Kailash And Mansarover
                                                                   Kailas is the most sacred place for the Hindu. There are religious and scientific reasons for the same. Hindu believes that that their God Shiva lives on Kailas and from where rivers like Indus, Brahmaputra, Sutlej and Karnali  having starting point. Those rivers makes India rich and prosperous. Besides that the great Hindu culture  developed around those water rich Rivers. Therefore Hindu religion is  indebted to Kailas and Mansarover. It is said that one of the family members of 'Lord Rama a King Bhagirath brought great river ' Ganges' from Himalaya to the plains of India through his great efforts. These things have made Kailas and Mansarover very pious for the Hindus.  In short all water resources of India are flowing from Himalayan region of Tibetan side where Kailas and Mansarover  are situated.
                                                                      The Height of 'Mount  Kailas' is 22028 feets and it has circumference of 48 kilometers. Every Hindu who visit Kailas makes attempt to do' Prikrama' of  that Most Pious Mountain. They believe that after death that is the best place to merge with 'God' and Nature. Even  after winning the war of'' Maharashtra'  Pandav also went to Icy Himalayan Region for their ultimate destination .

                                                                        Mansarover with circumference of 88 kilometers is at  feet of Mount Kailas.  The maximum depth of the Mansarover is  300 feets with  surface area is 320  Square  Kilometers.

Afghanistan - Ancient Gandhar
                                                           Afghanistan has very friendly relation with India since ancient time. Afghani people are very noble and were friendly with Indian people. Ravindranath Tagore wrote very interesting story 'Kabuliwala' where in he drew a picture loving relationship between  Noble Afghani Pathan and Young Innocent Bengali Girl. The story has became very popular as Afghani Pathans are known for their Clean and Loving Characters.

                                                          However it is very unfortunate that the land of loving and noble people have constantly remained the land of violent civil wars. Besides that even Afghan Rulers have influenced the Indian history and Culture. In the Famous war of Mahabharata Shakuni and Gandhari played very Negative roles. Shakuni, and Gandhari were the Prince and Princess of Gandhar(i.e. Of Afghanistan)  receptively. Shakuni had grievance that Kuruvansh  arranged the marriage of his sister Gandhari with their blind prince Dhutarashtra through manipulations . Therefore in order to take revenge he misguided his nephew Duryodhan which led to the war of Mahabharata. Besides that all the aggression on India came through Afghanistan. Mohamed Gazanvi and Shahbuddin Gori attacked India and they looted and destroyed  Temples and places of cultures. The destruction  of Somnath Temple is one of the glaring example of their destructive activities.  The Afghani Emperor Babar who attacked India and established the  Moghal Dynasty in India. This are the historical facts but the relationship  between Indian and Afghani people were always cordial as today.

                                                        Afghanistan a Country with shape of ' Tree Leaf 'is having a population  of 3.55 Crores. They are miserable since long time.  Some time back  Russia and Britain were fighting war in Afghanistan for occupying the same. Thereafter  there  was a struggle against the occupation of communist Russia  from the  year 1979 to 1989.  The Mujaheddin movement started between 1889 to 1892 under which civil war continued. However in the year 1996 the Taliban established their regime with the help of Pakistan and Western powers.  Asama Bin Laden of Al  Kayada  also joined with Taliban  Government of Afghanistan.

                                                         USA took Military Action against Taliban regime of Afghanistan as they found the hands of 'Al Kayada' and 'Taliban' in the 9/11 destruction of 'World Trade Center, New York. The American Military  removed 'Taliban Regime' and Established Democratic Afghan Government. However ' Taliban' is still active and fighting Gorilla warfare in Afghanistan.  The present violent Civil war in Afghanistan has made  poor Afghani very  miserable.
                                                          It is also fact that no body can conquer the Mountainous and difficult Terrine of Afghanistan completely and forever.

