US Politics: Elect a President please
I have been reading a lot about the US Elections and about how Donald Trump is blowing his own trumpet to woo voters in his favor. That said, the method he has used sometimes are downright cheap and not fitting for someone who is contesting for the post of President of United States of America.…
Religious Clashes – Why do we need them at first place?

A Noble prize for Filth
Well, this isnt what the Noble prize committee saying… but our own Environment Minister Mr. Jairam Ramesh’s words.

Why Voting is compulsary, and why not?
Sm has some good reasons why Voting in Elections should be compulsary. I agree with all his points except that Voting should be Compulsary. http://realityviews.blogspot.com/2009/03/india-reasons-why-we-need-compulsory.html I think it is a very debateable topic. Sm has mentioned what is a reality. I believe that all these can be followed without compulsary elections. The root issue remains that…
