Indian Family budget and education
Just consider the most promising and progressive world economies surely you will end with India, emerging as the world leader in this arena. With the speedy progress on economic fronts country is not legging for behind on the fronts of price hike of day to day commodities and life supporting products.
Have a look on following description: A computer lab with high speed internet connectivity & equipped with most modern computer systems, Air conditioned meeting hall, Long, spacious, green tree loaded and shadowed premises, state-of-art indoor game hall, finely architected and well decorate receptionist desk, Olympic sized shaded swimming pool and well dressed staff. Surely you had started thinking about the corporate office and work place of a multinational company. Will you please allow me correcting you, all the above description has nothing to do with a business setup or commercial enterprise. This is all about the modern and high classed boarding school in India. In fact education of children is the most worrying factor for most of Indian parents.
In the Indian economy, middle class, to whom even the American President blamed for the recent price hike in world markets, is working as the back bone of the system. These regular price hikes often disturb the domestic budget of this class but the most destroying thing for the budget of middle class Indian families is the unbelievable increase in expenses related with the education of children. Look at expenses under this head they are showing a huge growth of over 100% during last five years.
In the year 2002 most of recognizing schools in most of metro cities of the country were charging a monthly fee between Rs. 100 and Rs. 300 only but today this monthly fess is raised to minimum of around Rs. 300. Now think of other important expenses head of education of Indian children and this is private tuition, for which parents have to pay almost equal amount of school fee. On the one hand government expenses on primary education are increasing and on the other hand numbers of government schools are showing a constant decline with simultaneously number growth of private school is keeping on increasing and as the natural result of all these is visible in the form of high priced schooling.
Before I conclude this, I would like to ask a very simple question to huge Indian middle class families. I was a secondary school teacher for more than 25 years and still wondering on wisdom of teaching computers to kids who are not still perfect in their mother tongue? Before blaming government just think of our attitude of measuring standard of education only basis of amount paid by us for importing this to our children. Don’t you think until and unless we are not going to change our this attitude we will remain not only deprived of benefits of national economic boost but also will have to face the problem of disturbed domestic budgets due to these increased educational expenses.
As the blog title suggests and like the variation in the nature and attitude of citizen of world A variety of topics, related to life will be covered.

India: 60 Years: 60 Words: [9] Corporate Agriculture
India: 60 Years: 60 Words: [9] Corporate Agriculture
[India has competed 60 years of independence and to mark this, I am presenting this series of Articles, about the words, that are meaning a lot for the progress of the country. If you feel I missed some thing [For listing of words see the first article “India: 60 Years: 60 Words”] do inform me at premputar@gmail.com I will try to include that at the end of series]
Over the years India is the country of formers and Indian economy is the world’s best illustration for the agricultural economy. Today even after the 60 years of independence, achieving high rated technical excellence, high industrial growth and entering into world market of launching the satellite, majority of Indian population is the village population and fallows the agricultural economy.
Concepts like the “Green Revolution”, “Cash Crops”, “Second Crop” and “Simultaneous Works like the Poultry” etc. has not only boosted the agricultural production to go beyond the limits of self sufficiency but also worked for the addition to the monetary wealth of the formers. Rich flora and fauna diversified climatic conditions of the country when bundled with the new improvised way of forming and technical excellence resulted in producing a magical effect of taking the country into list of world exporters for many agricultural yielding like the Onion, flowers, sugar, cotton, herbal products, tea and spices etc.
Corporate agriculture is the most recent addition to the vocabulary and dictionary of the Indian formers, though this new concept is being opposed by the majority of formers because the stiff competition and war of survival, which might be going to become the most threatening effect of this concept for the individual formers. Surely the large investment capacities and reach to modernization with better and effective storage facilities will put the corporate sector ahead of the common individual formers. Indian formers welcomed the co-operative moment because in this there was a space for keeping the individual identity intact but the most fearful perception about the corporate agriculture is the loosing this identity.
Why the corporate sector is aiming at this village economy? Is the question, without addressing to which it is going to be tough and irrelevant to deal with and understand the new concept in its totality. World’s present super power America is on the roads of weakening and new economic centre is bound to emerge only two economies of the world China and India are speeding in this direction, in the industry and commerce competition is growing to become stiff day by day and forcing corporate sector to search new horizons for existences, diversified climatic conditions and liberal government policies towards the agricultural based activities is making the field ideal for entrance of the capitalist groups into scene in the India. Above all the agricultural sector of India is primarily constituted from the huge number of small and non associate farmers and this is the most attracting thing for the corporate sector.
Corporate agricultural will bring the old days of farmer slavery or Jamidar systems and all the land reforms of 60 years will turn meaningless is the thought wave of the group opposing the entrance of the corporate sector in the agricultural arena. The probable difference might be caused by the present village education levels of the country and might not the Indian farmers fall pray to any trap of the capitalist groups, besides that experience of working with cooperative societies is also going to help the farmers for getting a better deal and more beneficial contract from the corporate sector. All what I see will happen that with increased inflow of investment more technological excellence will involved, more advanced techniques will be part of day to day farming, better storage facilities will going to increase the earnings and might the agricultural exports go on to match other sectors on the front of earning foreign currencies for the country. Though it will be going to add responsibilities of the government as safeguarding the welfare and rights of non united and isolated farmers will go on to higher priority list and government will be pressurized to come with laws favoring the farmers in case of dispute so the corporate sector should not get upper hand only on the bases of huge invest mental capacities.

