Yes. You read it correct. The Korean War has 'officially' ended with both North and South Korea signing a peace treaty. The Korean War was a war between North Korea, supported by its communist allies, and South Korea, with its principal support coming from the United States of America. But you all must be wondering- "hadn't the Korean War already ended way back in 1953?" Actually the answer is NO. In 1953, Both North and South Korea had signed an armistice. The armistice was only a cease fire between the military forces, rather than an agreement between the two governments. The peace treaty was signed just a few days ago, thereby ending the state of hostility between the two nations. (Courtesy by Google Images) Now, North Korea has said, or vowed, to shut down the country's nuclear test sites and also to open the process to experts and journalists from South Korea and United States of America. The North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un has revealed plans...

A new cabinet has taken oath on Saturday. Now you all may be wondering- "Which cabinet is he taking about? There are a few more days left for the Karnataka election". No, I am not talking about the Karnataka government. I am talking about a shadow cabinet that has been formed in Kerala.  There is not much reported by the media about it, as usual, but the shadow cabinet has been formed with the aim of monitoring government decisions and making it 'public-friendly'. The most interesting fact is that it is composed not by any politicians or run by any party, but by the civilians.  Now all of you might be wanting to know more about 'Shadow Cabinet', so I have looked up in the internet and found out what it really is, so as to give you a more clearer idea of what it actually is- " A shadow cabinet is an alternative cabinet formed with the aim of monitoring government decisions. Often the Opposition comprises a shadow cabinet, but in this case, ...

The Modi Government has leased the iconic Red Fort to Dalmia Bharat Group. The group has bought it for a whooping sum of 25 crores for a period of five years in the name of conserving and developing it. Now, it is the government's responsibility to maintain the historic monuments of the country. They have started taking huge amounts of money from us in the form of taxes. But none of it is being used for 'conserving monuments' and the monuments are being sold to corporate firms, who eventually starts using these monuments for profitable activities.  😡

It is both shocking and heartbreaking to hear the news about the death of Asifa, the eight year old who was brutally raped. But even after this, the public is supporting those rapists witb religious slogans. The public is literally blinded of all these things. Dear 'Government of India', you had time to change the currency, introduce a brand new taxation system called GST, reduce corruption at administrative levels, but didn't you have the time to take action against these rapists? Remember there isn't much time for 2019...

It looks like everyone has forgotten about Madhu, a tribal, who was killed for stealing food to satisfy his hunger pangs. There is neither any news about the accused in the media channels nor are there any more major investigations being done by the police. I am pretty sure that either of the two might have happened- one, the accused people have fled the state or the country, or two, they have settled the issue through money. If there was a celebrity involved in this case, by this time, the court proceedings would be going on. Everything would be happening quickly. Even the media would be following it up every minute. They would start their own investigation and bring out exclusives every minute. But the Madhu case is no more sensational for these 'sensationalists'. These 'sensationalists' are constantly behind new cases, in order to increase their channel rating. They are treating this issue as if it has taken place decades ago. They are all now behind Vijay Mally...

Recently, North Korea, or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea(DPRK), have been testing out nuclear warheads and other deadly military equipments. When asked why they are doing so, they said they want to attain equilibrium with the United States of America (USA). Now, think about this. The first world war took place because of military superiority. Britain was a superior country in terms of military power. Germany wanted to achieve equilibrium with Britain. What I am trying to say is even DPRK is following the path of Germany of that time. If this issue continues, there is going to be serious issues which can even wipe out human beings from Earth. The United Nations Security Council should not only take strict action against DPRK, but should also make necessary decisions and  put it in the form of a resolution that all countries, irrespective of its size or population maintain an army as prescribed by the Security Council. In this way, we can prevent a possible Third world ...

Hurricane Irma. This particular hurricane is said to be one of the worst hurricane ever recorded, originating from the Atlantic Ocean. Irma has already hit the Bahamas, Puerto Rico and Cuba, causing huge destructions. It is set to strike Florida, with 5.6 million people already evacuated from Florida. The authorities say, " this is one hurricane in which if you don't get out of its way, its gonna kill you." Now, the people who are going to be hit by the hurricane should make sure they have sufficient supply of fresh clean water and food. They should also evacuate from that place and find a safe place to protect themselves. A kind message to the media- please make some awareness about the hurricane and its status so that the people get some idea about the hurricane, instead of simply blabbering about some political issues all day.
