Crisis of Conscience

 “Crisis of conscience” is a state in which it is very difficult to decide what is right thing to do. Conscience becomes inconspicuous through human weakness. Crisis of conscience is when you feel guilty after realisation of any wrong action that you did. One always thinks of what he has done wrong. He can’t be happy with the feeling of guilt within himself. 

It is a case of ethical dilemma, but often in a strong sense. In this particular case of crisis of conscience a person fears that his actions may be against the voice of conscience and hence ethically wrong. Once I was going in my car for an interview and I was getting late. So I thought of jumping the red light though I knew it is a wrong action. But in hurry I hit a passerby. I took him to the hospital and got his treatment done. I was very much regretting for whatever I did.

Subhash Chandra Bose and Mahatma Gandhi in the struggle for Indian Freedom

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and Mahatma Gandhi were infallibly dedicated to the cause of Indian freedom. They were loved by the masses and feared by the Raj. But between themselves, these two icons of India’s freedom movement shared a rather frosty relationship and history is replete with instances of trenchant differences between them.  Although Subhash Chandra was a follower of Gandhi during the initial days, the later part of the 1930 witnessed a growing radicalization of his thoughts and Bose became increasingly frustrated with the lack of momentum in the independence movement. As Bose started to assert his bold stance in various party forums, it led to a polarization in the Congress party ranks.  Subhash Chandra Bose found himself frequently at loggerheads with Gandhi and their differences often came out in the public. All these bickering reached a climax when Subhash Chandra Bose became Congress President for a second term in 1939 defeating Gandhi-nominated candidate Pat...

The partition of Bengal in 1905

Many reasons may be identified for the partition of Bengal in 1905. According to the British Government, the Bengal province consisting of Bihar, Orissa, Assam was too big to be welt governed. So it was felt that Bengal has to be divided for administrative convenience.  The British government actually was interested to check nationalistic feelings of Indians, so they partitions Bengal. Bengal was the nerve centre of Indian nationalism due to the rising number of attacks on the Britishers by the revolutionary terrorists, and due to the fact that emerging military nationalism had obtained a strong following in Bengal.  So it was this consideration which made the British partition Bengal under two administrate units;  1.  On the basis of language thus reducing Bengalis to a minority in Bengal itself.  2. On the basis of religion as Hindus in West and Muslims in the East. It was this imperialistic consideration that led to the partition of Bengal-and not the concept...

CARTOSAT – 2A, ISRO Satellite

Image
  PSLV-C9 is the thirteenth flight of ISRO's Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and the third flight of its 'Core Alone' version as well. In this flight, PSLV launched ten payloads - India's 690 kg CARTOSAT-2A and 83 kg Indian Mini Satellite (IMS-1) as well as eight nanosatellites from abroad together weighing about 50 kg into a 635 km high polar Sun Synchronous Orbit (SSO) inclined at an angle of 97.94 deg to the equator.   With much lighter payloads compared to the ones placed into orbit by its standard version, PSLV-C9 is configured without the six solid propellant strap-on motors of the first stage. The previous two launches of PSLV were also such 'Core Alone' versions. The Core Alone PSLV-C9 had a lift-off mass of 230 tonne.     PSLV has emerged as the workhorse launch vehicle of ISRO with eleven consecutively successful flights so far. Since its first successful launch in 1994, PSLV has launched eight Indian remote sensing satellites, HAMSAT - an amateu...

Modern Indian Literature

In almost all the Indian languages, the modern age begins with the first struggle for India’s freedom in 1857, or near that time. The impact of western civilization, the rise of political consciousness, and the change in society could be seen in what was written during that time. Contact with the western world resulted in India’s acceptance of western thought on the one hand, and rejection of it on the other, and resulted in an effort made to revive her ancient glory and Indian consciousness.  A large number of writers opted for a synthesis between Indianization and westernization, in their search for a natinal ideology. All these attitudes were combined to bring about the renaissance in 19th century India. But it was a renaissance in a country which was under foreign domination. So it was not that kind of renaissance which had spread in 14th-15th century Europe, where scientific reasoning, individual freedom and humanism were the dominant characteristics.  The Indian renaissa...
