As posted by Nikhil aka Nikhilkulk on AugustFury:

The anti-reservation protests continue in Pune, after the success of the rally held on Sunday 14th May

The schedule for the rallies this sunday is as follows. There will be two routes for the rallies as follows:

1. Beginning at SNDT College, Kothrud Pune at 4.00 pm concluding at JM Road, Pune.
2. Beginning at B J Medical College, MG Road, Sahdu Vaswani Chowk, Pune also at 4.00 pm. Concluding at JM Road, Pune.

The rally is being conducted under the banner of “Youth for Equality”.
The rally is being organized by Active members of Rotaract Club, Pune and the Students and staff of College Of Engineering , Pune.

It is likely that more than 500 people from various fields, students, professionals, parents and concerned citizens would be joining. So if you too feel that its time to move ahead from the usual board room discussions, then here is your chance


Also there is one more rally on Sunday. Its from University circle to Corporation circle beginning at 10 AM. Though I dont have much details of this rally, as to who are the organisers of the rally. So lets get out and support these iniatitives.


PS: My personal expereience of the rally held on Sunday 14th May coming up soon.

Raghav... just turn what you said on its head and you will get a clear insight into where people's priorities truly lie.

its gr8 thread bt again questions arise of what to do?

it is truly said "small deed is much greater than tons of noblest

thought"

now if we want to make a change what can we do?

here r something dat even personaly i m trying to do and get a fair

amount of success and more importantly satisfaction

1 do not throw garbage on road if there is no dustbin keep in pocket

or ask hawker to arrange for dustbin

2 in holidays or sunday go out to slums and teach children something

share dreams and encourage them to see big dreams

3 if any one throw garbage on road than do point out that and ask

politely and urge them not to repeat that

4 whenever traffic police catch u not settle for less some ask d

reciept and pay full fine

5 try to avoid spitting on d road and urge ur friend to do same



this are small things bt has gr8 importance

" whn i see how gr8 outcomes comes from small things

i tempted to think there are no small things "








COMMON SENSE IS MOST UNCOMMON

politics in India has its own quirks like there was this anti-sivaji site on Orkut , there a huge furor in mumbai and the mumbai police got the IP adresses of the community owners aand members and arrested them, there is an absolute lack of free speech in our country , the government can ban anything at its whim and u hav so many acts which make a mockery of democracy assam armed forces act , defense act chattishgarh.Anyways i m anarchist and beleive all big govts are equally bad , as a normal citizen in negligible in these big units.
