Lage raho munna bhai ...GANDHIGIRI

Gandhigiri Vs Dadagiri...

Movie not to be missed by any Indian....

Hats off to Rajkumar Hirani for creating another master piece....Sanjay Duth, Arshad Warsi, Boman Irani.....everybody at their best....

Gandhi's relevance in todays unilateral world dominated by US has been an issue under discussion for some time now....In the world of nukes, people like Gandhi, his strategies are hardly mentioned leave alone discussing...

This is where credit goes to the director for highlighting Gandhigiri in todays polarised world...Whether its solving simple problem or the root of corruption, its beautifully documented and common man can easily come to terms with Gandhi's idealogy....

Few months back we had Rang de Basanti where youth take up arms and end up being killed in fighting corruption....This sends out a wrong message amongst youth....Naxalites justify their strategy....Violence is not the way to go....

Lage raho highlights the significance of Truth and Non-violence in todays world.....

Definitely it should be India's entry into OSCARS next year.....

Indo US Nuclear deal

Indo-US nuclear deal has been debated a lot in media as well as in Parliament(surprisingly)

I welcome the deal provided we are allowed to reprocess spent Uranium..This ensures that our resarch work can be carried out without any hindrance...

Our power requirements are so huge that we need to promote nuclear power in a big way...Inspite of sanctions after Pokhran we have demonstrated our nuclear capability in Thermo nuclear fusion, reprocessing of spent uranium....We have become part of 8 countries investing in International Thermo nuclear fusion (ITER) research....Once this deal is approved our access to more uranium resources from other countries will go a long way in encouraging nuclear power....

Right now our country is dependent on Thermal power and coal resources will run short by this century...If we can get access to latest nuclear technology and uranium resources, nuclear power can substitute thermal power in the long run...

We need to be careful that we do not compromise on minium nuclear deterrent capability...With terrorist breeding centres as our neighbours we need to maintain this capability...Afterall we cannot choose our neighbours ..right?

Reservations - BOON OR BANE...

Reservation......

Our constituent assembly chaired by Dr. Ambedkar realised that the conditions of the oppressed class need to improved and hence introduced the concept of reservation for a decade upto 1960..

It was a right decision at that stage...For decades long they were subjugated to mindless acts and had lost their identity...

This reservation benefits were reviewed after each decade and it continues to be in force till now...Unfortunately Ambedkar thought that reservation will be done way after a decade i.e 1960...

Whats the status right now....No doubt people have benefitted a great deal from this and inhuman practices like untouchability has come down to a manageble scale...

But the benefits of reservation has not percolated to all the needy...

The creamy layer concept has to be implemented properly for efective utilisation of reservation benefits...Else people who are poweful enough continue to exploit reservation where as the needy ones will be left out...

Economic condition should be the criteria to determine reservation and not any particular caste or creed...
