Jai ho why ?

It's been a bit late , but never mind water & thoughts used to  find their way now & then. I n last 4 months it seems that 'Slumdog Millionaire' has become the talk of the town. Every person who's opinion is counted & all the others (who wants their opinion to be counted) are now trying to become a walking & talking encylopedia of the film.A majority of them at first didn't care about some slum movie but when it starts to get recognized in different film festivals & award  functions then it becomes a national duty for such concerned (?) ones to give their valuable(?) comments on the movie, to these people it seems that SM is the only movie till date which has represented the true spirit(!) of indian society & culture.
But is it really that so ?

RAM NAAM SATYA(M) HAI ?

There is no dearth of amount of material written on what had happened on 07/01/09 in Indain corporate industry & Indain share market .Fourth largest IT company of India Satyam computers added one more feather to it's cap, from it's head quarters in Hyderabad unreveals the largest coporate scam of indian corporate history. Company's M.D Mr Ramalingam Raju in one of his letter to board accepts the fact that to attract more investments balance sheets of company were been forged for almost a decade & now the gap b/w real & paper assests of company are beyond any repairable limt & now boom!!!!!!!!! a whooping scam of 8000 crore is laid infront of investors & employees as a new year gift.(?)
What happened afterwards ?, what enlighted(?) TV channel's reporter, experts, politicians, officers etc said ? , what disaster management steps were taken ? Thats all another story. I shall not waste mine or ur's precious time in lamneting it again, but what's pinching me since last wednesday is that 'Is there is n't any value of some social moral responsiblity of those people who claim to be in top of our society pyramid ? Could the desire to earn more money by hook or by crook is so high that it set backs all other priviliges, power , talent or self respect that one can posses ? there are n't many people in this country who r on the board of INDIAN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS (ISB) , who receives golden peacock award , who have 188 fortune 500 companies in their client list, who own foruth largest IT company, who have 53k peoples trust on their shoulder & who have power to handle money of lakhs of people, but Mr Raju posses all that & was all that. They say 'power corrupts & absolute power corrupts absolutely', thats what happened with Mr Raju. His act is now a paradox to the very name of the organisation. SATYAM now no more holds the SATYA(truth).
Now one question is still in my mind , as a 22 years old fresher who is going to join corporate world in 6 months , who is going to enter his new phase of life, i want to know what is the value of moral & social ehtics in corporate world when a fraud is revealed at such a level ?, are all these terms are meant only for books & libraries ?, don't they have any practical implications ?, what a student (as they say who is the future of nation) should learn from it ? Please answer this question.

Much ado about nothing

Finally 10th september has arrived & it's now going to be end also ,but nothing as such has happened as media was hyping for last so many days.No earthquake,No tsunami,No typhoon,Nothing ? I am talking about the current headache of media "Large Hydron Collider" i.e LHC .I am not going explain about what it is ?,where it is ? ,etc(as every one out there going to be a scholar in the subject,thanks to media).In past one week media become the prophet & was able to forsee the imminent doom(which didn't occur LOLz).The chaos & cry so aroused that it lead to many heart failures,mental depressions & even some sucidies around the globe.Death always fear humans, cases of group sucidies are able to create enough dpression & fear among people,but here it went too far away as this event was potrayed as "END OF THE WORLD",so level of fear among people can be understood.
Journalism should have some sense & it should not create fear or confusion among masses.What now days is going on is called "yellow journalism" & it should be avoided as it is hampering the very idea of journalism & it 's soul.This fourth piller of democracy should understand it's responsibilities & act accordingly.
