Nine months ago a brutal incident stunned whole India. A 23 year old lady was rapped, beaten, molested and thrown down on traffic moving road in severely injured condition. She struggled for 14 days,on bed, and succumbs to her injuries at Singapore hospital.
Nine months after this incident, today, the special court announced death penalty for all 4 accused. Well, this may be a good move from Indian govt. but the only question which is arising in my mind now is, "Will it bring her back??". We know, we can't.! "Her" here refers not only to Nirbhaya, but all those several unfortunate girls who has been victim of this kind of brutality...!! Punishing all these demons will not set everything straight, will not bring back what we have lost, but will it at least stop this things from happening in the future? Will women in our country be safe after this? We don't have answer for this..
These convicts who are now sentenced to death will never feel the pain Nirbhaya felt for 14 long days, physically and mentally..! Hanging them would be a sweetest way of killing them...!! Personally I feel that they should be punished more severely.. U might ask, what is more severe than killing? Yea, U are right, killing them will be the final and the highest punishment they could be given. They deserve it too..! but there are several ways in which it can be done.. I am not being bloodthirsty, but they should be killed in such a manner that it sets an example for what happens when someone rapes a girls in India..!
Even then we cant bring what we have lost but at least we can ensure we won't lose anything in the future...

It is 14th November, whole India is celebrating Children's Day. This year Indians might be bit busy with Diwali, but still the essence of Children's Day can be felt in mobile messages, Fb wall posts and in news papers. And this day reminds us of only one person. Many of us only know him as the first prime minister of India, great leader of congress and one of the greatest personality in the history of Hindustan. That is not our fault, because our text books speaks so. We are always fed with good things, the negative side is always UN-highlighted.
Yes,I 'm speaking about Pt. Jawahar lal Nehru. I think November 14th is the only day we remember him in a year. Not because it is his birthday but it is Children's day. It seems that Nehru might have thought Indians won't celebrate his birthday after his death. So, he might have called it as Children's day:-P
These many days we only knew him to be a good guy. But today, lets concentrate only on his negative side. If you hate him, then I 'll give you some good reasons to hate him more by your heart.
Jawaharlal Nehru: Partition supporter ?
Jawaharlal Nehru was not supporting
Mahatma Gandhi whole heartedly in the protest against partition of India.
He was doing this to gain political advantage over Sardar Ballavbhai Patel so that he can become the prime Minister of India after independence. His political greed was so high that later he started to blackmail Gaandhiji that if he is not made the prime minister of independent India then He will divide Congress. But if Congress got divided, then it won’t be possible to get independence. Hence Gandhiji requested Sardar Ballavbhai Patel to step aside and let Nehru be the prime minister even though Patelji won by absolute majority in the voting within congress to decide who will be the prime minister.
Well, this is the reason why he was our so called first Prime minister..!!! Nehru’s stand on Indo China relationship:
In indo china war, India’s situation might have not been so poor if Nehru had taken the issue seriously. Civilian from the state of Arunachal Pradesh fought with Chinese Army. At the time when Indian army was about to accept defeat, and the states of Arunachal Pradesh and Assam were in the verge of being a part of China, Nehru just set back and watched like a silent spectator. He just commented with crocodile
tears – “sorry Assam”. Everything was in his hand, but he did nothing. Later in parliament when the question regarding his stand about china war was raised, he answered that the part of Arunachal, which was taken by China was of no use and not a single grass can survive at that place. The opponent leaders replied, “Even your head don’t have a single hair, why don’t you give it to china? It is well understood that Jawaharlal Nehru was a person who always wanted to be in comfort zone and never step out of it and face the reality of the problems.
He was an escapist who liked to maintain status quo on the crucial issues rather than to delve deep into the problem and solve it from the root. The great quote “hindi chini bhai bhai” was spread by Jawaharlal Nehru just after Chinese aggression.
