Junta can follow the direcections by the governments and limit the spread of Covid-19.

Gadgets Everywhere... Friends & Family

2017-11-09T21:52:00.000+05:30

There is technology everywhere. There are gadget and gizmos everywhere. People especially young blood are buying tech insanely. Youth are spending more time on gadgets rather than together. Many people have already experienced situations wherein a party or in a get together their friends busy checking online status rather than talking, mingling or simply enjoying.

Very soon markets will be flooded with wearable devices like mobiles, smart watches, mobility chips, AI-based systems. This sounds exciting but it also sends an alarming signal. Huge dependability on gadgets somehow forces people to confine themselves. It creates a virtual world around them. Yes, there are so many benefits with the gadgets but I always felt that we should restrict its uses and start spending quality time with friends and family. Shallowness cannot bring happiness but togetherness can.

Capital Of Dreams Turns Into Capital Of Gas Chamber

2017-11-08T10:02:00.001+05:30

Welcome to the capital of gas chamber. Delhi and its suburbs turned into a gas chamber. Look at the photographs. These pics are taken early in the morning (9.30am) when people move for their jobs. In fact, in these conditions people do not move to work, they move to inhale in an open gas chamber. take a look again to the photographs, there are no sunlight, no birds, and no clear sky. Residents of Delhi NCR are experiencing smog and blame game every year. It seems there is no drastic step being taken.

However, the government of Delhi is at least thinking to implement some necessary measures, but there are no concrete and long-term steps being taken in neighbouring states. So, God bless us and hey travellers out there, think hundred times before visiting Delhi in this time of the year.

It's Choking Here..

2017-11-07T10:01:00.000+05:30

Though national Green Tribunal slammed Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana over bad ambient air quality in national capital region. But it now seems every year NGT do one thing consistently i.e slamming and after that nothing changes. People are in fact living to die a slow death in Delhi NCR.

So Called Babas And Their Religious Activities: How to Check Them?

2017-09-09T23:32:00.002+05:30

Article-25 of the Constitution of India gives fundamental right to every citizen of this country a freedom of conscience and free profession, practice and propagation of religion. In short, right to practice, follow or propagate any religion is a fundamental right protected under the Constitution of India but this right is subject to public order, morality and health and to other provisions of this part of the Constitution. Article-25 (2) (a) of the Constitution of India gives powers to the State to make law for regulating or restricting any economic, financial, political or other secular activity, which may be associated with religious practice. Thus, the State is empowered to make law for regulating the other secular aspects of religious activity.

In the given constitutional background of religious liberty and right of the State to regulate the secular activities of a religious body, one finds himself surprised with the sudden increase in the number of Godmans operating in the field of religion and their other than religious activity. Nowadays, when religion and propagation of religion is not limited to the field of religion only, rather the religion and propagation of religion has become the source of amassing wealth and political power, these Godmans are using the religion for the purposes of earning wealth and political power. For protecting such interest, they are going to any extent. The examples are not to be named but they are numerous. Sometimes, they create volatile situation for the State machinery when law enforcing agency or the Court takes action against them in accordance with law.

In the given situation, is it not a high time when the State should exercise its powers under Article-25 (2) (a) of the Constitution of India to legislate for regulating and controlling the activities of such Godmans. For instance, a limit can he fixed upto which they can hold landed property and wealth and the property and the wealth of any such Godman exceeding that limit may be confiscated. A mechanism is required to be developed to entertain complaint against such Godmans regarding their religious and other than religious activities, it can be in the form of a permanent Commission headed by an impartial person. The religious places can be searched from time to time under the supervision of such Commission in order to see as to whether any criminal or anti social activity is being conducted in these Ashrams or Deras.

Delhi's 104 Year Old Food Paradise

2017-05-28T17:53:00.001+05:30

Old Delhi is known for many things. Its ambience, old world charm, narrow lanes always tell a different story. It seems everyone has a quite a story to tell. But one thing which has a penchant for every old and new resident of Delhi is mouth watering authentic ethnic cuisine. There are many joints in and around chandni chowk but Karim's is different.

