Within under 24 hours of the announcement of the New Education Policy by the HRD minister, Mr. Ramesh Pokhriyal and the Information and Broadcasting minister, Mr. Prakash Javadekar, the policy has caught the attention of almost everyone across the nation. The new policy which will replace the previous policy which was announced in 1986 and was modified in 1992, by its first look, seems very promising majorly because of the targets it has set to achieve in their stipulated time frame which, if happens, would revolutionize the education sector of the country which has been long criticized for having too many loopholes and hence not been serving its intended purpose all this time. Before we get into the details of what this new policy has in store for the students and their family members, in turn the whole of the country, I think it's important I point it out that this bill was given clearance from the cabinet, chaired by the PM Mr. Narendra Modi, without it being brought into the Pa...

If I had gone for an opening like "In a country where we have countless Goddesses who we worship, violence on women is nothing new", you might have considered it a banality, but isn't it more disgraceful that such statements which should be drawing immediate attentions are rather a reality of our world which don't startle us anymore. We do empathize with the victims for a brief moment when we hear about such incidents but soon forget about it.

If you were guessing that i was going to provide a solution here, I'm sorry to disappoint. For the record, the domestic violence complaints rose to a 10 year high in the period of March to May 2020. That means when the whole nation was under loc...

Dominating the first half of 2020, Coronavirus is definitely here to stay for a long time. It was nearly 4 months back when my CEO had asked all of us, his employees, to work from home until things get better for resuming work from office again. And in the last team call a couple of days back, he informed us that we might have to continue working from home like this for longer than any of us had expected. Getting straight to the point, this virus has certainly gotten onto the nerves of almost everyone now. With India now reporting around 28000 daily cases with such consistency, all the claims by the Government of having things under control only sound vague. The only ray of hope around is the news of some of the vaccines in development having shown successful results in the trials. A team of IIT Delhi have come up with Corosure, promoted to be the cheapest alternative in the market. Russia is planning to launch a vaccine by mid August. Earlier, ICMR had asked Bharat Biotech to in...
