Few days before i saw a news in a daily.... a new born baby girl has been found dead in a canal . News with shocking picture.............i stared at her picture ...not once, so many times. Her navel string was not to be removed, that hanged like it has full dream of life. For a while i thought about my childhood........i was a little Princess of my parents.
I felt irritation so i ran to kitchen and hugged my Mother tightly then asked "Did you ever regret having a daughter?"my question came with full emotion. She slowly removed my hands and sighed then said NO ."If a woman became pregnant before her marriage ,what would she do?" i threw another one. She looked at me..then said "definitely she cant offer her child a life".Why she cant?...my question." For the prestige of her family"she said. This time i had nothing to ask.
That Mother might have said ...."Yes I Did It For The Prestige Of My Family"

Do yoy know?
Air pollution in India causes 5,27,700 deaths every year (WHO).21% of communicable diseases in India, related to polluted water.In India, diarrhoea alone causes more than 1,600 deaths daily (WHO). I think it is too dangerous.What is your opinion about this problem?
Tips for good writing
1. Be fair.Presenting all sides of a story is copping out.
2. Observe good taste.
3. Make the lead provocative and simple.
4. Sentence should be simple.
5. Quotes improve a story.Use them.
6. An important story need not be long.
7. Select adjectives carefully.Too many are dangerous.
8. Dont be impressed with an important assignment.
9. Go directly to the source on every story possible.
10.Leave no reasonable question unanswered.Do not assume readers know the background.And dont be afraid to write a good story you think readers already know.
11.Be polite,but do't be servile.
12.Get details.
13.Don't be afraid to try something that is not in the book.
14.Even if you have mastered the language,use short easy words.
15.Stories are improved by the injection of the time element.
16.After the lead,blend the story from paragraph to paragraph.
17.Don't insult a race,an ethnic group,a minority group or other separate entity.Identify when it adds information.The distintion is thin at times.
18.Don't abuse your privileges or the weapons of your industry.
19.Admit errors quickly and fully.
20.Name the source of your story when possible.If it is an expose from a confidential source,protect that source.

Terrorism: What is needed is a global solution
Terrorism is a major threat.
it is high time that countries of the world must put their heads together to protect the world from this menace. Incidents in Pakistan clearly indicate that nobody can escape the wrath of the terrorists. It is growing like Cancer. Expanding everyday, finding new areas,new frontiers...
Terrorism has fond a new target in sports. Attack on the Sre Lankan cricket team is a clear indication of this. The players escaped luckily. Otherwise...
Think of a world cricket where there is no Muthaia Muralitharan - one of the finest bowlers cricket has ever produced.Think of Srilankan team without Jayasurya - Who revolutionized cricket through his attacking game. Not to forget Sangakkara,Mendis and many others. If the terrorist would have succeeded in their plan, Sreelankan team would have been a past memory.
Terrorism had grown with globalism. Now the terrorist controls an attack in Mumbai, sitting in Karachi. Like the multinational companies, many of the terrorist organizations had there base in different parts of the world. They gets recruits at there will, from all parts of the world. They misguides the youth, providing what they want. Their approach is tactical. they had got enough money, weapons and even Brains. It is time to change our partisan approach towards this serious problem. Terrorism had grown beyond our imagination, our reach, and even beyond our comprehension. Now there is no regional solution for the problem.
So, to solve this problem a global strategy is necessary. An American or Indian solution will not solve this problem. To solve this problem a global consents is necessary. Think Globally,Act Globally is the mantra to succeed the fight against terrorism. The world organizations Like United Nations , NATO etc must address this as their main issue. Countries of the world should work together. But, sadly that is what we lack. Some still think that they are safe and beyond the reach of terrorists.
