On the occasion of #கலைஞர்தினம் let me tell you a sweet story of how Karunanidhi got the title of "scientific chor" from Judge Sarkariya
When Karunanidhi was the PWD minister 27000 bags of sugar went missing from the PWD godowns, Sarkariya commission was set up to probe the theft
Judge Sarkariya summoned Karunanidhi and asked him about the missing 27000 bags of sugar, Karunanidhi's cool reply was "Ants ate them "
The public Prosecutor and Judge virtually had a cardiac arrest on hearing it, they wanted time to recover from the shock, so they adjourned the hearing to the next day.
The next day Judge asked Karunanidhi " you say ants ate the 27000 gunny bags full of sugar, what happened to
the 27K gunny bags that had the sugar, for that Karunanidhi replied " Just because the termites ate the 27K gunny bags having sugar,Ants were able to eat the 27K bags of sugar " everyone in the court room went numb on hearing his reply
No wonder he got the tag " scientific chor"

Once upon a time, a robber lived in a forest. His name was Ratna. He used to rob people and also kill them. People were always afraid of him. No one dared to walk in that forest alone. One day Narada Muni was passing through the forest. Ratna came forward to attack him
People who used to see Ratna used to run for their lives. Narada Muni feared no person. He faced Ratna. Narada Muni asked him why he robbed and killed people. This is cruel deed. A person who kills others commits sin. He asked Ratna to stop his evil deeds. Ratna replied that if
he stopped his deeds, than how would he take care of his family. He had to support his old parents, his wife, and two children. How was he going to feed them? Nareada replied: “To look after your family you must work hard but no one in your family will pay for your bad deeds.

The Central Tibetan Schools Administration ( CTSA) under MHRD runs 67 schools for Tibetan school Children. These schools are teaching Tibetan history to the Children instead of India History and Culture. Are we falling into the sectarian Tibetan agenda
Instead of promorting Tibetan Buddhism,shouldn't India be promoting Himalayan Buddhism. Now Chinese are trying to get an upper hand by promoting Tibetan Buddhism, thereby China wants to influence the entire Himalayan range from Ladhak to Arunachal
Already they are trying to push
They want to include BOTI ( Tibetan language ) in Schedule VIII of the Indian Constitution. This is subtle insertion of Tibetan sectarian history, religion and culture in Govt of India Curriculum, this has already happened in Ladhak, now they want it in Arunachal
There is a saying in Tamil "நிழலின் அருமை வெயிலில் தெரியும்", means "one will realise the value of shade only under the hot sun"
Similarly one will know the value of the roads in India when one travels in countries like Bangladesh, Combodia, Gabon , Kazakhstan, Tajikistan etc
In India we can cover 1000 kms in a day by car, but it takes few days to cover 80 kms in some countries, vehicles get stuck in nasty roads , especially during rainy season roads become a quagmire
Just go back in time and recollect the condition of roads in India during Cong rule
Maslow's hierarchy is to attain the fifth level or stage: self-actualization.
Now that we have top class 4 track / 6 track roads ,we will naturally compare only with Autobahn roads , and we will never thank the Govt for bringing us from potholed filled roads to where we are today
