" Brexit " -- Should Britain remain in the EU or leave ?

The british Prime Minister Mr. David Cameron, has asked his fellow citizens to vote against the proposal asking Britain to leave the European Union,in the forthcoming referendum on June 23rd. 

According to Cameron, Britain is more financially and regionally secured, if it remains inside the EU - financially because it can benefit from a common currency ( i.e. the Euro ) as well as conduct business with other 27 nations inside the European Union easily and with no regional boundaries ( according to Schangen agreement ). Free trade and commerce will continue to develop under such circumstances. 

However, Mr.Boris Johnson, former mayor of London, is of quite an opposite opinion. According to him, a Brexit, i.e. Britain's exit from the European Union is the only option which can help Britain and the britishers. He argues, in quite a controversial manner, comparing the concept of having a huge league of nations like the European Union, being similar to the idea conceived by Adolf Hitler and Musolini of having a huge empire, who rules everybody have to compulsorily obey and follow else face the punishment. He says " history has evidences of such empires failing in a big manner, in the end, although initially the idea of a big empire looks quite interesting and prosperous, in the beginning. He further adds that, it is advisable for all european nations to proceed ahead in their search for economic growth individually rather than in a group. Johnson, also said that Britain is the largest import-export partner of the EU amongst all its 28 nations. It contributes to a very large proportion of the total internal business of the European nations within themselves. Despite that, it doesnot have any concessions or special privileges, of which it is a deserving candidate of. Also, it is a big contributor of the total security budget of EU, yet there also it doesnot enjoy any special benefits or advantages. This is a very unjust situation, and hence Britain should wisely leave the European Union now. 

Let us see what happens on June 23rd. Do the people of UK, follow the advice of David Cameron or do they follow the advice of Boris Johnson ? It seems that if they follow that of Johnson, then David Cameron will have to resign as the Prime Minister, and that will pave the way for Boris Johnson to make a claim for the top job. However, if in case, the britishers donot vote for a Brexit and follow Cameron's advice, he will continue to remain in power, and the flambuoyant ex-mayor of London city, will have to remain silent,atleast for sometime, with his fingers crossed.

Back to "Unstable Governments" in India and its global implications

The General Election held every 5 years in India help its voters decide, their choice about who is going to lead it. It's the 7th largest country (in terms of area) in the world and the largest democracy in the world with a population of more than 1.4 billion people living there. It's one of the fastest growing economies of the world and recently in size it became the 3rd largest economy, overtaking the United Kingdom. Looking its increasing stature globally, these General Elections of India carry a massive impact in the geopolitical scenario of Asia Pacific as well as the entire world. So let's delve deeper into the results and what aftereffect it can have on a global scale.

His party the Bharatiya Janata Party came into power winning 281 parliamentary seats o

My opinion on "Barkha Vs Arnab"

Barkha Dutt is one of those distinguished journalists of India, on whom we should feel proud about. Her program "We the people" telecast at 8 pm every sunday is an award-winning program, which reflects her high intellectual capacities. However, when it comes to the kashmir issue, she suddenly starts behaving in a different manner. During her last visit to srinagar, she randomnly gave "hugs" to so many unknown people,which showed her hidden desire of remaining close to all kinds of muslims. Here the word "kinds" has been used to show that she behaves very well with anti-India seperatists like Yasin Malik, Syed Gilani also, which she shouldnot. She has the time to interview those hulligans and stone-pelters who received minor injuries during their scuffles with J&k police. But she doesnot have the time and decency to interview the kith and keens of our martyred jawans. She shows sympathy towards traitors like Kanaiya too. It is this kind of strange, in

Modi's biggest Achievement

I just saw a documentary on the condition of Muslims living inside India, since Modi became Prime Minister, 7 years ago. It showed that Modi's policies have put the entire population of more than 20 crore Muslims of India in a state of enforced passiveness. I knew it would be anti-India, trying to portray an evil picture of the things happening in India and it was. But let us see how Modi has handled the Muslims of his country in these 7 years. Before he became the PM, frequent riots used to take place in certain parts of the country especially in cities like Muzaffarabad, Bhopal, etc on a regular basis. Take any festival say Janmasthami - one could bet on the possibility of riots over there. That has completely stopped. Those among the Muslims who were violent, understood very clearly that if they start any riot, they will definitely get punished. That element of fear which was absent when the Congress party was ruling at the Centre, has now been firmly established. Hats of to Mod
