It can be found from the above description that whether it is Christianity, Islam or Hinduism, none could prevent crimes among their own people. The purpose of most of the religions have become the existence of the religions themselves. Most of them have turned to be like corporate bodies. While many of the governments themselves are nurturing crime among their own people and religions have failed to provide any positive contribution, it is for the people to come ahead to shape up a crime free society by remoulding the existing educational system as a whole.

DO WE NEED TRADE UNIONS ANY MORE?

Image
Finally the communist government have forced to impose curbs on the Trade Unions in the state to mitigate the unbearable actions taken by them. Trade Unions have come into being when employees were put on hardships by the employers. The time have been changed since then. Now it is our own government and our own laws. All safety, security and welfare measures are ensured for the employee of all types. No third party is now required to safeguard justice for employees. Appropriate forums are established for employees to register their complaints either singularly or jointly. Therefore, as far as employees are concerned, they do not need any assistance from Trade Unions today. Trade Unions are now functioning as power centres of political parties. If the government is willing to stand with the people, then they can ban all Trade Unions activities in the state/country. Trade Unions today make negative contributions to the economy of the state and the country as a whole. Infact t
