It's not right to think that if one follows Indian culture they will remain behind. If the parents talk in their mother tongue with their children in the Home, children will certainly know the value of their Mother tongue. It all depends on the Home atmosphere and the parents.
Parents should talk in mother tongue at home, but most of parents are working and they think that talking to their kids in English will improve their communication skills in English. Today in almost all jobs in India English is required, so parents think to improve English skills of their kids.
Communicating in Mother Tongue, children will be benefited . , it helps in learning many languages including English. This was pointed out in in my previous posts.

rambabu replied to the topic Our sick Hospitals.
Health care system is in a Deplorable condition. Public Government Hospitals do not have adequate infrastructure, Private hospital though have good infrastructure, are ridden with corruption. Private Hospitals prescribe unnecessary tests which are no way connected the Patient's ailment. On the whole Health care system in India is in shambles . Health care system should be easily available even to the poorest of the poor.
To this effect , the Government should make policies accordingly as Right to Health is the right of the people.

The PM is rightly drawing attention of the masses to health insurance schemes. Awareness should lead to more persons getting health insurance to meet treatment costs. Govt. hospitals are not able to give proper treatment facilities because of the tremendous volume of patients they have to handle. If the govt. hospital has a good reputation like AIIMS then even the rich come for treatment at subsidised costs. There must be a graded system where patients are charged according to some set criterion so that subsidies are reduced. I agree that doctors should have a bond to serve govt hospitals for a minimum period if they have passed out from govt colleges.
As per the Report of the Steering Committee on Health for the 12th Five Year Plan of the Planning Commission, India has 19 health workers (doctors – 6, nurses & midwives – 13) per 10,000 people in India. WHO norms provide for 25 per 10,000 people. Most of these health workers wish to work in urban areas. In rural areas, the medical facilities are worse. They can be improved if all the doctors must have at least 3 years of practice in rural areas before they are granted permission to practice in urban areas. Further, the medical facilities must be excluded from the Corporate sector to make cheaper for a common man.

Jincy Aby answered the question What do you do to avoid boredom?.
The best way to avoid boredom is to be active always. If we are engaged in different activities, we cannot say the word 'boring'. But we are feeling bored whenever we repeat the same activity over and over and whenever we watch the same thing again and again. One can change their activity to avoid such circumstances. Taking rest for few time is another way to avoid boring.

An Alcoholic addict goes to the extent of taking loans and even sell the Mangal Sutra of his wife.I know many cases of Alcohol addicts dying a miserable death. We should not forget that liquor sales bring quite a big chunk of revenue to the Government. That's why, Prohibition has become ineffective.

It appears that limiting the sale of liquors in 5 star hotels, the Apex Court might have thought about the affordability too. Only riches would be able to have this addiction. Some controls will have to be there on the repeat visitors. Further, it depends upon the State Government how to implement this order so that none be able to sell the liquors otherwise. Those who are addicted would have to reconsider about their addiction for the sake of the welfare of their own as well as their dependents. If they do not do, law would take care for the social peace. We should not spare the rod to spoil the child.

One thing which is pushing back our people from our own culture is the attraction towards western culture. Parents think that it is beneficial to put our kids in English medium school, their names should look modern. Children also think following western culture looks stylish and modern. Even in villages people get attracted towards western culture, no one in today's generation wants to follow Indian culture because people think that if they not follow western culture they will remain behind.
