STILL IN THE SHADOWS!!


This may sound strange to many but its fact , yes so how many of us really show interest in football and that too indian football?. And the answer to it will be very few. Apart from some parts of our country (say bengal, goa,) very few people in other states are interested in this sports. Some do follow football but are very much excited to see the european leagues and are updated with each and every news of theres. They truelly might be knowing that Hull City a B-Legue team of EPL entered the league and created an upset and is now on the 3rd spot and is also a threat for every team. But very few might be knowing that Mumbai FC a debut team in i-League has done same thing by defeating likes of mohan Bagan, East Bengal and Md sporting and now are on 2nd position of the league.


So who is to be blamed for such indifference in publice attitude?. Ofcourse the sports ministry and the sports governing bodies are to be blamed.
Very few might be knowing that cricket and football came to india at the same time and football was also very keenly played by the indians but we couldn't cope up with the technological advancement in the game then, for that reason india returned from the 1956 world cup match where they were not allowed to play bare footed and that was it after that india never qualified for one. On the other hand after the world cup victory in 1983 in cricket, it became a religion for the people of india and football slowly slipped into darkness.


Now its high time to seriously think about the situation and try to sort out a solution for it. 10 years ago the nation league started which now became the i-League, so concentration must be focussed on it whole heartedly and ofcourse with some currency also so that the infrastructures, the grounds,the technicians etc can be improved. So the ministry of sports must start considering this issues and implement some for the enhancement of the game in india because the BCCI and the cricketers can themselves make money without anyones help through their broadcasting rights, advertisements, sponsorships etc. Its good news that one of our country's best player Sunil Chettri has got offers from Leads United ( a renowned club of England) and also from a Portugal club.
The most important in the factor of success of cricket is its connectivity. The local coaching centers are connected to the state and Ranji teams, which are very well connected to the national teams. So in football also the same strategies must be followed for its upliftment.
We really have talent but it should be groomed in a proper way so that our dreams of seeing India play in world cup may come true.

CAR FREE ROADS!!!!!


Imagine yourself walking on the streets of your city on your way to your daily work and to your surprise you see there's not even a single car on the roads.
No, this is not a dream and you are in your full senses. Yes, as our country has so many days dedicated to some special occasion as such mothers day,womens day ,pollution free day,so on and so forth, so what if we keep a day in the year where no private cars are allowed on the roads. Yes, it'll be a day, free of cars.
Now there'll be a stock of discussions on this topic that whats the use of such insane action.

But if one gets to the depth of the statement and closely analyses the pro's of this thing then he/she can emerge with some really astonishing benefits of such an action.
This would definitely save one person's one day's oil costs and would also help him to discover alternate mode of transportation which if he/she takes the most luxurious one also would cost him/her much much lesser than that of the oil prise he is investing. Apart from personal point of view this thing will surely help the government and also to our ecenomy.
This would also make the person to explore some of the facts which a pedestrain faces and the next time when he/she would move about in a car atleast they'll maintain some discipline.

This action would surely reduce some pressure of the heavy traffic, also enabling the traffic personal to relax a bit. And this can also reduce the carbon footprint thus blessing our environment.
So one can notice there are so many advantages in such an action.
But as always people like to raise their voices against evrything, so its quite possible here also, with people saying that whats the use of taking so much pain for some minute advantages.
Yes, true, but one should never forget the facts that" Something Is Better Than Nothing".
This is how revolution begins....
And there shouldn't be much a big deal in selecting 1 day in the whole year. And this can be initiated from the 4 metropolitans.
And what better place than our national capital to take the initiation. Yes, in Delhi there are more than 1 million private cars squeezing the pedestarians.The government should keep in mind one thing"just make a ripple, then it itself leads to a wave".

So this can lead to a great revolution by letting people to just park their cars in their respective gargages for just1 day...

@@TERRORISM@@


Most people have a very wrong concept about terrorism. Yes they think that the bomb blasts occuring here and there are the only means of terrorism.
So what is Terrorism??. It is anything which causes terror in peoples mind.
Bomb blasts are not the only terror people face, there are also these irresponsible political parties which never loose an opurtunity to spew the venom taking the policies of religion or other ploys to create hatred or division among people. So this is also a type of terrorism and the people should also deal with it. These irresponsible politicians themselves are surrounded my a security force around their homes and are least bothered about the innocent people who are facing the consequences.
These political parties always take the forefront either by catching up unmarried couples on valentine day and forcing them to either apply sindoor or tie rakhis and also forcing people to put regional languages on their shop hoardings.

Specially BAJRANG DAL which completed its 24 yrs on 1st of oct is playing a major role in creating terror all around. The greatest example of their insane activities is the recent incidents in mangalore, bangalore and in orissa, where they protested against the christian missionaries vandalising many chruches and also assaulting many people and property. They proudly call themselves followers of hinduism...does hindutva teach such principles?? and the answer to it will be a definite no. So if one opens their eyes widely and look to the depth of the scenario then one can find that such parties are also creating terror.
Recently the constitution banned SIMI declaring it a exteremist organisation, so why not BAJRANG DAL is being banned as it is also following exteremist policies and creating division,hatred and terror among humans and making them fight against one another.

Inspite of the arrests of some of the Indian Mujhaheedin's members related to gujarat and delhi blasts, again blasts took place indicating the fact that terrorism is never of monopoly, it is caused by multiple units. The police force is trying its level best to stop such terrorists attacks by implanting various security checks at important places etc..but it is also harrasing the common public and they have no other option than to deal with it.
But the most important thing that they are neglecting is that how equipped are we to deal with the aftermath. Yes they must concentrate of improving the quality and also the quantity of our emergency services so that they can easily handle the situations well after an incident.
The number of emergency services should be increased and if possible there should be one for every 2 streets so that they are within reach if something occurs. This would definitely decrease the death toll. And this would definitely create some sense of security in everybodies mind and everyone should also devlope a belief in their minds that they themselves can fight with the consequences.
