Indyeah
 
There is the program titled as above in National Geographic channel, today the episode was related to mountaineering(Mission Everest), an personnel from Nehru Institute of Mountaineering,Uttarkashi was selecting students  fit for climbing Snow clad Mountains in Himalayas. The trainer was an Ex-ArmyServiceman(who else can work on this)  and was selecting apt candidates for climbing Everest.

the Rigorous test started with a 15-20 KM trek  in the forest with 18KG of load in the back,  Then with the same load the candidates were ask to do push-ups, Skipping  and Jogging.    First time many were seeing SNOW(there are many tamilians who havent seen water at all, i dont know when they are going to see snow) and wanted to play on it, instead they were asked to repeat the same set of excercises stated before on the SNOW.  They were asked to Tent in the snow(temperature mentioned was -10C)  and cook their own food.  After all this in the field once they returned to their camp they were asked to climb artificial vertical walls meant for training.    After 20 days of this stressfull test only 3 managed to pass through out of some 30 students. 

Those three will be accompanied with the Indian Army to climb the Mt. Everest.  It was really good to see such things exists in India.

Women are confusing...
 
Before marriage they expect a man, after marriage they suspect a man, after he dies they respect the man
 
 
I dont know how many agree to this..............

Fire accident-Kumbakonam
 
It is sad to hear that nearly 80 school children were burnt alive in a nasty fire accident in Kumbakonam,   Though the town is famous for its temples and culture it still lacked planning in terms of roads and handling emergency.  Even during this incident the fire fighters had a tough time in reaching the venue because of narrow approach to the school.
 
As such the fate of school children currently is at risk, recently a chennai girl was crushed to death in front of her parents when the school van ran over her.  Already schools are putting lots of pressure physically(take a look at their bags they carry) and mentally these kind of incidences add more fuel to the fire.  
 
Even i didnt want to go to school foreseeing such happenings but my parents wanted to risk both me and my teachers.  Anyway my condolences for those poor kids whose absence wont make any impact in this society as they will forget this incident in a week or so.

Lallu se Milo

Yesterday been to the NDTV live show for rendevous with our Rly. Minister Mr.Lallu Prasad Yadav. The venue was at the Rail Museum in Chanakyapuri. Lallu first went a round in the Toy Train in the museum giving a one-one direct interview with the TV guys and then returned to hear the views about the public gathered there. Obviously the topic was about the Railway budget.


Many praised Lallu for not increasing the Passenger Fares and also for introducing Kulhars and Matkas and making it a populist budget. Let me put accross some replies of Lallu for the questions from public.

P: Dont you feel waiving off travel fare to unemployed youth be utilized in a wrong way?
Lallu: We will make enough efforts so that that concession is not malutilized.

P: Introduction of Kulhars will be a failure in western railway section
Lallu: Drinking tea in Kulhars is good for health, my mom used to give me milk in Kulhar only. First have a taste of it and then speak about it. I recommend everyone get used to drink tea, water and even coco cola in Kulhar only.

P: I'm commuting from Delhi to some XXX place which is a Metre gauge section. I'm not able to reach my office in time daily due to the delay caused for some reason or other, can you recommend to convert this to a broad gauge section and leave more local trains on this sector.
Lallu: Sir what work you do? Where do you stay?
P: i'm a public school Teacher in XXX place, i have my quarters in Delhi.
Lallu: What i can only do is transfer you to XXX place so that you need not commute.

P: Why is all railway ministers are region centric, in this budget you had released more new trains only to Bihar than any other state.
Lallu: Bihar people are hard working people and they travel across all across india(from guwahati to mumbai, Haryana to Madhya pradesh etc.) also i have catered to all my south indian friends who were complaining that they were neglected. We have tried to cater to most of the states in this budget.

P: of the Three Railway ministers so far Nitish kumar, Ram Vilas Paswan, and Lallu Prasad Yadav, who do you think is the best?
Lallu: Except me both are the best.

.

I hope you can see how interesting our Lallu bhai is.

After a strenous research i have been able to add the comment link to the blog page. I had been in desperate need for this since i have no other platform to criticize my own blog. So if you accidentally/by mistake if you are reading my blogs you can also join my bandwagon to comment. Remember positive comments are appreciated, negative ones will be avenged with(unless it is from my own).

Leopard attacks in Mumbai

It might be strange if i say that i was the happiest person when i
heard Leopards had killed some 14-15 people in Mumbai. I'll also
support with my reasons why i'm happy.

1) This news confirmed that still Leapord exists in India(which is a
country which doesnt give any respect to Animal welfare,except for
a ministry). Leopard is in the most endangered species list in India
since they have been ruthlessly hunted for their skin.

2) Leopards attacked people in MUMBAI(so far only Tigers ie the
Shiv Shena which is a Hindu Activist group Attacked the people in
this place) . How come Leopard have a residence in Mumbai is
Dawood(underworld don) sleeping???. I know Mumbai only as a Concrete Jungle now very happy that Mumbai has some space left for these less wilder animals(of course the most wild is human).

3) There is nothing wrong with the Leapord in killing people(which is also a part of Population control ) who had encroached within its land. People deserve such capital punishment who for their selfish reasons occupy its terrain. One day it might happen that even domestic animals might seek revenge for the abuses made on them in India.

4) Blueline buses in Delhi kill nearly 200-300 people every year in
India, so tell me which is more notorious the Leopard or the bus
driver?? Just because some Elite group is getting affected these poor creatures are bought into picture.

The attitude of Indians should change with respect to animals. It is currently "I'll only live" but should be "You live and let me also live".

Concentrating on Indian Budget

Atlast the D-Day has come to deciding the Indian Budget for the politicians on who will eat what amount. I'll suggest declaring the budget outside the parliament because the opposition cannot stage a walk out against it(since already they are outside). I hope two sensible economists PC and MS would make a clean effort.

Also the Railway budget is also going to be presented by none other than Sir. Lallu. I need to follow up with the same because NDTV had asked me to join their live relay with Lallu regarding the budget. This is really going to be tough first Sir.Lallu has to understand what he is going to present,next he should be able to convey what he has understood and finally the tougher part we have to understand him. I hope he doesnt say as a part of cost cutting measure all Rail Engines will be replaced by Bihar Buffaloes since they are environment friendly.
