EVERY GANG HAS A BACKING.

UNTOWARD ELEMENTS SURVIVE WITH POLITICAL OR OTHER BACKING.

When the going gets Tough,

The Tough gets going.

Every mischief has a strong backing.

A rogue finds strength and inspiration when he gets support.

They have a gang of loyal to carry out their instructions.

Blessed are loyal who have no talent.  They become good followers.

Among them the Law of Silence Omerta is important.

They are generally known by pet names like munna, bhai, kaka, munim etc.

If caught, they keep a tight upper lip. They deny, deny, deny with capital D.

These so called toughs are man made fellows.

They are the product of human weakness, and human goodness.

Society is involved in their own activity.

The average person has no time to challenge such untoward elements.

They have the backing of some politician or local police officer.

They are timid cowards.  They are very superstitious.

They are always scared and remain frightened every minute.

They know their end is tragic.  They know they will get caught.

But short term gain lures them to live thrilling and suspenseful life.

They play upon sentiments and emotion of the common man.

Sin has many tools and their life is full of lies.

In the process they forget what is real noble truthful life.

It is the job of local institutions to expose such untoward elements.

You pardon one offence and you encourage commission of many in thousands.

AGRICULTURAL REFORMS FOR MORE YIELD.

 REFORMS IN AGRICULTURE.

“When tillage begins, other arts follow.”

‘The farmers are the founders of human civilization.”

“Gentlemen Farmers, a race destined to rule the nation.”

Self sufficiency in Food Grains.

India is a land of agriculture.

India possessed largest agricultural land than any country in the world.

Agriculture is the backbone of our economy.  India gained its

independence in the year 1947.  Agriculture was in primitive stage.

The land was in the hands of  jagirdars and zamindars.

Land reforms were put into practice to make land available to all.

Agriculture was being done with help of bulls and limited means.

There was complete rationing of food grains.

After independence following historical changes took place.

Agriculture universities were established to give education to farmers.

Agronomy was given priority and agricultural aliveness was restored.

Modern equipments, tractors, agricultural machinery helped to increase food output.

Fertilizers plants were installed to raise land fertility. Water

Irrigation system and electric power increased the food grains output.

India adopted the norms of green revolution in the area of agriculture.

Concentration of seasonal crop and regular crop increased more output.

All waste land and surplus land was converted into agricultural land.

It was since 1970 that India became self sufficient in agriculture.

Today India is in a position to export high quality food grains.

Still the country lacks in modern means of farming and use of pesticides.

The country is lacking in infrastructure to store food grains.

Infrastructure to remove grains from field to storage place is wanting.

It is reported that every year, millions of tons of food grains is wasted

due to rot, putrefaction, menace of rats, birds.  Transportation system has to be improved.

Distribution channel is weak and needs complete overhaul.

There is a lot of waste in handling of food grains from and to destination.

Increased population has taken the tall of the country.

An awareness has to be created in the minds of people about importance of

agriculture and establishment of marketing yards in the country.

YOU DON'T WORK FOR MONEY. MONEY WILL WORK FOR YOU.

LET MONEY WORK FOR YOU.

 Sound Portfolio Management.

Cistern contains and a Fountain overflows.

It is not 2+2 = 4.  It is 2+2 = 22 business.

It is not the school and college education that counts in life.

In practical life something more than just grades is required.

It is your guts, insight, audacity bravado daring way that counts.

It is not important how much money you make in life.

It is important how much money you keep in your life.

We come across cases of stock market winners who were poor.

Suddenly stock market winners become rich, then poor again.

They win millions and were soon back to where they began.

If you want to be rich you should be financially literate.

You have to lay emphasis on the art of mastering financial literacy.

You have to have a solid foundation of financial insight into it.

One has to master the art to learn the intricacies of financial trend.

The words assets and liability makes sense only to an accountant.

Asset is your capital having commercial or exchange value.

Liability is the claim on your assets.

In actual life definition of asset is in numbers.

What defines an asset is not words but numbers.

If you cannot read the numbers, you cannot tell an asset.

It is called the need of learning the art of comprehension.

Therefore the successful ones acquire assets and we acquire liabilities.

Asset is something that puts money in my pocket.

Liability is something that takes money out of my pocket.

Therefore you have to master the art to buy asset and not liability

If you are having difficulty in your business, you are not reading numbers.

To be rich and to stay rich, you have to be financially literate in numbers.

You have to monitor the cash-flow like a flow of drinking water in a cistern.

