Parveen Bhai, manne lage hai thodi galti ho gayi hai aapse (see entries at rank 11,14,19 etc). GDP is measured as nominal or PPP (purchasing power parity). Nominal GDP is the value of all final goods and services produced within a nation in a given year converted in dollars. PPP is...

Dev Sir, Please go to the following link to see the college rankings (India Today also ranks them annualy though I could not dig it out). It doesn't seem to have Vellore in top 20. http://www.rediff.com/money/2005/jun/28spec.htm -Kismat

I think parents do make suggestions about the career path you should choose. They have an inclination towards more conventional options (mainly medicine and engg) because till some time back those were best bets to earn a living in India. And personally I am very grateful to my parents for their...

Rakesh, I am in Hampshire, give me a shout if you need any help. Cheers, Kismat

Slightly arrogant and immature I think he comes across as an arrogant and immature individual. His statement that he could have been PM had he wanted and the body posture during his speech in congress plenary session clearly shows that (he used very humble language in the speech but his posture...

hahahahaha..... classic.

Hamendra, The problem is towards the end when you take the square root and equate. square(A) = sqaure(B) only means that |A| = |B| (i.e. either A=B or A=-B) and not A = B ( for example square of 2 and -2 is same). In the case you have taken, A = -B is correct (A=3-5/2 and...

Neeraj, Though people living abroad may not go out of their way to contribute (even people living in their motherland don't) but they do contribute in different ways, most obvious being the money they remit back home. Vinod, I do believe that we behave differently on...

Devender, Send your resume to me kismat_singh@lycos.com. I have some friends working in that domain, I will try. Cheers,

Very Well said Rajendra Sir. Just wanna add that Rupee hasn't just fallen against Canadian $ but also against US $ and currently it seems to have done more good for us than bad. - Since the oil prices are much lower than Aug/Sep prices, it hasn't hit the imports so badly. - Its helping the IT...

Dear members, While its good to know about our possible history but lets not demean ourselves by trying to find link with anything foreign. Aur jaisa Sampuran Singh ji ne kaha hai, we are Indians first and then anything else. Cheers,

Ashok, I believe the question is definitely worth discussing. No one is expecting you to justify your decision but understandings each other's perspective may very well help people refine their "metric points". aap nahin to koi mere jaisa informed decision le payega :) Cheers,

Poonam ji, its not just about the contribution to the motherland but to look at things as a whole especially in context of improving (though slowly) opportunities in India. And in the end what matters is how an individual look at things and its very much a personal decision. mere ko nahi pata ki...

Dev Sir, Thanks for bringing this topic up. This is a kind of topic which can easily flare up the emotions. I will try and put the pros and cons of working abroad forever (I don't claim that I have covered all of them). Pros: 1. Quality of life: The quality of life in the developed countries...

Ha Ha Ha.... good one

Dev Sir, I do agree with you that high expectations and low tolerance are a problem. Marriage needs to considered as sacrosanct and people at first place should get married only if they are 100% commited to make it work (don't know how to measure commitment though ;)... sorry for the PJ). Both...

Mera Khayal I believe that there is nothing wrong in boy/girl having more say in deciding the person they want to get married to. The real problem is that the girl is not accepted as part of the family, she is always treated as "secondary" member of the family (atleast for first few decades)...

Awesome one I think the mallus have done a fantastic job in this. Cheers, Kismat
