Raise working age for children

The ILO has lowered the working age of children to 14.Is it not too early an age to become independent. A via-ble die-able age when money in hand could land you in unadvisable places.The ILO chief technical advisor MP Joseph added saying they could do safe jobs.If one happen to exclude the unsafe jobs we would be left with a few.Introducing the education rights act and simultaneously lowering the age for working would leave much options for the children to opt out of studying at 14,which means more and more children would only have a ssc certificate.It could have been increased to 16 so that a minimum 12th pass was assured.He also added ILO was commited to improving the diginity of workers which comes under the purview of labour laws.May that be a relief to the thousands of labourers spread out all over kerela who are facing harsh circumstances. The education of their children being most effected hope some measures would be taken to ensure schoolings for the children of the labourers and migrants,whose children we call street children and are devoid of all basic ameneties in a country we call as Gods own. May we become a role model to other states and countries in the way we treat our poor tourists who end-up as permenant settlers.Depriving education for their children means bringing no change in their present pitiful states of life.May atleast the coming generation grow up with basic education to atleast read and write.

The forbidden veil

It is a shame to talk about love-jihad in a country like kerala which calls itself 100% literate.Hindu and christian girls finding solace under the hijab and burkha are going missing to untraceable regions of either syria or tehraan and recruited to IS. The situation is alarming  and every possible steps need to be taken to warn our children of the danger. Girls are lured with sky high dreams of money, job and other luxaries and a thorough education of the islaam religion is given.When the net's are thoroughly laid the prey is trapped and  she is lost in a world called 'Hell'. Where are we going wrong?  Is our education system lacking something very much or are the family backgrounds too weak and unhealthy that girls do not find anything wrong in detaching themselves from her family and  having no pity for her beloved ones,  just leaves her home with this man or boy whom she met yesterday. Christian girls falls less prey compared to the hindus because the church has a bigg

"what am I"

Every action of a man is an internal orientation. It may be a good one or a bad one. Every action reflects a pesrons character. There is an outer being and an inner-being. Just as we make-over our outer-being in all possible ways to look attractive,the same way our inner being also needs a replenishing, as this is the way to polish your mind and soul, because it is the highest form of consciousness and intelligence which deserves a freedom or detachment from the body. This is the only way one can attain happiness, pleasure and enjoyment of the mind, this in simple words could be told as mental freedom. An imprisoned inner-being only brings pain, sorrow and discomfort as its narrowness to exist only fills in you desires to possess and accumulate. Whats the use of having all the richness and luxuries and no happiness.                             Our physical self or the annamaya kosha is activated only because of the invisible powers of our pranamaya kosha or innerself. A healthy body

The meaning of duty is not sacrifice

It was a bright sunny day and as usual i was ready at my  table waiting for my client who had taken an appointment the previous day. At 11 a.m a tall and fair women with a little plump figure,came sporting a little smile that the tender leaves would feel when the first drop of rain falls on it, her eyes with a little dark circles held secrets as deep as the sea and as she sat before me placing a small peice of paper with her date and time of birth. i watched her with not much curiosity and fixed my glance to her horoscope details.                                                               After studying her chart, I lifted my eyes and saw a face swelled like a rising sun and waiting to burst into flames.....There was anger,fear,frustration and emotion all put in together in a young women called merlyn. I looked into her moist eyes and asked her just one question "How many times did you think of a divorce"? she looked at me unbelievably and trying hard to not break do
