Why study Economics

Economics is a social science as we know, however recently it has shown trades of a full fledged mathematical Science. Economics does not has a formally acccepted definition, probably this separates it from other sciences. The recent use of analytical and statistical methods in economics have improved the policy making and its analysis, this inadvertently has helped economics to grow as a science. Traditionally economics is divided in two major sections, one is microeconomics and second is macroeconomics. Microeconomics looks economics from the individualistic perspective like a firm, product, market, etc. It gives models which helps economists to understand how market works and how it can made more efficient so that leakages can be reduced. Its one more purpose is to understand how individuals behaves if they are offered similar products and how their choices very. Macroeconomics looks at overall economics of a nation or a community, it understands how decisions made by group of ...

Writing Randomly

There are so many events happening across the horizon , and looking at them make me feel an urge to write, to write something that starts with anything and ends at anything. something which should touch all such events, something which can be there at the centre of my articles. Well for a start it's definately politics that come to mind and I must say that Indian politics is changing for good, talking of good I do feel that the fall in GDP growth recently is not good for the current government, this has the potential to undermine the great indian talent which remind me of a recent report by an organisation which claims that most Indians can't code. Code is a passion which I had when I was graduating but post that lost it to the industrial environment which seems to be in constant recession since then. There is a lot in recession because it tries to settle down the dust which was flying during last run of the economy, but now it's seems that world is waiting for its next ru...

India - Mauryan Empire

India As a series of Article   Article II – Mauryan Empire                                                  Last article summarised the great intellectual millennium that started with the arrival of Aryans and Sanskrit. However, this article focussed on the first great empire of India and making of India as we know it today. In 322 BC, Chandragupta Maurya, aged 20, forced the current Nanda ruler, Dhana Nanda to resign and took over the control of Nanda dynasty and established the Mauryan dynasty. The Victory of Chandragupta mainly belongs to Chanakya, the clever advisor he had. Dhana Nanda was not popular among the peasant, he was despot and corrupt and public loathe him. His problems were compounded when foreign invasion by Alexander the Great happened. Chanakya took advantage of the situation and sided with Alexander and won some parts of Sind...

India of Time of Harappan Civilisation

India as a series of articles Article I - India of Time of Harappan Civilisation I just finished reading Discovery of India , written by our beloved and first Honourable Prime Minister of Republic of India, Jawaharlal Nehru . The book shows his passion for India. He discovered its richness from ancient Harappan Civilisation to intellectually struggling medieval age and, in detail, to England’s enslaved India. The book begins with ancient India, mainly Harappan Civilisation. It mentions all the available information about the civilisation at the time beautifully wrapped in author’s Indian pride, who thinks that English gave us this opportunity to understand our past and also responsible for the slower growth in its glorious unearthing. Harappan Civilisation is the place where our ancestors saw the seed of our culture, one that can still be felt in contemporary times like worshipping of Lord Shiva and goddess deities. Harappan civilisation was mainly an agrarian society ha...

For drafting an ideal Lokpal Bill

  In this article author tries to explore the possibilities of lokpal bill and an ideal lokpal bill that will remove the corruption as he personally believes that making higher authority accountable sends the signal down the hierarchy to be accountable and this will eventually reduce the corruption and so he suggests to add PMO and CJI under the purview of the lokpal bill. He at many places supported his view by citing examples from many failures of such kind of acts/ commissions/ movements which he accused lack of political will to carry out laws to end corruption. Author mentioned about CVC and its failures. Right CVC has been not so successful in spite of having a vary rigorous procedure for its selection. The reason is simple CVC is not selected by the house however by the 3 people namely PM, HM and Leader of Opposition in this unbalanced situation this is highly likely that PM and HM will agree and the CVC will be elected by the wish of ruling party. However if the method ...

Peace ...

I am writing this article on a topic which is much bigger and wide than my whole of the knowledge, you can say that I decided to begin my journey but haven't took a step yet. Peace is something which had disturbed mankind in its history more than anything else, but war. Whereas war disturbed both physically and mentally peace disturbed mentally only. Are you finding it difficult to accept? I must say I found it equally amazing when I saw it from this point of view. You can say I looked at it from the emptier side, not from the side which is already full of many thoughts. I am just experimenting that how many people will stand with me on this thought. I think one should look from this point of view also. Every year governments around the world spend billions of dollars on peace keeping activites, they say this increases the life expectency and reduces blood-shed that happens in war. I agree competely with later but I doubt the former, its true that peace keeping activites help gover...

