Story of Loyalty

There were about 70 scientists working on a very hectic project and were really frustrated due to the pressure of work and the demands of their boss but everyone was loyal to him and did not think of quitting their job. One day, one scientist came to his boss and told him, “Sir, I have promised my children that I will take them to the exhibition in our township so I want to leave the office at 5:30 pm.” His boss replied positively. The Scientist started working and continued his work after lunch. As usual, he got involved to such an extent that he looked at his watch only when he felt he was close to completion. The time was 8.30 PM. Suddenly he remembered the promise he had made to his children. Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having disappointed his children. Reaching home he found that children were not there and his wife alone was sitting in the hall and reading magazines. His wife asked him, “Would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away serve dinner if you are hungry?” The man replied, “If you would like to have coffee, I too will have but what about the children?” His wife replied, “You don’t know? Your boss came here at 5.15 PM and has taken the children to the exhibition.” What had really happened was … The boss who granted him permission was observing him working seriously at 5.00 PM. He thought to himself, this person will not leave the work, but if he has promised his children they should enjoy the visit to exhibition. So he took the lead in taking them to exhibition. The boss does not have to do it every time. But once it is done, loyalty is established. That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work under their boss even though the stress was tremendous. By the way, can you hazard a guess as to who the boss was? He was none other than the mastermind behind India ‘s successful nuclear weapons and missiles program. "Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam", Former President of India !

English Vs Hindi

No wonder we are stepping up towards the league of being a developed country but we arelacking something that prompted me to post few lines. It’s about our national language "hindi".Surprisingly but the fact is that once again we are heading towards the black hole. Directly or indirectly somewhere down the line even we too are held responsible for this fall.
Now i won't start from the core areas. It is surprising to see how much parents now-a-days talk to their kids in English and how little in the national language. Whenever I go to some restaurant, park etc and if there is a family with their kids, all I can hear is young kids talking to each other in English. Their parents may talk in hindi but whenever they talk to kids, it would be in English. the reason is simple they want to make their kids go according to the present demand ,they are pushing their kids a head start into the language their kids will use in their professional life but wont they have enough time to learn that in school ?
With upcoming IT sectors, BPO's ,the demand of english has grown up exponentially . But if you look countries like Japan, china and most of the European countries, you will get to know it is because of their national language usage in every field led them to be in the list of the developed countries. The impact is that it brings out the extra energy to boost up and do well. We only know how to do things in extremes, the best way to implement is to keep a balance of all the tiers.
