The Verdict of Bhopal Gas Tragedy

We all know about the tragic historic incident which happened in India, The Bhopal Gas tragedy, in the year 1984. This incident is the case study for management guys on what will happen if the GXp is not followed in industries. It is almost 25 years since this tragic even occured and now only the court has given the verdict, let aside the actual verdict given. For a historic tragedy if a court is taking such a long time to give verdict then if we think about other cases it gives us nightmare. I think the accused will not be punished in this birth.

Now coming to the actual verdict it is really a shocking thing that 2 years of imprisonment was given to the local managers of the company who were blamed for the catastrophic Bhopal disaster. Moreover they were granted bail within the same day. It is still more shocking that the principle accused of this incident "Warren Anderson" who was the chairman of Union Carbide when the incident took place, was not at all brought into the picture and was set free. After seeing the verdict of the case I was really shocked, Flabbergasted,stunned... you can fill in more related verbs. This brings shame on India for letting the person's, who were responsible for this historic indient, free without getting any punishment. This will bring a feeling for rest of them who commit such attoricities to keep doing their act and get escaped from the punishments. If the same thing has happened in any of the gulf countires the punishment would have been severe and it would have been given immediately, not like us giving lenient punishments that too after a long period of 25 years.

This clearly depicts that the supreme court is not concerned about the people who suffer and they are run by politics which helps the accused to escape without punishment. This is a act of shame by supreme court in giving such a lenient punishment that too after a long time.
If this is happening then please think what will be the future of India? Will there be justice given fairly to those who need it?

Few Experiences of Life

I was thinking of a topic for writing a post in my blog and then it suddenly struck me to write about my experiences in life which i have faced till now. I am just penning down my thoughts in a abstract way. This may not be something new but I am trying to present this in my way of observing the experiences which i have faced till now.

I am starting with one of the most important thing and which i have given it my previous post Positive Thinking. I have already given that in detail in the previous post so I am not going to touch that topic much. This is something which cannot be contradicted and which is not new to all of us.

Next thing which is tightly coupled with the above is Boldness while handling things and while speaking with others. Boldness in handling things is important as if we are a coward we will not be able to handle things easily and we will be branded as an underdog. Even if we are nervous initially we need to act as if you are bold so that we will tend to be bold from the next time. Here I am quoting wordings of Chanakya which impressed me a lot :
"Even if a snake is not poisonous, it should pretend to be venomous."
I must also mention here that boldness also includes accepting the mistakes done by us, then only we will try to rectify them and we don't tend to commit mistakes in future.

Next I want to discuss about another characteristic, Whistle Blowing, which coupled with boldness. This is something which is important as we cannot simply accept all things which happens in front of us. We need to do Whistle Blowing wherever we feel something is going out of place and where we have the gut feeling that someone is going against what is the right thing. This characteristic cannot come just like that if we are not bold.

Next is something which I am going to discuss is something very important in life, Friendship. We need to choose our friends correctly, we just can't be friends just like that. This is something which I have learnt in a harder way in my life. Friend is someone who is there with us in need and whom we can believe and share our thoughts. Here I want to mention about one important thing which we need to consider while selecting friends, "Dont believe in person who makes promises and not keeping them up and believe those who keep up the promises". We also need to be careful while sharing our sorrows or weaknesses to those who we consider as friends unless you feel that they are really caring about you. This can be easily found out as one who is really concerned, immediately comes for our help and help us out from coming out of our sorrows and overcoming our weaknesses. I want to give my favorite quote here "A friend in need is a friend indeed".

One important thing which I am going to discuss and which is a very pain thing is that "Do not let out words unless you are confident that what you speak is 100% right". If not it will lead to destruction of image. This is because a man is judged by the speech and moreover truth behind what he speaks. If this is not followed then it may lead to loosing of confidence of the person and finally it may lead to loss of friendships.

Out my experiences of life one major thing which we all tend to fall prey easily is Backbiting and double crossing. This is something which is very common and we all know about that, but still become a victim for that. Backbiting is something very common among both. We may feel a person that he is good, but he may posses this quality. This is more common now a days as people tend to come up by suppressing others and about taking advantage of the weakness of others. I was also a victim for this a hell lot of times. This makes me quote about something which was advised by my mom, "Talk whatever you feel bad about a person in front of him and in absence of the person we should not talk at all about the person or even if we talk we need to talk about the good aspects about him". This if we observe that it will cause a good impression about the person and also about us. We need to start analyzing the character initially when we talk with a person so that we don't fall prey for backbiting and double crossing.

Above all I want to conclude my post by telling that we need to have 100% faith on god which is the most important experience which I have faced in life. 100% faith in god + hard work can bring out wonders in person's life.
I have written this post based on my experiences alone. Please let me know about your honest comments after reading this post.

Positive Attitude In Life

Everybody may come across the word "Positive attitude in life" from achievers and may think this particular phrase to be something which is something very hard to practice it in their life. They may also consider this to be some sort of characteristics which is something locked with the achievers alone. In fact I was also thinking the same until i came out from the circle which was drawn virtually around me. The problem with us is that we are bound to restrict ourselves, which i called it as a virtual circle around us in my previous sentence. It is easy to incorporate "Positive Attitude", if we come out of our shells within which we try to restrict ourselves. In other words i will say we can live with the positive attitude as habit, instead of trying to incorporate as a new characteristic in our life.

Fear of failure is one of the reason which makes us to create virtual circles around us. We need to have right balance between joy of success and fear of failure. We need to balance our mind to be in a steady state when we face some success in life. Success and failures should not be taken to mind. A person always facing success and if this is taken to his mind, this may make him think superior and he may consider those around him as a inferior. If these person faces a failure in life, he will be totally broken and may get affected mentally. Similarly those who are facing failure continuously in life, if he takes it to his mind then he might get to a mental state called "Inferiority Complex". Both the state is too dangerous, so there comes the striking of balance between joy of success and fear of failure. We have to concentrate on the second scenario as that is the topic of discussion in this section, if the person converts his failure to determination of achieving the goal, then he becomes successful. We have to fight till last till we get what we want. I mean fight till the last does not mean that we need to literally fight, but this is what is called as determination to achieve our goal. This is what is called as "Positive Attitude In Life".

Can-Can approach is something which very important. Nothing is Impossible in this world, except for giving life or taking life. I was thinking this approach to be a herculean task, but later found that it was easy. If we accept to do anything we are tend to complete the job, so we automatically strive to complete the job. This will initially seems to be something difficult, but when used to can-can approach this becomes a habit in life. This also improves the accuracy in completing a job.

These are something which i had experienced in life, in harder way. These are some point which i wanted to share with all. I am open for any comments from those who view my posts. Please do share your comments.