It is near to Jama Masjid gate no 1. It has a 104-year-old history of serving rare non-vegetarian delicacies to its lovers. Undoubtedly food is tasty, but I suggest, if you are going there, try mutton items, which has more flavour rather than chicken items. One must not miss mutton Burra, mutton stew, mutton korma and kababs in Karim's. But one thing pisses in the locality is unhygienic condition and very little attention to cleanliness by shopkeepers. Also approach to the market itself can push off visitors.

Street Food In Chandni Chowk

2017-05-28T16:13:00.002+05:30

Chandni Chowk has a distinct flavour during Ramadan festival. Narrow lanes in this area are filled with all type of delicacies. People go for their favourite food hunting in the streets. Life becomes alive in the evening. Take a look at the video for an interesting glimpse.

Where Is My Lunch Buddy?...

2017-04-23T17:19:00.000+05:30

Lunch Time In New Delhi

Life is busy and it is getting hectic everyday. Metros in India are now in a rush to develop modern infrastructure to push the developmental agenda of governments. iPeople are demanding more facilities and better civic amenities. Though India is still an agriculture based economy but its service class is increasing manifold every year. More office spaces are required to keep people in offices to do their jobs. One system is also developing side by side to this service sector i.e. lunch providers. When you move around in Delhi during lunch hours you can easily notice small food joints selling quick lunches to office goers. People move to these joints because they are cheap and a basic level of Indian masala food is always available.

Traditional Lunch Sellers In Metros

But these traditional food joints have started witnessing a change. Some enthusiastic people have started selling food thru food trucks. They are clean and neatly dressed. Many entrepreneurs who worked abroad came back to India and started food chains like these to cater office goers. Its a promising business. Gurugram or Gurgaon is a software hub in National Capital Region of New Delhi and it is witnessing many food trucks selling lunches like other fast growing metros. They park their food vehicles near to major office complexes where people come out during lunch hours. But still they have a long way to go. They have to work on their pricing which is a major factor in doing business in India.

Time To Change

Still, traditional food sellers are main attraction for office goers. But if they reinvent now they will survive the unseen competition from food trucks. They have a plus point i.e their food is standard Indian food with right amount of spices and taste. But, they have to focus on hygiene and cleanliness.

An Afternoon at Asia's Largest Computer Market

2017-04-13T22:25:00.002+05:30

Aisa's Largest Computer Market

Few days ago, I accidentally broke my mobile phone's display. It was shattered. I called up mobile company's customer care to know the price of display replacement. Oh boy! It was too much. I thought I can get a new mobile phone in that amount. What was options for people like me? I quickly headed to one of the biggest computer market in capital i.e. Nehru Place.
Nehru Place is near to East of Kailash colony. It is major business and commercial hub in Delhi and it is also known as Asia's largest computer market. But it is known for cheap softwares, latest gizmos, computer peripherals etc. Nothing beats Nehru Place. It is a hub of all tech solutions at one place, but it is also a biggest piracy places of India. Software piracy is so rampant in Nehru Place market that Delhi Government started many initiatives to curb it. But every time it sprung again like mushrooms. It is still flourishing. Business is kicking.

A Busy Day At Nehru Place

Pirated softwares, cheap and best softwares-hardwares, genuine softwares-hardwares, lost materials, tech solutions etc all these things will start approaching to you once you enter into this huge market. Touts and street hawkers will notice you & your sack and without asking what you are looking for they will start giving you solutions, which will be cheapest in the country for sure. Pirated softwares are so cheap that you can get a Windows 10 OS in just INR 100 and you can also get it installed on your system in another INR 100 or 200.

Pirated Softwares At A Throwaway Price

I do not support piracy and it can not be justified by any means. But companies must also think that overpriced stuff also paves the way to piracy. People want genuine products but not with injustice price company demands. By the way I got my mobile phone's display replaced in just one third price.

Yoga A Way Of Life...

2017-04-07T08:16:00.000+05:30

KIDS PRACTICING YOGA

I often think what rejuvenates a normal person...? What fills energy in them...? One fine Sunday, when I saw kids practicing yoga, I realised that this is the one moment which has the power to create so much energy and passion one can think ever. Kid's enthusiasm to embrace new things and simply try it out is so natural. When we grow older, we start pushing this natural ability behind.

