk of same  equal status of men and women both of them should be blamed for unethical practises in the name of modernism.

The only point is modern educated women should be supported for all her successful endeavours and ambitions but should not be blamed alone when it comes to culture and ethics. Men and women are equally responsible for everything good and bad in our society and sooner we accept this fact our country will rise above all the levels of age old orthodox mindsets and our country will produce more and more intelligent and successful women who will be a blessing to the society..








Educated Youth of modern times degrade their parent’s abilities and achievements


Educated Youth of modern times degrade their parent’s abilities and achievements


Parents are the ones who have given us the essence and reason for living and we all know we are indebted to our parents in million ways. Parents are the ones who make our lives worth living and they are the only ones who try their level best to fetch their children best education and best resources to become the most successful person on the earth. They do lots of sacrifices for us and in return they only expect love from their children.
In modern times the parents are keen to make their children highly qualified and high earning professionals in huge Multinational corporations, and parents are full of pride by their child's success in the young age. I have written this article basically on those youth of today who have become arrogant and insensitive instead of being thankful and generous towards their parents achievements and sacrifices.
I have observed in my nearest surroundings that nowadays young boys and girls are earning handsomely at a very young age and how they boast in front of their parents about pressures and stress of Multinational corporations. They humiliate their parents and term them as a simple and low profile employees of their times and they make their parents feel that they had fixed job and salary but multinationals are rich payers and demand intelligence and lots of time and devotion.I have seen parents getting shattered and completely broken by their children's arrogance and attitude. This is a very common problem now days. Boys and girls are earning lots and lots of money in big companies and huge corporate giants and are becoming ruthless and heartless to their parents.
The solution is that parents should always teach their children humility along with success. They should not boast about their children and pamper them in such a way that one day their children themselves start degrading their parents. And children should also learn to respect their parents because ultimately whatever we achieve is all due to our parent's efforts and devotion. Children should accept this reality that it is because of their parent's time, devotion and resources one gets success in life. Nothing can be accomplished on our own. It is the combined effort of both parents and children that one gets happiness in life.
The ultimate solution is with God who has created mindsets of youth in such a way that they have given all the credits of their success to themselves. God can only enlighten such children who ignore their parents' constant services to them throughout their lives. And God should make parents practical in modern times that not to trust and boast about your children every time. They may break your trust and you may lose them in due course of time if you are over possessive and caring for them.
Parents should adopt balanced approach towards their successful children. They should become practical and realistic instead of becoming emotionally trapped. This is harsh reality and very few people dare to write it. I am initiating so that in today's modern times I can wake up those parents who are blind in their children's love so much that they are bearing all their arrogance and selfishness.
The lust for money and security in the long run also has stopped parents from raising the voice against their insensitive and proud children which I feel is absolutely wrong. The ultimate wealth of anyone is his self respect and it should be preserved and protected by all means. Money may last for few years but respect will last for years and years. Parents should make themselves self sufficient and strong so that they do not have to bear disrespect of their children during old age as there is no guarantee that parents will get a fair treatment in the long run from such kind of children who have no concern and humility for their parents today.
I only wish to write that successful modern youth of today should respect parents achievements and innumerable services towards them and and also want to wake parents of today' s youth who are becoming emotional fool and tolerating the nuisances of their successful but insensitive children. Love of parents is love of God and those who are unable to show love and respect towards their parents should undergo emotional counselling and I pray to God to grant all of us the warmth of love of our parents throughout our lives.






Is brain drain gaining momentum?


Is brain drain gaining momentum?


Brain drain is a very common problem and has been much talked about but now a days.
Brain drain is speedily increasing because the outsourcing of human resource from India has become a popular feature and Indians are lured to gain money at a faster pace than in their own country.We cannot blame brain drain to the extent that the politics, corruption and lack of professionalism in India has created young bright students and youth to work outside India, gain success at faster pace and lead better and peaceful life there.
But on the contrary we know the truth. Our Country is giving input to generate bright and young professionals and we are giving output to the other countries.But as we know in order to gain success overnight everyone wishes to earn in dollars and pounds. Very few young professionals migrate back to India and wish to earn handsomely and prove their worth in their Country.
One of the reasons of brain drain is people’s indifferent attitude towards Indians and this indifference has led many young professionals to conquer money, name and fame over their family members and friends.
 IndiaCalling