Profit and loss measures income and expenses.

You do not work for money but money works for you.

THERE IS NO END TO TAX PAYMENTS.

Taxes.

There are two kind of taxes.

Taxes on men; Taxes on things.

1.Let us take taxes on men.

You are taxed when you earn.

You are taxed when you spend.

You are taxed when you save.

You are taxed when you die.

You are a lawyer, you pay income tax on your annual income.

You are a lawyer, you pay professional tax on your annual income.

Your company pays service tax on company’s annual income.

2. Let us take taxes on things.

You buy a bungalow you pay the regular tax on its value.

You buy a bungalow you pay property tax to the borough.

You consume electricity for the bungalow on that amount you pay tax.

You pay lawn mower to trim your lawn on that amount you pay tax.

You pay garbage man on that amount you pay tax.

In a multiple way you pay tax in respect of your bungalow.

Similarly you buy a car, you pay the regular tax on its value.

You pay for insurance charges on that amount you pay tax.

You pay for car-registration charges as tax every year.

You pay on your birth-day driving license renewal as tax.

You buy gas for your car on that amount you pay tax.

You pay tax on each and every item you buy.

Now you count how much amount of tax you pay.

Cascading effect.

I pay you a million.

You have to pay tax as it is your income.

You pay five parties 100 thousand each.  Each has to pay tax on it as it is his income.

Like that it is multiple Tax on the same amount.

RAJ NARAIN SINGH -SON OF INDIA.

Son of India. 

Raj Narain Singh holds the record of filing election candidacy against Nehru and

And Indira since 1952.  He was not successful.  This did not deterred him.

At Last, in the Year 1977 Raj Narain defeated the Iron Lady Indira and made History.

Raj Narain Singh,

      Lifetime.1917 to 1986.

      Education.    M.A.LL.B.

      His  achievement is that he defeated Smt. Indira Gandhi, the PM of India,

      in LokSabha election from Rai Bareili, in 1977.

      Raj Narain was an active member of the Socialist Party of India.

      Raj Narain holds a record number of going to jail.

      Raj Narain was jailed 80 times.

      Raj Narain spent 17 years in Jail out of his life of 69 years.

In 1977, during  Janta Government, Raj Narain was the Union Health Minister.

As  Health Minister he advocated short course,  medical education like

mobile compounders to ride on bikes with a medical kit box, equipment,

medicine for medical help to Indian rural villages for normal routine illness.

According to him, villages needed more compounders than doctors for first aid.

In serious matters, the compounder should refer the patients to hospital.

As Union Health Minister, he issued instructions that  Doctors, and all other

members associated with Medical profession shall not Smoke or Chew Pan etc.

He was a great Organiser and a freedom fighter.  The British announced a prize

of  INR. 5000, in 1942 to get him dead or alive.

Election and did sizable foot work in Uttar Pradesh, along with Amit Shah.

Cultural delegation to Nova Scotia Labrador and other eastern province of Canada.

METICULOUS HOMEWORK HELPS IN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION MATTERS.

METICULOUS LABOR FOOTWORK HELPS INVESTIGATION.

JUDGING THE INVESTIGATIONS.

The rich and the powerful can do anything.  

The inquiry right from the investigation stage to the verdict stage has to  be flawless. 

It gets tainted by time it reaches the hands of the judge.  

This can be done by strict supervision and scrutiny, and process of monitoring.

The process is exploited, facts are mis-recorded,  misinterpreted, twisted, and turned by the mighty and the rich with reference to politics related people. 

They exploit the system to serve their selfish ends.  In many cases it is seen that the law does not touch the wealthy and the mighty.   

They escape from the clutches of law. Pat is moving free. Salman is moving free. Sanjoobaba was moving free. ManuSharma can get parole. Law can not touch Asaram.Law cannot tough Thakeray.  Mukesh and Anil can hold in ransom countries natural resources.

The law enforcement and law administration are two wings. 

They have to work in harmony. They are complimentary to each other instead of finding faults with each other. 

The Courts have turned into helpless spectators of being witness to such frauds of justice.  This has turned out to be a day to day affair.  Faulty investigations, intimacy with the criminals, facilities to the criminals in jails are a routine matter.  In the Bombay jail, the criminal is attending a moojrah night at a reputed place.  In his place in the jail there is a dummy, duplicate fellow.  If there was a checking, everything would look in order as per the head-count.  They spend money like water. They get what they want.  This has to be stopped.

