ARTICLE 356
There are three kinds of Emergencies: Due to War (Art. 352), State Machinery Failure (Art. 356) and Financial Emergency (Art. 360).
Article 356 has gathered a lot of attention in past and has raised lots of eyebrows whenever implemented. When the President is satisfied that the State Government cannot be carried out in accordance with the provisions of constitution, the Emergency is declared. Such decision is usually made on the report of the Governor of the state. The duration of such proclamation is generally two months and can be extended under certain constraints.

CORPORATES IN EDUCATION
Images of Infosys mentor Narayan Murthy at IIT brings in a thought that can change a lot in this country if realized.
Census 2001 reveals population of India to be 1.02 billion. If we estimate today’s youth under 15 to be around 150 million and consider that at least a fifth will go for graduation then about 30 million is the head count of Indian Education System.
In three four years of graduation and skill learning, every student spend about 1 lac on an average. Simple maths. In near future the total value of Indian Education System is about 3000 billion rupees. Wonderful, isn’t it?
Before all the potent talent and economics is dumped into pockets of barely legal (at times illegal) institutions or foreign universities may mushroom around; its high time for firms like Infosys, Wipro, Reliance, Tata to enter the education system and make this country human-resource rich.

THE NAME IS KHAN
Current Affairs: Shahrukh Khan Humiliated!!
Indians love their demigods and stars. A common man humiliated and Bollywood star being held for security reasons are as different as earth and sky that always stand parallel.
US has gone paranoid since 9/11 and till they gain control over terrorism, they should be. Even after the attack on the Parliament, the control over terrorism in this country is less than meager… and see, we talk about courage.
Lets accept. US have not faced terror attacks after 9/11. Yes, they are paranoid but at least their citizens are safe. And Bollywood… people are always more than emotional.
