Kapil Sibbal & IIT

Latest comment by union minister Mr. Kabil Sibbal about the qualification for the candidate to appear in the IIT test is showing the thoughts of him against the states which are producing most IITians like (Bihar, U.P …..).

As per Mr. Union minister the qualifying marks should increase from 60% to 80%. It will benefit only CBSE curriculum, state boards are unable to give such kind of results. In state boards only 5-10% of candidates take 80% or more than that, but in CBSSE boards the percentage is up to 40%.

If the thought will be in use, it will demoralize the students of state board. And the IIT will have only students from A category of cities and A category of families.

You should vote

Across the country campaigns have sprung up urging educated youth to come out and vote. For some it is a brand-building exercise. Tata Tea's Jaagore campaign, in association with urban reforms advocacy, Janaagraha, is a wake-up call that blends with the stimulants it hawks. Actor Aamir Khan would like youth to regard the casting of the ballot not as a vote for but a vote against - a protest against everyone and everything that harms the nation.

Pakistan could collapse within six months

Pakistan could collapse within six months in the face of snowballing insurgency, according to a top expert on guerrilla warfare. Such dire prediction was given by David Kilcullen, a former adviser to top US military commander General David H. Petraeus. Petraeus also echoed the same thought when he told a Congressional testimony last week that insurgency was one which could “take down” Pakistan, which is home to nuclear arms and al-Qaida. Kilcullen’s comments come as Pakistan is witnessing an unprecedented upswing in terrorists strikes and now some analysts in Pakistan and Washington are putting forward apocalyptic timetables for the country.

In an analysis piece, the New York Times cast doubts about the success of President Barack Obama’s strategy offering Pakistan a partnership to defeat insurgency, but the Pakistanis still consider India enemy number one. Officially, Pakistan’s government welcomed Obama’s strategy, with its hefty infusions of American money, hailing it as a “positive change”, the paper said. But as the Obama administration tries to bring Pakistanis to its side, large parts of the public, political class and the military have brushed off the plan, rebuffing the idea that the threat from al-Qaida and the Taliban, which Washington calls a common enemy, is so urgent, it added.

Reason of Market crush

Many factors. One, there is a change in the global investment climate. One of the primary triggers is the huge fear of the United States' economy going into a recession with foreign institutional investors trying to reallocate their funds from risky emerging markets to stable developed markets. Analysts are now expecting a cut in US interest rates.

Hedge funds and FIIs could have been the biggest sellers in the Indian markets, booking profits and making the most of the unprecedented bull run that has dominated the Indian stock market for a long time now.

The current volatility is also linked to global bourses. There is a big correlation among global markets. The presence of hedge funds across asset classes, along with increased global movement of capital, has increased event-related volatility.
