Sanitation: It’s a Mess here

Sanitation is a very basic human need and is one of the primary drivers of public health, but unfortunately, in India, this facility is beyond the reach of millions of people. If we believe a report published in a leading newspaper, almost 60% of Indians defecate in the open. The condition is poorer in rural areas. In the data released by the NSSO (National Sample Survey Office), only 32% of the rural households have access to sanitation, and almost 1000 children below the age of 5 die every day in India due to diarrhea, hepatitis-causing pathogens, and other sanitation-related diseases.

Our educational system is so unplanned that it has completely failed in providing good education. This unplanned educational system is affecting the whole process of developm

Is Abhinav Bindra....A Real Ideal???

No Doubt Abhinav Bindra made India feel proud by achieving what no Indian did achieved previously but is he a real ideal????.....Abhinav Bindra was the person who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth...he got all the facilities which he wished....no doubts here most of the facilities were provided by his affluent father and not by the government....right from a rifle worth four lacs to a personal shooting range...do a common Indian has an access to all such modern facilities???Undoubtedly its a big NO....The facilities provided by the State Government and the Central Government are not upto the mark which is required to bag gold,silver,bronze medals at prestigious sports events...well in this sense much tribute can be paid to our boxers who were from a humble background and did achieved a honourable position just by their sheer hardwork...even in the crunch of facilities they made us feel proud....they touched the hearts of the common Indian who is always burdened under the load o
