JOB opportunities high in India or foriegn. Why?

Posted By: kandasamy doss

Job opportunities are high in India because now India is developed so many mnc are open their branch in India. Here they invest low price then get high profit. So they open new branches from that we have lot of job opportunities have been produced

Posted By: keerthi

Yes job opportunities are more in India, which is developing now. Many foreign companies are Opening their branches in India in the name of BPO's and CALL CENTERS. The main reason why these foreign companies are opting India is due to the simple fact that India has many graduates and unemployed youth who are ready to accept a job with less pay then their foreign counter parts. Due to which they will gain more profits.

Posted By: sowbhagyavathi

As India is a developing country, the Job opportunities in India are more. India has large number of graduates and postgraduates in each and every field such as science and technology, IT sector, arts, etc. As the graduates and postgraduates in India are ready to expose themselves to the world of competition, they are ready to work for less pay. The main reason for that is, the people want experience and exposure to different environment where the chance of learning several things is more. Money matters less for people who have the capacity to prove themselves. The foreign companies in the present that's openings their branches in India because they knew that Indians are hardworking and they have the zeal to accept and work for the upliftment of their country

Posted By: meenakshisekar

No job opportunities are not only more in India but they are also more in other countries like china, Japan etc.reason is now Chinese. Japanese they are also equally competent to u and us know why china has seen a drastic change in their development? Bs they work even harder and smarter than us. Even more people and more opportunities are there in India do u known that we are also ranking high in unemployment?

Posted By: keerthi

As meena said As far as job opportunities are considered they are more in china and Japan but they don't give a chance to foreigners as in US. If we consider the opportunities for Indians I think there are more opportunities in India than in US or any other country abroad as most of the mnc's are opening their branches here.

Should the public sector be privatized?

Replies: Posted By: meenakshisekar

Yes of course privatization of public sectors leads to some healthy changes in an org. b's when you take public sectors u can find some slackness (or a little bit) delay in their services. But in case of private since service is there first and foremost duty they act rapidly. Posted By: ssrkraju Hi All, Privatization of public sector. Lot depends of which sector we are talking about. Let me clarify few doubts in the primary stage. Can we expect all private hospitals in our cities in our town which do not have an entry for poor people, can we have only private sector telephone companies, can we have private companies have complete control on oil reserves, can we have all transport be provided by private sector and RTC vanishes, can we expect an private sector to take care of our defense. In the same way we cant expect the government to set up an IT industry on its own, we cant expect them to handle all the load of flight transport. My point over here is both are not mutually exclusive. We need to accept the fact that both are here to stay and we cannot make it without one. They do have their importance and we need to deal this issue according to the context. There are some strategic sectors, which need to be under control of Indian government like oil/gas sector. The subsidy we enjoy will be never provided by a private sector. The government in this case helps its citizens to a great extent and making them available to its citizens. The ration card system is a great boon to the poor. Coming to some sectors like steel and mobile where both are present and a healthy competition among them always benefits the customers. It is also a point to be noted that Government itself cannot take the complete load just like it cant take the load of all flight customers where private sector is playing its helping role. Then there is education sector, which also has good competition with CBSE matching with any education system of either state syllabus or the schools coming up with their own syllabus. The public transport sector too is a mix of public and private and here you can see a striking difference. You can easily differentiate the profit motive of private personal whose salaries depend on the profit to their owner. In autos you can see some 6-8 people are dumped then starts the engine. I do accept that some services are best in private sector as they fear their job loss and their owners do get the best out of them by making them to work more no. Of hours. The lazy mindset of some public sector could be taken into account to convert it to a private sector. I would like to suggest that counseling sessions for these to have a better future by working for the organization would help it to grow better and be under the public sector umbrella. We can take some examples by some of our previous strategies, which helped us to renovate dull companies, which lacked in performance. If a private individual is going to buy the company and could change its fortunes, why can't the public government do it? It can. Running away from a trouble is not a solution. Facing it head-on will produce better results. Posted By: mallika_pillai I totally agree with Mr.ssrkraju.... As he said it depends on which sector we are talking about. And both have a different importance of their own. Privatization has its own proms and public sector have their own. I think both needs to be there as far todays development is concerned. Taking the view it is right that the work at public sectors is not working the way it should. But if everyone understands the responsibilities then it can also work the same way as private sectors. Again I think for some sectors it is ok otherwise it should be done by the respected ones itself...

