A 'Lovli' Journey through the Latest sensation readings in town..:

Chetan Bhagat...ever heard of him? This young writer has become a kinda inspiration to youngsters of his class, by giving his nation a beautiful and lovli book on the story of three friends from the moment they join IIT till they come out.
It’s about how they become under- performers and then how they land into trouble after troubles. It’s not all funny. Chetan has put some insights into the high level of pressure in professional colleges and how it affects the students.
There is some romance and the usual boy Vs girl observations. It is a lovli one….now, he has come out with a second…this time on a totally pressing problem or curse or boon or …whatever you may call it….. “A Night at the Call Center”.

A Night at a Call Center…What is it all about?

Now this latest phenomenon of Bhagat's, is out on sale, and this one, I should admit, was suggested to me by my friend Premjith, a book-aholic hinmself,(an Eco maniac) (il ya bibliophile), and out we rushed to Higginbotham’s, (the best bet for teachers like us, (just for the discount they give), and went for the kill.
Chetan's new book `One night@call center’ is about the most prominent phenomenon of our times: OUTSOURCING. Chetan Bhagat youthfully goes about exploring the fun as well as the dark side of working at a call center in India.
It is a fictional account of a night in the life of five youngsters employed at a call center. This is a must read for youngsters who visualize a future in call centers and BPOs. Do read it and post your comments on it…sooooon, we shall have a rendezvous for discussing this ‘phenomenon’. Wish you a Happy Reading…!

"Freedom and Licence" - Jawaharlal Nehru

Introduction:

“Freedom and Licence” is a speech given by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru at the All India Newspaper Editors’ Conference, in New Delhi on December 3, 1950. In this speech, the former Prime Minister of India puts forth the role and responsibility of the Press in a democratic nation like India.

Role of the Press in a Democracy:

The press performs a very essential function in our lives today, especially in the life of democratic countries. In other countries, it is performed under authoritarian direction. We take pride in our independence. But independence carries enormous responsibilities such as that of defending that independence when it is attacked, not only from external attack, but also from internal weakening and to maintain the inner strength, the morale and the self-confidence of a nation.

Different Kinds of Newspapers in India:

Newspapers are of course, of all kinds, and in India there are thousands of them. There are responsible newspapers; there are newspapers which are sometimes responsible, sometimes not; there are newspapers which are more irresponsible than responsible; and there are some sheets which excel only in flights of imagination and other acts of irresponsibility.

Right Way to Punish Evil in the Press:

In olden days, it was the function of the government to suppress the newspapers that had an evil tendency, in the opinion of the government. But, one cannot cure the evil by suppressing it. But the evil has to be checked; for it may grow and become dangerous to public welfare. Obviously the right way is for an organisation like the All India Newspaper Editors’ Conference to interest itself in forming a strong body of opinion among those responsible for the newspapers, that any backslider can be pulled up; or, it can  be made known to the public that the person concerned is a backslider and is not acting rightly.

Power and Responsibility of the Press:

"The World Community" - Dr. S. Radhakrishnan

Introduction

“The World Community” by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan is a plea to the great powers of the world to unite under a single umbrella, namely, a world federal government. To achieve this, he enumerates on the dangers posed by nuclear weapons and wars. According to him, world peace is not a dream in a shrinking world. It is a necessity, an essential condition for the survival of the human race. For this, a world federal government is the way out; with powers limited to establishing and maintaining law and order among the nations of the world.

Wars – An Illegitimate Instrument of Politics

In World War I, of the ten million people who were killed, 95 per cent were soldiers and five per cent were civilians. In World War II, of the fifty million people who were killed, 52 per cent were soldiers and 48 per cent were civilians. In the Korean War, of the nine million killed, 84 per cent were civilians and 16 per cent soldiers. Thus, war has degenerated into mass murder of the defenceless, women and children. It has become an illegitimate instrument of politics.

Dangers Posed by Nuclear Weapons

Nuclear developments have given enough power to the great countries to annihilate the human race many times over. Politicians have become indifferent to this growing danger. The apathy and indifference among the masses have resulted in a creeping paralysis of the people. The building of nuclear armaments means, the destruction of cities, the ruin of countries, the suffering of millions of human beings and the demoralisation of the world. There is no protection from nuclear weapons through shelters or emergency regulations.

Alternatives for the Military Methods

In a world, where peace is becoming more and more precarious, the great powers have a special responsibility. William James in a famous essay on “The Moral Equivalent of War” proposed a ‘substitute for war’s disciplinary functions’. It is necessary that we devise alternatives for the military methods. Issues which were hitherto decided through wars should hereafter be decided by peaceful means. In political life, we cannot exclude conflicts altogether.
