A Comment on UK's proposal to increase the minimum salary norm of IT employees for entry into UK

My comment on an article "UK proposes increasing minimum salary of IT employees entering UK  to 41,500 pounds published in the economictimes.com Dated 28/01/2016 at 2:50 pm.


"They are legitimate in making their policies and taking decisions to safeguard their local manpower. It should not be seen as anti-Indian or anti-IT industry policy. 

So, whichever company may want to transfer their employees to UK or USA should bear the burden if they are interested in doing so for their company's overall benefits."

A Comment on odd-even rule and its positive impact on traffic management and productivity

My Comment on an article "The odd-even rule may have failed at pollution control, but scored in traffic management" published in the economictimes.com news dated 10/01/2016.


"It is a good start if it resulted in lesser traffic jams. 

Even though the main purpose of odd-even vehicle movement rule was to control pollution, traffic jams are also a grave concern for public and for providers of essential services. 

Lives of serious patients could be lost due to traffic jams. Further, time spent in traffic jams is a wastage of most of the productive time of people. Manpower gets lost in traffic jams and results in unfinished projects as much of the time was already lost and you can't complete your work by deadlines. 

Furthermore, there is the mental torture that you suffer at traffic jams. It also affects your performance. You can't be so much productive as that which you could have performed with a fresh mind. 

So, it has been a good scheme launched by Arvind Kejriwal and it should be continued and also followed by other cities and metros in all corners of India."

A comment on Aadhaar ID benefits and mobile phone availability to weaker sections

My comment on an article "Aadhaar ID saving Indian government about $1 billion per annum: World Bank" published in economictimes.com news dated 14/01/2016 


"It's a real fact that Aadhaar number has created wonders. 

The direct subsidy transfer is a good tool in controlling mishandling of funds as also in saving a lot of time. Digitalisation can help smooth flow of transactions without any tension and save both time and money. 

But, it needs that every person should own a mobile phone. It is an obligation on the part of government also to make sure that every person among weaker sections of economy also possesses mobile phone to reach to their services. Those who may not afford to buy one should be provided with free mobile phones along with the knowledge how to operate them."

A Comment on Paytm team and their success

My comment on an article "How scientists based in Canada are vital cog in success of Paytm" published in the economictimes.com Dated 02/01/2016 at 3 pm.


"Vijay Shekhar Sharma has taken a very bold and adventurous step in founding Paytm. 
It is great to see that he is accompanied by highly talented people in his lab at Toronto. 

Paytm has gained much popularity in India in such a shorter period. The credit goes to him and his team of people.

It's really a great risky job detecting and managing the tricks of fraudsters who daily involve in newer malicious technologies to make money from their mischievous and fraudulent acts and transactions. 

I wish him and his team best wishes in their successful management of the circumstances to build a healthy paytm business community."

A Comment on increasing trend of gold imports by India which is not good for our economy

My comment on an article "Gold imports likely to touch 1000 tonne this year, up 11%" published in the economictimes.com Dated 22/12/2015 at 11 pm.


"This is horrible. So much of gold imports means so much of funds outgoing from our country. 

If 1 kg. of gold is supposed to worth Rs.25 lacs, then imagine how much of money is going out. Hundreds of billions. What a horrible picture. 

There should be some measures to curb this. Running behind gold for all occasions should be restrained by people and use the money instead to invest in better options of income generating investments."

A Comment on Chennai rains and floods

My Comment on an article "Chennai rains: City turns island; road, rail, airlinks disrupted" published in the economictimes.com Dated 02/12/2015 at 10:45 pm. 


"Too much frightening atmosphere in Chennai. Rains have created a scary situation disturbing the lives of people. 

This kind of worst situation has never been witnessed since many decades in Chennai. It has become an island completely cut off from approach by even rescue providers. 

It has been more than one week since the Tamilians Diwali festival (Karthika pournami day) it is continuing like this. Added to that the devastating severe floods caused by the release of waters from canals and reservoirs due to incessant heavy rain on 01/12/2015 flooding the city completely.

Very sorry situation for the people of Chennai city and other neighbourhood places. May God help them in their distress. All those helping them either through social media or personally need to be appreciated and blessed with good wishes."

A Comment on Google spreadsheet and good samaritans helping Chennai flood victims

My Comment on an article "Chennai floods: Google spreadsheet comes to city's rescue" published in the economictimes.com Dated 02/12/2015 at 10:30 pm. 


"Very nice efforts are being done by these techies and good samaritans of Chennai in providing help to the flood victims. 

The rains are too severe this time flooding many places and rendering people homeless. Especially the continuous downpour on Tuesday and release of waters from all barrages has severed the conditions even more. Many localities have been flooded. Relief measures provided are not sufficient to meet their immediate requirements. 

So, the online crowd sourcing information and help offered would be of much help to those helpless victims in finding some refuge."