Indian Government Own Banks
                                                                              Indian government own Banks are in very bad shape due to the very high NPA of Rs 8.96 Lakhs Crores.  The excellent banking system of India has now become the most ineffective and faceless. It is public  money which is being taken to ride. Therefore the strong and effective measures are the need of the hours.
                                                                             The main reason for such condition is the Banking recruitment system which is  faulty.  The Private Sectors Bank were use to recruit people on the basis of not only on academic qualification and intelligence but they were  use to scrutinize the background of candidates and his character. This is necessary as person working in the bank has to deal with cash/ money in the day to day transactions.  In short Bankers first requirement is honesty and strong characters. The government now recruiting  bank staff on basis of passing entrance examination without examining the above mentioned quality. That is how Indian banks are in very bad financial conditions.

                                                                      Indian banks are not having only high 'NPA'(i.e. Non Performing Assets) but lots of frauds in the system as reported under-
1)Central Bank of India had frauds of Rs 437 Crores in the year 2014.
2 Bank of Maharashtra had Rs  836 crores frauds in the year 2017
3) Vijaya and Canara Bank had frauds of Rs 290 Crores in the year 2017
4) It is reported that  Nirav Modi and Mehul Chokshi had committed the frauds amounting Rs 14000 Crores with the Punjab National Bank in the year 2018.
5)There were also frauds of about Rs 150 crores in Oriental Bank of Commerce and IDBI Bank in the year 2011.

                                                                     Besides that Government Banks have written off Bank loans of about 3.16 Lakhs Crores and out of which only RS 44000 Crores were recovered. This only show that how grave is the financial conditions of the Government Banks. The immediate strong action is the need of the time and that is to be done before it is late.

Rastriya Swayamsevak Sangh -RSS
                                                               RSS was formed by K B Hedgewar in the year 2025 at Nagpur, Maharashtra.  It is a Hindu Paramilitary volunteer Organization. The main mission of 'RSS' is to unite Hindus. It has about 5.6 million members with 56859 Shakhas  (As per 2016 figures). It has its roots in doing public services for poor and needy.
                                                                RSS Members does not take part in politics unless they are specifically permitted by their organization. That is how it has now become the  parent organization of the Bhartiya Janata Party which is a ruling party of  India. It is to be noted that each and every RSS member goal is to serve and uplift the Society.  Therefore the success of 'BJP' is also attributed to the ground work done by RSS workers.
                                                                RSS  believes in equality of all and do not incriminate anybody on the basis Cast and Clan. Long back Mahatma Gandhi visited then RSS headquarters at Nagpur and asked its Head then ' Do you enroll Backward Class and Untouchables in your Organization?  RSS Head replied him ' You may ask this question directly to our  members'. Thereafter Gandhiji  himself inquired with RSS members and confirmed that people from all Cast and Clan are enrolled therein.  They are all treated equally. He was very much impressed then with with RSS Cader.

                                                                However on the Assassination of the Mahatma Gandhi RSS became very controversial and it was also banned by the government for some time.   RSS has always remained controversial as it was a close Organization. Therefore it is said that' It is very difficult to understand RSS but very easy to misunderstand it'.
                                                                Bala Saheb Deoras, RSS, Head brought Reforms in RSS through  Seva, Sampark , and Publicity. He opened up the organization through Sampark of Swayamsevaks.  I got opportunity to look in to the working of  RSS under their campaign of ' Seva and Sampark'. I met a RSS Grass Root level worker and Stalwart Shri Narayanabhai Bhandari(Nana). He who established 'Vidyarthi Parishad' in Gujarat. i.e. A Youth Wing of RSS.  Narendra Modi Prime Minister and BJP President Amit Shah were also active worker of Vidyarthi Parishad.  I show Nana  working for the upliftment of Middle Class, Tribal People and  Slum Dwellers . This is only to show how RSS people are working for needy and poor people of  India. 
                                                                The present head of the RSS Mohan Bhagwat  went further and gave slogan that ' No Hindu Rashtra without Muslims. ' He also extended hands for the cooperation of Indian Muslims. Mohan Bhagwat further said that ' All Religions are Equal'. He believes that some of the thoughts of RSS are time out and no longer relevant. He agrees with the view of Mahatma Gandhi  in this matter i.e. ' If there is contradiction in his thought then they should go according to the latest one.'

