Sling shot the funding for research & development

The last injection in the mother of all sling shots for Mars orbiter ‘Mangalyaan’ is a big achievement for Indian Space Organization. The orbiter, on its way to the Mars, has to go through many maneuvers. Every maneuver is crucial as the success or failure of the whole mission depends on the success or failure of each maneuver. Therefore the success of any maneuver is well received by the scientific fraternity as well as from the people who are very enthusiast for the country’s big leap into the space programmes. Reason to cheer but still we have to wait till 24th September 2014 when the orbiter will enter into Mars.


CNR Rao’s call for more induction in the funds from the Government for research in science and technology is completely in sync with the reality that India has rich pool of talent and learned and they are running the organizations across the globe. So there is no reason why can’t be done at home provided the facilities and infrastructure in place. Mars orbiter attracted attention from the world for been on the launch pad in short notice and on a tight budget has already won admiration. It’s time that Government should chalk out the concrete policy for the funding of the research centers in the country and sling shot the inventions.

New Low Everyday - Competition Among Indian Law Makers

Image
It seems that law makers in the country are in competition to edge each one out in protest in a most headlines grabbing way. Snatching of papers of the speaker, pepper sprayed and now to stripping, every single day our law makers are touching new low. By getting elected for, they consider they have the right to hijack the house and do whatever seems appropriate to their understanding. They shamed the people of the country and the country before the world. The house should take stringent disciplinary action to set an example & deter other. What’s worst is the comment of the UP minister Azam Khan on the issue of stripping of 2 RJD MLAs. He once again epitomized the arrogance of the UP government as they are voted in the full majority, they are free to make such sick comments. Days are not gone when another MLA declared that chilling cold of UP cannot killed anyone in the relief camp. It’s time that people should be given power to ‘Right to Call Back’ these law makers who lack m...

Malshej Ghat Accident - Case of Human Error

Image
Once again human error is said to be responsible for the death of 30 passengers in Malshej Ghat where a state transport bus collided head on with the tempo and fell into a deep gorge.  Driving in hilly areas is totally different from driving in plain areas. Drivers who have experience and skills in driving through plain may find it difficult and challenging to drive in hilly areas. The gravity at the inclined plane and sharp turns made it very difficult to control the vehicle. Also driving after sunset and before sunrise challenges further as drivers are unable to gauge the sharpness in the turns properly and driving is done purely on the assumptions. If the vehicle is slightly overloaded then it makes it further difficult in controlling the vehicle which is under the influence of gravity at inclined plane.  Further, the safety of vehicle do not depends upon the driving skills of the driver of that vehicle alone but also on the skills of other drivers. This accident ...

Desperation to win

Image
The desperation in BJP to win general election 2014 is evident. It is not shy away to strike an alliance with any regional potential political outfit. The closeness of BJP with MNS in Maharashtra has already raffled feathers in longtime ally Shiv Sena. The latest episode of inclusion and exclusion of Sri Rama Sena chief in Karnataka is another example. Earlier party cleared the ticket to those who were involved in Muzaffarnagar riots. The infighting of the party is known to all and sundry. Every senior leader is fighting their own prestige battle. It will be interesting to see in the coming election how this desperation of the party will responded by the people in the presence of more potential challenger like AAP which has already upset it to win Delhi state polls.   Disgruntled seniors  In & Out of BJP in 5 hours
