Tujhse ishq na karte to bhala kya karte,

roz ibadat karte phir bhi gunah karte...!!

India, a land of J C Bose, H J Bhabha, C V Raman, S Ramanujam, Rabindra Nath Tagore, R K Narayan, and many more great personalities in the field of Science, Mathematics, Literature; but it's shameful to know that India has the largest number of illiterate people in the world. According to UNESCO's Education For All (EFA) Global Monitoring Report 2013-14, India has the highest population of illiterates, i.e. 287 million or 37% of the total population of such people across the world. Just imagine more than one-third of the population of illiterate people in the world are Indians. What a worthy achievement in our 67 years of Independence! In the words of Gandhiji, illiteracy is India's shame and sin. The report said that insufficient financing is one of the main obstacles in achieving education for all. Aid to education fell by $1 billion in 2010 and 2011 in developing countries; said EFA 2013-14. These facts cannot be denied and hid under the curtains. Today illiteracy has become a major challenge facing our nation. We have also voted illiteracy as the biggest concern for India, with 18.78% votes in #India4India survey.

I Just Followed My Heart...

It was mid-august. I was sitting inside a cab heading Noida. I had to buy some materials needed for my final year project. I was thinking about the day in my college, about a girl, smiling and hiding it from the fellow passengers. Just then, I received a call. 

"Hi!"

"Hi! I just want to say thanks to you for helping me out with that stuff. Those problems were really tough. I couldn't have managed to solve them on my own."

"You're welcome! Even I am glad to help you."

It was the last day for submitting our assignments. It would add to our scores in the semester. If anyone failed to submit it, he/she would lose 10 marks in the internals. I submitted the assignments a day before. And that day I helped out this girl in solving and finally submitting them.
