Mangalore Air Tragedy

I learnt that Mangalore Air accident was worst one for India in last 10 years. 160+ people lost their life, 8 people escaped. Lot of theories are being discussed in news channels....what they will do. Is it due to pilot landed in 2000 ft instead of 1000 ft or is he over stressed or is it over speed ...what went wrong ? as i type this, i m seeing the latest news that the throttle was found in forward position, which means that the pilot would have tried to take off again. How can 10000 hrs experianced pilot , who landed in mangalore for 19 times could do that. All i wish is that the government take necessary steps to make sure that such a tragedynever repeat anywhere in the world.

Downey Jr. did it again

i and my cousin watched Iron Man 2 recently. it was very entertaining. I really liked Paltrow's matured acting. Lot of drama, emotional touches, action. it is a good action packaged entertainer, but nothing new at all.

The Cult of Vishy

I admire the modest of Viswanathan Anand, even after winning the World Chess Championship. I would call him as humble living legend & real hero of Indian Sports. He set role model for determination. Congratulations V.Anand !!

Is IPL reason for INDIA's failure at T20 World cup

Dhoni have spoken about parties , IPL, Travels etc., as a reason for Failure for India in the recent T20 world cup. But, is that true ? We call it as Level loading, boys should have fun, but more important to know which is needed or basic expectation from the fan. Its just a game. We will certainly have ups and downs..dont worry boys, concentrate and have fun..

Kind Attention Mr. Prime Minister

First it was Tharoor, now it is Jayram Ramesh. After a year, I feel there is lack of self discipline among the members of UPA, specially the ministers. Jayram Ramesh's comments on Home affairs during his China trip about India's approach towards China is UNWANTED and UNCALLED for. Each Ministers need to look and develop the portfolio allocated to them. Have they done enough. Do they know what TEAM WORK means. These comments not only dilute our foreign policies but also our internal security. Let us first learn to WORK TOGETHER as a Team but better development of our Nation, please don't gain person scores and play politics here.

Way to go Dr. Singh and Dr. Sibal

I heard some one saying "Right to Education Act is the greatest policy announcement after declaration of Indian Independence"…That’s very true.
Addressing the nation on the Right to Education Act that come into force today, Dr. Singh said: “The Government is committed to ensuring that all children irrespective of gender and social category, have access to education and, fund constraints would not be allowed to hamper implementation of the Right to Education Act.”
“To realise the Right to Education, the Government at the Centre, in the States and Union Territories, and at the district and village level, must work together as part of a common national endeavour. I call upon all the State Governments to join in this national effort with full resolve and determination,” he added. He also said Dalits, the minorities and girls would be the focus of the effort to provide education to all. Looking back at his own life, Dr. Singh said he came from a family of modest means. He had to walk a long way to school and studied under a kerosene lamp.
“Today, What I am, I am because of education. So, I want that the light of education should reach to all,” he added.Great Job Dr. Singh and Dr. Sibal. This is great act and will help us if rightly implemented by the state government.
