What is your contribution to society?

Today while coming from office, I got stuck in traffic jam. For good 30 minutes I was there standing there. Frustratingly I increased volume of music inside the car. I blamed government for such pathetic infrastructure and lack of traffic police. Suddenly I observed that few people were driving the car on wrong side. Those were over smart guys. The traffic jam which was about to get over, further got complicated because of those over smart guys. How come people can become so selfish?
I was thinking that though I followed all the rules still I was suffering because of wrong doing of others.
I was trying hard to know the reason. Similarly lot of times we are at receiving end because of somebody else's stupidity.
After lot of soul searching I realized that we as member of society get benefit of somebody else's good doing also like somebody invented electricity, somebody discovered medicines and somebody written outstanding literature. So being member of society, we will gain sometime and sometime we will lose but overall we gain and thus prosper. Therefore in my prosperity there is role of million of unknown faces.
Once traffic jam got over, I reached home and realized that today's traffic jam has taught me something very precious and that is have patience and contribute to society in best possible way.
As a responsible citizen, just a while ago I have send email to Pune traffic police department about traffic issues of Chakan, Pune. Hope traffic police department will pay attention on the my email and my efforts will help thousands of commuters to avoid getting stuck in traffic jam.


Just think about yourself, what's your contribution to society? Is it positive or negative?


Jai Hind!

Menance of fake social media messages

Few days back I was travelling in OLA. The driver was only 10th pass and very extrovert person. During conversation he told me that UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has 2 pet lions and he moves with those lions.
I was shocked to listen this kind of stuff from him, I said impossible. The driver was so confident that even I was taken aback. I asked him how come he is so confident. The driver replied that he has seen the photograph by his own eyes. When I asked where, he answered on Whatsapp.
Clearly it was forged photograph but I was thinking about the menace of face social media messages.
Daily we also get so many fake news on our Whatsapp and Facebook.
Someone rightly said, perception is reality. Imagine, there are crores of first time internet users being added every year and fake and forged news will shape their thought process.
It's very dangerous.
I have decided that if any suspicious message or news I get on social media, I don't forward it without doing cross checking at Google. 90% times my gut feel is correct and the message/news proves to be fake.
I request each and every person to take responsibility of stopping and discouraging fake/forged news.
Your few second of carefulness can help to fight against such menace.


Do you promise to support in this good cause?


Jai Hind!!
