"Consumer is the King of the market" - Nothing but a mockery

Since childhood from school social science books to the marketing thesis we have been told that Consumer is always the king of the market. The market is working only because of consumers. Is it really true for today? Think of it for a while and reply to your own selves. The world has become digital and so people. The money has gone virtual and so the people. We are too much running after the virtual pleasures of purchasing that off late we have become oblivious of the hardships which one can face amidst this. I do not wish to go too far and would like to quote my own example here. Online shopping is really simple and convenient and I am a part of this ecommerce game since long. Recently I had purchase a mobile phone worth 15,900/- from snapdeal after getting to offer of an instant 10% over my axis debit card. When my payment was complete I came to know I was cheated and I did not get any discount. I though well this is not the end of the world and cancelled the payment which shou...

AN ANGEL ON EARTH

God is great!! HE has formulated the universe in such a way that everyone requires a shelter to get covered, to feel secured, to take guidance etc. Be it a living thing or a non-living thing, a cover is required. For example; four walls when covered by roof is called house. For each and every person a thing a roof has been created before its birth. Far beyond the seven skies one day GOD decided to send one soul on earth. The soul nervously asked,” Dear God, I have many angles here to look after, If I go down I will be alone and no one is there to take my care. I don’t know anyone there, who will help me there? Who will provide me with my necessities?” God politely answered, “Dear soul, Don’t you trust me. Few years back I already sent an angle for you who will cater to all your needs. Do not worry and be relaxed.” God continued, “The angle will keep you in her womb for nine months and when you will be born she will get a new life. She will smile on your laugh; she will weep for...

Stress Free Living

Glamourous!! This adjective very aptly defines today's world in just 9 letters. No one would oppose to my words that people are running after all the glittery things that they come across. Show off, superiority over others, etc has become quite common. Man's soul is sandwiched among this pompous attitude of his own. He has forbidden his inner happiness at the cost of nothing but STRESS. Now when a person say, "I am stressed", he has found out a few ways to beat the stress in his life. He has found out ways to fizzle out the burden that he bores everyday on his head. To name a few going for a morning walk, attending yoga classes have become common ways through which a man feels relieved. These are no doubt good ways to relieve a person's tension but these ways help the man for a time being and them again he enters the same environment where he feels stressed out. Stress has become a major component of one's life. A child is stressed to get good mark...

Making A Difference.

A very effective advertisement caught my attention a few days back. A candidate applies for a job in certain foreign country, while being interviewed he was asked that when can he reach the workplace. He mentioned the date but on that very day elections were supposed to be held. When he was asked about his vote, he said, "One vote will not make any difference". The interviewer replied, "When you cannot make a difference to your own country, how would you make a difference to ours". This sentence bound me to ponder upon. I asked myself , "Out of such a large population, how many of them think like this gentleman?" If everyone starts thinking the same, how would our country get a deserving leader? Our electoral system believes in the power of majority, but what would be the value of that majority when majority of our county's population doesn't come forward to cast their votes? While I was asking these questions to myself, a statistics popped on m...

He told, "This is what we call life, sometimes smooth, sometimes calm, sometimes damp & sometimes warm. Finally what remains is EXPERIENCE, the way I have more water to serve the nice!!!!"

No Funds for Bandh

Today morning as soon as I cursored at the front page of The Indian Express it said; "Bandh cripples India". This is true. This Bandh was the most powerful since UPA came to power at centre. This Bandh costed India around 10,000 crores and the opposition promises for more such commotion in future. "Yeh to trailer hai, picture abhi baki hai mere dost" was the comment of Nitin Gadkari, the BJP leader, on the Bandh. In the name of AAM ADMI, the politicians are hurting the AAM AADMI only. Lakhs of people make their living through daily earnings. Did the opposition parties even think once about those poor people before initiating this BANDH? Even if the opposition are raising their voices against this price hike, are they ready with the alternative solutions to this problem? These people just want to play their politics, they just want to humiliate the current party in power and prove their mettle. Everyone is talking about AAM AADMI only, who is this AAM AADMI? A ...
