suni51 replied to the topic No respect for woman - Delhi scenario.
I have lived in Delhi for years and with an area of almost 1500 KM2 with diverse population coming from different parts of the country and so many refugees to manage and the worst of all every opposition party making the life tough of administrators and government departments. I know this is no refuse for bad management for any city but this is a common factor for any city of the world and more so people of our country having no sense of behavior in general.

Hi,
Sania has improved a lot after playing with some top players. But I will say that Hingis is supporting her well. In case of leander and Hingis both are supporting each other..

I am really glad that she has Martina as her partner. Martina I guess should get back into the singles the way she is playing now.

The fact that they teach a language like a subject in school ends up with a person just scoring pass marks but never developing a love for the language. My children have two other languages in school.. but cannot speak even one, this is the case with many English medium schools.. Somehow children should enjoy the flavor of a language before they get into the grammar and stuff.
I wish I had learned at least one language in which I could write comfortably other than English.

Yes. This is not restricted Delhi alone. But the issue gained more importance considering the fact, it happened in the Capital Of India. All the administrative machinery is a stone's throw.

This is not confined just to Delhi.. it is the sate of our country.
I haven't traveled by public transport in a while. However, I have seen women carrying a baby and luggage while the man walks ahead of his other little kids and the weary woman.
My domestic help would work all day to feed her husband who would spends all the money watching movies and drinking. He doesn't work he either sleeps or watches TV all day long
These happens more often than a man getting up to offer a woman a seat on a bus.
These are not the exceptions but the rule. I do know a lot of men who go out of their way to make a woman comfortable, but they are few and far between.

Reviewing the progress made by the person will enable him to view how much distance is covered and How much he has to cover further in his journey to chase his cherished goals. This is highly essential .

The fees of these lawyers are increasing day by day just like the fees of the private schools in India.
You have written four posts in a row which is against the rule here...If we don't practice or follow the rules , what is the point in having them, the moderators and the other members who jump at others when they do this, too seem to have overlooked this...

The Article is very profound and complete in explanation as it does not only cover introspection about external success but also it says to work to remove internally existing and hiding wrong qualities. Working each day and noting down the improvement over the days is a very firm way of growth. The Article has helped to touch the chord and especially when it is from a divine Society it is more attractive. I would try to write down my points of improvement on a daily basis to keep a track of improvement and consistency. Thank you for the Article
In fact all that is required is to introspect each days activities dispassionately for a few minutes , at the end of the day and see where you have failed, gone wrong and how you can make amends and better yourself if possible .I guess that is good enough !

Fortunately for me, I'm adept in both my Mother tongue and English. That's the boon given to me by the Advertising field. As a Copy writer I'm supposed to write copy in both the local language and English.

It is right that we can write better in our mother tongue. But India have not single language. So it is very difficult to read languages other than mother tongue. If you write in kannada that only people for Karnatka can read.
That is understood and it is also meant for only those who are able to read the language and thats' precisely why we turn to English because it is universal and known to many more within our country as well...

True. Martina Hingis too has exhibited her Tennis Prowess. And Leander Paes combination is superb. Leander at 43 is the oldest player in the Tennis circuit.
