Image
Life is very beautiful, if we live it cautiously. One of the many challenges in today’s era is cybercrime.  The fact is that many times in life we are judged wrong even though we aren't, through cybercrime our own identity could be misused.  ‘The Hindu’, one of the leading news daily report an average of 375 cybercrime cases per day in India. In this increasingly digital age, we rely heavily on the Internet for everyday tasks.  There are as many disadvantages as there are advantages in using the Internet.  As a result, cybercrime is on the rise.  There is a government mechanism to curb it, the Home Department of Government of Maharashtra has established Cybercrime department as the Office of Special Inspector General of Police, Maharashtra Cyber on 5th January 2015.

Voice of The Youth- Think Differently

  “I believe in the Power of Youth.” The more we, the youth recognize that we have a voice, the more change is possible. Everyone has a different opinion and with time even this opinion has to change. In today’s hectic life change cannot just be wished for, efforts are required to bring change. To change the circumstances, we need to see things in a different way and we need to start thinking from a different angle rather than accepting the bitter and unacceptable opinion of the world.   It is time for us to think big and to act big. We cannot waive off every situation with, ‘ Are iska kya hai, sab thik hojayega, chalta hai’, because w ho knows if everything will be fine. If everyone starts thinking in a similar manner, then we are succumbing to societal norms and rejecting new approach. Well may be people might think you for crazy or may be-outspoken to have your opinion. But sometimes crazy is ok, far better than humdrum and not everything needs a rationale to begin wit...

Voice of the Youth - Gender Equality

  VOICE OF THE YOUTH Yatra Naryastu Pujyante  Ramante Tatra Devata It means that God resides wherever women are respected. Women are most respected in our society. I have always respected every girl or woman.  But still, women are considered unimportant and a curse in many families. They are not given equal opportunities and independence as men. They are just allowed to do household work even though they have the required skill and talent whereas, on the other hand, the men are given more importance and opportunity. This mostly happens in conservative and narrow-minded families and societies. Due to this discrimination, the government has organized many schemes and campaigns to save and protect girl child and women. This has led to a positive change in peoples' minds towards girls' and women's education and development. All these campaigns conducted help to change the mindset of narrow-minded people and conservative male-dominated society, where women don't get equal op...

Image
There have been ample discussions on the topic from decades and both the opposing and favouring sides have ample arguments to prove their point. Some might argue on the low quality of service provided by public banks with lengthy procedures and others might argue about higher interest rates charged by private banks. But need of the hour is to study what are the effects of privatization of banks at grassroots level. Talking about positives of privatization of banks, everyone knows of the focus on digitization and ease of operation they offer. The working of private banks is more professional than public banks and very competitive which brings to customer an array of new schemes every couple of years. With privatization of the sector the burden on government is reduced. Furthermost, the politicized launch and use of banking schemes such as loan waiver etc. could be avoided. This way the private banking sector proves to less risky and brings in foreign capital through Foreign Direct Inves...