If he was such a real patriot he would have never let chinese into our border. The book named "The Himalayan Blunder"(must read book) written by brigediar Jhon P Dalavi speaks about all the blunders of nehru ji during indo-china war. Jawaharlal Nehru : his anti Assam Policies :
After partition, a part of Bengal(known as East Bengal at that time) was freed from India and declared as provincial state of Pakistan. It was then known as East Pakistan. East Pakistan fought for independence and in 1971 East Pakistan was declared as an independent nation and is known as Bangladesh since then. India helped Bangladesh won its independence and since Bangladesh’s economic and social scenario was not so healthy at that time, it was India’s moral responsibility to help Bangladesh in that front. At that time it was decided by Jawaharlal Nehru that some portion of Bangladeshi population will be allowed to come to India as “Federal Refugee”. Here food shelter and good education will be provided to them by Indian Government so that they can go back and change the social scenario of Bangladesh. But there was no law, or parliamentary bill passed in support of this. This was decided by Jawaharlal Nehru only by his whims and wills.
On 7 th May 1949, Assam’s first Chief Minister Gopinath Bordoloi wrote a letter to Jawaharlal Nehru highlighting the illegal influx issue and requesting him to take necessary action. Bordoloi also requested that if not possible to deport, then at least to distribute the additional load of population among various states equally. In this letter Gopinath Bordoloi pointed out that approximately 2.5 Lakh “East Pakistani”s have already come to Assam. As a reply to this letter, on 18 th May 1949, Jawaharlal Nehru wrote a letter to Gopinath Bordoloi stating that the population cannot be divided among other states and has to be absorbed by Assam only!!!!
So from the above sequence of activities it is very clear that Nehru
was a person who used to run national policies as his personal policies. Frame law as per his whims and wills.
Because of his foolish and immature activities, the north eastern states specially Assam and Arunachal had to suffer a lot. His way of working had become the way of working for the whole congress party which is the ruling party for most of the time in center since independence. His philosophy had become the philosophy for the congress party which is the ruling party for most of the time at Assam. As a result of the post independence movement at Assam, the Assam Accord was signed. But the illegal immigrant identification and deportation clause of the accord have not yet been implemented by the center.
All this sequences makes us rethink about his actions during the independence movement. Was he
really a patriot or whatever he did during the movement were just public image building activities, so that he can become the Prime Minister of independent India?
The days of independence and formation of new independent republic of India were the days when our national leaders were bestowed upon with massive responsibilities of formation of new government, constitution, law and order etc. Our national leaders at that time had very well performed with their responsibilities. But it seems surprising to know that, JawaharlalNehru get time and space to fall in love with Lady Mountbatten (Wife of Lord Mountbatten; last viceroy of British ruled India) during those crucial days.
Pamela Mountbatten; the younger daughter of Mountbatten couple and also Lord Mountbatten himself, have written about the relationship between Jawaharlal Nehru and Edwina(Lady Mountbatten) in various letters and other writings during 1947-’48. The same had been evident from various family album and diary entries of Mountbatten family. Pamela Mountbatten also refers to a letter written by Jawaharlal Nehru to Lady Edwina Mountbatten in 1957, “Suddenly I realised (and perhaps you also did) that there was a deeper attachment between us, that some uncontrollable force, of which I was dimly aware, drew us to one another, I was overwhelmed and at the same time exhilarated by this new discovery. We talked more intimately as if some veil had been removed and we could look into each other's eyes without fear or embarrassment.” So, the Chinese aggression took place in 1962 and the timeline of the above quoted letter falls in 1957, just five years before Chinese aggression. The time when Chinese were preparing to attack India, our great prime minister was busy with lovemaking with someone else’s wife.
The timeline of written communication of Gopinath Bordoloi regarding illegal influx falls in 1949, and in 1948, Lord Mountbatten himself had mentioned about the relationship of Nehru and Edwina in his letter to his elder daughter. That means, the time when the soil of our motherland is being used as dustbin
by other nation to throw excess and useless population, our great prime minister was busy with lovemaking with a lady who is the wife of a federal official of the government which ruled our country for hundreds of years. Also, he suppresses the noble efforts made by others to eradicate the problem recall reply from Nehru to Gopinath Bordoloi.
And yet we call him PANDIT... CAHCHA.. We celebrate his birthday as Children's day. We are enough mature to distinguish between what is right and what is wrong. We have 364 other days in a year with 364 other reasons to celebrate children's day. Do you still think we should celebrate his birthday as Children's Day?? I Don't....
