I think both incidents that happened in Dadri in U.P. and the riots in Malda in West Bengal are communal riots and both are to be apposed equally. The people who killed an innocent person in Dadri should be equally punished as those who spread communal riots in West Bengal and put fire in a police station and looted shopes and houses of other community. It the murder in Dadri was pre planned then the riots in West Bengal and Bihar were also preplanned, both should treated equally and both are anti National acts.

Our education system is good, but it requires some up gradation. Skill and original creativity is also to be awarded. Today only rote learning and memorizing is awarded and not creativity. So there is need to develop skills in our students with learning.

rambabu wrote: Marriage at  50 years ? No, Marrying another woman of the same age is Ok. It reminds more of companionship than marriage. I have seen such late marriages mostly when both of them or one of them  is a widower.  One may marry at any age. But when we talk of ideal marriage age, we don't have to consider exceptional cases of marriage at such advanced age. Some may marry even at ninety. But in most cases, ideal age is between twenty five to thirty. Apart from age, career and education get priority. One must first complete education and stabilize in job. This may take one to 30 years and in some cases even thirty five. But any way, fifty is too much. That means that half the life has already expired. I suggest that one need not marry at fifty or more. Simple companionship or live in relation will suffice.

We need to make education job oriented and also sim to develop personality and character. On the whole education system is okay. we just need to make better management of universities and schools by providing quality education, facilities and trained teachers. There is no point in comparing to ancient Gurukul system that may not suit current conditions.

Awards can be returned only once. How can these be returned again and again. secondly, killing of an individual at his residence in a planned way by making false announcement on village temple is not comparable to Malda incidents where crowd lost control. Also the protests were not only on killing of an individual in U.P. but these were also a reaction against pre-planned murders of authors/ rationalists in Karnataka  and Maharashtra.

Last year in U.P. a person was killed by a crow of 10 -15 bad mannered people, then started a shout of intolerance and the issue was made national and center govt. was made responsible for it. Many activists started returning their awards and many film actors were feeling unsafe in India. T.V. debates were going on this issue for months. After few months, in January this year crowd of lakhs of people gathered and communal riots occurred in Malda city West Bengal, and in Purnia district in Bihar. For many days after the riots has happened, no news channel took interest to show any news on the riots, and even a single activist have returned his award. The film actors have not said anything on the riot. Even when the center govt. sent its members to collect the information about the riots, they were arrested and send back saying that it is state's issue and center has nothing to do.

In my area, most families have Indian traditional toilets in their houses, but some people who have back ace or knee problem have western type of toilets in their home.

Rote learning still plagues our system, students study only to score marks in exams, and sometimes to crack exams like IIT JEE, AIIMS or CLAT. The colonial masters introduced education systems in India to create clerks and civil servants, and we have not deviated much from that pattern till today.

Are you sure that the said couple married to slog in the Orphanage?   No, because the couple intended to work together in each others company. Additionally, more than anything, they wanted  to work for a noble cause to help the society, which was their common interest. Because, they could not have children, they wanted to  treat all those children left or thrown in the garbage bins, as their own.

Jincy Aby chosen the best answer for the question What makes a man successful?.
For me, Peace of Mind is more important. Whatever you may achieve in life, whether it is money, materials or position, but still if you don’t have peace of mind, what is the meaning of all these accomplishments? You can conquer kingdoms, empires and even the whole universe; but if you cannot conquer your mind, what you can do with them? True success lies in conquering our own mind; and the whole life will become a perfect bliss!
