Cycling and cycling the Corporate and Infrastructure


Cycling ... Hey what a carrier vehicle, environment friendly, economical and for masses। Even you too like it or liked it some day or the other.

If provided and facilitated on right sprit in means of roads, infrastructure then could have been the different story so far Infosys HQ, Bangalore, all people use bi-cycles for going from one unit to another. IIT's and engineering colleges’ lot of students use bi-cycles to commute. We can find some more few examples, but the story stops here, Why ???

Lack of infrastructure, no lanes for bi-cycles, two-wheelers and gyarah number ki gadi wale kafi hum jaise log No infrastructure is planned for any of these when our road departments plan, build and develop any of such city infrastructures Hence one is directly forced to cycle on same and here awaits the accidents, misshapenness and incidents in form of accidents. Even using bi-cycle and traveling by people is seen as below standards from social point of view.

If you are self driven you won’t care for such small sarcastic issues but we should start demanding good separate lanes at least in Metros and Towns for cycles, two-wheelers and pedal yatris And it’s not for you or me, it’s required for masses from schooling going kids to Retired Uncles, our Postmen and more for ensuring the security of our human lives and race.


PJ: "RACE" is about to begin, releasing tomorrow worldwide !!!

MTV Roadies: The Game is still ON

Last two Vote outs: March, 15 was Prabjot and March 8, Ankita and before that Shenashish. The game which was unpredictable in beginning is showing intense reactions in voting out because of the individuals past personal behaviors and play around this show in last few weeks.

When Ankita was out on March 8, waves already went moving against Prabjot. Immunity loss and so none other way she could have survived.So can we guess and bid for the One emerging as winner: The left contestants are: Nihal, Ayaz, Anmol, Ashutosh, Shambavhi, and Sonel.

Sure the pick in first instance is Shambvi :) .She made good moves on the board and played with everyone in ever way possible to make her way. She is passionate to move further and its great at age of 18 to play so diplomatically.
But I don’t think she would continue till end as her intelligent moves till now are explicit and overblown to all and same lies for Anmol. Sonel is kind of attitude and she would be thrown at any moment she might not know, she is in as everyone thinks she is not a problem for them .

Based on the story so far, I would put my bet on Ashutosh the Sahanpuri Indian Bindas dude as current gainer and in maximum safe position!


Among Guys, Nihal and Ayaz are making moves as always nothing so great but they already have many times votes against them in vote out and Ashutosh only one time a vote against him. Ashutosh answers are instinct and positive and last show he gave politically very correct move to provide immunity to Anmol, Shambvi and Ayaz that Ayaz was almost closer in hitting wickets and played better. He still did not have any negative impulse on any of the other 5 contestants yet and still one soft corner of Sonel is apparent on him.

Hinduism and Religion: Are you prepared for tomorrow ?

Already waves in West about Hinduism and Religion. For Next Generation Indians Questions are popping up especially for Hindu Indian students and children like:
Why do Hindus worship the cow? Are Hindu Gods always married to many women? Why do Hindus worship idols?

But don't you think we smaller part of Urban India are on the same lines down 20-25 years down the line in India when after few coming generations people would ask the same or else the people would be so liberal in following religion that these questions would elapse automatically ! Thanks to our population in villages and rural areas who won’t ask such questions for more time to come.

Anyway even we keep aside Hinduism and Religion, what we are seeing today is, we are diverging and west is converging, but where. We are going and following the trends and paths that West followed in last 20 years and West is realizing and moving towards East and specially India that we were few centuries before. What a blunder situation to realize where we are heading towards! See the power of our ancient Yoga, Indian food, Ayurveda, Literature and History that was once the best in it own way in our system and standards and if you see trend in last decade west is following this.

From AkashGanga to Earth : "Ram Teri Ganga Mali Ho Gayi"

Famous line down the lines prevalent from last few decades "Ram Teri Ganga Mali Ho Gayi”, yet any prevention measures taken? A lot on paper works, committees, meetings and discussions but how many executed and implemented in right direction and and what's the outcome? I too don't know the answer and if the answer would have come there question might not have aroused in my thoughts...