The above are a few isolated cases cited about the abuse of the process of the law.  The present arrangement is the only available workable and on the whole satisfactory system in existence.  With the coming of computers, it is hoped the method would still improve and not only justice will be done but  it will appear that justice is done.

OPIUM.

THE MENACE OF DRUGS-THE BLACK GOLD-THE OPIUM.

                      Opium the black gold.

              

                         As per  pages of history,  East India Company and the

                         Portuguese moved ship loads of opium for the last three centuries from the undivided India.,

                         They had an army of negotiators, procurers, transporters and landing agents through out the country.

                         

                          Portuguese had a Viceroy at Goa.  His job was to buy pay and arrange shipments.

                          Calcutta and  Goa buzzed with opium transport round the year.

                          It went to China via Singapore, Hong Kong and Macau.

                        

                         The poppy fields were spread over miles unto miles, on the outskirts of Mountain Heights of Afghanistan.

                        

                        It needs mastery in secreting sticky liquid from the fallen petal.  It was collected in earthen bowls. 

                       It was allowed to sun-dry. The moisture would dry out and it would turn out the black gold, the opium lump.

                       

                   Poppy plants were grown in the fields spread miles unto miles, extended to both side of the river. The old castle at the top of the hill  was a shelter for all, working in the fields in this region. There were hundreds of workers plucking the petal and incising them, as taught and trained.

                        This is the story prior to the reforms when the princely states were lords and masters in their respective states.

                        Princes inherited these fields from their ancestors. They used to grow poppy plants in the valleys behind the mountains extended to lush forests. From the sticky juice from poppy- petal came the substance with immense power to stimulate pleasure, cause numbness of the brain.  Use of opium was moving among the princely states like plague.

                  

                     The scene reflects life in undivided India in the early part of the eighteenth century. The people were moderately advanced in the stages of life. The kingly states lost their kingdom in pursuit of horse races, bullfights, keeping harems and consuming  opium. Since birth, the prince child was administered liquid opium.

                        By the time he turned an adult, he turned out a confirmed opium-eater, an addict. Taking opium was symbolic, a matter of pride. It was a status symbol to serve liquid opium in the courtroom to their office bearer and guests. It led them to their way to financial physical and mental ruin.  This craze was crazy enough for the innocent victim’s friends and families of opium consumers, crime victims and those who unknowingly became involved in it.  For ages nations have been consuming these items in different forms. It begins with a mild stimulant.  Thereafter the journey of its intake progresses to more serious stages. Ultimately it gets transformed into a killer-drug.

                        

DRASTIC MEASURES ARE WARRANTED WHEN COUNTRY HAS TURNED INTO LAWLESS JUNGLE.

THE COUNTRY HAS TURNED INTO LAWLESS JUNGLE.
DRASTIC MEASURES ARE NEEDED TO CURB ANTI-SOCIAL ELEMENTS.

 CAN MODY DO IT?

It is the dead End- and now is the Beginning.

Two world wars were fought in Europe.

Europe was the battle-ground for the first world war.

Europe was the central point of the second world war.

Now a stage has set that the third world war will be in Asia.

China has emerged as a major world player on the political arena.

CIA was ordered to divide India into fragments in 1971 by Nixon.

By creating Bangladesh, India has been a vital challenge to American interests.

Mrs.Gandhi touched and stirred hornet’s nest by inflaming super cop the USA. in 1971.

They used Pakistan as a stooge to destabilize India on all counts.

Indian diplomacy has not been effective since the year l989.

There has been no able government in power since 1989 to 2009.

For the last twenty years India had to compromise on all fronts.

The administration went to dogs. The army interests were shelved.

The kings lost their kingdoms but they have not forgotten their loss.

Their activities are to help elements engaged in destabilizing the country.

The country is in the grip of corrupts and rogues sitting in power.

They have cheated the taxpayers by scams and frauds to an unlimited extent.

Every politician has prospered at the expense of the country.

They have created class war, family war and divided the country into

minority and majority and secularity, ways to meet with their ends.

They have separated children from their parents.  Husband and wife

See each other from stand point of his and her rights in matrimony.

The civil service posts have been sold in exchange of favors and

other considerations to consolidate their position.  The result is that wrong

personnel are sitting on the right posts and right people are without posts.

Religion has been exploited to its maximum.  They have formed an elite group

Of their own which consists of religious heads, business men top officials.

Servants have turned into masters and masters have turned into servants.

Imposters are moving in religious fields and cheat the public in all types.