Virat Kohli,who is currently
India's most consistent cricketer, celebrates his 24th birthday today.
For Kohli, who is hailed as
the future captain of India, nothing short of a match-winning performance is
decent enough. With the ICC ODI player of the year in his bag and his recent
form scripting scintillating wins for India, has become a job description that
he can proudly highlight in his resume. And it has been a regular feature.
Virat Kohli was born on 5 November 1988
in Delhi to Prem and Saroj Kohli. He has an elder brother, Vikash, and an
elder sister, Bhavna. Virat attended school at Vishal Bharti and Savier
Convent. Virat's father, Prem, worked as a lawyer and died in December 2006.
This 24-year old cricketer
hogged the headlines when he went to play a Ranji match a day after his father
had passed away.
The Delhi boy announced himself as India's
gen-next, leading India to the under-19 World Cup in 2008 held in Malaysia. Batting at number 4, he scored 235 runs
in 6 matches at an average of 47, including a century against the West Indies
U-19s.
In his 14th one-dayer for
India, half of which he had played as a substitute, Virat fastracked his way to
his maiden 100. And his Delhi teammate acknowledged his achievement and gave
away his Man of the Match to him.
Very soon he has called up for world
cup squad and marked a debut hundred in world cup against Bangladesh.He is
the first Indian to achieve that honor.
In his three and half years
international career Virat achieved lots of milestones.He is the fastest
Indian cricketer to reach 1000 runs in ODI. In
2011, he was the highest run getter in ODIs, and this year too he's just 5 runs
behind Kumar Sangakkara, the leading run getter.So far he has scored 13
centuries and 12 of them have resulted in India's win and moreover he is the
quickest to score 13 centuries in just 86 matches.
After the World Cup win,
when Nasser Hussain asked him why he and his teammates carried Sachin Tendulkar
on their shoulders, Virat replied: "He has carried us the nation's burden
on our shoulders for 21 years. It's time we carried him on our shoulder."
#respect
Despite being a regular in
the ODI side, Kohli only played his first Test in 2011 against West Indies in Kingston. But on
the disastrous 2011/12 India tour of Australia, in which India's senior batsmen
struggled throughout, Kohli stood out, scoring his first Test hundred in
Adelaide.
Virat Kholi is
quite aggressive in the field, He is one of the Stylish person in the
Indian Cricket team.Kohli must endeavour to grow at a similar pace as he moves
into a new year. One can only imagine the heights he would scale if he
maintains the flow.
The Apple iPhone 5 is finally here, with the latest arrival boasting a 16:9, 4-inch screen, new smaller port, thinner, lighter design and 4G LTE.
Last year's iPhone 4S always felt like an incremental upgrade rather than a true step change, and although it sold wonderfully for Apple and brought some interesting additions, few would argue against the suggestion that it opened the door for competitors.
As a result, this year's launch was perhaps most important for Apple since the very first iPhone arrived back in 2007.
For anyone following the iPhone 5 rumours over the past year, the iPhone 5 will not bring any major surprises, with many of the new features expected – including the new dimensions and the improved A6 chip.
The iPhone 5's camera is smaller, hardier and enhanced by the more powerful chip, and the front-facing camera is bumped up to a 720p version. Wi-Fi is improved and the inclusion of 4G is a must have in the current phone world.
But it is the size, design and shape that will win the most admiring glances. The all glass and aluminium chassis can claim to be the thinnest smartphone, at 7.6mm 'thin'.
The 4-inch screen keeps the retina resolution despite the added length, which Apple has brought in to make the iPhone 5 more movie-friendly.
The added real-estate is welcome, especially given the growth of its rivals, and apps will apparently be easy to move onto the new screen size for developers.
In the hand the Apple iPhone 5 certainly feels comfortable. You can see why Apple decided to keep the width the same, since it fits the hand nicely – just as its predecessors have.
iPhone 5 vs iPhone 4S
The most relevant comparison for many is with its predecessor the iPhone 4S and, for those on the now common two year contracts, the iPhone 4.
