No sooner the coalition government in India led by Congress took over they came out with a volley of promises for the people in the country fixing up a hundred days target to exhibit their worth. The first gift they showered on public was a bumper increase in fuel rates and, as if this was not enough, they hurriedly presented their current budget drastically smashing the total economic order in the market including share market which broke their record of eight months plus in going downward. Prices of food commodities and vegetables have gone up at double their earlier rates and no body is certain yet as to what is further in store to cause problems to the people.

Getting rid of chatting masters
Go for a stroll or some walking exercise in a park, there are people who virtually gherao you for talks with them. Chatting masters as they are their talks are unending and their topics are endless starting from their house hold matters to politics at the national level. They refuse to realize that some one who is on a walk with the purpose of some exercise may not be in a mood to transgress from a peace mode of his mental status to unruly conversations. Most of them come from retired category of employees from different departments. I wonder how come the people, even if they are no more in active service, can't engage themselves in some activity or the other in a positive order instead of acting as intruders to the peace zone of others. Business talks or conversations on serious subjects are matters of a specific schedule to be organized appropriately and there is no reason for any one to act as free stylers disturbing others.

Plucking eyebrows
Plucking eyebrows to keep a good look is not a new thing for women but the very religion of Sikkhism prohibits such a practice branding it as an anti religion activity. A girl was denied admission to MBBS course at Sri Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences and Research at Amritsar on the grounds that she was involved in anti Sikkhism activity as she used to do the plucking of her eye brows as a part of her routine facial makeup. Point of consolation is that the Sikh priests did not issue any fatwa like certain other religions do for every thing minor or major. The current generation of women is more conscious of their look and fitness and plucking eyebrows is done by them to suitably size it to a tidy frame without allowing them to go unshorn. What is wrong in it ?

Does lust have any relationship with age
An 87 years old accused facing the charges of rape was granted bail by the Court as the media coverage speaks out. No wonder as granting bail to any accused on any count howsoever serious be the charges against him/ her is what happens very often in our country. The other side of this news that a man in his later eightees found himself lusty enough to go for a rape. Rape is supposed to be more aggressive an act of sexual involvement compared to normal sex as it is without any compromise where the man concerned is required to be not only more aggressive but more energetic too and application of the both by a man at 87 is some thing difficult to comprehensively analyze. Energy and stamina apart, the story in any case speaks volumes on amount of the lust the accused might have had.

No profile is big or small
After the new government in India took over the charge of governance there has been a tough fighting on portfolios with every one trying hard get an important most ministerial assignment. Farooq Abdullah, ex Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir and a heavy weight in politics, was quite positive when he said while reacting to allocation of energy ministry to him that it is not the profile that is big or small but it is the performance that counts. Where ever one is he is to perform well and if he can't do it better it is always better for him to quit. Either work well or quit and there should be nothing else in between. Well said. Actually those who are to judge such performance also should not suffer from any prejudices and work alone has to be the basis for them to adjudge the merit of the performers.

Marriage bells for Sania Mirza
Sania Mirza, the great tennis sensation, is now likely to tie her marriage knot with a Hyderabad boy and the chances are that she may quit sports after she is married. Why should she quit after marriage when she is in an enviable form of health and knows well as a sports woman as to how a required health wise fitness for the purpose is maintained. As a great sports woman she has given laurels to the country and her continuing as such is sure to add further image to herself and the nation. After all it is all a personal matter where her's has to be the final word. On our turn we wish her all the best on both the counts -her sports career, her marriage.

Calls from the dark
Known as the boon of the modern era mobile phones are recognized as a tool for multifarious activities and utilities. No good is there without some element of bad in it in the background and so are mobile phones. Contacting, talking, chatting, setting alarms and enjoying music all is there in the tiny tool but occasions are not rare when it is annoying and irritating. You are on an important business schedule, as a gentle man you prefer not to switch off the instrument from the point of view that no important communication should remain unattended and then there is a ring from some where, the callers being mostly the girls, giving you the whisper of '..dear darling, how sweet you are..' and by the time you normalize yourself to mentally fit into such an unexpected message the call is cut. You take a sigh of relief. This relief is short lived as after a few seconds the call is there again with some more romantically silky words. You have no go but to switch off your mobile. Such a trespassing is a routine for many and I wonder how difficult it is to identify such callers from the dark.