When "Alexender the Great" conquered the Great India , he asked his mother what should be bring back and her mother asked for River Ganga's holy water as that was the only thing in her mind to have something from India. See what impact the Ganga created centuries back when there were no telecommunications, media, videos and technology in wire or wireless like we have today... but of course technology might have been much advanced and pure in Ram Yuga that time would let us know in future when we are enough capable to know the answers.

Ganga has her own story coming from AkashGanga to Earth and making people over here to have her divine power and love, which still exists in providing us in form of religion, medicine, sports, adventure and reason to joy. Its our responsibility to take care of our natural resources and treasures which are priceless, as we all know for everthing else there are mastercards !

Other rivers too we all know about the conditions going through, the predictions are going through that we may loose glaciers and pure water resources in coming 50 years as per modern science analyze. That seems true for the moment but lets presume that the exact answers to these predictions we don’t know in present, so leave some questions for future and start working in present so that we might change the future as future is always unpredictable.

"India Calling": US vs. India Military Stands on Images Revealed by Google Earth Maps

I don't know how many of us seriously track the news over a period of time. Google Earth we all know about, provides satellite images of all over the world including even details about our Capital New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad as part of its software solution as per http://earth.google.com. These images are easily available to anybody with access to the Net, provide users with images of places.

Latest Google posted Images of Fort Sam Huston base that included 360-degree views of the covered area to include access control points, barriers, headquarters, facilities and community areas.

Pentagon has banned Google Maps from bases and has put restrictions on the same. Also The US Defense Department has banned Google map-making teams from making detailed street-level video maps of American military bases after images f this were available on one internet site. Later Google spokesman said that a crew had mistakenly asked the access for this base, and base officials agreed for the same and hence the event happened. The security standards are much in place there at US when it comes to people, places or Nation's security.

Now consider the case just 2-3 years back somewhere in Sep, 2005 at India, hope all of you can at least recall the events and happenings that took place when Google Earth was new to Legally in India we are not allowed to take photos or visit military installation bases. However same Google’s earth had put India Air Force (, HAL factory, Prime Minister’s house, Parliament house and other very important military and sensitive locations in country.
Google’s released images allowed anyone to know details and views of all these important locations for lot of time and these were blocked only after serious interventions of top officials from government.

Even as late as in Jan-Feb, 2007 discussions were held because of security concerns expressed by none other than our honorable Ex.President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and various political parties on deciding policies for blocking easy access to high-resolution images to such sensitive places can be blocked. The Google team had a talk with various legal communities, experts on ground of same so that further steps could be taken. Don't you think and analyze that at multiple time and situations we were ill-equipped to tackle and resolve such situations in a very less time, can you see the difference in matter of space and time we take to reaching conclusions in matter like this. This happens in every sphere in India if you see through in any of domains whether its economy, banking, politics, stocks, defense or security, etc. We are far behind the West, its not the capability but its the vision and imagination we need to put in our government perspective to think beyond and far.

Experts and Analyst do compare hurricane and Bombay floods, markets and economy, trades and politics when it comes to US vs. India, but we need to look beyond and further, we need not great people in India but good people who can work passionately and create momentum for India's growth when it comes to National Security, Country's Economy, Science and Technology, and in true sense a Knowledge and Wisdom society.

We had enough good leaders like Netaji, Bhaghat Singh, Lokmanya Tilak and many other great leaders so it’s the time to have good focused people who can deliver great rather than being "great" for this Country. I think the message is large is clear but still can we deliver and take our Mother India in this momentum. Again its left to people to take their call and hence its "India Calling" people within us to take leadership and challenges , but lets see how many of us are seriously prepared to take and join this "RACE".

WAQT

यह वक़्त, यह वक्त , यह वक्त ही तोह है
ये जो जीन्दगी के रास्ते है, वोह वक्त के ही वास्ते है !
वक्त कभी कर देता है चूर तोह कभी कभी कर देता है मजबूर
वक्त कभी चुरा लेता है चेहरे से नूर तोह कभी कर देता है खुशियों से भरपूर
वक्त रुकता नही कीसी के लीये
ना मोहब्बत के लीये न दोस्ती के लीये
इसको मील जाते है अपने ही रासते आहिस्ते आहिस्ते !