That Sunday, my society's lawn was full of kids. They were practicing yoga on colourful mats and two senior citizens were teaching them. Kids were full of enthusiasm and there were cute competitiveness between them. Some of them wanted to be noticed by yoga teacher but some are very relaxed, it was like 'I am having fun'.

YOGA IS FUN

Making yoga as an international event annually on 21st June is really a great thing India has done for the mental and physical health of people. Those who are practicing it daily know that It is easy and very helpful in distressing. Now yoga has been practiced in more than 175 countries and it is fast making a place in youth's life style.

START EARLY, STAY HEALTHY WITH YOGA

Who Wants To Be In The Olympics?

2016-08-13T20:53:00.001+05:30

Whenever the prestigious Olympic comes after a hiatus of four years, one burning question rises in India - 'Why we as a nation fail in Olympics'. This time is also no exception. But the only differentiator is, first time Chinese media tried to scrutinize the causes behind it. And it is really interesting to know that they are mostly correct in their analysis. Chinese media listed out some reasons in this regard. These are poor health, poverty, lack of infrastructure, popularity of cricket over other sports, lack of information about Olympics in rural areas, vegetarianism, lack of interest among youths etc. In fact, Chinese media lambasted India's always poor show in the world's most grand event. When Chinese are saying anything about India, it is bound to make ripples. But surprisingly Indian leaders, sports ministry and in fact, media too are already aware of these hard hitting facts.

India

is a country of over one billion people. But they are not capable to bring handful of medals from Olympics.

India

's sports federations are run by bureaucrats and ministers who have zero knowledge about games. What could be more inglorious for country is that Union Sports minister of

India

Mr. Vijay Goel was threatened by Rio 2016 organising committee to cancel his accreditation on grounds of misbehavior and trying to enter venues with his entourage without no valid passes. Though minister rejected these allegation but this can easily explain how much

India

is serious about promoting sports in the country where leaders grab every single opportunity to just go to the games in a foreign country with their huge entourage which has no interest in games. Their only intention and attention were to have free dalliance.

But despite all odds, individually some sportspersons are making the difference. Yes they are few but their success at many international tournaments brought some hope and government attention. But government and their machinery have a lot of things to do to develop a fair sports atmosphere in

India

. There are many budding talents but their hard work always goes in vain. Government has to keep its eyes wide open and start striking right notes to bring hope among sportspersons.

Jobs on India

2015-06-07T17:43:00.001+05:30

With the deeper penetration of gadgets into our life, we surely started reading and watching a lot of stuff online. But in the chaos of being everything online, somewhere we are leaving good habits of substantial reading. A good book have the charisma to transcend its reader into a different world. It can unearth the world of knowledge, imagination, passion and wisdom. It's always good to read and learn about great personalities. Their perspective of life is very much different from what an average person usually perceives. Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs is extensive but one can enjoy every bit of it. Jobs spent seven months in India roaming in Delhi, Haridwar, villages around nainital and in Manali. According to book, later he said about the trip to India as-

"The people in the Indian countryside don't use their intellect like we do, they use their intuition instead, and their intuition is far more developed than in the rest of the world".

I Want To Make It Big

2015-03-23T22:25:00.000+05:30

There are two types of people in this world. One is pessimist and another is optimist. Sanjay is the second type. He is full of hope for a brighter future. Sanjay is a mechanic and runs a car service center in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. His shop is small but he has really big ideas for life. He recalls that day in year 2000, when his family sold some of their farm land to the government. They got money in the form of compensation. But instead of spending on luxury they built their house and invested in his older brother Rajeev’s car service center business. That paid off and later Rajeev started pushing Sanjay to learn car repairing techniques.

Sanjay is the second in the family. He has two younger brothers. He smiles and says, he is the only person who went to complete 8^th standard in school. But this never bothers him. Sanjay believes more than education one needs to be aware things around them and grab rightful opportunities without hesitating.

Now Sanjay want to take a big leap in the future. Along with brothers, Sanjay enthusiastically want to venture into a car service dealership form India’s number one car company. For this, he is hopeful of raising huge amount of money. Sanjay says, one should think big to achieve big. His little eyes are full of dreams...
