Respect Cash in Cashless Economy

Image
                  Every Indian, be it Literate or Illiterate, should have been able to explain something about the word 'Cashless'. Thanks to euphoria created by our Prime Minister Modi around Digital India Dreams. Despite Modi, more to it like movie comedies with beggars carrying PoS machines, villages in media flash to first go cashless, (Demon)etisation pushing it hard enough. There has to be something out of it. Otherwise it would have never got such public fraternity right ? Barring with claims of so-called Stoppage of Terror funding and Counterfeit controlling, the most important outcomes genuinely are Black Money Regulation and Organizedness in economy. Latter meaning simply that whatever happens in economy, monetarily and financially, its completely visible for government. Does that sound sweet enough ? This is what a Common man's Financial murmuring been, 'Kodi kodiya adikaravana lam vutrunga !!' ('Leave those who loot in crores'). ...

Real race is yet to start in Education!!!

Image
             An Education system should be pushing students to think, to create, to regulate, to manage, to empathize. But in India, it has been propounded on the principles of raw knowledge. WHEN you use it, HOW you use it, WHY you use it has always been a big hovering question around this system. They are given Books, taught in classes by Teachers and questions quite straight forward such that except time and speed of writing, nothing much to work upon. We are not tested much for conceptual understanding.              Students are experts in sticking to what system wants. They learn the way the system wants, reproduce as the system expects. All future education opportunities relying on such a system's outcome easily moulds students towards such rote learning. Schools too have set the path at earnest perfection towards producing marks and creates methods to score marks as the only objective. So participants of this...

Do India really need a National language?

Image
                              I am not writing this to justify Hindi should not be the National Language. Because it is not already. Its officially the Official language. So why does India require a national language ? Its because a Tamilian can fluently complaint to a Delhi Minister or a Maharashtrian to sell Jio sim easily in North east or a Tribal can greet a Punjabi Ecotourist like 'Kaise ho (How are you)' or every citizen starts understanding the meaning of each central government scheme or its that PM can address people in a bid to ensure 'The nation wants to know (what he speaks)'. I tried hindi and somehow learnt that sound 'gaha'. I faced this problem when I was about to sing a Hindi song in my company's culturals. But does it stop at reproducing 'gaha' or is there any more to it ? No, but can it be or should it be ?                       ...

Has Indian Democracy become Democrazy enough ??

Image
                  This one particular topic came to my mind because of the mindset of governance in India. Whenever India says its the largest democracy in world, it means that every act of governance is for people's welfare. But it should also mean how much people has perceived it like that !! Its very important for people as the primary contestant in democracy !! This gives them the order of Socrates automatically to understand and perceive governance ways. If governance in turn do not perceive it in right way, then its perceiving the democracy itself wrongly. Ufff wats really Reality is ??                     Media is one big way to analyse such demographic perception of governance. But its objective remains farther from depicting reality. Paid/Fake news has taken a new form called 'Distraction' news. Exaggeration and continuous feeding of information has been used to either shape u...

Whom else should I Vote ??

Image
                                A Pan-India question highly vocal in last decade. Despite being conscious-victims to Money/Caste/Religion/Dynasty-based politics, they always do that with this dilemma. Victims range from middle to poor classes of society. Lots of cinemas (especially Tamil ones) have repeatedly exclaimed the situation that it has become a cliche I wonder !! Whenever they feel being cheated by the government, they would raise a strong opinion not to vote for it next time. Like the "Ball in your court" idiom, alternative governments still continues as the norm. During every election day, our dilemma latches on our back like the Vikramaditya-Vedhalam story. As the solution for dilemma comes for the debate in Tea Shop parliament, after a long usual ruckus as it happens in real parliament, Tea shop parliamentarians comes to that usual conclusion - "Enatha paesunalum vera vazhi illa !!" ("Neverthel...
