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. Poor sanitation not only negatively influences school attendance, especially for girls, but a report published in TIME magazine indicated that it is also the main culprit in the stunting of children in India. According to the World Bank, the sanitation deficit also translates into losses in GDP. The sanitation deficit in India is estimated to cost the country Rs 24,000 crores per year.Another report p

We all know that India is a Youth Nation and hence in the development of this nation, the youth community here has to play a very pivotal role. Elections, anywhere does play a very important role in giving a country, state, city, institution, organizations… by providing a leader to them. A leader which is appointed by the general consensus is very much responsible for the betterment and development of the body for which he/she is chosen for. A bad leader will make things worse and a good leader will try to reach the pinnacle of betterment which in turn will make things better. Hence it is very necessary that we elect those persons as leaders who have the quality, the vision and motive to improve things. When it comes to General Elections, this matter becomes more important. Through General Elections, we chose those persons, in the hands of whom lies the responsibility of steering the country. Youth in India needs to play very active and fruitful role in the forthcoming elections. Indi

Brain Drain has been one of the biggest problems which India is facing right from it’s inception. India has been crying foul, repeatedly making promises to students that they will provide a better environment, good pay-packages, less bureaucracy but all in vain. Such promises can be seen only in the long political speeches of our politicians but in reality the conditions are worse. Thousands of students who complete their studies from major reputed universities and colleges such as IIM’s ,IIT’s and others move abroad for a better life…a life which offers them more financial gains, less bureaucracy, more freedom and etc, etc. Not only students who have completed their professional education from India are moving abroad but now even the students who wish to make a better life are pursuing their studies in foreign universities, the reason being better chances of employment, more variety of courses and every other thing which our ill-planned educational system fail to provide. Such are th

India is a country of variations...this is seen in all aspects...whether be it religion, weather, castes, rituals and various others...summing up in general it’s everywhere. The same trend is seen in the political arena too..one one side there are million of poor people,”the masses” who are living their lives in squalor...people who can’t afford two square meals a day..People who are ready to kill others for few bucks...there are people who fail to acquire the basic necessities of life...food, clothing, housing and others...on the other hand there are some people, few people who constitute “the classes”...people who enjoy every facilities money can provide...from expensive condos, cars, imported goods, magnificent parties and every other thing..You name it and they have...our politicians also come in this class...gone are those days when our political leaders lived a simple life, banning every other items of luxury. They advocated the use of “swadeshi” goods and represented the true I

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
