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...

(St Thomas Major Archiepiscopal Church in Palayur. This is one of the seven Churches founded by the Apostle St Thomas in  AD 52. (Image courtesy, Wikipedia) The matter which was confined within the Church for sometime has been now taken over by the police and the press. I, therefore, dare to talk the matter in public. This is meant to have the attention of the entire hierarchy of the Church. I would like to believe that as  true disciples of Jesus Christ they may honestly find ways and means to get over the present dilemma. While getting into the issue, we may find that the present controversy has surfaced consequent upon the decision for a uniform celebration of the Holy Mass. According to this the priest celebrating the Holy Mass will face the faithful at the beginning and end of the Mass and the rest of the time he may face the Altar. In the light of the Holy Bible it can be neither said good nor bad. But the matter that worsen the situation is the urgency shown...

Exchange rate in 1947 was 1 rupee = 1 US Dollar. Since then though it never gone to that level, both remained in close range.  However since the devaluation of Indian rupee in 1992 it kept falling continuously. Today's exchange rate is 1 US$ = Rs 81.96 Now, Indian economy is fairly doing well but our rupee is not picking up at that level. On the other hand, while US economy is not making any quantum leap the exchange rates of USD is keep mounting versus almost all other currencies. It is because of its demands world over. Currency exchange rate is decided like the price of essential commodities under demand and supply theory. If Rupee can reach more heights that will reduce the dependency on the dollar considerably and on the other hand it will provide us better bargaining power.  When this can reduce the cost of export and bring in more earning from international trade. Since this can appreciate the demand of rupee there will be less risk of purchase price of good...

Many people may come up with a positive answer to this question, but I feel hardly anyone can love others. Love is something that is to give only, not to expect anything back; even love. Normally our love for any person contains at least an element of selfishness, greed or ego. Can we love someone who is abusing us with filthy language or one who is severely beating us? I don't think that we can love such a person. Hence our love become conditional. We may act as loving them back to those who are acting as loving us. Love is divine. God alone can love all of us unconditionally. Despite our incapability, if we realise the truth and pray the Supreme One, He may help us to have genuine and everlasting love. K V George