Money can buy everything.  Money makes the mare go.  With money they have controlled every wing of the society.

Population explosion has been out of control.

Every food item is adulterated.  There is nothing you can rely upon.

The administration has no grip.   The country is a lawless jungle with

unlawful elements having a heyday.  They have crippled the judiciary,

They want the judiciary to dance at their sweet will.

The Indian Army was considered impregnable.  Now it is not so.

Five top army officials are involved in land grabbing scam.

The flat-footed political leaders do not know the price of discipline.

They want the army to dance to their sweet will.  They want commission in every deal.

The country has turned out a termite-ridden log.

KNOWLEDGE OF FIRST AID HELPS.

IN EMERGENCY CIRCUMSTANCES WHAT WILL YOU DO ?

First Aid.

 What we anticipate, seldom occurs;

 What we least expected, generally happens.

Emergencies can happen any time.  It may be the house, the office or when we are in the car.  We hear of unfortunate stories of accidents which could have been prevented with

First Aid measures. If we know what we can do, it can save lives. Stay calm. Do not loose your patience.  What you need to know is easy safety tips, first aid, supplies and awareness till help comes. Some hints may help. They are as under.

12. Keep a first aid kit box in the house and one in the car.

2. Use First Aid and life saving techniques, and call emergency number.

Affix on the kit box important call numbers in an emergency.

Remember the four B’s. Breathing. Bleeding. Broken Bones and Burns.

3.  Make the home safe, against Carbon monoxide, gas leak and fire.

If there is heavy bleeding from wounds, stop bleeding. Call emergency van.

If there is head injuries, look for lump, wound, cut. pain or unconsciousness.

Do not remove objects like glass splinters nail etc from wound. Call medical help.

4.Food poisoning. Food quality, when in doubt, throw it out.

5.Electric injuries.  Make sure electric current is off before touching the victim.

6.Allergic reaction. Look for blisters, sneezing red face swelling of tongue ears face.

7.Fainting.  let him sit down head between the knees. Do not give any drink.

Poisoning.  Blood vomit. look for container, keep it. Call emergency. no time waste.

Disasters like flood fire earthquakes.  Choke out a basic line of action in your mind.

It is the job of the head of the family to have plan for eviction in such times.

     Give a thought in your mind how would you react in an emergency to save family.

      A thought in this direction will help you to save your family and you will not be taken   

      unawares.

A BEAUTIFUL MIND.

A BEAUTIFUL MIND.

A beautiful mind.

Clear thinking, unbiased, based on reason is necessary. No body does it. It can solve our day to day problems. Common sense can solve any complex problem. But nobody likes easy way.

A calm and cool mind can solve any difficult situation. You have to try it. It is an ill bird that betrays its nest.

There is nothing precious than Time. Time passed is life passed. People feel they have time with them.

Wasted hours days destroy your life just as surely at the beginning, as at the end.   At the end of the life, wasted hours become more obvious. You cannot do anything. No man lives so poor as he was born. It is true in some rare cases fortune appears to have favored the fools.  A sleeping cat catches no mice. Where there is a will, there is a way. Ups and downs come alternately. A good marksman may miss.  A good swimmer often drowns. A good cab-driver makes a folly. God helps those who help themselves. Among men and women, some are jewels; some are pebbles. Society represents good and bad elements. But in the end, the rogue is at last, at length out-rouged.  That is justice. Truth prevails. That is the Law of Almighty.

Try to analyze what you have just heard. Listening is an important aspect of life.  People have the habit to forget what they have listened taking it lightly. Do not make this mistake. These are facts of life; never take them lightly. This is the sum, substance of life.

Go on refreshing your memory whenever you are free. Do not allow your mind to rest. A good memory is an asset. You can memorize names, figures, and numbers, anything by constant practice.  

Some possess good memory for names. Some have good memory for numbers. Memory can be cultivated by efforts. You must know names of all your classmates. You meet him after thirty years you must call him by his first name.

You have to train your mind to remember names, details, and description, significant features of an individual etc. A successful executive has to practice lessons in committing names of fellow beings by heart. Without effort he should call him by his name. Half the battle is won. He is on your side.

You have to train your brain to commit to memory certain important factors. You have to continuously renew your lessons lest you might forget. Have no mercy on the brain. Keep it busy. Refresh it with new and new things. Learn and remember.  Do not allow the mind to be idle. Idle mind is Devil’s workshop. Put it to work. Any work. Ask the mind to recollect names of all your friends’ classmates’ right from childhood. Ask the mind the details of the last visitor in your office. What was he wearing? Describe him. Had he any special characteristics?

