Ram Bansal I have written articles on a number of article sites, and have contribute more than thousand articles. But in my experience, all are unfair to writers in their own ways. Firstly, their payout thresholds are high and they don't allow authors to reach them...

Ram Bansal If the children are not well educated and mannered, parents are to be blamed in the first place. But since parents too are problematic and too busy with problems of survival, they shouldn't be blamed as per our social norms. Still, they are responsible for...

Supreme Court advocate thinks good girls dont get raped

vanny @vandana7 (100617) • India 18 Jan 13

I think I believe him. I mean which good girl would want to study and work? Good girls dont work, they remain good by becoming a burden on their family for dowries. There is no litmus test for good girls, right?...

Ram Bansal Term 'good girl' is highly subjective. The Supreme court advocate may be affording to keep his girls locked in his home for safety from his clients and opponents. But practical life exposes all of us, including men, women and boys, to hazards of crimes which...

Has media unwittingly made rapists realize the problems with laws in India?

vanny @vandana7 (100617) • India 13 Jan 13

There is an alarmingly high rate of rape reports after December 16, 2012. I wonder if these cases have surfaced with the hope that the government would do something about rape laws, or because rapists realize that whatever the...

Ram Bansal Media has played their role well in highlighting the legal loopholes and it has not provided any advantage to the culprits or biased minds of the judges. Unless we realize what is wrong we can't remedy. This way, we have taken the first step of realization for...

vanny @vandana7 (100617) • India 11 Jan 13

Ok..we have laws... There is nobody to follow them. We have public toilets that some agency tries to keep clean and collects charges for keeping them clean. But the truck drivers, and homeless on the street are not going to use...

Ram Bansal Until I was an urban citizen, my views were like those of official babus and social philosophers in a habit of saying ideologically without practical considerations on open defecation. After returning to the rural life about 12 years back, I have lived the...

Ram Bansal Begging has developed as a respected profession by the beggars at least and they do their business at their own terms, not of the donors. And many beggars are richer than middle income persons. In real terms, everyone expecting a donation to live on is a...

Ram Bansal I think age has nothing to do with good or bad manners or compassion for others. It is mindset of the person, built over the years under her particular circumstances, that matter in how the person behaves with others in the society.

Ram Bansal Every nutrition after digestion reaches the cells of the body. Commercials are just saying that to boost their sales, meaning that only their product reaches the cells.