Posted By: pooja

Hello friends, According to me arrange marriages are better if we consider there will be 99% success in arrange marriages there will be more mutual understanding in between both of them. And the foremost thing is that there will be support of our parents. Most of the love marriages are unsuccessful so according to me arrange marriages are best.

Posted By: meenakshisekar

What pooja says is absolutely correct When u get a new bond through arranged marriage naturally there arises a demand for mutual understanding b's when u are entirely new to a group of people u will try to know people their likes, dislikes hence u will become more flexible and u could win their hearts so that in a difficult situation u'll get everybodys help.

Posted By: sowmya571

Hello Well success of BOTH marriages depends on our self basically. If u finds a person whom u can feel comfortable to live with, be happy and secure in their presence then whatever love/arranged our marriage will be successful If LOVE marriage we tend to know ab them before itself and then start thinking of getting married. Well Love marriages fail because people tend to find faults in others /lack of understanding. Whatever but there also cases where relationship is maintained in wonderful manner In arranged marriage it becomes an obligation to live with the person. Adjust with them thru out our life n parents do help /guide us if therez a problem. Thatz the major difference Well in both cases for a relationship to be healthy Understanding /Love /affection/ adjustment/ Responsibility is necessary ... above all Parents who dont agree for love marriage basically want us to be in better position /live happily. Considering /respecting them is also equally important.

Posted By: deeptisehgal

Hi all I feel in a love marriage you enter with a lot of expectations where these expectations have already reached a level and then you start expecting more than that. But in an arranged marriage you have the expectations but there is no particular level already set. You set those levels after marriage. I would rather say that there is no guarantee for any type of marrige. Even an arranged marriage might fail and love marriage be a hit or vice versa.

According to me what one needs to be focused upon is the level of understanding between the two whether it be a love marriage or arranged marrige. Of course other parameters do affect apart understanding. It should be a matter of personal choice rather than a matter of debate.

Posted By: vikas_lion123

As pooja and meenakshisekar said that love marriages don't last long and arranged marriages last longer I don't agree to this statement rather I would like to say that the success of a marriage is strongly dependent on the mutual understanding between the two persons as sowmya571 said, it depends on the compatibility of the two persons how well they can adjust with each other how much do they care about each other. What pooja and meenakshiskar is saying is based on the success of the arranged marriages is because of what seems from the outside that they are together, but in many cases its only the mutual adjustment and because they are ready from the first day to adjust with the other person and not understand them and end up there life in doing so. The most important aspect is here to be compatible as this enhances the outcome And lastly we have our responsibilities towards our parents so the marriage should be agreed by them and the compatibility of two persons who have to spend the life together should also be kept in mind,u can also consider this compatibility as love also. So what I can conclude on my side is that those one, which is love, and are then arranged

Effect Of Western Culture On Indian Youth "

Posted By: pavani

How there is head and tail for a coin, there is both positive and negative impact of western culture on India and especially on Indian youth, In past in India men were our traditional dresses, but now it is entirely changed, now the Indian youth moving with jeans, t-shirts, minis, micros, etc., here we can proud of that western culture, it bringing us with the fast moving world. But when we consider the pubs, it is the thing to be strictly punished. In pubs both men and women are in drastic stage, by taking drugs, it should be punished. And we need to felt sorry for that. And there r many things to be taken from the western culture.

Posted By: navedkhan05

THERE HAS BEEN AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF EFFECT OF WESTERN CULTURE ON US. IT CAN BE EASILY FELT BY THE FOOD, ATTIRE AND WAY OF LIVING OF CITIZENS.SPECIALLY ON DRESSES IT HAS MADE ADVERSE EFFECTS. SO IT IS NOT GOOD FOR OUR CULTURE.OUR YOUNG GIRLS ARE WEARING SKIRTS, MICROS, AND MINIS ETC. WHICH EXCITES THE BOYS LEADING TO SOME SERIOUS CRIMES SUCH AS RAPE ETC. BUT ON THE FLIPPER SIDE THE WAYS OF LIVING HAS BEEN GREATLY ENHANCED WHICH IS GOOD FOR SUCCESS AND GROWTH OF THE COUNTRY AND HELPFUL FOR IT IN HEADING TOWARDS SUPER POWER AHEAD OF USA. SO I FEEL THAT IT HAS BOTH GOOD AND BAD EFFECTS

