If Narendra Modi Is Serious About His ‘Surgical Strike’ On Black Money Then…

November 19, 2016

IF is the word to remember all the while. At 8:15 PM on November 8, Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi in an unscheduled live televised address to the nation announced the circulation of all ₹500 and ₹1000 bank notes of the Mahatma Gandhi Series as invalid and announced the issuance of new ₹500 and ₹2000 banknotes of the Mahatma Gandhi New Series in exchange for the old banknotes. This step was lauded by all (at first) for its boldness and, showing resolve to fight the menace of counterfeit notes running in market and taking fight against Black Money which was Modi’s big electoral promise to new heights. This was initial response (read mostly from social media). But next day when sun rose and people started to function in real world, things got real.

Two, why do you think is his latest joke objectionable? And yes, I'll still call it a joke because he meant and thought it was a joke. We can then classify it as a bad joke, obscene joke etc but it is a joke nonetheless. But why was this objectionable? The premise or foundational basis of the joke is a belief that children don't like the idea of their parents having sex. The joke is b...

For the girl or guy you save the last dance for, need not be the one you spend your life with. But, that's ok. Isn't it? For, till you find your ideal partner, you can have fun with a buddy. All you have to do is just give a call or drop a message and he or she will be there at your doorstep. Yes, having a f**k or a sex buddy is cool, comfy and fun, feel the youth. We talk to them on what they call a "win-win situation." A friend in need, is a friend indeed! Who else, but your buddy to best understand your needs. "A bed buddy keeps one happy, 'coz there are no strings attached. And it's not a new trend, just that now it's a fad, just like having a boyfriend or a girlfriend," says Prateek, a manager with a city eatery. "It's hass...
