Well Done Egypt

Well Done Egypt.

18 days of organised protests.... peaceful demonstrations... Gandhian principles re-instated...

What a Feel good factor generated by the oldest civilised population - by shunning out the mindless Jihadi concept !!!

Hope USA has learned some lesson... they bombarded Afghan and Iraq with non-existent WMD story.... hope they would have taken some cues.... by seeing how a country is made !!!

Egyptians enviable task ahead :

a. Transition to democratic, elected government
b. Political, Judicial and electoral reforms
c. Multi party system with credible leadership
d. Ensuring Job growth by industrialisation and tourism
e. Transparent power transfer thru election process by September

All the best. We love you Egypt. We are with you.

Sensex outlook Feb 2011

Nifty is trading around 5465 levels as I write this post. Nifty has come down significantly in January and touched a low of 5400-5410 levels.

Outlook for Feb:

Don't think it will fall significantly from here. Tepid or narrow movement trading to follow until budget. 5250 to 5750 could be the range until Budget.

If the budget is bad or cant be presented due to 2G JPC issue., Nifty might crack to 5050-5125 levels and Sensex could hit 16500-650 levels.

Avoid trading and go for delivery based buying in dips in Nifty stocks.

Eden fiasco - a funny take

Ground inspection is going on by ICC. An imaginative, funny take on how the inspection would have got carried out...

ICC: Can we inspect the ground ?
Eden Off: yes pls
ICC: How many stands we have ?
Eden Off: 10
ICC: How many are ready ?
Eden Off: all are ready. but you are supposed to check it. Dont you want to check?
ICC: Yes., we will check. Why no chairs on this stand?
Eden Off: Chairs will be put in another 10 days. you see., there will be dust when construction is going on. so., we want that to get over.
ICC: When this stand 7 will get ready ?
Eden Off: dont tell anybody sir... this was ready some 5 months before. But the top three rows got collapsed and then we rectified it. It is almost ready now.
ICC: (didnt know what to react)... now, is it ready or not ?
Eden Off: yes, it is ready now. only painting is pending.
ICC: Why the Debris is remaining all over?
Eden Off: If we clean all the debris, it will bring drishti. we will remove it 15 days before the match.
ICC: What is drishti ?
Eden off: you see., folks who walk inside will say "wow","beautiful"... that will bring drishti. and it is not good for the stadium.
ICC: Where about the lights ?
Eden Off: Tower is there. We bought Crompton lamps instead of Philips to save some money. But we cant test it now.
ICC: Why ?
Eden off: We have not paid the Electricity bill during last three months. bcoz, construction work was going on. No need for light... you know...
ICC: Faints....

Gone case

Dont understand the fuzz about flag hoisting in J & K. After all., J & K state consumed enough money from GDP over many years., sacrificed many souls....

but still... one cant hoist a flag.... only privileged people can do it twice a year ... i suppose... otherwise, it is viewed as crime !

Generalists to the fore

India is run by two significant set of people.

One is IAS Officers - They are normal graduates, post graduates. Does clear hell lot of civil services / UPSC exams and gain the post. They are rotated randomly inside government over their career across various divisions and manage the show.

They are mainly generalists.... But they take decisions like running a power project or constructing a dam etc.

Second set is High Court Judges - For the past 20 years, they have a say in every big policy decision made in India... right from Caste quota or job quota, various financial fraud cases, 2G etc...

What is interesting is... Can you or me become a General Manager in say Big Bazaar, Toyota showroom ....

Mass crowd is dangerous

India's population has grown exponentially.... Infrastructure is no match for the demand. Hence, Sabarimala cannot handle 1.2 crore people in 45 days duration.

It is foolish to presume "no risk" mentality to go places like Kumbhmela, Sabarimala to quote as example... We are in a country where there is no value for life, risk, protection, organised approach, Queue system or quota system or any scientific measurement based ticketing system.

In fact, parents make the kids to follow "no footwear" in those period ... I feel like slapping their parents than kids. Senseless is the only word.

Note : I am not against going to temples but against mass visits.