Posted By: ulty

I Strongly believe that there is a substantial influence of western culture on Indian youths. Mere mention of the word 'India' signifies a place of cultural heritage as well as diversity. But the cultural legacy that we are showing to the whole world is becoming a thing of history in metropolitan cities. On one side we enjoy our so-called rich culture and really admire it but on the other side we find discotheques full of young guys and girls. Secondly, Joint family tradition; one of the biggest assets of India is now vanishing under the shadow of the so-called western culture. Nuclear families are taking place of many years' old values. Youth of today is more interested in their privacy rather than enjoying their lives with others. Individualization has broken up the joint family system, paving way for the youth to fall prey to drug addiction. This stage is the most vulnerable period of life where the youth need guidance, counseling, education and care by parents. So how did we get part of their culture over here, you ask, their culture has become over popularized here, through electronic media that everyone wants to be just like them. Because of that India has lost her identity from all other countries. Weve now become a copy cat to all other nations and we may lose our individuality. The reason is because, we want another image, we dont want to be the olden day - traditional country, which still hasnt become the so - called modern, even in the 21st century. We dont want to look like imposters to all other well developed countries. If you have ever thought of that, erase that thought because the image weve got planted in our minds is terribly wrong. India is not an imposter to other nations, it never has been, but will if the people of today continue to do everything they see on cable TV. India is an independent country now and has been for a while, with no such problems. The reason behind that is because our ancestors fought for us, so that we could have a future in our own way, not with any other way, which we are not used to. Im not saying that India should stop everything theyve learnt from western countries, but to have some individuality from other nations and to set an example to the other 3rd world countries and give out the message that there are other nations to set an example on. So, for the people who fought for us, for India to keep her dignity and to be a leader to other countries, we the people of today must be our own country and not be some other country, which were not. Everyone is his or her own countryman - why cant we be our own as well?

Foreign Television Channels are destroying our culture

Replies: Posted By: Roopa Foreign Television channels are destroying our culture In my opinion as the coin has too sides ... this topic is also having both advantages and disadvantages. Coming to advantages some of the foreign channels like BBC, Discovery, National Geography, Animal Planet, BSNC, Star sports, Ten sports... are very much useful to us to update our knowledge. And the technology used by these channels is excellent. But coming to the disadvantages of course there are some channels, which destroys our Indian culture. All it depends on our mind set. If we use those channels in right way they will be useful to us. If we use in wrong way it creates bad impact on our culture. Posted By: faraz Yes, I believe all in all the foreign TV are destroying our culture. We have a rich and diverse culture. But, western culture doesn't have such values and social esteem. They have a totally different mindset as they leave the child once his 10-12 yr old. They are spoiling the values and social fabric of Indians. Posted By: chris_ti_na1234 I feel that foreign channels are destroying our culture to a certain extend. But I feel Indians are people who are much on a positive side. If only the right

aspect of the channel that is right content is perceived then it wont do much harm. To be very practical ban on foreign channels is absurd, but a controlled telecast can be done. As Indian audiences are usually family, I feel that those programs that suit a family could be telecasted. Various channels of educational importance like discovery and national geographic are worth watching by Indians. I would like to raise a question whether Indian channels are promoting Indian culture. I think at first a proper rule should be made for the controlled telecast of visual media whether it is Indian channel or foreign Posted By: Rena HI, India is known and it is outstanding from other companys bcoz of its culture. Still it is known for its culture. Television is a form of media to create awareness among people and to entertain people. According to me, nothing is affecting our culture. Nobody is responsible for that. Each individual is responsible for his or her success or failure. SO foreign channels r not affecting our culture. Not only television, all the available sources will be a favor or against to us in the way of utilization. If u looks at it in wrong manner, it is against and vice versa. There r many channels such as BBC, DISCOVERY, STAR SPORTS, ESPN, STAR NEWS and many channels which gives us a high standard and gives the information about the nook and corner. But if we think that foreign channels are affecting our culture, then not only foreign channels, Indian channels are also affecting our culture. And it is wrong only if Indian channels affect our culture. Culture is not in the way of dressing and culture is not fashion. It is the behavior, manner etc. So according to me, all depends on the way in which w

