Positivity, healthcare and responsibility of the citizenry!
A modern civilised nation is governed by rule of law and is held together as a society by cultural imperatives, codes of collective morals and ethics. It relies on shared history and common future aspirations to keep the nation together, united as one force. A large enough group of people can’t remain united without any…
India floating lifeless!
Freedom fighter, original thinker, prolific writer, a true statesman and also, fortunately, the first PM of Independent India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, in his seminal work, “Discovery of India” gives an account of his travel to the far and wide corners of the land in the pre-independence era, in most of these excursions he would hold…
India, an evaporating state!
India today magazine on its cover called India a “Failed state”. Shekhar Gupta in his national interest, a weekly opinion piece called India a “flailing state”. I would like to humbly disagree with both these characterisations, would instead like to say that in my view the Indian state is an ‘evaporating’ one. You may say…
Remote work and urban planning!
(Note: The changes that we speak of in this article is expected to happen in the course of the next 10 years!) Workplace of the future (a part of which is already visible) is no longer going to be a ‘physical space‘ but a ‘network‘ that enables the staff to connect with the resources needed…

Poor, the lesser Indian!
The bloody virus has plagued every aspect of our lives, in ways that we do not even fully comprehend, yet. Our exploratory endeavors educate us of something new, progressively incriminating about the pathogen- we lose to it, every day! But as we’re wired to suppose – we keep reminding ourselves of the need to be…
Action in curious times!
We’re in confusing times, making choices have never been more taxing, as a result, more often than not, we find ourselves attaching the cart before the horse. Humans have never quite known the future when I say this I discount the audacious claims that the astrologers make. We have, however, mastered the art of basing…
Co-existing with COVID19!
कारवाँ गुज़र गया, गुबार देखते रहे (Gopaldas, ’Neeraj’) Yes the Virus is here, yes it is highly contagious and yes it is deadly! So what do we do? Fight, Freeze, or Flee? I’m afraid to inform you ‘Fleeing’ is not an option. You gotta either confront the virus or hibernate into oblivion, perhaps…
