Is Tamilnadu the best place for peace and prosperity?

Certainly Yes, but the question which was above raised a two decade ago can said 'YES, Very Good'. What's that truth lying inside of this question is that "Can be Tamilnadu maintain a peace longer?".

Tamilnadu is the place well known famous for temples in India and around the world which means peoples are in Tamilnadu believe that they are ruled by some superior power. Tamilnadu is the homeland of the Tamils and has existed since prehistoric times. The culture and artwork of this region are considered to be some of the oldest in the world. It is home to one of the world's classical languages, Tamil.

Peoples who are speaking Tamil scattering around the worlds, especially in central Srilanka, Malaysia, South Africa, Singapore, Pakistan and Mauritius. There are an estimated 77 million Tamilians around the world. It is top 30 Languages by Number of Native Speakers (17th place that consist of 77 million, first four places occupied by Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, English).

But what happened to unity of those peoples, will they accept Tamil as primary language. Indeed, they are not accept because of their pivotal thing is that money, obviously I too work for money but most of them never care about their language, if the unity of the people is become strength then peace of Tamilnadu will surge hugely.

Compare to other states of India terrorism and criminalize will low and best place for peace but if the unity of people slow down, definitely once Tamilnadu can become like Gujarat and Maharashtra, here we are talking about unity of religion because Tamilnadu is only state in India which maintain secular. Since we called India is a secular country but problem arouse only with religions in Gujarat and Maharashtra.

There are so much of fragmentations in the politics of Tamilnadu but no one come out to help people to maintain unity. Because they don't have a time to scolding each of themselves by their frauds. Please make them to work for people But How?

Unity is the only way to become success.Because you are well knew about the story of 4 bulls and a lion.

With love

Retracing Gandhi's last steps, 60 years later

This is where he walked his last steps before collapsing with a peaceful 'Hey Ram' on his lips, forgiving even in death his assassin. Sixty years after that day 'when the light went out of our lives', Mahatma Gandhi's spirit forces introspection at the sprawling white bungalow in central Delhi now named Gandhi Smriti.
The lane where the house stands is now called Tees January Marg after that Jan 30, 1948 when the world's greatest apostle of peace was felled by a bullet fired by Nathuram Godse. The house is 5, Tees January Marg. A mere address that is so much more for the nation.
And as India observes Wednesday as Martyrdom Day, children at Gandhi Smriti, or Gandhi Memories, look inwards to see what Mahatma Gandhi really meant to them. Even amidst the buzz of getting ready for the function that will be attended by President Pratibha Patil and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
'Do I follow Gandhi's thoughts? Yes and no! I don't use abusive words against anybody,' says Sheetal Panwar, a Class 8 student. 'But, I do lie,' admits her classmate Sajal Jain, shamefacedly, 'and I do fight, but not with punches.'
Hauling their bags, the two students of St Paul's in south Delhi school are looking at the small canopy marking the exact area where Gandhi fell at 5.17 p.m. on Jan 30, 1948.
The two are among the many schoolchildren in the complex, where marigold garlands hang from fences, strings of little bulbs line paths and awnings of white cloth billow in the chilly breeze.
As they walk in the weak sunlight, children in a dozen different school uniforms sit in clusters, sharing their food or talking animatedly. Meanwhile, workers run from one end to another, looking busy, sometimes armed with a can of paint or hauling a cart, laden with wooden boards or potted plants.
About 1,500 school students are rehearsing Gandhi's favourite hymns for the prayer meeting to mark the 60th anniversary of the assassination.
For others, this is where Gandhi moves out of textbooks to become a real figure, who lived - and made a difference.
Inside the two-storey whitewashed building, 54-year-old Hannah Thomsen, a Danish tourist, moves from one wall panel to another, reading quotes from Gandhi.
'I first thought, is this a school?' laughs Thomsen. She and her husband have come to take a look at the place because 'like Hans Christian Andersen is identified with Denmark, for us, India means Gandhi'.
On the covered walkway beside the extensive lawns, Tia Shuyler and her family read the story of the 1942 Quit India movement.
Her father, William Shuyler, points to his daughter as the 'prime motivator' for getting them to Gandhi Smriti on the last day of their India sojourn.
'I had studied about Gandhi in my school, but it was really in context of his spirituality, where he is grouped along with Martin Luther King Junior and Mother Teresa,' says Tia, 23, a student of political science from the US. 'I was more interested in learning about his political views.'
During her first visit to this country, Tia has often been asking herself what the Mahatma would think of modern India. 'In fact, when I saw the traffic here, I asked my mother, what would Gandhi think about it.'
She feels it is time for another Gandhi. 'I am very glad that he was in India, but we need somebody like him right now in America.'
As news came in that terrible day, India's first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru said over All India Radio: 'Friends and comrades, the light has gone out of our lives and there is darkness everywhere...'
He then went on to say in an unforgettable, moving speech: 'The light has gone out, I said, and yet I was wrong. For the light that shone in this country was no ordinary light. The light that has illumined this country for these many years will illumine this country for many more years later, that light will still be seen in this country and the world will see it and it will give solace to innumerable hearts.'The warmth of that light still shines, as is evident from just a walk through Gandhi Smriti--- Thanks to yahoo!!!!!!!

