There is an unending stream of announcements of huge new projects each with a proposed investment running to billions of rupees. While nobody can question the sincerity of government's intentions, the mere size of such a huge investment, all at the same time all over the country, makes one wonder about how efficiently all these projects will be planned, started and completed in time. Do we have the necessary management efficiency in government officials? How strictly money flow will be controlled and tenders accepted? In all govt projects it has been the experience in the past of time over runs of  several years and even decades! Is there going to be any in built methods to avoid this? Details on these topics along with at least a quarterly report on the progress made and what is proposed to be done in the next quarter, will create a great lot of sustained interest of people on these projects and also shut the mouth of incessant criticizers

WHAT SHOULD BJP DO FOR WINNING TAMIL NADU? BJP should just tell in detail about its plans for the nation & in particular for the State and need not at all get into fight with either AIADMK or DMK. It should not even bother to respond to any frivolous accusations from them, especially from DMK, because it is no more a viable party even with its associates, Congress and communists. Tamils know everything about Amma Jayalalitha whereas they don't know much about BJP even today, because most of them don't know Hindi and many not even English. A vigorous campaign highlighting plans for progress will get them enough votes to be the main opposition this time around and when the plans are complete, may be it will become the ruling party in the election after the forthcoming one. If possible it should avoid AIADMK as even the major partner, because irrespective of its progressive policies which have borne fruits to Tamil Nadu, AIADMK's first name is Entrenched Corruption...

Ladies are the same everywhere, in he USA or in India! Jeffrey Sinclair, a serving Brigadier General of US Army is charged with sexual assault & 2 more charges. Military prosecutors are bargaining with him to plead guilty to a charge of 'mistreatment' to avoid court proceedings! Don't blame Indian judiciary! It is a hundred times better. The problem with us is we in the USA, love cutting a 'deal' for anything! You can murder someone in cold blood in a small county and if you can engage a famous lawyer to defend by paying millions of dollars in fees, the county will be happy to allow you to plead guilty to  lesser crime, such as manslaughter or even unintended killing or self defense! Because the county cannot afford to reimburse your lawyer's fees just in case it loses the case! Shame on this plea bargaining process. Shame on our boasting that in the eyes of our law, all are equal. Of course, we are equal if everyone can afford to pay a big fat l...

The Five Stages to ‘Nirvana’ Criminals are not born, we develop them. After a criminal is caught for the first time and punished,  either the criminal reforms when the punishment is beyond tolerance; or gets more and more used to punishment, if the benefit from the criminal act is more than the quantum of punishment. This system produces a few hardened criminals, but somewhat effective, for lack of any other tried and tested method. However, it has not been popular because of the reluctance of legislators and courts, on humanitarian grounds and growing entrenched corruption in the enforcement apparatus which helped criminals. Second stage :  Human beings preferred to live in SMALL groups, as it was found to be better than living alone. This process led to bigger and bigger groups with their ways and habits of living, depending on their circumstances. Problems arose when the groups got bigger than the benefits available to them as a group. Since there was no way anymore...
