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.

Effective utilization of public finds is crucial to meet development goals

The Importance of Efficient use of Public Resources Effective utilization of public resources is critical to meeting development goals. Key programs in education and health are overwhelmingly conducted within the public sector. And although private provision of infrastructure has expanded in areas like telecommunications and energy, private investors remain wary of socially-oriented sectors, such as water and sanitation, and also show little willingness to invest in the poorest countries. At present, though, research indicates that increases in public spending are only weakly correlated with the achievement of development outcomes in most developing countries. Government ineffectiveness — in the form of waste, inefficiency and corruption — is largely responsible.  Reasons for under-utilization and mis-utilizations of funds:  • Corruption: The large sum of money earmarked from public activities are taken away by officials as well as politicians in form of bribes. This results i...

The role of women in the freedom struggle during the Gandhian phase

M. K. Gandhi is known to be one of the few people who encouraged women’s active participation in the freedom struggle-marking him as a rare promoter of women’s liberation. Women’s entry into national politics through non-violent methods brought miraculous results. On the one hand, women became aware of their inner strength, and on the other, the process brought human and moral elements into politics.  Gandhi had tremendous faith in women’s inherent capacity for non-violence. And his experience of participation by women in politics from his days in South Africa till the end of his life bears testimony to the fact that they never failed his expectations. With Gandhi’s inspiration, they took the struggle right into their homes and raised it to a moral level.  Women organized public meetings, sold Khadi and prescribed literature, started picketing shops of liquor and foreign goods, prepared contraband salt, and came forward to face all sorts of atrocities, including inhuman treatm...