A good part of life comes from Money. Money is a good servant; a bad master. All want it. It is good when money works for you.  Money makes the mare go.  All sorts of crime are committed for money. Money game has made many mad.  Commercial adventure, dash and address are pre-requisites of a good businessman. Count like the Jews. Agree like brothers. Where two cats fight for the sweet, the monkey gulps it under the pretext of doing justice. It needs two for a quarrel. Friends are many when the purse is full. That which is written, is read.  Opt for an unjust peace than a just war.  Better bow than break. No flying without wings.

A good part of life comes from Power. Power is the crux; All run to the center of Power.   It is the biggest intoxicant. Power is a pretty toy. Power combined with a network of relations built over generations can achieve any impossible heights. Power is everything. No drug, cocaine morphine, alcohol spirit, matches the effect of power intoxication. Absolute Power corrupts. Excessive Power breeds contempt. Power can’t be given up.

A good part of life comes from willingness. You have to put life in what you have been doing. Mindless pursuit of an object yields no results.  Our mind is a muscle like any other muscles in the body. It can be trained taught worked upon charged recharged overcharged pressurized taxed burdened used reused overused in order to bring it to a level of perfection. Rigorous exercise to the mind has caused wonderful results.  Keep it engaged by constant supervision and monitoring what it is doing.

BODY WASH. JOURNEY FROM SOAP TO SHAMPOOS.

SOAP.  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

A good Soap is wonderful for Cleanliness. We can’t do without it. But misuse of soap is a sure way to ruin the skin.

Anything in Excess is Poison. Excessive use of Soap is like poison to the skin.

“Consumption of Soap is a measure of Health Wealth Civilization and Purity of their People.”                                                                              .

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is said Soap was invented in the end of the Nineteenth Century. Human life changed with it. Pears, Lux, Lifebouy, Mysore sandalwood were leading brands of Toilet soap.  Tata Swastik bar, 501 Soap bar, Sunlight was popular as Washing Soap.  Pears soap cakes were items of joy and luxury. Lifebouy was common man’s piece of soap to keep him hygienically clean. Soap was considered need of the day.

Invention of soap was termed as the Birth of Civilization in Western countries.

Our Country was already aware of soap qualities in plants and herbs to clean the skin. Before hundreds of years our forefathers  used various herbal products, oils fats and clay to clean the skin. The ladies used vegetable plant seeds as effective shampoo for hair care. Plant leaves were boiled in water and used.

The liquid was used as an effective detergent from hygienically point of view. Sandalwood paste was a good deodorant agent. Flower paste flower oil were available in abundance. Ayurveda texts mention sandalwood and Shikakai soap for skin and hair care made from sandalwood oil and other vegetable ingredients.

With the advent of soda ash, H-acid, acid slurry making units, detergent powder detergent cakes came into market. Shampoos shaving cream were classified under different chapter heading as they were not covered under the above definition of Soap. Scouring powder washing powder dish washing powder all sorts of powders came into existence for different use to clean different items.

People have to use appropriate soaps for skin hair dishes floors clothes and so on. There is Liquid soap for instant hands washing, Powder soap for cleaning clothes and other uses, Carbolic soap anti dandruff soap in cakes form for care of skin and hair etc. Toilet soap in different fragrance is for care of the skin. Baby soap is for tender baby skin.

It was feared that with the switch over of mankind from dirt roads to paved roads,

from horses to cars, from coal-fire to gas stoves, from oil lamps to electric lamps

from hand fans to air conditioners would mean less need of soap. This belief has proved futile. Every year despite the new inventions of human comfort use of soap has increased. We have turned soap-conscious. We are always on a look out for new brand of soap.

Production of popular brand washing powders is at its record high for the last many years. American Companies Tide Arctic Power have been sending offers for their Partnership. The media, High Commissioners, Consulates have not done justice to such gigantic manufacturing units. They have not projected them before the world for their production capacity marketing and sales. Our companies are satisfying the need of a billion of the population. All High Commissions Consulates of our country have to sing songs of our prosperity and achievements round the clock. We have about 200 Consulates in the world countries. It is their responsibility to project our image at all level so that world population may know what we are, what we have, and what we do. Our soap industry round the year meets with requirement of soap and powder for a billion people. It is time for them to shine in world arena. Our washing powder clandestinely travels to many countries and so on.

