Whose problem is it anyway????

Here is an article from one of India's leading news channel.
Its heading 'Schoolgirl paraded naked for not paying fee'.

Below is the escalation channel for this 'shame' , and wonder whose problem is it anyway!?

Police (Law enforcement)
^
National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (aka social organization)
^
Principal
^
Teacher
^
Parents
^
School girl

Well..well.. any guess is a good guess....and that is not the point here.

It’s pathetic and appalling that such a socio-economic discrimination is prevalent in India. All that is for sure is that laws exist in very dignified form in India, and on the streets these laws are least respected and very least protected.

What else to say, other than condemn it as shameful and distasteful. And try forgetting it temporarily thinking whose problem is it anyway!

Solitary Reaper

In a mood to read 'The Solitary Reaper' by Sir William Wordsworth.....

BEHOLD her, single in the field,
Yon solitary Highland Lass!
Reaping and singing by herself;
Stop here, or gently pass!
Alone she cuts and binds the grain,

And sings a melancholy strain;
O listen! for the Vale profound
Is overflowing with the sound.

No Nightingale did ever chaunt
More welcome notes to weary bands
Of travellers in some shady haunt,
Among Arabian sands:
A voice so thrilling ne'er was heard
In spring-time from the Cuckoo-bird,
Breaking the silence of the seas
Among the farthest Hebrides.

Will no one tell me what she sings?—
Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow
For old, unhappy, far-off things,
And battles long ago:
Or is it some more humble lay,
Familiar matter of to-day?
Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,
That has been, and may be again?

Whate'er the theme, the Maiden sang
As if her song could have no ending;
I saw her singing at her work,
And o'er the sickle bending;—
I listen'd, motionless and still;
And, as I mounted up the hill,
The music in my heart I bore,
Long after it was heard no more.

New ideas for an economic 'super' horse

Here is a wonderfully thought, well structured ideas from Mr. Nandan Nilekani, visionary co-founder of Infosys, earlier this year for charging a new economic 'super' horse- India!

No, I cannot delete History

Where can you hear this "No, I cannot delete History".

a) In your office

b) By politician

c) By publisher

d) By God

Well...I heard this at office. A coworker was shouting out...'No, I cannot delete History'...I walked by with my cup of coffee, only to see that the coworker was shouting over the phone to a IT Support person on the other end. It was that she was not able to delete the history in IE web browser.

Whew!

What a generation we are living in. History can be erased!!!
