A Comment on China and Pakistan engaging in building an economic corridor in PoK region

My Comment on an article "China may not be interested in taking sides on Kashmir: Media" published in the economictimes.com Dated 16/08/2016 at 10:55 pm.


"It is somewhat an alarming situation if the economic corridor is developed by these two nations of China and Pakistan in the PoK (Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir) region. China should not help or assist Pakistan in going through this project. They can't bring breaches in the centuries-old relations between India and China through such provocative acts of aiding Pakistan, violations of LOC agreements, or creation of tensions in South China Sea waters, etc.

Regarding the hopes of arriving at some solution to the PoK region through mutual negotiations with Pakistan, Pakistan will never succumb the region to India or agree for some more tangible solution to the issue." 

A Comment relating to Meditation Posture and practice

My Comment on a slide show, showcasing five easy ways to meditate- "5 ways to meditate with ease" published in the economictimes.com Dated 12/08/2016 at 5:45 pm.


"Very useful and good advice for meditation.

One need not sit early in the morning or in a cross-legged position compulsorily. 

You can fix your own time and your own pose or posture for practising meditation. 

But don't skip your other duties. 

You may do it sitting in a chair or on your bed also, whichever suits you most comfortable." 

A comment on a first ever air plane being developed by a pilot indigenously and independently

My Comment on an article "First Plane to be made in India may fly out of Maharashtra" published in the economictimes.com Dated 10/08/2016 at 5 pm.


"It is really a very good news to see that we can build a plane independently and that too so much economically. 

Wish him good luck in his plans and achievements. Our governments should support such more and more people of talents by giving encouragement and financial aid so as to develop indigenous skills." 

Impact of the Goods & Services Tax on the price structure

My Comment on an article "How GST is going to impact the prices" published in the economictimes.com Dated 04/08/2016.  


"It is really a good news for all people. 

The Rajya Sabha has passed the bill with 100% vote. So, we can expect that it will be implemented as soon as possible. 

The common man, as well as all classes of people, will benefit from it. The prices can get cheaper by Rs.25 for every Rs. 100 paid if it is applied rationally and reasonably." 

A Comment on Automation to replace entry and mid-level IT staff

My Comment on an article "Automation to replace lakhs of entry and mid-level IT executives: TV Mohandas Pai" published in the economictimes.com Dated 02/08/2016 at 4:50 pm.


"I don't understand his point. 

When fresh graduates are not going to be hired, from where do they gain experience? And how can you create a pool of experienced people for higher profiles without providing them a chance to gain experience? 

It makes no sense. You know, your senior executives will be gradually retiring and you have to keep a pool of experienced talent or hire freshers."

A Comment on PV Narasimha Rao's contribution to Indian economy

My Comment on an article "25 years of reforms: How a PM with zero knowledge of economics scripted India's biggest turnaround story" published in the economics.com Dated 23/06/2016 at 4:30 pm.


"This article is a worthy tribute to that great personality, Mr.P.V.Narasimha Rao who, as a PM during the year 1991, kickstarted liberalization of Indian economic policy which laid the path for growth of our economy with reforms. 

He was a veteran congressman and had much insight, even though not of economic background. He acted swiftly with the help of Manmohan Singh, the then FM, to save the Indian economy from its worst situation during his tenure."

A Comment on Indian youth preferring RBI, SBI bank jobs over Facebook or Microsoft

My Comment on an article "India's youth prefer RBI, SBI over Facebook, Microsoft" published in the economic.com Dated 11/07/2016 at 4:40 pm.


"I admit that working in a Bank is considered as a pride and a good social status for the people. 

Even though they work extra hours, they get good pay and allowances and many benefits. 

Only thing is they get deprived of enjoying a good family life at some occasions." 

A Comment on FM lamenting at higher interest rates provided by Banks on savings schemes

My Comment on an article "Finance Minister Arun Jaitley questions high-interest rates on savings" published in the economictimes.com Dated 10/07/2016 at 12:50 pm.


"There is no doubt that progress of our economy as a whole is more important. 

But lending should consider it a top priority to provide assistance to small businesses and middle class/ poorer sections of the economy at reasonable rates. 

Other institutions and industries earning huge profits can be charged at higher interest rates. You can procure funds through these means and through the proper collection of Taxes that are being evaded by many people."

A Comment on holding social media platforms responsible for content hosted by them

My Comment on an article "New GST Bill will hold Facebook, Twitter responsible for hosted content: IAMAI" published in the economictimes.com Dated 28/06/2016 at 10:50 pm. 


"There should be some intermediary solution to this problem of holding social media platforms fully responsible for the content hosted by them. 

These platforms can not monitor and check each and every item they are hosting. It is practically impossible. 

You can't torture these free hosting sites like this and deprive the people of the rights and facilities enjoyed by them due to the free services these platforms offer." 

A Comment on a Chinese paper depicting Indians as having low morals and spoilt

My Comment on an article "Indians self-centered, spoilt, have low morals and blindly follow West: Chinese paper" published in economictimes.com Dated 28/06/2016 at 10:40 pm.


"Before talking about India, they should look at their own morality and ethics. 

They break all international laws in supporting Pakistan and others. 

They are spread all over India doing their various businesses and tell Indians should not leave India! One rule for themselves and another for India? 

The only thing is they are afraid India will become powerful. So, they are trying all means to demoralize India and Indians."