The problem lies in unhealthy competition and inferiority complex running in the minds of Indian professionals and automatically it leads to brain drain.
I would also like to raise one of the point that people sometimes call it as a ‘brain gain’ as the educated professionals are proving their worth and the worth of our country in other countries and as we hear that there is no harm in earning handsomely in dollars and pounds. But then I would like to question why are people studying and getting degrees from India? If finally their aim is to earn and prosper in other countries then they should acquire all their education from outside India where they wish to settle. Why our country is wasting its huge resource, time and money on such professionals who will finally give all the output to other countries?
 c1-01

I know its globalisation and to progress you have to expand your wings but then I wish to talk about those people whose only aim is to grab best degrees from best educational institutions from India and finally migrate to abroad leaving the country of their origin without any concern and respect. But on the contrary our country is also at fault. We know in India from top to bottom there is corruption in hierarchy why would one not want to leave such a country and work for outsiders who pay handsomely and demand less and provide best work cultures and incentives.
It is all in God’s hand to wake up the people who are running our Country and guide them to change the pattern of education, work culture and system in order to retain our own people in our own country and make our country a better place to work, enjoy and lead life to the best..







 Will Recession change the lives of people for years and years to come?




The recession is the most prominent and serious issue now a days. The recession has changed the entire lives of people. The recession  has become a turning point in the lives of many young professionals and job aspirants. People who had put in lots of efforts for gaining high education in and outside India have suffered failures due to this recession.





The recession had hit the markets of London and USA but the bad effects and the poison of its destruction spread everywhere.There were thousands of professionals who had to bear the pain of being thrown out from their companies like a trash. There were professionals who despite of being highly qualified and intelligent had to migrate back to other places because they were not able to grab best jobs in the desired country due to this recession.





The solution is people should not lose their confidence when the concerned company leaves them instead person should patiently try their level best to gain that same name and fame which they get there after years and years of perseverance, but as again we see the other side of coin it is easy to write but person who might have gone through such professional trauma only knows what forced him to step back.The recession is a much hyped up topic for those who haven’t face it but its the matter of life and death who have suffered its painful claws.


The ultimate solution is with God who should help and give inner strength to such victims of recession who have either faced the bad job scene or who have either lost their jobs to gain momentum in life again and by their hard work and intelligence prove their worth where ever they go.
Also only God knows the basic essence behind this recession, whether it is all natural or the economists are creating it artificially? Because this recession has hit back hard to many industries and has changed the lives of many successful and hard working people.
We must try our level best to morally support such victims of recession (if we come across any) who lose their faith and courage by the sudden shock of losing their jobs.


We must not degrade and insult anyone who has suffered from recession because anyone amongst us can be victim of it in the near future so one should be down to earth and grounded from his roots so that if such kind of hassles come across the person he does not lose his  balance of mind.

Politicians should not be blamed for everything.

We have a bad habit of blaming politicians in everything ,whether it is to curb the poverty and unemployment issues, whether it is related to bomb blasts in our country or whether it is related to corruption, we  blame politicians and leaders of the country all the time.

But when we are asked to do small voluntary welfare programs like tree plantations in our surroundings, helping poor and needy people in getting employment, Child education programmes ,helping people of flood prone areas etc. we act as laggard. These were just petty examples of what we escape from when asked for welfare and betterment of our country.
 We have no right to speak ill about leaders and politicians of our country when we ourselves ignore our duties towards our country.
We very easily blame politicians for what they are not doing and for what they are doing. Have we ever   thought who are we to speak such words when we ourselves are only involved in our personal lives, in our money making, in our progress and in our name, fame and gain?
No we have only right to speak about something or someone’s services when we ourselves have done an inch of that work in our lifetime. If we haven’t done anything for the welfare of our country even when we got chance and even when it was in our reach, then we must not blame politicians alone.


We must see our deeds first and then blame others deeds. Politicians are chosen by common masses like us, so it is our duty to choose the right person without any prejudices and without being biased.
I do not deny this fact that our country produces the most corrupt politicians but yes every leader is not bad. We are so biased that whenever there is crisis we start blaming the political system. We are also equally responsible for good and bad of our society.
We must understand the hassels of the leader of our country. Its easy to pin point a mistake in a leader or politician but its very tough to stand at their place and work. We must try to develop sense of understanding towards our leaders and politician's situations.
Instead of blaming we must try to uplift our society to the best of our abilities. As well said charity begins at home. We must first learn to be a good human being and then a good citizen of our country.


Everyone is aware of their duties and politicians should be given space to perform their duties instead of criticism. We all must first try to improve ourselves then we are in a position to blame the leaders of our country.
