After Maggi heartache, switch to traditional Indian snacks

My phone has been popping up with all the messages of Maggi jokes and Maggi's sudden demise from the market. We have a habit to hide our sentiments by joking on such issues. When people get shocked they remove their stress by joking about that issue. Long back when Maggi had been questioned people did not leave worshipping it as it was the instant solution to reduce our hunger pangs, because of its tagline bas 2 minute mei.
Now that the Lead content being found in Maggi ( and please don't associate it with pencil's lead), people may become much cautious about the instant food making products.
I suggest everyone better stop pondering upon the Maggi news and better get going with our traditional Indian snacks like Poha, Upma, Pakodas etc. Although these snacks do take some time to make but they are tastier than an instant noodle and certainly don't cause threat to our health. I think its high time for people to move over instant cooking products and switch over to some tasty Indian healthy snacks. We obviously cannot ignore the fact that Indians snacks do relieve our taste buds as compared to an instant noodle.
It has been observed that people have switched over to instant food cooking due to their busy schedule and also having less knowledge about cooking real food in the kitchen. Its high time that people should pay attention to their food eating habits and food products they bring in their kitchen. Certainly jokes on Maggi will not bring peace to your grieving heart which pounds for instant food products. :P  

NET and SET Examinations, is it enough to pass them?

As the NET and SET examinations are approaching most of the budding examinees are trying their various study approaches to pass this highly esteemed examination. Most of the times it is seen that months and years of hard work and some times sheer luck in the cut off merit list, one can achieve a NET and SET examination certificate.
A recent argument on the permission to consider Ph.D. as equivalent to the NET qualified had been debated and disagreed by many well known educationists. They evaluated that  Ph.D. cannot assess a person's ability to teach students.
Although NET and SET examinations are said to be most useful for the budding college teachers to get a good job or an opportunity of research fellowship in University in their respective streams, there should also be an aim of updating and acknowledging a teachers knowledge regularly. This will help the teachers to be updated on the current issues in their stream but also to teach the tech savvy students in a better way.
It is constantly observed that the teachers are thorough with theoretical knowledge but do not pay attention to the practical skills.  This has made teachers to lag behind the fast changing technologies and technologically able students.
It is difficult to assess and prepare all  the teachers for such a challenge but such a skill based scheme should be proposed which will obviously be the first step in improving teaching in  higher education standards in the country!!!

Why I hate Hindi serials?

I come home tired and sleepy, n there is my mum sitting and watching T.V.with her favorite T.V.  serial telecasting.....oh and actually its the first  among the favorite t.v. serial, there are rest of the shows too, which she watches right from 6.00 to 10.00 pm. :(
I have been through this dilemma now for 10 years. Before that mumma liked to watch what we did but after this tv serial bug has bitten my poor mumma,  she cant help watching them and asking for more.
They(tv serials) usually have patterns. The lady has lost her memory and her husband is trying to recover her memory and i am damn sure when the lady recovers her memory her husband may loose his so that the serial could continue for another 100 episodes. There are saas bahu serials where there  is a mother -in-law always praising her Gopi bahu (well that's something new....usually we don't see this character in mother in- laws), but there is endless shouting by the lady meri gopi bahu ,meri gopi bahu. You may not believe it once i was sharing my problems at work with mumma and she gave me example of gopi bahu that how she solved the problems in her life.
I am damn sure there maybe thousands of victims like me, who are deeply   injured by these Hindi serials and want their mumma back. Overall i want to see my mumma happy and hence none of us disturb her while watching.  But too much hindi serials are injurious to health and they don't have a statutory warning also....that's the sad part of it :(