Let's salute India's 58th Republic

The Constitution of India came into force, and India declared itself as a "Republic" on January 26, 1950, a date thereafter celebrated annually as Republic Day in India. The Constitution had been drafted by the Constituent Assembly which was set up when India gained its independence from the British in 1947. This, in fact, was a deliberate act: the 26th of January was initially India's "Independence Day", one of Mahatma Gandhi's many symbolic acts during India's struggle for freedom against British colonial rule, and the adoption of the Constitution on this date was felt able to strengthen its initial meaning, one calling for Indians of all ages to declare their freedom from the British Raj. It is one of three national holidays in India, the other two being the nation's Independence Day on August 15 (since 1947) and the birthday of Mohandas K Gandhi or Mahatma Gandhi on October 2. And so, after the disposal of the Empire of India, King George VI was the last and only "King" of modern India.

To mark this occasion, a grand parade is held in New Delhi, the Capital of India, beginning from Raisina Hill near the Rashtrapati Bhavan (Presidential Palace), along the Rajpath, past India Gate and on to the historic Red Fort in the old quarter of the city. Different infantry, cavalry and mechanized regiments of the Indian Army, the Indian Navy and the Indian Air Force march in formation, decked in all their finery and official decorations. The President of India, who is also the Commander in Chief of the Indian Armed Forces, takes the salute. The Chief Guest of the parade is a Head of State of another nation. The parade also includes many traditional dance troupes, to symbolize the cultural heritage of India. It traditionally ends with a colourful flypast by Air Force jets in a tiranga formation. Similar parades are held in the capitals of all the states of India, where the Governors of the respective states take the salute.

Inflation rises to 3.83%

Wholesale price index-based inflation rate grew by 3.83 per cent for the week ended January 12, as prices of manufactured goods and some food articles edged up.
Inflation is still below Reserve Bank's forecast of close to 5 per cent for the fiscal, and bankers expect the central bank to soften its monetary policy stance when it comes up for review on January 29.
"It is likely that the RBI would cut repo rate by 25 basis point in order to align rates with the global trend," HDFC Bank chief economist Abheek Barua said.
Inflation rate for the week ended January 5 was 3.79 per cent and 6.15 per cent in the year-ago period.
CRR rate could be left unchanged as there is enough liquidity in the system, Barua said, adding that further interest rate cut by the US Federal Reserve is not ruled out when it meets on January 30.
Finance Minister P Chidambaram yesterday said in Davos: "Our interest rates are set in order to contain inflation but if (high interest rate) is a dampener to growth, we will respond through appropriate fiscal and monetary measures."
Admitting that there could be an indirect impact of the financial crisis in the US, he said the government was, however, not in favour of putting curbs on capital (inflow).
However, RBI Governor Y V Reddy had said: "We will continue to be sensitive to that (high crude, food prices) as they are essential commodities which have very great impact on the inflationary expectations."
During the week, prices of maize and rice got expensive by 1 per cent, while gram, fish marine and jowar declined by 5 per cent, two per cent and one per cent respectively.