US war on Iraq-justified or not

Replies: Posted By: ssrkraju Hi All, When we talk of US war, we have to take two dimensions of it. The war itself and the stage later. US war on Iraq was based on the reason of "Weapons of Mass Destruction" which couldn't be found. The heinous killing of thousands and torture to millions by Saddam Hussain and his sons is highly notorious. One has to punish them to death to retain humanity in this world. The ghastly incidents of killings shown in TV's in the early war days do show the barbaric nature of Saddam. If you can remember in one of the incident young boys in their placing bombs in their pockets with their mouth and hands tied killed twenties. In one of the evacuation process, some thousands of skeletons were found showing mass killings using mass of weapons of mass destruction. The war taking lives of Saddam Hussain sons is a great achievement and seizing of power from the dictator is quite appreciable. The other dimension is the suffering that is still borne by the citizens. The war on Iraq could be won with little resistance was a known fact. The American power was on show during the war but killing of innocent civilians is not an acceptable fact. No one can justify the death of even one person for no reason or mistake of him. The plight of the civilians during the war is more pathetic with no security and basic amenities. Loyalists of Saddam created much furor in the region to make things just worse but the fall of Saddam was celebrated all over. The task of America then was to restore peace and rebuilt the nation with a constructive

government and leaves the place as early as possible. Their return delayed and trouble mounted day by day to a situation, which is getting worse as days are passing by. Posted By: rajapattanayak Hi everybody... I don't think US war against Iraq was right. Every country has their own issues but if the country like US always does the same like in Iraq then the world is going to be hell. I am not in favor of Saddam but it is the internal issue of Iraq. Who gives the power and rights to US for a war to solve the problem by killing innocent peoples? UN is there. Did US take the confidence of UN before the war? NO..... Till now US army can't find any Weapons of Mass Destruction. So whats the purpose of that war then? In my opinion J.Bush only wanted the revenge. Thats allsince the work, which he has done for the peace of Iraq people, could be possible by UN and international committee. Posted By: sowmya571 Hello US war on Iraq-justified or not. Well COMPLETELY its A war on TERRORISM. We dont have any right to kill innocent people for somebody else. ITS NOT JUSTIFIED. Simply Saddam should be punished for the way he ruled Iraq, killing many people. Today his situation is pathetic in USA. No one is saying to reuse him rather than PUNISH him. USA has destructed completely the PEOPLE, RESOURCES, LOOTED EVERYTHING infact. IT EASY TO KILL BUT VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE A LIFE, which these mindless people will never know Posted By: meera The war on Iraq by US is inhuman activity. Many innocent people have lost their life due to the outbreak of the war. The attitude of US must have been to save the life of people from the clutches of saddam and his son. But the citizens of Iraq were the one who were mainly affected by the out cause of this war. As US is a powerful country with huge weapons, no other country can sustain before it. This can happen to any country tomorrow .So it is in the hands of we people to protest against this inhuman activity. Posted By: sandyhunter The only thing good from the war was the ousting of Saddam, but this could have been done without making such a big Hoopla out of it all. The way the war was carried out is totally unacceptable. Saddam had to be ousted for he was an inhuman dictator. Everything he has done is totally heinous from the invasion of Kuwait to the genocides perpetrated against his people. This victory of US was celebrated everywhere, though his policies will be denounced forever. But, the war raged by US was redundant, with unnecessary show of power. It is kind of a tradition for the American presidents to show off. From the world war-2 till the present day. The main objective of the US, which is pretty much obvious, was to fulfill its desire of controlling the oil resources in the Middle East, as there is a very high demand of oil in both the US and the European countries. It was a mere exploitation of the helpless people of Iraq. In my opinion the motive behind the war can also be collated with the 9/11.The whole scenario of 9/11 was very humiliating for the bush government. It had exposed major breach in the security and the failure on part of the government and the CIA. It had bruised the reputation of the country's very powerful history. To my knowledge that was the only such incident in the history of US where a terrorist group, and that did such great magnitude of

damage ironically happened in bush's tenure. So to clear that humiliating blemish on him the Bush administration launched the war against Iraq in the disguise of war against terrorism, after it's unsuccessful operation in Afghanistan to capture bin. Hence the excess shows of power to remind the world of its supremacy. So the war in Iraq

Hello Friends, Todays education system in India has developed a lot and according to me Indias education system is top most among all over the world. But in spite of this there are many people who are illiterate because of poverty many parents want to send their children but they are not able to because of such high school's fees so govt of India should introduce a rule such that they provide proper education to the children who are below poverty line. Even Big voluntary organizations can come forward and can help them making each and every child to be educated and developing our country...

