Arjun Singh doesn’t have a clue to how to reform the higher education system!
Mr.Arjun Singh, the HRD minister, in his position for the second time. A two-term HRD minister must be seen as a man with a vision and a mission. The minister doesn’t display both these assets. All we can hope to remember about the minister is his penchant for playing his card as a pro-Marxist minister….
Indo-US nuclear deal would make India a stronger economic power!
Jyoti Basu’s stance is unpardonable! Jyoti Basu must put India’s supreme interests above party line! Even to be seen as Mr.Somnath Chatterjee is seen with a stoic silence after his return and consultation with Jyoti Basu, even for a day or two, seems to us, as unjustifiable.

Salute to Sam Bahadur!
Government of India must have conferred the Bharat Ratna Even on his deathbed, he deserved the highest honour! Sam Bahadur as he was lovingly and with much indulgence called by one and all is no more. Salute to his memory. He would be remembered for a long time to come. It is nice to remember…
Public Sector Banks ready with the debt waiver list!
PSBs badly managed! Inefficient, wasteful of customers’ time and resources! You can’t but revamp the co-operative credit institutions if you are serious about saving the farmers! Serving the farmers’ long-term interest! The Finance Minister must revamp a whole lot of banking and financial institutions! The debt waiver scheme is okey but not the end of…