Rel Power IPO to make Anil richest Indian

Reliance Power Ltd's IPO, the country's biggest, has helped the promoter Anil Ambani whiz past elder brother Mukesh and NRI tycoon Lakshmi Mittal at the top of India's richie-rich club, with his wealth soaring to more than 60 billion dollars.

As per a list of richest Indians put out by renowned business magazine Forbes late last year, Mittal and Mukesh Ambani were ranked at the top two positions, followed by Anil at the third position.
At Rs 450 a share IPO that was concluded last week, Anil's stake in Reliance Power, to be listed in early February, would amount to about 13 billion dollars. Even before the issue, Anil's fortune was on an upswing while those of Mukesh and Mittal fell since the Forbes list was announced.
Forbes had calculated LakshmiMittal's wealth at 51 billion dollars, based on the value of his shareholding in the world's largest steelmaker ArcelorMittal as on November 2.
However, a plunge in ArcelorMittal's market value since then (about 20 per cent down in past three months) as well as a small drop in his shareholding has cut down his wealth by close to 12 billion dollars.

Mittal's current holding in ArcelorMittal stands at 623.62 million shares or 43.04 per cent, down from 44.79 per cent in November, giving him a net worth of 39.1 billion dollars, on the basis of the company's closing share price of 62.7 dollars on Friday in New York.

According to Forbes list, the net worth of Mukesh and Anil Ambani stood at 49 billion dollars and 45 billion dollars, respectively, as on November 2. However, since that date, the total market capitalisation of Mukesh Ambani group has dropped by 2.95 per cent from Rs 5,19,557.33 crore to Rs 5,04,316.24 crore as on January 18.

BSNL mulls to come out with IPO

The state owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), the India's biggest phone company by revenues, is all set to make the most of the current boom in the stock markets and an initial public offering (IPO) is on the cards. But it is not just upto Kuldeep Goyal, the Chairman and Managing Director of BSNL, to take the call, the final decision lies with the government. BSNL's earlier attempt for a stock market listing failed to take off because the previous Telecom Minister, Dayanidhi Maran, rejected such proposal. The Communications Minister A Raja is more keen than his predecessor to list BSNL. BSNL is looking at diluting upto 20 per cent stake over the next 6-12 months. The company already accounts for about 47.3 million line basic telephone capacity, 4 million WLL capacity and more than 37,382 fixed exchange. BSNL's strength lies in its massive network that ranges from homes and PCOs in every Indian town from fishermen to farmers.

Investors lose 160 bln dollars within minutes in India share market

Investors lost 6.55 trillion rupees (some 160 billion U.S dollars) on Tuesday within minutes of opening of the Bombay Stock Exchange, which was immediately suspended for an hour after the 30-share barometer index Sensex hit the circuit limit of 10 percent.

This loss comes on top of over 11 trillion rupees (some 300 billion dollars) loss suffered by investors in the last six days.

The Sensex lost 5,251.15 points in last seven trading sessions including Tuesday's early morning trade till suspension, while investors' wealth -- measured in terms of cumulative market capitalization of all the listed companies -- has declined by a whopping 18.4 trillion rupees (some 501.8 billion dollars).

As per information available on the Bombay Stock Exchange website, the total market capitalization stood nearly at 60 trillion rupees (1.63 trillion dollars) at the end of Monday's trading against 71 trillion rupees (1.93 trillion dollars) before bourses began business last week on January 14.

The 30-share barometer Sensex tumbled 2,029.05 points to 15,576.30 within minutes of start of trading Tuesday. Monday it lost 1,408 to 17,605.35 points on concerns regarding the US economy going into recession.

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Monday said he was confident the local stock market would grow in an orderly manner despite a vicious sell off on Monday.
"Let me say orderly growth of the capital market is a priority concern for our government," said Singh.
A sharp fall in the Indian stock market on Monday was triggered by uncertainties in the global economy and was in no way related to any change in India's economic fundamentals, a statement of the government said.

"The fundamentals in the domestic economy are quite strong. Today's market fall reflects the continuing uncertainties in the global economy and not any change in the fundamentals of the Indian economy," the government said in the statement.
