What we have seen in the people's movement initiated by Anna Hajare and his colleagues is people's resentment against the ruling communities.The ruled are deeply frustrated with the ruling class. And this is happening across the globe in different forms. The govt. should understand what is written on the wall. Unless the people's grievances addressed well and addressed in time then the movement may withal but will not die out. Rather it may find another outlet which may not be healthy for the democracy. Now the M.Ps are claiming their suzerainty but what if they fail to introduce or enact any rules which will fulfill the hope and aspiration of the common people. Then people have to demand for the same. There is nothing wrong in it. Ultimately it depends on the good sense of the parliamentarians whether they are ready to concede to the people's demand or push the country to a state of anarchy. Now it seems that most of the parliamentarians started visualizing their relationship with the electors as that of Lords to their vassals. Some of them are behaving as the agents of the corporate houses. It is the capitalism and its paraphernalia which is responsible for all sorts of degradation. Now time has come to think out of the box. Whenever any new opinions grows there grows counter opinions. Michel Madhusudan Datta wrote 'Meghanadbad' which is contrary to the idea we find in the Ramayana but that does not nullify the importance of the Ramayana.

Sex education in India
There is something like the theory of naturalism in education. Also some other theories are there. I think in case of sex education we should follow the theory of naturalism. If we come out successful in moral education then evils sex can automatically be resisted.

Living beyond religion
It is often said that to mix religion is a narrow idea. But is it actually so? To me, it is a rather intellectual one. It is the intellect of those political leaders who want to be the ‘king’ in a democracy by spitting religious venom in the air. To the common people till today humanity is above all. Is it true to say that India was divided in 1947 on the basis of religion? No. It is rather true to say that Pakistan was created out of India. Of course on the basis of religion. Now the country seems to be ready for fragmentation on the basis of so many regional thinking. To withstand all these threats our political system need to work on truly secular basis. We can learn from the life of ‘Mahatma’ who, unlike Md. Jinnah, was a pious man in his personal life but truly secular in political life

Livining in a world of political animals
In the backdrop of the general election - 2009 theleaders belonging to the different political parties started to create great confussion over the common people. Everybody is trying to instigate people of their sect or trying to create sentiment. It is shame that they are trying to get elected in the parliament, the highest law making body, when some of them even resorted to purchase a ticket. Some are raising religious issues, some others are raising regional issues. Everybody is trying to be the PM even at the cost of national integration. Some are telling that the Marathas want a Maratha PM, Some one telling that a 'Dalit' should be the PM. It seems that there is no apex body to control these political animals from spitting venoms.