Posted By: raghu

Hello, Education is an important aspect, which can decide the country's future. If the literacy in the country increases, obviously the Economy gets improved. It's better to know that the Govt. is coming up with midday meal schemes, but this alone is not sufficient to overcome the poverty or help the poor children. I suggest that the Govt. has to request the corporate companies and Private schools to help the poor children. And it's the responsibility of each and every individual to look after the poor children for a better future of that country. One can also help the poor children by sharing the knowledge like teaching a subject once in a week or twice in a week in Govt schools. This can help in building a bright future for that country.

Hello every body, Yes education in India has developed a lot. In olden days only few people in a family were educated and girls were not allowed to go to schools. But now the TREND is something different, there is no difference between a girl and a boy at any aspect. But still our India in not 100% literate. This is mainly due to the poverty existing in India.

Coming to the education system in India it is memory based education but not activity based. As a result there are very less people with good skills and leadership qualities. I think schools in India both public and private must give some importance to activity-based education also.

Instead of leaving the responsibilities to government in order to educate the poor children the private voluntary bodies has to come up, and the ro

Replies: Posted By: ssrkraju Hi All, Quality! A word that says it all about a product. We say, its a good product or a bad product. So, what is in first case Quality? Why is it directly proportionality with reliability and good will? Quality according to me is in conformance with some standards set to make a product more valuable and accountable. In Indian market some products do lack quality due to following reasons: Cost, Time, Attitude, Lack of Competition etc. It takes an initial cost to renovate an existing product to bring in quality and assurance of quality. The 'chalta hai' attitude of some producers is taking its toll. For example, every year some thousands of farmers are committing suicides for fake seeds. Many are dying due to food poisoning. Ill built buildings are collapsing due to lack of quality. The quality is but a Myth in India except for some Industries. In Global scenario, why are other companies gaining Indian market? Its due to quality. How many of us are using Indian TV's, shoes, clothes, and other accessories? The fact is that we do have faith in other companies as they take the responsibility of quality where we can be assured of the product. For a sustained growth in India, the quality base should be emphasized, the products should match with world-class standards, and then only we can survive in this global village. It is not enough for manufacturing quality steel, cement, IT products, etc. it is equally important to provide quality water, quality food, and quality air... Now, I would like to make a point here. It is each individual's responsibility to see that quality is provided in day-to-day life. Posted By: Leila hi all, this topic is quite interesting to discuss. Quality when I define in terms of Indian mentally its of two kind, one if the cost is more then they say "quality" is good. there is another kind of people who choose for "less cost more quantity but they never look at the quality. I think the major cause for other companies gaining Indian market is due to laziness of Indians, and there is a prestigious issue to use Indian product. remedy for this is everyone should be aware of quality and how we waste our resources to others Posted By: ssrkraju Hi All, If Quality is a Myth in India. Why are Multi National Companies coming to India to start their industries with our work force. The outsourcing of software products and services itself is accounting for a major chunk in Indian GDP. We do have quality products all over

and many organizations that take care of this. CMMi, SIX Sigma, ISO, AGMARK to name a few. Each industry has its own standards apart from this to be within acceptable errors. We cant take few incidents of farmers and conclude that we dont have quality all over the world. In spite of huge pollution that we create in water, soil, air, and the government is striving hard to give us clean water to the mounting population, which is increasing day by day by leaps and bounds. World looks at India for quality people. It is here that n no. of foreigners visit yearly and do stay in world-class hotels. Considering the population we have, the public services provided to us do match world standards. The rail/road/air network picking up accurate timings would stun even developed countries that could manage things with lesser population. It is upon us to invest little more and buy quality products and discourage low-quality products. It lies in our hands to weed out this problem. In developed countries the taxpayers pay nearly 30% of their taxes, whereas in India only 3% of them pay their taxes. This is a point to be noted, to demand quality we need to perform our duties first. A small example to close my talk. Consider the number of cine theaters we have and their punctuality they maintain. I doubt any country in the world to produce the same result. Posted By: cishawsharma Quality is a myth in India. In my opinion quality is not a myth in India. In any aspect like in consumer goods or human capability. in any sense we maintain a good quality. however in some areas we lack in quality due to economic problems. But in some areas we are doing our best. like in information technology we maintain a very good quality of work. but coming to some consumer goods we lack in quality due to socio-political-economical problems. We must also concentrate on consumer goods quality to improve our economic status.however we are concentrating in improving our quality. Posted By: sowmya571 hello Quality is a myth in India. Well today every company is striving to get good quality product or service.

