A small comparison between US and India

A small comparison between US and India:
Per Capita income: India Rs. 53331 US $ 41663 =Rs.2333128 (ratio: 1 : 44);
Oil consumption: Ind 2.409/1000 Barrel p.a. US 22.6/1000 barrel p.a. (ratio 1 : 10.8);
GDP growth: Ind 8.9% - US 2.2% (ratio 4:1);
Oil price in last 2 weeks: India increase 11%; US decreases 10% (fall out 19% higher in India);
Current oil price at pump: US Rs.54 per litre app – India Rs.76 per litre app. (40% higher in India);
How burdensome it is on a consumer to bleed out money thru his nose from his meager income level – the impact is equivalent as if the US consumer pays Rs.3300 per litre ( he pays only Rs.54) ; and, that is when our consumption is less than 10% from their; when our economy is growing at a 4 times faster rate than their.
Basic economic principle is when economy grows your currency strengthens – ours is going deepSouth (because some bank accounts in the West are ballooning).
“LOGICS – THOU ART ELUDING INDIAN ECONOMY”.
Govt. may give 999 reasons for this. The actual reason is ONE and ONLY ONE:

DO NOT VOTE !! - Section 49-0

DO NOT VOTE !!! - says who?? says Section 49-0 of "Conduct of Election Rules, 1961"...

Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as per the Section 49-O of the "Conduct of Election Rules, 1961", that a person can go to the polling booth, confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding election officer that he doesn't want to vote anyone!



Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly notorious leaders have never disclosed it. This is called "49-O".



Why should you go and say "I VOTE NOBODY"... Because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that particular ward has received "49-O" votes more than 123, then that polling will be cancelled and will have to be re-polled .



Not only that, but the candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on them .



This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way, of our whole political system... It is seemingly surprising why the election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public....




Please spread this news to as many as you know...... Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India... Show your power,expressing your desire not to vote for anybody, is even more powerful than voting... So don't miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info on...


I VOTE FOR NOBODY !!!

Indian Flag

"It will be necessary for us Indians -- Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jews, Parsis and all others to whom India is their home -- to recognise a common flag to live and die for."
-- Mohan Das Karamchand Gandhi's quote on our Indian flag
THE NATIONAL FLAG OF INDIA is in tricolour ( TIRANGA) of deep saffron (Kesari) at the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom in equal propotions.

The Indian flag is a horizontal tricolour in equal proportion of deep saffron on the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom. The ratio of the width to the length of the flag is two is to three. In the centre of the white band, there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law in the Sarnath Lion Capital. This center symbol or the 'CHAKRA', is a Buddhist symbol dating back to 200th century BC.

Its diameter approximates the width of the white band and it has 24 spokes, which intends to show that there is life in movement and death in stagnation. The saffron stands for courage, sacrifice and the spirit of renunciation; the white, for purity and truth; the green for faith and fertility.

The design of the National Flag of India was adopted by India's constituent assembly on 22nd july, 1947. It's use and display are regulated by a code.

The flag symbolizes freedom. The late Prime Minister Pandit Nehru called it a flag not only of freedom for ourselves, but a symbol of freedom for all people.

‘Gandhi fell in love with Tagore’s niece’

Mahatma Gandhi fell passionately in love with the beautiful Saraladevi Chaudhuri, a writer and niece of Rabindranath Tagore, at the age of 50. It threatened his family life and his work, his grandson writes in the recently published biography of the Father of the Nation.

Rajmohan Gandhi writes, “I wanted to capture the real man in my book, so I couldn’t leave out this episode of my grandfather’s life.”
According to a report in the Sunday Telegraph here, although Gandhi’s friendship with Saraladevi was known at the time, the full extent of his relationship with the writer three years his junior has not been revealed until now.
Gifted, well-informed and driven, Saraladevi was 29 when Gandhi first saw her, in 1901, conducting an orchestra as it played a song she had written for the Congress party.
But it was not until she was 47, and married to newspaper editor Rambhuj Dutt Chaudhuri, that Gandhi fell for her, while staying at their house in Lahore.
Chaudhuri was in jail for his part in the struggle against the British and soon after he arrived, Gandhi — by now dedicated to personal celibacy — wrote in a letter: “Saraladevi’s company is very endearing... She looks after me very well.”
Within months, he was thinking of their relationship in terms of a “spiritual marriage”, says his grandson, who admits he is unsure what his grandfather meant by this.

Cause of origin of pseudo-secularism in modern India, thanks to the famous Congress leader Indira Gandhi, who not only converted her religion, but also changed her last name...I guess its because 'Gandhi' was quite popular at that time