The new phone certainly feels different – and although there will be the odd naysayer, the overwhelming majority will feel that the iPhone 5's design is a good step on from the now ageing chassis of both the 4S and 4.
The move away from glass is a welcome one, and the aluminium manages to bring a premium feel in a notable lighter device.
A new chip definitely brings a snappier feel. Many people with an iPhone 4 will be all too used to the lagginess when trying to do anything even slightly complex with the devices, and the Apple iPhone 5 manages to take things on as far as you would expect in more than two years.
What is perhaps more suprising is just how much snappier this feels than the iPhone 4S. The A6 chip clearly has a significant amount more grunt under its smaller hood – but what is surprising is that you can immediately tell when you use the device alongside its predecessor.
Practically speaking, this probably isn't enough to make you want to leave a 4S unless you are a hardcore fan, but it will convince many iPhone 4 users to stick with the Apple ecosystem for another generation – and you get the impression that this is goal number one for the company.
The added length could have made the phone unwieldy, but the loss of thickness ensures that it maintains its balance and premium feel.
Those people who have got used to the iPhone 4 and 4S will certainly notice the difference that the new iPhone 5 design brings. It served to make the device feel more modern, and the materials used keep that premium feel that Apple has put so much stock in.
Thinner, lighter and more screen were always on the cards, and the fans' desires are understandable.
The aluminium backplate feels lovely – just textured enough to feel very different from its predecessors and, to our taste, preferable to the glass.
The iPhone 5 screen is bright and colourful, although it's difficult to truly appreciate the small upgrade that Apple has made in the bright lights of the show room.
The camera is also more difficult to test properly, but it certainly seemed faster to take a photo, something that can be a frustration on older iPhones.
From a software perspective, iOS 6 brings with it a wealth of new features that will certainly make a major difference to not only the way the iPhone 5 feels, but also its predecessors the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S when they get the updated software.
Maps, for instance, is significantly altered after Apple ended its longstanding agreement to use Google Maps and pushed forward with its own offering, in conjunction with sat nav giant TomTom.
The new maps certainly look the part, with some beautiful 3D renders and snazzy looking new vector graphics. We really want to take some time to tell you just how well the new offering performs in the wild, when we get a handset in for our full iPhone 5 review, coming soon.
The showcased flyover mode was great for the riverside of London, but as you would expect fell flat pretty quickly once you left the tourist districts and got to residential areas.
Early indications elsewhere are good, however, as the 'Apple designed' tag is pushed to the fore. The tilt and rotate view functionality looks gorgeous, and the turn-by-turn navigation is likely to attract plaudits with a simple and intuitive interface.
Siri has been given a major, and frankly much-needed, overhaul with the voice 'companion' functionality extended into new languages and new territories in an attempt to turn the iPhone 4S's overhyped and under-featured personal assistant up to a useful level.
It coped better with the noise of the press room than its predecessor – presumably due to the new microphone set up in the new iPhone 5, and could answer the two or three stock questions we asked it.
Given the obsession with Facebook, the need for better integration was a key addition for Apple in its latest operating system, and the iPhone 5 and its older brothers will benefit from a major overhaul of the way in which the social network links up with your handset.
The Facebook (and Twitter) functionality feels much more central to the experience this time around, and having the ability to post from the notifications screen feels like an obvious inclusion that works well.
Early verdict
Given the level of hype around the Apple iPhone 5, it's almost inevitable that phone itself ends up feeling a little underwhelming when it is launched, but Apple is a past master at ticking the boxes, and giving its growing legion of fans enough to justify an upgrade.
Is it going to sell like hot-cakes? Of course. Will it send shockwaves shuddering through the tech world and turn competitors back to their drawing boards? No.
Not having NFC is a real misstep, as it would have made the Passbookapplication in iOS 6 much better (and in keeping with its Android and Windows Phone rivals) and it certainly would have been nice to see something remarkable in addition to some nice, but not startling, upgrades.
But, in truth, Apple will be well aware that it doesn't need to reinvent the wheel to succeed and, in this case, it has yet again provided a fine phone that will keep it battling at the top of the charts for another year.

The phone is priced at $199 for 16GB, $299 for 32GB, $399 for 64GB in US. iPhone 5 price in India is not available yet..