It is reported that for one truckload of popular brand washing powder from the Country, to cross over to the neighboring Country, the border staff of each side gets ten thousand coins as bonus per truck.

All around the country hygienic products are among the most heavily and creatively advertised goods. Women are supposedly natural targets of publicity. Dove Shampoo advertisers have made our ladies and girls shampoo addict. They have been kneeling at the feet of the Altar of Beauty and Health for increase of sales. They have put into market one time use and throw small shampoo pouch within easy reach of all of them.

One never feels clean oneself, does not matter how much one cleaned him. He must use a particular soap to feel him clean.  The gap between rich and poor is widening. The poor rather crave for all the luxuries of the rich. Ridiculous TV advertisements of shampoos and soap lead them to buy such things though it may be beyond their reach.  People have since times immemorial always cleaned themselves-but often with too much of soap. The emerging germ and bacteria theory has argued for use of soap. The Biological truth is that without proper antibiotics in the soap, please note that scrubbing cleans better. Carbolic anti biotics soap helps to prevent the germs. But we do not bother. Glycerin soap does not dry the skin but we smell the fragrance and see the label and buy the soap. Long lives our craze for soap.

                                           

                                      

MADHURI DIXIT- BOLLYWOOD FILM STAR.

INDIA STAR POWER

MISS INDIA AND MISS DENVER.

MADHURI DIXIT. WORLD’S TOP LEADING LADY.

MADHURI PATI GRIHAM YAATI.

If you saw her driving around in Denver you might be excused

as you are a nut,  for not recognizing  Madhuri Dixit,  one of the

planet’s a most famous movie star. For the last 25 years Madhuri 46, rocked

India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Afghanistan, Dubai Maskat, Saudi Arabia

Iran, Iraq, Burma Philippines Singapore Hong Kong London New York  as

a Top No.1 Heroin of the Indian screen. Her face, her smile her graceful movement

made her an immortal actress in hearts of millions-old young and children of both genders.

She went unrecognized when skiing at the Denver Colorado mountains in the cold atmosphere of minus ten. Madhuri says she is still surprised by twist of the fate that vaulted her to the top of Indian star firmament  since l982 earning top billing in films on lines of super mega stars.

She is Nutan  Mala  Madhubala Meena Kumari combined in one.

Madhuri:-  “No.” “I don’t want to be compared.” 

Madhuri:-  “I like to be my own. I am Madhuri myself, and not a shadow of past celebrity.”

She was searched from Kashmir in 1981. She was seen in a departmental store selecting books and other items in Srinagar. She was followed and traced to an IAS officer’s house visiting Mme. Jaya Jetley and camping with them. Subhas  was on a look out for a rare face. He saw in her face such a face seeing which all past faces faded in oblivion.

Madhuri:-   “I never thought, I would be an actress.”

Madhuri:-   “I really feel that everything came like a dream.” She adds.

Madhuri:-   “Sometimes I am sitting down alone and I can’t believe it.”

Madhuri:-   “I believe that there is something like Luck in this world.”  

Madhuri:-   “I can say. I was Lucky.” She finally sums up.

Madhuri:-   “I was blessed and have this destiny laid down on me.” She added.

Madhuri:-   It is amazing.” She further added while going.

Madhuri’s serendipitous rise to glory started in 1981 when as a college-student

she was persuaded to participate in the Srinagar festival celebrations. She was spotted by Ghai. After begging the crown of Srinagar cultural festival, she dashed into Bollywood filmdom. She was offered various roles in important films against top-stars.

Kashmir was Madhuri’s first trip away. She had never left her place and she was under parental custody under strict disciplinary atmosphere. She was happy to be in Srinagar in awe of the place seeing the lake and the houseboats and all the greenery all around.

Her film experience consisted of a one-minute screen test by Subhas Ghai, she found herself continuously engaged in films after films after Teejab and all that followed, a rare chance in a system that generally requires actors to apprentice in afternoon soaps. She was a domestic loving house caged girl, here suddenly doing movies. She adapted and adjusted her to the new environment by her natural and normal behavior. It was pretty awesome considering that she did not speak the Hindi language like her mother tongue. Her language skills improved thereafter to the extent that she can be at home in Hindi.