My vision of an ideal world order

  In physics questions we generally have to assume the ideal situation. This is because the reality is very difficult to explain on paper in form of mathematical equations.  But, if one look in the real world the situation is widely different. Its quite easier to explain the real world as it is and its almost impossible to see the world in ideal state. But what is ideal world? This question has different answer for everyone. Moreover, ideal world will change as the circumstances for someone changes. A person will see the ideal world as mainly the solution of the major problem he/she has. Ideal world is a personal for someone as it exists only in dreams not reality.   In my dreams, world is not Ram Rajya, as it is not possible today. In my ideal world I see the world completely differently as what it is. I think that all the nations in the world should commune to answer future questions. There should be a governing body at the global level which should see all intern...

There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so

  Most of us perceive things around us by putting it in two categories, either good or bad. What if one says that it is a bad habit! Everybody would be shocked, this is because this art of division is so much our part that we don’t even feel that there is nothing like universal good or universal bad. Certain things which are worst for one could be best for someone else and if such a difference is created than this may result in a dislike between the two persons. So for everyone it is important to understand that good or bad division is the perception of the person its not the full person.   Person’s thinking is highly influenced from the environment it put up from and it like to see the things from goggles they put on when they were child. Everybody is very reluctant to change and generally people force things to stay same around them. This could be because humans wants peace and stability around them and they think that change with itself brings uncertainty, thus destro...

Spirituality and Scientific temper

  Science is often accused of working against religion, this perception in common men’s mind is formed because of the basic definition of science which require experimental proof to believe on for any existence. This is completely against spirituals which moves by peace of mind rather than the existent of the fact. If the two things are contradictory than famous scientist Albert Einstein would have never said that, God can’t play dice with the universe. Most of the scientist, like him, blindly believe on the God and for all, God is the entity who cannot be seen or perceived it can only  felt in mind and heart, as Lord Krishna said in Geeta “I exist inside everyone, look for me inside you only.” Lord Krishna also emphasizes the fact of science and said science is equally important as religion for the development of humans and one should move towards either science or enlightenment. However, people took only the first idea and almost forgotten the later till the time world see...

Philosophy

  Philosophy is the major and most difficult branch of science, also father of all sciences. It is also known as meta physics just to emphasize this fact. It is generally said that philosophical problems are unsolved because if any problem, if solved, is no more philosophical. History of philosophy is very long, not as long as humans. It was Greeks who went farthest in the domain followed by Romans, this is because they have democracy and quite stable government this makes people to think beyond the seeable.  Current philosophy is quite different and generally employed by industries for the higher productivity. However, in the history it was invented to solve many problems, who still hold the center of human development but most think that they are NP hard and irrelevant to answer, however even other problems are hard and quite interesting.   History of humans do have a lot of philosophy involved seeing it one can say that human mind, if made to think beyond seeable...

Freedom @ TCS ILP

  For last four weeks I am at TCS ILP in Noida only. TCS have outsourced this facility to Almamate and most of our needs are answered by this statement only. The experience till now is worst and everybody is thinking that they are teaching us to spend time on bench, a very common thing at TCS when they don’t have any project for an employee. Most of the classes here are self-learning and we are doing really good in it by learning new games and doing some new activities, but nothing had ever sufficed to pass the whole day.   Usually our day start by getting late by a few minutes and than we used to enchant guard to put our time under limits, however he never did this. Than we move on to our class however, our seats are always preoccupied and we behaves like khanabadosh to get some new seats, in my luck I always got the seat whose IP address is blocked and I go and ask for it to unblock, this really made me popular among the administrator department of Almamate, but this i...

Sachin, full in himself

Well I am writing this post in an answer of one of my friends who has written over whether Sachin should stay in team or not. I will suggest him to let Sachin decide what he wished to do and let him play cricket in his natural style and kindly not should not write post like this which completely criticizes some one. Well he wrote if India would have been Australia they have asked him to quit under this performance, I will ask, cant you see Ponting the captain of the team even when the team is performing its all time lowest, he is neither in good form nor is so many runs as he once used to be. And the second thing i will say is that in the whole history of Australian cricket there was not any cricketer equivalent to our little master so you can't predict what they would have done if Sachin would have been in their team. Next he criticized over the new comers, I will ask him in this case to go through statistics and pick any new comer and pick Sachin's runs from the day and then ...

Turmoil in BJP

Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) the second largest political party of the world's largest democracy facing the greatest crisis of its history. This is not only good for the party but also as predicted by other parties very frequently in last week that instability in the BJP is not good for the nation too. may be party facing its biggest crisis and it needs a very determined leader who should replace current president of the party, Rajnath Singh. Expulsion of senior party leader Jashwant Singh from party raises the crisis, many other senior leaders have also came out against the party making abrasive comments on the senior leaders. What is going on in the party is really a question in itself, does the party like BJP having millions of supporters, thousands of leaders goes through such kind of instability moments? Abortive results of the last Lok Sabha election may have shocked the BJP but this rebel from the senior most leaders of the party have made the party to take abstemious actions....
