Revamped SETC is neat



The Thiruvalluvar buses in 80s & 90s enjoyed a special status among people of Tamilnadu. These long journey buses were famous for their big convenient seats, long buses and importantly tokenized reservation system. They lost their status when the maintenance became poor and local omni buses were fast and reliable than Thiruvalluvar.
People travelling from cities now a days use the omni private bus services. Many do not know that the good old Thiruvalluvar transportation is back with a new avatar "SETC". Especially in the last year, they had come up with Ultra Deluxe buses (hi-tech air buses). They have very decent push back seats, with seats arranged in pairs. The engines of these buses are good, as judged from the way it overtakes other buses and the speed pickup. As the buses are new, they are neat and clean. No 'Standing' is admitted in these buses.
Most of all, the cost of the ticket is at least Rs.100 lesser than the leading private omni bus service.
Thanks to the Govt transportation department for revamping a vital service. Wishing a gud luck to grow. Hopefully the services are done properly and the buses ply at good conditions through out. Lets watch and see.

Make-up ur mind


I have seen versions people say in movies "Im in a bad state of mind and sweetest fruits tastes bitter, ice feels hotter".
I have not realised it till I faced such state of mind and the mental mood.
In such bad states, u feel even ur favourite songs, hateful; eating ur favourite dishes becomes a burden; and u dont like to watch ur favourite actors and comedians; the best jokes u enjoyed looks like a piece of waste; because of all these, u would like to spend a solitary life.
To come out of this, the only solution is "Makeup ur mind". Think of the jobs u have in ur life, think of responsiblities that u need to uphold, think of urselves and others... make up ur mind.
Digress ur mind away from the activity that made u in such a state of mind... Life would look simpler.. U would start doing things normal and easy..
Not to mention, "Saying is easy.. Doing is not that easy" :)

Develop Yourself. Share the Development. There u see... India developed !

Happy B'day India !


In the freedom fighting days, people died for the country, not caring about their home and children. I am now calling for the reverse. Care for urself, care for ur home, and automatically u begin to care for ur country, because the patriotic spirit is always in our blood. It is obsolete or a old idea to induce patriotism in ourselves.

In order to see a developed nation, First develop yourself , morally, potentially, in ur field of work. Try to show off to the world ur cultural heritage and national pride, where ever u can, on the way of ur achievements. Current leaders like Abdul Kalam, business giants like NR Narayanamurthy are now represented as Icons of modern India. They had certainly contributed to the national development. Did they have national development as the only goal, when they were in struggling years? No; National development might not be in their mind at all. They were into self development. They raised their individuality, potentiality, their family, then the company, and hence the nation now. Once u have become a developed You, try to share with the nation. Sharing the success can be done in a number of ways like paying proper taxes, helping others to succeed, helping organizations to fight against poverty, and other social illness.

Develop yourselves, Share the development with fellow citizens, And U see a developed India !

"Do or Die" days are gone. Now "Do and Die".

Jai Hind !
