Kashmir: Time to shut the case!

I am writing about Kashmir conflict for the first time, and I am also not very informed about it. But still, I know that it is affecting my country in negative ways and also we're claiming that - the entire state of Kashmir is ours. This territorial conflict has led to major disputes and also wars between India and Pakistan. If you want to know more about Kashmir conflict, kindly click  Kashmir Conflict I won't take much of your time as writing about Kashmir dispute may enrage many people at the same time. But frankly, I think we had enough of Kashmir dispute. Well, I don't know if claiming it is fair or unfair but, it is affecting our country. Speaking about the dark side of the Kashmir dispute, India and Pakistan had 3 wars due to it, India is spending immense amount of money on just maintaining the Kashmir, and also our army men are going through a lot of troubles/problems due to it. Indian government as well as Pakistani government have claimed each other for carryin...

Ways to improve safety measures in schools

Murder of a 7-year-old boy in a private school In the Gurugram branch of Ryan International School, a 7-year-old school boy was found murdered .  Maybe for the first time in my life, I am literally searching for words, making up my mood to write about child abuse but still, I am not able to, after hearing the above mentioned news.

When I was in school, our school used to conduct seminars on safety of children and sometimes, once in a full moon, our teachers used to enlighten us about this growing i...

Speaking about Blue Whale (game)! (The Killer Game)

Image
Let me first introduce you to the game if you're not aware about it. Blue Whale (game) is an internet game that consists of series of tasks assigned to players by administrators during a 50-days period, with a final challenge instructing the players to commit suicide. If a player tries to leave the game incomplete without (dying), the curators (the one who assigns the tasks to a particular player) threatens to kill him or her. So, this is Blue Whale (game) which has created a lot of hype in India and players have actually taken their own lives. I still remember it was evening time, I was checking news feeds and suddenly name of this game flashed on my mobile screen. After reading the entire report by Times of India, I was shocked just like many others. It was hard to swallow the fact: that a teenager jumped from a tall building just to complete the last task of the game (last task is to kill yourself). He also went online for few minutes before jumping off the building. The e...
