Baba Ramdev: Credible Enough?

If Baba Ramdev is to be believed then AIDS can be cured by his yoga teaching and ayurvedic drugs acclaimed by him. In fact he had also said that he detests homosexuality which is not natural and can be cured by his yoga practices. Furthermore he had also claimed that various types of cancers viz. brain, liver, breast, prostate etc. can be eradicated through his breathing practices. By all this, it may soon come to our ears and eyes that yoga and ayurveda are the breakthrough panacea. You are to judge.

Didi’s Faux Pas

A very nonsensical and ludicrous misdeed has warped Mamata Banerjee’s public image. When questioned by a comman man about what steps she was taking to help the farmers, she got him arrested immediately. This was completely ridiculous and imbecile act of her. She did not even care about the ramifictions its going have. And the expected happened. The incident has spooked defamatory comments from opposition as well as from public.

Olympics and India

Sushil Kumar rose to the expectations of a billion people. He has clinched a silver medal in 66Kg freestyle wrestling. With this India’s medal score reaches a total of 6, which is still a record. Yeah that the irony. A nation of 1.2 billion will have to carry this until the next Olympics. With USA bagging over a 100 medals and China near to 80, it is an utter ignominy for India. So who is to blame. The government? Who is always to busy doing nothing or gloating over puny successes. Or Media? Who is a cricketomanic. Or its ultimately us who do not want anything to prosper as cricket. Its high time we should respect, encourage and support other sports and for the government to incentivize sports through sports education, training, funding and media coverage.

Teach For India

Teach for India initiative is a highly noble deed towards the empowerment of the children from the weaker societies in terms of education and also opportunities. Since they reportedly have a rigorous selection process which considers only graduates and has reasonable stipends, the initiative is bound to work and ameliorate the pathetic education scenario in India. We hope this programme will lower the high school fallout rate and also incentivize the working class to send their children to schools.
