Vision for the country
I love my country. It is not a special thing. Everyone loves their country (everyone should love their country). No matter how popular or how big you are, you needs a mother land. I am an Indian and I am proud of it. We have a great culture. The diversity in culture [...]

After the global financial crisis now it is the turn of Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs is the major financial services company in the world. But the common people in US do not like the company (I came to know about this from Michael Moore’s documentary ‘Capitalism: A love story’). During the days of recession the [...]

After attacks from outside now it is from inside. The Maoist threat is gaining momentum. The ‘blood battle’ need proper attention.

Despite all the diversities
My country is still naked
There are dreams,
But not many ways to fulfill them
There are visionaries,
But they are shot before the rain.

I always admired P. Sainath. Not because he is famous. I liked his way of reporting. Recently he has been in Trivandrum, capital of Kerala (the southern most state in India), for the release of his book in Malayalam. P.S Jayan has done an interview with him in Mathrubhumi daily. I cut it and kept it in my dairy. Later I decided to write an article about it.

When slow down hits the market every sector will be affected badly. Kerala, god’s own country, witnessed a real boom in the real estate sector recently. Which was the first of it’s kind in the tail ender state of the country. Land broking had become a lucrative business for hundreds across the state. The hike in land and property prices made life simple for land owners and there were some who skipped their dreams of owing a home.
