It is better to save for the future needs of your child at a very young age. There are different stages in a child's life. The first stage starts education stage as early as fourth year. And as the child grows,into an adult stage and attains marriage stage.
So, a wise parent, keeping these aspects in view saves in different ways in order to cater to the needs of the child. For this, now there are different policies like Policy for early education stage to the university education, may be for further education in a foreign University.

Workplace provides a plethora of opportunities for leaning new things. First of all, your academic knowledge can be put into practice. Secondly workplace makes you know what actually you are. You can know how to rise up to the expectations of your employers.

Recently some writers have been killed for their rationalist and unorthodox thoughts. Lates killing is of a Falit writer for allegedly writing Anti Hindu articles- actially he wrote against cast system that is dubbed asanti Hindu. Sahitya Academy has also condemnedthe murder of writers and requested then not to return the awards.

The suggestion for import of beef does not appear appropriate. India is major beef exporter. However this is now cow meat. Buffalo meat goes in name of beef. Banning cow slaughter and importing beef is self contradictory. Ban to be effective is to be on cow slaughter as well as on beef eating. But such ban can be only according to food habits and culture prevailing in he region.
In fact importing beef makes a lot of sense to me because f the following reasons
1, It puts an end to clashes that arise out d cow slaughter , the law for which is not at all clear cut
2, In India cows are slaughtered fr consumption after they are past their prime and are f no use fr those who sell milk or use them in cultivation purpose, which makes the meat rubbery and of poor quality.
3,Many beef eaters complain about the poor quality of beef available for local use whereas in other countries the quality is far better , so those who want to eat beef , may not be in a very large number in our country get a better choice sans the continuous friction that we have now because of the cow slaughter.
With due regards there are at least 40 crore people who eat beef and when I say beef that includes cow as well. You may find it exaggerated but that is the hard truth. So we can cater to them using our own organised sector which can take care of the demand and at the same time keeping the illegal butchery out of the picture.
If we go into history we have had cattle slaughter ban since the medieval times and even during Mughal times .When British came here they started the first slaughter house in Calcutta . However there is reference of a large number of Hindus , even Brahmins and some of the Hindu Gods eating beef in the Vedas. Coming to the present times , as many as 24 states have banned slaughter of cows because of the changed perceptions. The number f beef eaters is abut 80 millions which is a small number compared to the total population

It is not believable that gods eat beef. this rubbish statement is given my one political leader. In which Veda it is written that God eats beef. If we Indian wants to live with peace here, never listen what leaders are saying. Ignore these.
I agree. The current opinion and belief is more relevant. We need not bother about the food habits in ancient India. Even if the Aryans ate beef, that is not relevant today. We have to make law and abide by that according to current conditions. So it is okay to ban cow slaughter according to peoples' sentiments/ food habits in the region.
But I have to make another point. Thse days, buffalo milk is used more and hardly anyone consumes cow milk. There is no use of oxen in ploughing as tractors have replaced them. There is neither any use of cows nor we can slaughter them for food obviously owingto religious sentiments. How can cows live in human society! There appears only one alternative. These be declared protected wild animal and removed from the category of domestic animals in the states where cow slaughter is banned. Send them to forests for living as free wild animals.

Shampa Sadhya replied to the topic Your best virtue gained from work .
Though I have mentioned earlier what virtue I gained, I came to a conclusion after reading all the replies that a job definitely teaches all of us something good. Rather, I must say that normally what we lack is learnt while in a job. Some said about team work while one highlighted the capability to work alone and produce result. This is great and the best part is if we don't learn the new means then carrying on with the job will become difficult which will be not at all good.

Yes, to save child's future it is very important as well as essential to have a financial planning. One may not be able to plan big if their income is not that high but I would suggest that one must try to save whatever is possible for child's education because it is increasing day by day.

This is a very confusing as well as contradictory topic to discuss. I have no clear opinion regarding how to handle this issue but I can only say that in against of cow slaughter, human beings should not be butchered. Naturally, the government must come up with a strict law because killing of people should not go on. It has to be stopped and sentiments should be properly taken care of.

I just posted a comment on a Facebook post that said- Pork ban is ban in 56 Islamic countries so why make so much hue and cry on cow slaughter in India (the post has objectionable language in my humble opinion so I will not use the exact words). The post said it was a question from Amitabh Bachchan- I posted Why pork slaughter is banned in 56 countries?

Shampa Sadhya replied to the topic Why MBA!.
I am of the opinion that in this present age the MBA degree is a must. Dedication, experience and hard work are essential criteria for promotion but with an MBA degree the applicant or the candidate becomes a little more deserving for the higher post. More and more education can be beneficial but lack of it can become a shortcoming either at some point of time or in a particular corporate house.

Being tolerant is not easy . It comes from years of exposure to each others diversity. It helps maintain peace in society. In urban areas people live in segregated ghettos and thus do not develop exposure to other communities and tolerance does not develop.

It is Hindu bashing rather than anti Hindu which they cannot afford to be because, many of them are Hindus.Many think it is sophisticated to put down Hindus and their customs and beliefs and look the other way when such issues come up from minority religions...That is India's idea of secularism which people have gotten used to in the past years ..
One person use RTI to know that what is meaning of Hindu.But our constitution have not any definition of Hindu. For common sense here Hindu means who worship, Ram Krishna, Hanuman ji, Ganesh ji and all others Gods and godess. In India all persons who worship these Gods and godesses are zealot. They are not secular. Followers of all other religions are secular here.
I'm glad dear Anil that you have such broad views on religion. I too believe in " Live and let live."Now please allow me to say about my own experience. My wife is very religious minded. I'm not. We lived under the same roof for 49 long years. She follows her own way and I follow mine. Our children are highly educated and well settled. I never tried to force my own beliefs in her. She too cooperated is cooperating with me. No ridiculing. No heckling . Our secularism also says freedom to practice any religion. Fanatics are there in every in every religion. These fanatics are making their livelihood through religion.But i was never drawn to them.Nor I'm going to in future.
In my own state religious tolerance is very much there. When a Muslim meets me he wishes me " Namaskar" And I reply, " Adab Janab. "
In my state we go a step further, when a Muslim meets me he says- Ram Ram Bhaiya, in turn I say Alaikum Assalaam that means May peace be upon you. What is the problem as long it means peace for both of us.
No problems whatsoever. Rather, it is exemplary. Your greetings show how you respect each other. How tolerant you two are towards your respective religions. A great gesture indeed.
