Normal And Abnormal

It  is the most appropriate time that we must ask this question to ourselves. USA, one of the strongest democratic nation in the world have a two party system. Small countries like Zimbabwe, Jamaica, Bahamas and Malta have established two party systems. In UK, since 1920, there are two parties in the front. Those are Conservative party and the Labour party. However there is another party called Liberal  party too in the arena, but they stand with the conservatives. One of the best managed and happiest countries in the world, New Zealand has different electoral systems. New Zealanders have two votes; one for electing the Member of Parliament and the other for one of the recognised parties. Iceland is one of the safest countries for women in the world. Women have equality there in true sense. With all these, Iceland have a multi party system.  There are 63 members in the parliament representing different parties. However, once elected as Members of Parliament, t...

It may not be certain that the alleged one is the actual killer or not in the Lakhimpur Kheri episode. Still the police is reluctant to pick and question the accused. As per our past experience there may be nothing new. for the people of they find a news any time that the accused is absconding. Police has nothing to do in this matter probably. The drama is taking place in the upper floor. All these are happening here because the image of the political party is more precious than human life in India. There is no use discussing the matter at every nook and corner of the country. Nothing will happen. Media may bring the news with  bolder letters. They may write some editorials too. But the criminal may move Scot free. We say for name sake that we are a democratic country. Our democracy had died long back and the body is decayed and started stinking. We cannot bring this back to life. Rather we may find a healthier and stronger one in it's place. We must ensure that this is...

Mosquitoes  can breed in wide variety of environments including in the extreme cold climates like Antarctic region. But mosquitoes cannot definitely not breed in Iceland. There are about 2500 species of mosquitoes in the world. Wet and humid environment suit them the best. Hence they are found less and less in arctic and antartic regions. Scientists studied the matter quite well and their findings are interesting. They say that these insects can survive climate that is hotter or colder than Iceland but not the one that is in this country. Another reason they find is that some particular chemical is contained in the soil and water of Iceland. However consequent upon the global warming by the melting of glaciers the ecology and climate of that region too may change. If that is so mosquitoes are on their way to Iceland. We may have envy on the fortune of Iceland when we know that about 8,30,000 people are killed by by this deadly insects every year in South Africa, Central...

(Church of Notre-Dame-de-I'Assomption, 13th century, parish Catholic Church located in Auvers-sur-Oise, in French department of Val-d'Oise, France. Church painted by Van Gogh)   (News report by TOI dated 5.10.21) Recent   BBC report shows that some 2,16,000 children, mostly boys,  have been sexually abused by clergy in the French Catholic Church since 1950, a damning new inquiry has found. The head of the inquiry is reported to have said there were at least 2,900 - 3,200 abusers and accused the church of showing "a cruel indifference towards the victims." Pope Francis "felt pain" on hearing about the inquiry's finding, a Vatican statement said. One of those abused said it was time the Church reassessed it's actions.  The inquiry found the numbers of children abused in France could rise to 3,30,000 when taking into account abuses committed by lay members of the Church, such as teachers at Catholic schools. From Australian count...

Wealth of country is nothing but the natural resources available and the people available to exploit those. India is fortunately rich in these two, but unfortunately many Indians still remain poor. The current population of India is estimated to be 1.39 billion. The Pew Research Center, using World Bank data, has estimated that the number of poor in India (with income of $2 per day or less in purchasing power parity) has more than doubled to 134 million from 60 million in just a year due to the pandemic induced recession. In the recent years, India emerged as a country with the highest rate of poverty reduction. In 2019, the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index reported that India lifted 271 million citizens out of poverty between 2006 and 2016. Contrast to this with the situation in 2020: the highest global poverty increase happened in India. A report by the Indian Express says - our estimates show that around 150-199 million additional people will fall into poverty this ...

Today's media report shows that cooking gas price has gone beyond Rs 900/- per cylinder. Petrol and diesel prices have already become unaffordable for most Indians. Still the government is relentlessly going on hiking the prices. People elect a government for the well being of the people. The government is totally ignoring the sentiments of the people. Due to this unprecedented hike of fuel, cost of almost all essential commodities have multiplied comparing the prices of the past few years. On behalf of the poor and middle class Indian citizens it is earnestly requested to the government of India to look into the following on red hot priority. 1. Bring down the taxes of petrol, diesel and cooking gas as much as possible so that they become affordable to the common man of the country. 2. Explore the possibilities of cheaper crude from other sources like Venezuela and Iran. 3. We should extensively commence oil exploration. Try to include private agencies from India as we...

The simple meaning of Clairvoyance, the French word, is - clear vision. Clairvoyance is the claimed ability to gain information about an object, person, location or physical event through extrasensory perception. Any person who is claimed to have such ability is said accordingly to be a Clairvoyant (Wikipedia). It can be further explained as knowledge of information not necessarily known to any other person, not obtained by any other channels of perceiving or  reasoning. In short it can be said as a form of extrasesory perception (ESP) We may find some true stories.  At the age of 3, Kristy Robinett predicted her grandmother's death.