To fulfill this need of customer the products were manufactured according to the standards like ISO,AGMARK .It is not a true fact that we r not able to sustain against global completions we know many industrialist like Rathan tata,mittal were from India .But to some extent we r also failing in producing Quality product due to economic & political problem.

Severe punishment must be given to culprits who indulge in crimes. This is the main point where we lack when compared with other nations. In Arab countries if any person commits heinous crime like rape, he is given capital punishment or severe punishment is given depending upon the crime he has done. In India, we dont have any such law. Recently her driver, but what punishment was given to the culprit murdered a call center women employee????? Either fine will be charged or he will be put in jail for 3-4 months. Will this fine be the correct punishment for the culprit??? The law must be changed; punishment must be made severe, so that no other person even thinks of committing such crimes against women

Hi, The position of woman in India compared to other countries is poor. In some villages they are considering woman as a kitchen bee. This type of attitude has to be changed. But compared to the early days, these days women are coming out freely and participating in every field. This is a good sign. Also, as our friend sruya said the law has to be changed is exactly correct. If the law was changed then these crimes will reduces.

Ya I agree what shriya says. If we take the case of Dowry System women r made to suffer a lot in India compared to other countries. We see daily in the newspapers women setting themselves ablaze bcoz of this. They r tortured by their husbands and in laws fr getting more and more from their parents the women should suffer like this. Govt should take necessary measures to stop Dowry system in our country to prevent the women committing suicides.

Indian villages-our strength or our weakness?

Replies: Posted By: ssrkraju Hi All, Indian Villages - The name itself brings in a lot of happiness and fun-filled memories. The place where we can smell the land, we can see all-round greenery and peace far away from the chaos and hustle life of cities. The calmness and serenity of the atmosphere sends is in itself a positive outlook. Village is the place where our daily rice/wheat comes from. It is the place where our daily commodities like sugar, honey, tea, coffee, milk, oil, wood, etc comes from. The list is endless. The credit for ecological balance also goes for the villages where the trees take care of the pollution that we create in cities. The term village itself signifies Strength. It is truly termed as the backbone of India. A developed India need not abolish its villages. The cities and villages have to go hand in hand to achieve considerable progress. The GDP growth where other sectors are scoring more is due to the fact that they have been stressed more and more amount of inputs are being diverted to these sectors. Consider 1960's where the green revolution has provided India with enough food stocks that it could even export food. It could be a pathetic stage for a country like India to import food for its citizens. We still do remember the Bengal's starving where thousands of people died lack of food. India may grow be leaps and bounds in IT; Industrial, and other sectors in cities but Villages are going to stay as a major strength for any developing country like India. Posted By: sowmya571 Hello Indian villages-our strength or our weakness? Well they are strength to our nation 1 it contribute to POLITICS 2 They bring AGRICULTURE to maximum level 3 They also do revolutions when things get complicated infact necessary for our nation

Well things shud be changed a lot Posted By: sidhu Indian villages-our strength or our weakness? Hi friends, Yes I agree with soumya to say that Indian villages are strength rather then weakness, even though our country developing in sectors like science & technology but At the same time we have to agree that our economy depends a lot upon agriculture sector, which is in turn, depends upon village farmers. Indian villages are existing still b'coz of their great tradition & values, even though there is lack of infrastructure for the farmer to farm agriculture land still they are growing seeds in their land due to their great will power which makes feel India to be a proud nation. So friends I m very happy to say that Indian villages are strength to the nation. Posted By: dpak Hi people, Indian villages are our strength, bcoz they contribute the maximum for our agricultural sector as pointed out by soumya and sidhu. But I would like to add by saying, most of our Indian population (more than 70%)lie in the villages.lately, these people are moving into the cities to find jobs and for a better living and end up in slums. Therefore I feel the government shud develop the rural areas (other than agriculture) and provide more job opportunities to them, so that they could be stopped from migrating into the cities (and eventually end up in slums-which has to be eradicated from he cities). Moreover, this way they can utilize the population of the villages to develop their own villages and hence also our economy. Its high time our villages are developed!!!! Posted By: satyadev I too agree what my friends told... Villages are the Core Parts to India, In all aspects People in Villages are contributing for Nations Health and wealth, Agriculture ...Handicrafts...etc We have to support the People in Indian Villages for their growth our Nations economy, by providing all the facilities for their work. Posted By: rhea As most of my friends have mentioned here that villages are undoubtedly the strength of the nation I like to add few points here that as the bricks, though too small, form the base of a huge structure, the villages are also the backbone of the economy, politics, and population of a country. And when it comes to a country like India whose economy even today, largely depends on agriculture we cannot deny the contribution of the Indian villages. Moreover the small scale industries, handicrafts take an important role in the growth of the economy. Event though we have become strong in technology we cannot deny the manpower which comes from the large population of the villages. The concentrated population in Indian villages determines largely the fate of Indian politics. So I must conclude that we should take care to strengthen our this strength by providing proper education, healthcare, awareness, and required help in other sectors. Posted By: cishawsharma Obviously our villages are our strength. But we are unable to recognize the importance of our villages. Our villages are the hubs of our nations economy. And our culture and

