Lie or Not Lie : A Controversial Daily Question!

The very first lesson a small kid is taught by his parents, even before “charity begins at home” is “do not lie”. But how many of us are born Yuthisthira, someone who prided for his vow of not uttering a single untruth word, but still somewhat failed to withhold it at the time of war? So, is it so much necessary that one cannot do without? Or we all have fallen prey to some inescapable peer pressure that it’s the only the feasible option most of the time?

Papa Kehte Hain MBA Karega : The Great Indian Conundrum

A little while back, I was speaking to a college junior – for probably, the first time. After a small introduction, the first question she asks me is – “ Is there any way I can get myself evicted from this college? ”, with an innocent smile on her face. Prima facie, I thought she must be kidding. But that was not to be…

Humanity is lost somewhere between the borders..

A plane crashes near Ukraine border on 17th July 2014; all the 280 passengers and 18 crew members lose their lives. Hundreds of families destroyed, tens of innocent children who barely learnt to speak are dead within a fraction of a second. And moments later another news flashing on my TV screen, the Indian media brings to our attention that had the supposed attack been 5 minutes late, an Air India flight would have been crashed instead. And if the attack had happened an hour later, then India might have had lost their dearest Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi, because both these flights were to follow the same route as the Malaysian flight. Till this point, I was following the media and their online columns. But suddenly I found something very intriguing in the comments section of these columns.

The IIM-L Time-Turner

I rushed to the examination hall and took up my seat. The Finance quiz begins in another two minutes. Thanks to the IIM-L time-turner that I could take the quiz and also attend the seminar at the same time. After all IIM Lucknow has so much to offer to its students that you want to miss nothing.

IIM-L being a constellation of supreme brains came up with the concept of time-turner. Now time-turner is a time-travelling devise that enables you to be at two or more situations simultaneously. Hence the prodigies of IIM L can attend more than one class at the same time. Obviously they were inspired by Professor McGonagall’s gift to Hermoine in the Harry Potter Series. But the fact was it worked. Now device had become the favourite neckpiece of the IIM-L students and they were bagging knowledge like never before.