Sex and Sensex
Sex and Sensex
Indians or rather the citizens of third world countries are under the storms of these two words Sex and Sensex resulted and entered into their life from the globalization. The market movers and kings of the western world are of the opinion that what is need of sending the war ships and military troupes to these countries? Just clear the roads for our entrances and we will conquer them. Yes they can. With the huge financial sources they are able to dictate terms of economic world and with condoms they are there to destroy and demolish the cultural values and social life. As we all know no community can live without own language so is the relation of Nation with culture and life style. We are Indians just because of having a distinct life style and a specific culture which is making us different from the lot. The day, life style of Mumbai and New York will start running on the same lines there will be No American or No Indian, It will be just globalization? Do we wish to see an increased pre marriage pregnancy rate? Are we ready and wishing to see our social life, with high growth rate of alone men, alone women or single parent? Do we find sufficient reasons to kill our rich social traditions for the sensex boost? Will, that, so called money flow into life will make us richer in true sense? These and this kind of many questions are needed to be addressed before we opt for the word globalization.
Look at the life changes that are being predicted and being posed on our minds through the advertisements for bringing condom revolution in India. I don't know weather this fear of Aids is human created or is the curse of God for the human beings but surely this is working for the condom revolution. When a young collegiate boy goes for overnight outing with friends, this market created progressive father slowly and softly, in a hidden manner hands over the condom, so called safety weapon. Thank God, still either the imagination of bold Indian mother is away from the reach of the copy writers of these market movers or they didn't dare to do so for the fear of failure in their strategies.
Sex is the integral part of the life and from the ancient times India is holding the position of leader in the sex education. "Kamsutara" and "Khajuraho Temple" are the two of the most famous gifts given to the rest of the human world by the India in relation of this. When these market movers says that India and other third world countries should open their schools for the sex education, I wish to have a laugh with roar, what a joke, they are asking to open the door for the entrance of what that exist in our society since so many centuries. It is really unfortunate that elites of our present education system are also supportive of this and unable to see the camouflaged aim wisely kept hidden behind the fear of deadly disease Aids or we can say that fear of this disease is helping them to move a step forward in their aim. I recall and wish to share with you all, when I got the night fall first time; I went to my father asking him what was that? "You have seen the earthen pot, we use to store water. What will happen if we kept on pouring water in it" was the question of my father. "Surely water will flow out as soon as the pot is filled completely" I answered. "The same thing is here; this is a natural reaction, after a specific time our body wishes to indicate its readiness for the acquiring of reproduction capacity and does it in this way. You neither to worry about it nor to think about it because it is quite possible that till your marriage, this might happen several times with you it is nothing else but the indication of being completely filled". Just consider the same situation with a boy from the present era, he will not go to his father in this situation just because these market movers have successfully washed his brain with the thought that he belongs to progressive spices of human beings over his parents and salt of wound is that our western world inspired education system is helping him in making his thought stronger and stronger. Technical advancement is also working in favor of this.
This valley of difference between the generations is becoming wider also due to our vision towards the sex. For the western world sex is a just a physical phenomenon, It is a want of body which is to be fulfilled any where and any how, Where as we Indians look at the sex as most essential action of the life for keeping and natural balance and human population in tact , we believe in controlled use of sex where as for them sex is commodity of unlimited use. In the western world there is no space for the need of specific place and mental health for the sexual behavior because it is just a physical happening can take place any where and with any body. In contrasts to that we Indians are still with the mind set of thinking about place, partner and mental health before undergoing the experience of sexual behavior. The western world is steeping yet more step forward in this direction with the sex without intercourse, As for them it is physical so there is no space for the involvement of emotions. These are the basic differences in the vision towards the sex. I would like to conclude this, if the just one tenth of the amount, which is being used for bringing the condom revolution as the safety precaution keeping the fear of Aids at front , was made available for the research of curing the Aids, It is quite possible that by this time we might be with the cure of this deadly disease.
Coming to sensex, the first major change reflecting from this, it is going to fill our lives with two days of week with leisure time and I don't think to say any thing after quoting the phrase " Empty minds are the workshops of devils". If we look at our economy it is at hands of unorganized and diversified sector. No individual or group of individuals is in the position of controlling the market or giving specific direction to the market. The eagle eye of market movers is concentrating on getting hold and penetration in this area under the curtains of globalization. Just think about the changes the free market will go under the control and directions of few handfuls. The supporters are arguing easy and abundant availability. Just consider, our economy is partially open for globalization, Mango the king of fruits is now available through out the year in the form of pulp to give is lingering taste of mango shack but what about the health hazards due to the synthetics used for the preservation? Many might, will oppose me, calling my thoughts primitive, but this is again due to our attitude, developed over the last 20-30 years, of looking at things and happenings with the spectacle of western world.
I am concluding this with, friends third world war is on without human blood sheds. It is being fought on the grounds of moral and culture with the weapons of sex and sensex, which are more deadly and with more destroying powers even over the nuclear weapons because these are going to kill you in installment and step by step. What more do I say this is the life and life goes like this.
