A Comment on Changes in Rules for Tatkal Booking with regard to identity proof

My Comment on an article titled "Railways modifies identity proof rules for Tatkal travellers" published in the economictimes.com Dated 28/07/2015 at 10 pm.  


"This is a very  good amendment in the rules for Tatkal bookings. 

Now bookings can be done very easily and quickly on net as you need not provide id proof while booking. 

Only you need to keep any one of the identity proofs with you in original while travelling. 

And when you are in a group of passengers, then, only one person of that group is required to produce the proof of identity which is truly a very great relief to the travellers."

A Comment on Greece and European economy

My Comment on an article "Why rich European nations want the Euro to work" published in the economictimes.com Dated 11/07/2015 at 10 pm. 


"Very intelligent and interesting article about need for finding a solution to the crisis struck Eurozone economy. 

The author compares here with US economy and argues for following a similar policy to strengthen the Euro currency and thereby the Eurozone economy. 

Very deep analysis of the vital points and possibilities available have been discussed by him. Policy makers can think over these matters and find some tangible solution to the crises."

A Comment on capping withdrawals from PF money for social security

My Comment on an article "Government plans to cap premature withdrawal of PF money at 75% of total amount" published in the economictimes.com Dated 11/07/2015 at 3 pm.


"Good decision by government to cap the withdrawals from Provident Fund deposits. 

People should learn to save something for future, either voluntarily or by compulsion. 

Spending out all earnings for present needs only is not a good habit. If you get habitual at spending now for satisfying all present needs, then from where will you get money in the future after your retirement or at any other occurrences? 

Practice austerity from now itself to be happy throughout your entire life."

A Comment on PM Modi's question: Why can't Google be made in India?

My Comment on an article "PM Modi launches Digital India campaign; asks why can't Google be made in India" published in economictimes.com Dated 04/07/2015 at 2:40 pm.


"One may be thinking talking and dreaming is easy. 

But you should accept it will lead to action. Dreams make us think and thinking leads to talking and discussing things. Unless you discuss, you can't get clear ideas. And clear ideas combined with some determination to achieve something will definitely lead to action. 

So it is good to see our PM is thinking about all these things and prompting public discussions. So, our brain power can be invested in realising these dreams successfully when all of us contribute to it."

A Comment on running of families with less than Rs.10,000 per month income

My Comments on an article "92% rural homes run on less than Rs.10,000 per month" published in timesofindia.com Dated 04/07/2015 at 12:15 pm.


"Very discouraging figures. 
People are still far below the minimum standard of living. Even now, so many of the families are earning less than Rs.5,000 per month. 

How can they eat full diet required for their health. And how can they work and earn, if not able to live sufficient food? 

All the government schemes and projects are unable to provide any relief to these people. They prevail only on paper and does not reach the real victims."
