After our grey matter learnt manufacturing and cooking cuisines; we also began to manufacture arms and ammunition for the territorial demarcation and safety. Which led to wars and Genocide, the story doesn't end here !!!!!!!! We began to cut forests for the Makaan, kill other species and prove our superiority. Well, this yet didn't suffice, so we moved over to chemicals; mixing them in soil to reap more benefits and produce more food, more money, more medicines, more manufacturing, more pollution.. and we started spiralling down in masculinity, conquests and capturing thus totally ignorant of the balance we a

Upcycle   - the New Cult! Pollution, cutting trees, environment conservation etc. are a few hot burning topics been spoken about a lot.. but our habits and the need for surging economy towards growth and development itself is a hurdle towards conservation. In between, there are sensitive groups who keep taking small initiatives to add their contribution to our own cause of saving some resources than money for the generations to come!!! Upcycle – another cult setting in is the best solution for conservation wherein you recreate and transform anything which probably is of no use. You save many trees from being cut by not getting new furniture made You don’t contribute to air pollution Anything manufactured in factories certainly has effluent emission in the water bodies or environment The noise of course, as output of manufacturing and construction. My recent visits to some eateries in Gurgaon intrigued me to write this piece, high tech environmen

In a flashing visit of his Excellency H.E .  Pekka Haavisto, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Finland in India, we got a chance to capture some points from his vision to develop the world, especially human capital in amalgamation with the environment. Therefore in a multidimensional meet, with a focus to boost the economy of Africa and how India can be a key contributor or driver for the same, various aspects were discussed. “ Africa and Great Power Politics – Views from Europe and India ” was the topic covered at Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi, India. We all are aware that India and Africa have pre-colonial connections, apart from genetic and the lions we know of.. we’ve had business connections; and subsequent to the continent split up, trade routes were developed. Africa is rich and endowed with the best natural resources, minerals, space, and sunshine; hence NOW it is time to boost up the long-struggling economy, reviving our age-old connections and building

......... thoughts from the Capital city of a Secular Republic India...... Recent   setting up of a milestone on 5th August 2019,  in history of India, by scrapping Article 370 which gave Kashmir a special status dividing it from India was a bold and righteous move by Indian Government, under leadership of Narendra Modi, towards a peaceful society. The move itself instigated entire India to debate on communal perspective which I personally believe has no grounds... And while all this was on, I happened to visit Old Fort in the Capital of India, Delhi. Masjid built by Shershah Suri The Old Fort, which occupies a huge piece of land in a place/ city where finding space is a challenge, I got some intriguing thoughts rather questions which might stir the souls of those who spark up divisional movements.. # Old Fort is believed to be the Old Indraprastha, land of Pandavas who were Kshatriya in origin. #The influence of Mauraya empire is also spoken about in that space and rema