                                                                 The fast changes are being introduced in RSS by  inviting prominent persons from different fields to mold the thinking of RSS workers. The Former President of India,  Pranav Mukerji addressed  the RSS gathering very recently. Even Congress President Rahul Gandhi may be invited to address the RSS gathering. These are the glaring examples of changing mood of RSS and its desire to open its gates for new ideas and views. It will bring the great  changes in the outlook of RSS . i.e. To suit the needs of time.
                                                                Mohan Bhagwat appears to be in mood to follow the view of Former Russian Leader Gorbachev i.e. ' If not me, who? If not now,

when?

Alzheimer
                                                                                          There are several old age diseases but  Alzheimer  is the most deadliest among all. It makes a person not only disabled but also makes one  more or less dead for all practical purpose. What is a use of life without knowledge of it?
                                                    The most powerful man of America President Ronald Reagan suffered from Alzheimer after his retirement.  He could not recognized any body at the advance stage of Alzheimer.  He was use to be taken by his grand son for a walk or for change on Santa Monica Beach, LA,California. This shows how much deadly is the effects of Alzheimer?
                                                 
                                                    There are 5. 7 Million  people are suffering  from Alzheimer diseases in America.  It is expected to reach the figure of 14 Million  by 2050. In the year 2018 America had spent $277 Billion for giving treatment for Alzheimer. There is no specific Medicine for its treatment except the medicines for its symptoms.

                                                   It is reported that High Blood Pressure affect Dementia because it damages the fragile arteries which deliver the blood to the brain and other organ. It may be one of the reasons which is  leading to Alzheimer. The Meditation, Long Walk,  Maintenance of Weight, Moderate Drinking, Healthy Diets,and Non Smoking may help in preventing Alzheimer. In short one requires to change his life style in order avoid such disease. However the Research also  reported that the Alzheimer may have  roots in  gene of a person. Therefore people with family history of Alzheimer have to be more cautious in this matter.

Democracy and Autocracy
                                                                   In Democracy it is a government of the people by the people and of the people. Democracy also gives Liberty, Accountability, Economic Opportunity. While in Autocracy Government Control Media,  All powers are Centralized, Courts are being Manipulated and Protests are Crushed.
                                                                   Democracy is some time Inefficient because Group Decisions makes it slow. The simpler Systems in democracy increases  Drug crisis, Mass migration, Criminal activities and Terrorism. While Autocracy brings easy Changes, Faster Communication and Problems are solved faster.

                                                                   It was presumed that fall of communist Russia democracy will very much flourished all over world but 39% of the world population is still under authoritarian rule.  Venezuela is a country which is facing hunger, economic hardship and people unrest. The political leadership has manipulated election, and trying to crush the dissidents. This is one of the instances of failure of Autocratic rule. In Gambia  22 years of Dictatorial rule failed and restrictions on media and personal freedom are removed. Tunisia is under Autocracy  since eight years but it is still suffering from  poverty and corruption. This shows that Autocracy cannot be successful with its plus point shown as above. However, countries like Bolivia, Nicaragua, Turkey, Hungary, Poland, Philippines, Russia and China  are drifting towards Autocracy which is the red signal for Democracy.

                                                                   
                                                                   Democracy is successful in USA, India, Columbia, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Armenia, and New Zealand  in spite of some of the drawbacks in the system.  The 60% of world population is under Democratic System. Hence it is not to show which system is better but to show that all systems carries its own Merits and Liabilities. However  Democracy with its own deficiencies preserve and protect the finer things of Human Life i.e. Right of Expression, Human Dignity and Liberty.
