Text of the page (random words):
f america is considered to the father of his nation for he was the leader of the revolutionary struggle for american independence from the british colonial rule like gandhiji washington was also a lover of truth when he was only a boy he admitted chopping down his father s cherry tree saying father i cannot tell a lie washington s achievement in uniting the diverse elements which formed the u s earned him this unanimous encomium from his countrymen first in war first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen addiction to principles was washington s forte to be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace cultivate peace and harmony with all nations when he took over as president of the u s he said whatever we do will serve to establish a precedent and hence these precedents should be fixed on true principles once when george washington was out riding with some friends one of the horses kicked off some stones in a farmer s rock fence washington told his colleagues to better replace them oh let the farmer do that they laughed washington dismounted and carefully replaced the stones on the fence you are too big to be doing that a friend remarked on the contrary i am the right size replied washington this is an extract from the book the great ones posted by jeevan at 8 25 am 23 comments monday may 14 2007 lincoln my dream a superb effort by lincoln auto a refreshing experience posted by gp at 12 30 pm 4 comments labels the world friday april 13 2007 bagh day the debris laden garden was the venue of a peaceful public meeting held to protest the martial law imposed by the lt governor of punjab michael o dwyer just after the meeting had begun dyer marched in at the head of 50 soldiers he stationed his men on either side of the entry and without a word of warning opened fire with machine guns on the people for ten full minutes while the trapped indians screamed for mercy the soldiers fired 1 650 rounds the result was a stampede many jumped into a well in the garden while others tried to scale the walls to get out convinced that he had done a jolly good thing dyer withdrew leaving the wounded and the dying to fend for themselves the jallianwala bagh lies in the heart of the walled city of amritsar and at the heart of our struggle for independence for it was bagh in the holiest city of the sikhs on a day sacred to them as the birth anniversary of the khalsa april 13 1919 that a massacre involving the killing of hundreds of unarmed defenseless indians was ordered by brigadier general r e h dyer this was a turning point in the history of anglo indian relations more decisive than even the first war of independence a committee was formed with pt madan mohan malaviya as president to raise a memorial to perpetuate the memory of the martyrs the bagh was acquired from the jallewala sardars on august 1 1920 but the actual construction of the memorial had to wait until after independence dr rajendra prasad india s first president on april 13 1961 inaugurated the monument and befittingly named the flame of liberty the central 30 foot high pylon a four sided tapering structure of red stone standing in the midst of a shallow tank is built with 300 slabs with the ashoka chakra the national emblem cast on them on all four sides of the pylon the words in memory of martyrs 13 april 1919 is inscribed in hindi punjabi urdu and english bullet holes are carefully preserved under thick glass frames the well now enclosed holds no water only coins tossed by those who come to pay homage at the adjoining martyrs gallery the jallianwala trust files have recorded details of condemnation that followed the massacre dyer was unrepentant when the british parliament passed strictures against him the lt governor of punjab michael o dwyer was shot dead 21 years later in london by udham singh who was executed within months udham singh s portrait rests in the gallery with the famous lines from his trial inscribed below what greater honour can be bestowed on me than death for the sake of my motherland posted by jeevan at 1 26 pm 8 comments thursday april 12 2007 2050 closure 2050 for the past year and a half has been an amazing journey loved all earlier posts but sadly it did not hit the mark did not reflect the point we re trying to make for me 2050 means more than typical posts 2050 is a landmark and a goal to achieve and thus we will be going on a short break i will remove everyone from the member list for the rebirth anyone interested in the genuine idea of blogging till the year 2050 and think that they can do it often one a week please do drop me a mail so that i can add you thank you for all you support all this time memories will be cherished writings will remain forever posted by gp at 3 47 pm 1 comment labels closure america india and their role in global security today the united states stands as a global colossus economically militarily and culturally yet even at this moment of unparalleled influence the unipolar pax americana that emerged from the end of the cold war is slowly being replaced by a multi polar global order this process may be slow but it is inevitable with the rise of asian powers like china and india reclaiming their historic place in the world economy and as europe integrates into a single economic bloc the us will be forced to fundamentally re think the very foundation of its foreign alliances that have served it so well during the cold war similarly the world will need to re imagine its global institutions such as the united nations and the north atlantic treaty organization which were designed for a world order that no longer exists more immediate than these longer term shifts in world power are the threat of global terrorism the spread of weapons of mass destruction and the looming environmental