Mobile call drop: an issue unsolved?????

Mobile phone is one of the greatest invention mankind had seen in this century,apart from computer. Communication and information exchange had picked up to remarkable pace. A static telephone which used to be only voice based system ruled till early 80s after which the mobile phone boom had spinned some of the mightiest business entities that generated revenues higher than some small countries GDP.  

The mobile phone now is a world in itself offering different numerous applications like camera, internet, games, entertainment etc. Many companies like facebook, Twitter and Whatapp had spinned billions of dollars in a span of 3 to 5years creating mobile applications. The phone which was actually meant for voice communication is no more for voice communication it is now used for other priorities than talking. As the main purpose is dissolved the utility is also becoming more unfriendly to talk.

This is on one side of the coin, the other side you will get frustration to talk on mobile phone as majority of your calls will either drop or the call will be inaudible. This is the case with almost all mobile operators like Airtel, Vodafone, Many deliberations was made between Government and telecom operators in India which were in vain as no one is ready to accept the basic reality and take adequate steps to control call drops. 

The availability of uncountable mobile applications to download and use, the heavy exchange of text messaging, the zooming internet consumption might be some reasons as quoted by many analysts. http://www.forbes.com/sites/saritharai/2015/09/30/the-massive-call-drop-problem-in-india-worlds-second-largest-mobile-market/#3773c5b55a92

The mobility to connect while on go is now become more complex with the growing utility of mobile phones. Indian Government should speed up extending spectrum and tower coverage (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tech/tech-news/Call-drops-Trai-asks-telcos-to-add-more-mobile-towers/articleshow/49745631.cms to enhance the telecom signal vicinity.

Why Hindu traditions and customs targeted ?????????

Hinduism is the identity of India from vedic period of human existence. The very identity was even confirmed and named as Hindustan by the people who invaded us to conquer by all means. Perhaps this is the only faith which thought us to worship the things with which we survive i.e the five elements (the Air, Fire, Water, Land and Sky). 

Every living thing in the world is regarded as divine since at some stage or the other they tend to influence their significance in human life. A visit to any temple near to a hillock or near to a river replenishes the troubled mind and recharges it. The divine characters attributes that are essential to become a supreme human being who can empower this nature with divinity are indoctrinated to human deities like Rama, Krishna, etc. Hindus worship human as a supreme knowledgeable creature on earth, admire the human qualities that favor universal togetherness, chant human attributes in terms of ved matras to remember and implement in their lives. 

Every mythology is a case that explains what type of life you lead, how to live in a society, how different stages of life influence the human attitude and how to overcome the challenges. Each avatar of Hindu vedic period has an ultimate purpose to teach, has a unique path to propose, has an extraordinary conclusion to enlighten.

As decades passed, centuries counted Hinduism branched into castes and sects according to their profession, according to their wealth, according to their status earned till that time. This was the time when the insecurity chased the native Indian community who otherwise lived in harmony with nature. Our past reminds us about the disparity created among the niche professional community like the kings court officials, the pundits and priests,the tradesmen etc and inferior professional community who live in remote areas, the housekeeping community, the barbers etc.

Even after independence efforts were made to bring the dalits, the girijans into the modern society with little success to cherish. The internal clash among higher castes and lower castes was used to the create social divide and to separate the Hindu fraternity in India. The same socio-economic divide is the trump card for all anti-social elements and politicians that is making the normal peace loving Hindu fraternity more bothered to live.

There are movies that question Hindu traditions; there are organizations continuously targeting Hindu customs followed at their temples and prayer halls, Attacks on Hindus and Hindu temples are hardly reported on paid and up-paid media. WHY???????

However there is hardly anyone to question the customs and traditions of other faiths that were forced on this sub-continent for the last 400years. Indian family planning rules are only applicable to Hindus others are at their will to go for multiple marriages and kids. 

How many know about vandalizing Madurai temple, very few??

Very soon in the next 20 to 30years Hindus will be on Minority side heading towards a wipeoff by more aggressive faiths around.


The only remedy to this is to imbibe self-pride in all Hindus. Implement all constitutional rules and regulations equally among all faiths.

Modern Cricket becoming batsman dominated

After following One day cricket series with Australia i got a feel that the game is no more supportive for bowlers. Making 300 runs is a normal affair with hardly any great bowling performances recorded. A game that was known to offer wholesome entertainment through batting, bowling and fielding slowly become a hitting game like base ball. The advent of T20 is one more reason to look for quick runs in terms of sixes and fours, you cannot waste time by running singles and twos.  

Every bowler from both teams struggled on the dead pitches that offered nothing to them, Indian bowling that already looked weak was plundered by Aussies big guns. If luck favored India could have made the series tight. Many countries are inclined towards creating batting pitches. It is very hard to find pitches that offer level playing field to both batsmen and bowler. If hard hitting becomes criteria then bowlers will loose their value.

Can we expect some  new rules and regulations by respective cricket associations to up keep the value of one days and test matches...

Hyderabad Central University: Dirty politics at its peak

If you are following the recent intolerance incidents that are politically blown and well marketed by media you can observe one thing in common that all stake holders over actively involved are targeting center i.e BJP Government. Politicians are least bothered about truth or reality they just want the ministers and other bureaucrats to resign.

The recent Hyderabad Central University student suicide issue was of similar kind with all anti government political gathered to voice for student who's conduct was under scan by the university committee. Neither his caste was properly confirmed nor his conduct was neat since he is named in some students level disputes. Let me understand from any one of you on the below points.

Why Hyderabad Central University students permitted politicians into their agitation? Why could not afford to wait for university committee reports on the students?

Why only this case is highly blown? what about the other incidents occurring at various universities why were they not highlighted?

Why Government should pay ex-gratia on what terms their parents will be paid? are they going to pay ex-gratia to all suicide cases occurring at different universities and colleges?

Why jobs are offered to the victim's mother and brother?

Until education campuses are isolated from political interference you cannot think of enhancing education sector in India.

ODD EVEN formula in Delhi

Delhi with 75lac odd vehicular population is fast venturing into the list of most hostile cities in the world. Clubbed with the seasonal extreme temperatures Delhi atmosphere is becoming more venerable to live in. Just to quote a small example if you try to walk through the different streets in patelnagar or any other location you can clearly identify that there is little space left after parking cars both sides. The buses, lorries and other public transport vehicles entering NCR are extra.

Adding to this vehicular traffic the smog mixed with the smoke from leaves burnt in and around Delhi make the air more unbreathable. Even though this problem is looming large from some years the severity of the problem is slowly getting realized and accepted.

The AAP sarkar identifying this situation came up proposing ODD-EVEN formula for vehicles plyingo on the Delhi roads. Idea is remove 50% of the vehicles from the roads thus containing carbon emmissions around delhi. The idea was novel but implementation is a challenge as the people of the Delhi first need to embrace this system and include themselves to make a success of the policy.

1st Jan 2016 was the big day for Delhi officials to start with ODD EVEN policy. As the days go forward we will know whether the people of Delhi are really receptive to the Government's call to curb the pollution or they still prefer to live in this toxic atmosphere.

Apart from this ODD EVEN formula Delhi Government should also make a point to announce the daily pollution levels in the city and create awareness to contain the pollution. Though it is a long term challenge it is the citizen of Delhi to understand and empower themselves to combat pollution horror.
