Try and avoid encouraging bribery by not resorting to it under any circumstance for our personal needs, follow the rules and regulations strictly, teach our children to do similarly will go a long way in slowly curing this pernicious evil from our Society. I am following this personally and believe it or not when I go for any work with govt. I get the work done, though with some reluctance, by the employee! So stop cribbing and make a beginning!Saraswathanhttp://saraswathan.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-18508331507526936772009-08-11T15:40:02.611+05:302009-08-11T15:40:02.611+05:30hi,

She was on training in govt school, for her B.Ed. Did u know, students have to take turns to wash tiffin boxes of teachers, buy her grocies, stand in the ration for them. Boys attending 10th exam still dont know what a noun and verb is? She opted to stay away from govt school though she made alot of difference to many children.<br /><br />Its nice to fight for a cause, but no one wants to fight a losing battle.

I am a kind of feeling that people in india lost their humanity and going after money. <br /><br />I appreciate you wrote about this. I also heard you talking this kind of things on shows.

Until you have a sort of improvement in the economic status of the under privileged, this is going to exist. The economic divide will be there but the success lie in how less the divide could be made possible. Until then the strata of the society will demand more.

Self realisation is the best realisation to drive any change. wish atelast readers of this and ur blogs take a thread to be a change.to conclude this one is really best of ur blogs,keep up d gud work.Sathyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08706025598728545106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-4911209895454117492009-07-27T19:08:47.997+05:302009-07-27T19:08:47.997+05:30Chinmayi San...

Suprisingly, there isn't any teachers' strinking or students uprising to let the government know of its mistakes! In Toronto there has been teachers' strike every year except for this year- their reason, increase the salary.

T...well.. hmm, that was one helluva blog. LOADED !<br /><br />This is quite a debatable topic. Now, I lived in China for 2 years(just moved out), and anyting I say would be blaming our country(like you did)- which isn't wrong. The true concern of an Indian citizen is being voiced here.<br /><br />Now, all I would say is Viji aka Anonymous's message is the way to go ! Do your bit. Im in 2 groups tat have been makin quite an impact in bangalore.<br /><br />Talking of dal, prices, politics- well, everything revolves around the root cause - teh basic way our counry operates- which needs a cyclopean change, which aint happening anytime soon, not being pessimistic, being realistic.<br /><br />Clothes pouring in as relief is seen on Bangalore's roads (the best brands from all over the world), which helps wannabe Bangalore's college kids stay in vogue. Rice, dal, groceries coming in as relief is seen being sold in the "Chetty shop next door".<br /><br />Like u said, there needs to be a miracle.. and its a long time to get there.. but lets hope for the best. Influential people could definetly bring about changes unlike common man, and they should do it as a little social responsibility towards the community.<br /><br />have a nice one !<br />Shanker.Shanker Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16512422609322954452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-55069426493534047002009-07-24T19:20:33.404+05:302009-07-24T19:20:33.404+05:30Hi Chinmayi,

He used to sit and dictate the steps. Can a maths teacher sit and teach. Is that possible? They have to bring rule, teachers should use board and just shouldn't read from book, which we can do by ourself.<br /><br />May there are good teachers too. But how to find out the worst and handle them?Priya Srinivasannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-19320784814880539062009-07-24T17:38:52.447+05:302009-07-24T17:38:52.447+05:30Dear Chinmayi,

Welcome to globalisation.<br /><br />Humanity is becoming a short supply in India because of the near out of control level of population. Disciplinarian society like China can do but a freak out, highly inquisitive society like in India it is impossible. Science says more the number of variables, greater the chaos.