degradation that already pose a clear and present danger to our way of life it is because of these challenges both near term and long term that this column argues america must reach out for new allies and that its focus must expand from europe to asia today asia is home to half the world s population and is witnessing dramatic economic growth it also contains the world s most explosive conflicts the arc of instability now stretches from the middle east to north korea an america that is no longer the only truly global power should reach out to rising nations of asia to secure not only its own interests but also to maintain global peace and security within asia it is specifically to india that america should turn its focus bound by common values of democracy and secularism and challenged by the same forces of terrorism and fundamentalism america and india are moving towards a remarkable congruence of interests and importantly pose no strategic threat to each other furthermore both countries must recognise and accommodate the rise of china arguably the biggest global political dislocation since the rise of the us itself it is hoped that china s rise will be peaceful and benevolent but we cannot pretend to ignore it could also pose profound challenges to both countries such challenges may occur not only in terms of economic interests but also in terms of core values such as democracy and the rule of law as the world s largest democracies a us india security partnership will be vital to global security and stability as the world s balance of power moves from europe to asia we do not limit ourselves to advocating for a stronger us india relationship in isolation our intention is to examine and explore all world events from the perspective of this nascent relationship in the belief that a us india partnership will serve as the foundation of a new global security paradigm this is not an argument for an expansion of nato into asia particularly given asia s colonial history nor do we argue that a european nato should be replaced by an asian kind europe is still important but the days are gone when the free world was challenged by one single enemy as during the cold war with europe serving on its front lines any new security understanding needs to be global in scope and flexible enough to be able to respond to a myriad challenges hence making the one for all formal alliance embodied in nato impractical in the future countries may respond differently to different threats and the nature of cooperation should not be limited to a narrow definition of security an example of the kind of global security cooperation that we will see more of in the future occurred after the asian tsunami when the us indian japanese and australian navies jointly coordinated a rapid relief effort until the united nations was able to take over its responsibilities we believe global challenges require global solutions and that ultimately countries sharing the same values and challenged by the same threats will come together to ensure their common security accordingly democracies across the world should be encouraged to contribute to such a globalised security understanding however we believe it is the us india partnership that must be at the core of any future global security structure india alone among the democracies of eurasia is continental in size and has the potential to project a military force that can truly work in partnership with the us this piece is written unashamedly from an american point of view yet this column is not designed to be an intellectual exercise in strategic relations among washington think tanks rather it serves as a strong advocate for a us india strategic partnership in the firm conviction that such a partnership is critical for us long term interests and the foundation for a future global security paradigm the inherent advantage to american and indian interests makes such a partnership inevitable source rediff com posted by unknown at 8 22 am no comments labels india us tuesday april 10 2007 who is middle class very often we hear about term middle class lower class upper class while talking about india with economy as indicator how can we define in measurable scale with that quest i gather information to compiled this blog with a per capita gross domestic product gdp under us 1000 india is often regarded as a poor nation over 300 million indians live with incomes comparable to the least in the world s other acknowledged poverty zone sub saharan africa moreover the deep poverty of the country is borne unequally by lower income groups within this population 46 of the income is accounted for by the top one fifth of the people while the lowest one fifth accounts for only 8 of incomes even this breakdown presents only an incomplete picture in fact the top 10 alone earns 33 of all income this large scale deprivation has a curious companion a grossly incorrect understanding of what the term middle class means the median family income in india is approximately rs 4500 a month by its conventional definition the middle class includes families whose incomes lie between 75 and 125 of the median families with monthly incomes over rs 6000 are thus above the middle class line and families earning more than rs 8000 or 9000 a month are certainly among the top fifth of the nation still among the urban salaried class that constitutes most of the audience for media outlets many believe themselves to be members of the middle class the view that they obtain middle class incomes is widespread among many such families what s more with proficiency in english largely confined to those who can afford private education nearly everyone who can fluently say middle class families like mine is almost certainly part of the india s economic elite posted by unknown at 6 51 am no
