Happy birthday India
Dr. Manmohan Singh after hosting the flag, sent out a positive Independence Day message that India had self faith, political stability and economic strength to march towards “a golden future."
The Prime Minister calls for a “new era of cooperation and harmony in our national life.” Asserting that people had rejected in the last election sectarian politics and have “chosen a political arrangement which is secular,” the Prime Minister promises to take every one along and to create “an environment of consensus and cooperation in the country.”
I had bought a flag yesterday a small one and hosted it my self in my room. It really fells great seeing the flag waving. TV channels where playing the national anthem and monophonic vande Matharam. These days remind us the sacrifices of great leaders and soldiers.
TV also were showing patriotic movies like RDB and swadesh to lure the public in a social realm.
Jai Hind!

Why No House for Emraan?
Emraan Hashmi rejected a house in Mumbai. It was told that as he
is a muslim he is not welcome in housing society.It brings a shocking revelation . This has been the case in many places in India, My brother has been
searching a flat in Salt lake calcutta and he is being denied it everywhere he goes.
"Being a celebrity if I'm facing problems in buying a house here,
I wonder what kind of problems others would have been facing.
All the time we are talking about secularism but with such incidents what secularism are people talking about?" asked Emraan.
"Even 62 years after independence, the virus of communalism is alive in an area like Pali Hill, which is known as India's Beverly Hills. It's a serious problem and is the country ready to accept that communal ism is still surviving?" Emraan said.
It may be a personal fight by Emraan to get a house, but it brings a dirty truth out. What there is so much discrimination against Muslims?

Helping the blind
After a long time I had gone for charitable work. This service is done through my company,HP .It is associated with Sahana Charitable trust for disabled. In this we have to go and read a textbook and the blind person will type it into a special type writer Braille. Each Braille character or cell is made up of six dot positions, arranged in a rectangle containing two columns of three dots each. A dot may be raised at any of the six positions to form sixty-four (26) permutations, including the arrangement in which no dots are raised. For reference purposes, a particular permutation may be described by naming the positions where dots are raised, the positions being universally numbered 1 to 3, from top to bottom, on the left, and 4 to 6, from top to bottom, on the right. For example, dots 1-3-4 would describe a cell with three dots raised, at the top and bottom in the left column and on top of the right column, i.e., the letter m
The special books that are printed are distributed all over Karnataka. I was reading to a blind person called V.K he is blind and has to support a family of 4. He travels for 2 hrs daily. What a life! Sahana Charitable trust for disabled have employed many blind people to print books to teach the blind through out Karnataka.

Elections – 2009 – Post 1
I have been closely following elections 2009. It has been divided into 5 phases starting April 16th, April 23rd ,April 30th , May 6thand May 13th and counting is on May 16 th.
There are many issues for the next government; mainly it’s the recession and security. UPA seems to be a strong contender with nuclear deal in its feather cap. Also the way they dealt with recession. India is least affected by recession. The area where UPA mainly congress lies behind is in home security and its foreign policy. The Congress has also promised to enact a Right to Food law that guarantees food for all. It has announced that every family living below the poverty line will be entitled to 25 kg of rice or wheat per month at Rs 3 per kg. The manifesto promises subsidised community kitchens, which will be set up in all cities for homeless people and migrants, with the support of the central government.
NDA is backing on its Hinidutva policy and the economic progress it had done in it tenure. They expect Modi’s policy in Gujarat for replication in whole India. The odds against BJP are Gujarat rites and the terrorist activities in their tenure. BJP promises a new POTA-like law and also woos the poor and middle class with many promises. Also promises like All BPL families to get 35kg of rice or wheat every month at Rs 2 per kg and Ensure farm loans at a maximum interest rate of 4 percent.
The Third Front, which will be amalgamation of eight parties including Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India Marxists (CPM), Forward Block, RPI, TDP, TRS, All India Anna Dravida Munetra Kazagam (AIADMK) and JD(S).They all are anti congress and anti BJP . True, neither Congress nor the BJP is strong enough to win a majority alone; the influence of both parties has been eroded by the emergence of a plethora of parties tied to Various regions, castes and ideologies. Yet the fragmentation of Indian politics that has weakened the two national parties and made possible the emergence of the Third Front is also a threat to the cohesion and staying power of the new alliance itself. Even if the Third Front does well enough at the polls to win over more supporters and form a government, it would almost certainly be fatally weakened by internecine bickering, policy dissension and leadership clashes.
My views about Whats good for the country and which party will do the best and Also about pre-poll analysis and voter’s turnout percentage effect on election result in Election 2009Post-2.