After making very famous Hindi films, She who shuns limos, fancy clothes and  make-up, she dreams driving her mercedes 600 on the Rajiv Gandhi Bandra Worli sea link bridge.  Her spot in the Indian Film totem pole is high enough to merit any wild rumors about her romantic life as well as getting tailed around where ever she happened to go by the news reporters.. She remembers how she had worn a burqua and had gone to see her film in Maratha Mandir. She says her name was linked with a cricket-player that was an acquaintance, The cricketer  was the son-in-law of the Jetley family. She had attended their marriage reception and they were photographed together with the Prime Minister and the married couple.

She is business wise. She did not make the mistake.

Many thought that she would have to shoot mother-roles. She confirmed the conception by not being a mother of a child. She describes her roles as emotion roller coasters in which she portrays the sophisticated witty female of the present day generation. She had never a chance to portray controversial roles except her roles in DEVDAAS. and AAJA NACH LE Her journey in the films has remained smooth and flowing.  She has not begged awards in comparison to other film stars, yet, she is the most favorite of more than half of the population of the world who knows who she is and what she is. LONG LIVE MADHURI. You will be always missed.

                                     

TAX EVASION.ONLY 40% TAX IS REALIZED.

                  

        Tax Evasion.

        Only 40 % tax is realized.

Cabs are yellow and Crows are black everywhere. Our Country has remained a safe haven for Smugglers, drug-traffickers, tax-dodgers swindlers money launders and so on. If caught, all you have to do is to flutter few thousand-rupee bills and you are off the hook.  Government loses millions and billions by way of tax evasion. Only forty percent of the tax is realized. In all items same practice is adopted.  Political climate of the country is responsible to allow the trade to cut corners to such a great extent. In no other country of the world such a helpless and hopeless situation exists. Since Independence we have received Billions of Aid, Grant Subsidy and Loans and help from International Agencies. Taxes were reviewed every year. Taxes have to be reviewed once in Five years for sake of stability and uniformity.

Our Country would have been number one rich country in the world. We joined the wrong block.  We did not adopt policy of free market and competition. We burnt bridges with group of progressive nations. Rich in natural resources, blessed with strong   family ties, and hard working people, we were destined to be a recognized nation  in the world arena.  These hopes have been tarnished by political corruption, civil  unrest and faulty Government policies. Our Country is a sleeping Giant. Many countries of the world want to let sleeping giant sleep.  But now this is not so. The sleeping giant has been aroused. Le Voix de la Populi. It is the Court of Last Resort. Voice of the People is FINAL. The Government will have to answer. We were in sound slumber for the last fifty years. The Government will have to publish a list of all aid help grant subsidy loans received and an account thereof as to how much of it was spent where and how much of it had lapsed unused.  We have been repaying loans and interest on loans by which others had benefited. By now we would have been one of the wealthiest countries in the world. 

By now we would have been moving in our private helicopters. The choppers would have taken place of cars automobiles. Most of us would own his own chopper.  Car automobiles enabled us to move anywhere at our sweet will.  Choppers will now replace cars etc. Airplanes have replaced the railways. Air-journey has challenged existence of railways. Choppers need to be modernized in point of view of low price safety and quality. 

BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE AT LEAST ONE GOOD FRIEND.

A Friend in need is friend indeed.

While pensive friends painful vigils keep;

Without support themselves, they support friends indeed,

Good friends and good friendship must ever join;

To err is human, to forgive is divine.

Ram’s marriage was nearing end.  He had left his wife, two

children.  Sam heard what Ram had done.  Although he lived six

hundred miles away, he availed a week-end to drive down to see him.

Sam knew what Ram needed was not judgment but an encouragement.

Sam shared his concern, love and support.  They moved together at

all the local known places visiting them sightseeing and enjoying

each other’s company, for full two days and parted.

What Ram had lacked was support from a friend who would look eye to eye

and offer a strong shoulder of support.  That support may come

in different ways. Some times it may come through love and caring;

other times through confrontation and accountability.

Ram’s life changed when both were willing to reach beyond

themselves and their concerns and get involved in pursuit of

nothing. Sam lend him his shoulder of support to make him

realize that he was not alone in this world.

Man-to Man encouragement has a different kind of power than

man-to-woman.  He could relate to the struggles of another friend.

At a critical moment in his life Ram needed Sam more than his wife

as a support.

Without Sam’s saying anything what he should do and all that,

Sam heard that Ram had been united with his family and they were OK.

Blessed are those who have good friends.

PERFUMES.

PERFUMES.

It is a multi-billion dollars business.  France had its monopoly.

Now it is shared by other European Countries and the USA.