heritage is our village. But due to some climatic conditions some of our villages are still poor and economically backward. New technology must be introduced into our villages. The most serene and beautiful places in our country are only villages not cities. POST YOUR VIEWS ON THIS TOPIC ..

What is the effect of movies on youth. (Is it good or bad)?

REPLIES:

Posted By: keerthi

Hello friends, The Indian movies greatly effect our youth. The main purpose of watching movies is for the sake of entertainment or to have some relief. Every thing is ok till that point. But when we see a movie definitely we grasp something from that, some people may grasp good and some bad. The general attitude of the people is they quickly grasp bad things and they over look good. If something good is depicted in movies they usually say its "over" or sentimental. And most of our movies in India are love oriented and there is nothing creative about them.99% of the movies are based on a love story. These are influencing the youth to a great extent. Once our Indian culture is that a girl and a boy marries with the consent of their parents and well-wishers. But now by seeing the movies people try to imitate the characters in a movie. Most of them are committing suicides if they fail in love. Love is just a part of life why should one give up every thing if they fail in love. I think Indian movies should improve in certain aspects. The only motive of the directors and filmmakers is to gain more collections from movies. They should not think in that way. A movie can influence many minds. So they must think well before making a movie. They should see that they are creative and in some way different from routine.

Globalization - Advantages & Disadvantages

REPLIES: Posted By: BINNY

Globalization has many advantages for developing and developed countries. But, this has lead to a great dissatisfaction among the under developed/developing countries. Though Liberalization has many impacts on any country's economy, it has increased the per capita income. Due to globalization the business market in the world has no boundaries, they can market their products in any part of the world. This has improved the chances of laying hands on global markets & technologies, which would definitely increase our Quality of Living Standards. But globalization has lead to a major dissatisfaction among under developed/developing countries where they are cut off from the rest of the world. This has also increased the chances of inferiority complex among these nations.

Hello " Globalization - Advantages & Disadvantages " The Era of Globalization" is fast becoming the preferred term for describing the current times. Just as the Depression, the Cold War Era, the Space Age, and the Roaring 20's are used to describe particular periods of history; globalization describes the political, economic, and cultural atmosphere of today. People around the globe are more connected to each other than ever before. Information and money flow more quickly than ever. Goods and services produced in one part of the world are increasingly available in all parts of the world. International travel is more frequent. International communication is commonplace. This phenomenon has been titled "globalization." These are major advantages of globalization While some people think of globalization as primarily a synonym for global business, it is much more than that. The same forces that allow businesses to operate as if national borders did not exist also allow social activists, labor organizers, journalists, academics, and many others to work on a global stage. There is a fundamental problem with globalization, which will cause international tension and trade disputes without arresting the process. The problem is the irrational nature of the global market, coupled with the extreme vulnerability of the poorest and most marginalized in emerging economies to sudden changes in exchange, interest rates, or big investment decisions. Globalization therefore can sometimes be destabilizing. Everyone sells when the price is already rock-bottom You can have a bizarre situation where everyone privately thinks that the currency is already too low, but continues to sell hard only because they are certain that everyone else thinks the currency still has further to fall. Rates fall through the floor in a mass wave of panic selling, as dealers dump currency in the near certain knowledge that they can buy it back at a profit in a few minutes, hours or days. Well it has got tremendous benefits as well as its own pitfalls
