Sachin The "Legend" not only in Cricket, also in Social Life..!



As we all know recent achievement of maestro.Complitied 50th test century against South Africa in centurion. This pave him way to be first Indian completing 50 centuries in test carrier.

Yet there is another incident which proved him recently that he is “Hero not only in cricket life but also in social life too”    

                                         Sachin Straight Drive


As sachin use to  hit six by straight drive to the pavilion, same as, recently, Liquor Brand came forward to offer him 20 crore annually to become its brand ambassador,He just hits back (“Refused the offer”)  on social concern.

Sachin principle is not to endorse product like Alochol and Tobacco which is harmful to one ‘s health.

Experts in the commercial endorsement business say it would have been the highest-ever deal for an Indian sportsperson had it been clinched. And this is a one-year contract, was much higher than what Mahindra Singh Dhoni recently signed for a three-year deal with Vijay Mallya's UB Group, which is worth Rs 26 crores.But “sachin have been offered 20 crore annually”.

A spokesperson from World Sports Group  (WSG) who look after his endorsements confirmed the offer but said they cannot give details of the deal offered.


                                         Sachin Century (100)




It does not mean sachin can score centuries only in cricket but also in personal life as well. That’s by recent example we seen now, “Not to endorse product like Alochol,Tobaco”.Moreover, Sachin Tendulkar who has been the brand of many products/services is purely because of his personal attributes. Throughout his career he has always endorsed those products/services which have been beneficial for the people and also which were in the public interest. 

Anyways, money can never lure Tendulkar and this offer is a classic example of how he belives in his principles and society"

Hats off to him, of his concern on the Society and people welfare.

Ragging in Indian colleges



Ragging in Indian colleges is still a brutal reality despite all the claims and rules made by the Indian Government. Every year when kids pass out from schools, they look forward to their college life. A time when they are stepping into adulthood, learning to be responisble citizens, and enjoying the freedom to take their own decisions.


                                               Seniors think it's Fun..!





On the other end, senior students plan to get friendly with freshers  and come up with new ideas to rag them. Socializing with seniors is the biggest fear in the mind of freshers, mainly because of the numerous horrific tales of ragging they have heard in the past.


Many seniors feel that ragging is just an informal way to break the ice between them and the new batch. But they overlook the negative impacts caused by it. Ragging in India's college hostels takes the form of sexual abuse causing physical and mental torture to the juniors. 

                                  
                                             Different forms of ragging

   
 Making them dance                       Making them proposing a girl 
                                   
         
Ragging is done in many forms, starting with orders to dance or sing, and proposing to a girl or performing explicit sexual acts. In hostels, ragging takes on a harsh and humiliating form causing physical and mental pain.  The type and level of ragging is almost the same for boys and girls staying in hostels. At times, students do not even complain about their suffering due to the fear of running into more trouble.

                                      Death by Ragging



Although College authorities always claim that they have strictly banned ragging in campuses, and if any case happens, freshers can always complain to the Dean or to the faculty. Government has also passed strict laws against practicing any form of ragging. But all that is in vain, ragging is very much in existence in India.

"Ragging does not teach freshers to be bold or smart, and is not helpful to build a strong character." It eventually end people to suicide due to ragging; have been reported from many Indian cities.
                                 

New Initiative of anti-ragging idea by Medical College student







Stanley Medical College in Chennai has come up with a new concept to curb ragging in their campus.

The student guardian concept - where every senior is given the responsibility to take care of a fresher. And that's why student’s new students are not scared of being ragged by their seniors anymore.

Really it is good initative by them.


                               
                               National Anti-Ragging Helpline

Sexual Harassment on Chennai buses

     
          
Here is some good news for women who undergoing harassment on MTC buses. The Chennai Police have joined hands with MTC to crack down on footboard romeos' and other tormentors of women. MTC has identified a list of seven bus routes, where trouble-makers are on the prowl. 

The routes identified are 33 (MKB Nagar to High Court), 45B (Anna Square to Guindy Industrial Estate), 47 (Adyar to Villivakkam) , 47 A (Besant Nagar to ICF), 29 C (Perambur to Besant Nagar), 27 D (Foreshore Estate to Villivakkam) and 27 H (Avadi to Triplicane).
 

Students of the SIET College for Women take 45B, while a large number of students of Stella Maris and MOP Vaishnav Colleges are dependent on 29C and 27D. "Harassment happens mostly on bus routes where women's colleges are located. Men get on these buses even though they may have to go elsewhere," said by MTC official.
 

"Men of all ages indulge in harassment of women. Some are teenagers, others elderly men.

                                           Women Opinion



Since such incidents happen in crowded buses, many women said that plying more buses on the identified routes would help. "Route 27H needs many more buses as hundreds of working women and college students take this route," said Priya, a college lecturer.  

Police Action


The police will deploy more personnel at bus stops on these routes, including personnel in plainclothes. "Once the MTC gives us details of the routes, we will deploy more personnel," said Shakeel Akhter, additional commissioner of police (law and order).
                            
                                               My Suggestion


My suggestion towards this harresment,during peak hours like college hours and official time as I mentioned above different routes where mostly women traveling.MTC buses would ply more “Women Special” Buses, so that Girls of different colleges and working women can travel alttogether on Women Special buses Safely to their homes.

 A five-storey residential building collapsed in Lalita Park in New Delhi's Laxmi Nagar area on Monday evening. Delhi's Health Minister Kiran Walia, who is at the spot, told NDTV that 28 people have died and 50 others are injured. 


Several people are feared trapped under the debris. Rescue operations are on and the injured have been shifted to Lal Bahadur Shastri and LNJP hospitals.


According to eyewitnesses, at least 400-500 people were staying in the building which collapsed at 7.30 pm. Their is no confirmation on how the building collapsed but according to locals, the basement of the building was filled with water and some construction work was going on which further weakened the base of the building.


Speaking to NDTV, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said, "30 to 40 people are yet to be rescued. I think this disaster happened because of the carelessness of the builder. I will order an inquiry into the incident."
Rescue work is going on and the people in the area have been assisting the police officials and the fire brigade.


So  this happened due to  promoter negalince , therefore this will be an example for other Builders and Promoters to take this issue seriously. because  you are not only building flats and making money out of this, moreover you deal with human life.


My condolence to people who died there.

Courage to Handle

Did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?
The eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it.


The eagle does not escape the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.


When the storms of life come upon us - and all of us will experience them - we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief toward God. The storms do not have to overcome us. We can allow God's power to lift us above them.


God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm.
Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them.