Stakes are high. Behind every great perfume there lies a big nose. You imagine a

perfume and its fragrance should come to your mind. Perfume is Nature’s

gift of something rare that enlivens our senses and the mind. We have reduced it

to pure business. Success of perfume begins with the bottle. It must be eye-

catching. It has to be rare-unseen.  The box likewise. Packing must be attractive like the contents. Its sale runs on publicity. It is a craft not an art. Marketing comes first, quality comes thereafter. It is a twenty billion dollars business an year. Americans alone consume perfumes worth eight billions.

American Companies invested billions of dollars in this business. In the

Year l973 US put into market its brand Charlie-an American life

style perfume, which has netted billions in dollars and is still in demand.

Perfumes are a mixture of oils diluted with eighty to ninety percent of spirit.

Perfumes are an accessory like jewelry. Some are conservative, some lively.

The fragrance should not shout. It has to be elegant, crisp and sophisticated.

Perfume is a promise in a bottle. “We sell hope.” It is an industry of myths.

It does not hold up in scrutiny of daylight. It is lot like show business.

It is reported Cleopatra of Egypt invited Mark Antony on her barge, which had

its sails soaked in perfumes.

Nero, the Emperor of Rome used to bath in rose water.

Natural fragrance comes from musk of deer, plants and flowers. It takes 800

kilo of rose flowers to make one kilo of rose oil concentrate. Jasmine smell

is a popular one. In our country  female workers work in jasmine flower gardens

right very early in the morning to pluck them before sunrise. Sun rays

diminish the fragrant oils contained in jasmine flowers. Roughly ten lakh

jasmine flowers yield a kilo of jasmine oil concentrate. This costly reality

of natural perfumes has led to making of synthetic perfumes. In ancient

times many who could afford made their houses of sandal wood.

In our country we have availability of Toluene and Benzene at our oil refineries.

We have natural resources of flowers like rose jasmine daisy etc. We have many

Glass bottles manufacturing units. We have many paper and paper board box and Cartons manufacturing units making eye catching boxes to wrap the perfume bottles. Our perfumes must be well quality wise. It must smell well. It must last and not evaporate. The smell must stay.

Mankind is divided into different smell groups. Persons of similar taste of smell flock together. Nose is the smell organ that does it. Smell and memory are inter-woven.  Sense of the smell is recorded in the backseat of the mind. It helps to identify a particular smell and link it to the memory of a particular person. Nose can identify a person on the basis of smell of his perfume. No other organ of the body possesses so quick an access to the mind.

Ancient world saw perfumes in shape of incense sticks and smoke of scented wood. Natural perfumes were made from musk of deer, from flowers herbs and mints basil etc. Males used to perfume their beard. Perfumes were made from spices saffron clove cardamom cinnamon peppermint dry fruits like almonds etc. depending upon its availability. Perfumes are a part of your self. It must not be gaudy. It must mix with your body not revealing as well as not concealing. It has to be natural as if it belonged to you. It should not shout. It should be calm quiet and awe inspiring. They are a promise in a bottle.

Saffron and musk smell is captivating. Musk is obtained from the

navel of deer in the Mountain side.  Musk deer carry a pouch of musk in

its navel.  It is obtained by killing them. Now trend is for synthetic musk.

Saffron grows in the slopes of the Mountains and parts of the Country. Saffron

is purplish crocus that blooms over night. After snipping few buds of saffron,

fingers turn yellow which if not washed soon would remain stained for a few days.

Saffron is high in chronic natural dye whose color when diluted is

Mellow yellow, which exudes an ambrosial aroma of

sweet tobacco laced with an elixir. It is a practice to collect saffron from

a flower before the petals open up. It protects stigmas inside. Pulling

filaments from each bud are called process of deflowering. About 2400

buds of saffron yield about two-ounce of green saffron. It is allowed to

dry. It turns pure saffron about an ounce fetching hundred dollars by our

standard.

Let us examine the manufacture in terms of business profit and loss.

For example a quantity of one thousand liters of Benzene Toluene

May cost fifty thousand. fifty thousand we allot to perfumes

concentrate. Fifty thousand for bottle boxes taxes transportation

and publicity. In all it would cost a hundred fifty thousand. Now let us see

what we gain. One thousand liters of Benzene or Toluene would make

ten thousand l00 ml bottles to be sold each at a price of hundred rupees.

It would fetch a sum of ten lakh against our investment of one lakh.fifty.

That is a profit margin of one to ten. Not a bad business.