Atlast Some Peace
Hamas and several allied Palestinian factions have announced an immediate one-week ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, giving Israel seven days to pull out of the territory.
The move, following a meeting of the factions in Damascus, comes a day after Israel called a unilateral truce, ending its 22-day offensive in Gaza which led to the deaths of 1,203 Palestinians.
"We in the Palestinian resistance movements announce a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and demand that enemy forces withdraw in a week and open all the border crossings to permit the entry of humanitarian aid and basic goods," Mussa Abu Marzuk, deputy leader of Hamas's political bureau, said in Damascus on Sunday.
However, Ayman Mohyeldin, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Gaza City, said some in the Gaza Strip are claiming a victory for Hamas and other Palestinian factions.
"On an operational level on the last day of the war and even after the war Palestinian factions are still capable of firing rockets, no doubt about that.
Hamas and Israel declared independent ceasefires each with separate terms [AFP]"In fact, more than a dozen or so have been fired today according to the factions here on the ground.
"On a symbolic level, at the end of the day the Palestinian people remain here on the ground, having paid a very heavy price though.
"Their position was one of steadfast defiance. The fact that they can stay and essentially ... claim that they have been able to stave off this aggression, in terms of the leadership and the command and control structure of Hamas and the government here, is certainly a sign for many here that they have been victorious."

It’s time for business
We need millions of jobs for our young population. It is important to empower local entrepreneurship with constant support from government and industry
In the recently concluded World Entrepreneurship Forum at Evian, France, it was discussed how entrepreneurs are the creators of economic wealth and social justice. Today the world is facing challenges like rising population, poverty, changes in business environment and emerging countries gaining significant economic strength. It is perceived that creation and distribution of wealth is the key to our future. Innovation led entrepreneurship initiatives, which will create not only economic wealth, but also social justice, are ideally placed to take up these challenges. Entrepreneurship is a context-sensitive phenomenon. For example the start-upbusiness- model which works well in Spain may not work in India. The business opportunities are dependent on level of development of the economy and prevailing cultural and social context. Atamer (2007) proposed three types of economic and cultural environments, referred to as 'ethos', which condition entrepreneurship: The free market system or ethos: Economic wealth is created and distributed by the market. This is the Anglo-Saxon Model. The cooperative system or ethos: The state plays an important role in the redistribution of wealth that is created mainly by the market. Numerous European countries, including France, function in this way. The parallel system or ethos: Neither the state nor the market play the leading role. Wealth and social justice are created locally and are based on membership of social groups. This is the situation in emerging countries, including the famous 'BRIC' (Brazil, Russia, India and China). During recessionary times, thinkers across the world are having common consent that new business models should emerge for creation of new jobs, new opportunities and new ideas. In India itself we need millions of jobs for our young population. It is important for us to empower the local entrepreneurship with constant support/mentorship from government and industry. The best examples of our home-grown local entrepreneurship activities becoming the large corporate houses who are providing employment to millions of people are Reliance, Nirma, Infosys, HCL to name a few. Many academic institutions like Babson College, USA; Emloyn Business School, France; University of Essex Business School, UK; Europe Asia Business School, India; are promoting entrepreneurship education through various ways. For instance, EABS has started an entrepreneurship club where students are encouraged to start an enterprise in controlled environment with their fellow classmates and faculty members as consultants. Students have the option of taking the enterprise to the next level of venture capital funding if they are satisfied with the progress during the one year. Such enterprises not only help students in understanding the complexities of business but also help them in creating wealth and employments for generations to come.

Save Palestinians
I discover that Israelis have a hidden empathy to what Palestinians have experienced for the past 60 years. In my opinion, this is a proof that this conflict isn't only a colonial conflict over lands, but most importantly it's a conflict about the national identity which is connected to the land. Deep at heart, every Israeli Jew suspects that the Zionist narrative to be farce. However, because Israel was created by usurping Palestinian rights, Israelis and most Jews find it necessary to deny Palestinians of their national rights and identity. This Israeli insecurity (or paranoia) increases whenever Palestinians assert their national identity (i.e. resistance to colonialism, demanding the right of return, ..etc) because it reaffirms that this is a conflict that will transcend generations.

The Elements
Elements is a restaraunt on the Nandidurg main road, near Jayamahal Road.Its a little far from the main city. It feels surprisingly cozy and secluded because of the well-designed entrance area. You walk in, and the first thing you see is a yummy-looking chocolate counter (they take large orders) on your right. The restaurant (ground and first floor) is interestingly designed. A rough-hewn wood staircase takes you upstairs. The décor is wood and earth, with an ethnic touch. The look is carried through the low tables, benches and chairs, with comfy bolsters and cushions. Very nice.The crowd is young, college groups chilling round a hookah, yuppies from the offices nearby and couples .
There’s varied and interesting continental fare, with bakes, steaks, sizzlers. And ample choice for vegetarians. We tried some of their very original mocktails, served in glasses to match. The Coconut Cooler, a simple coconut water with a dash of lime proved the most refreshing. The food’s very good, but not terribly consistent.
8 of us from my batch at BIT, Mesra had a get together there we ordered steaks and barbeque chicken. Eat till max and bill just came arround 2800. We’re definitely coming back for more.
