Operation Tornado and Raj Thackrey

Due to my exams i could not  attend fully the happenings in the country esp. in Mumbai. On 27th   morning 5AM, when I switched  my lappy on ,I found the news  regarding Mumbai attacks, and Operation Tornado. While rest 60 hours  drama followed, ne thing which haunted me was ,what Raj Thackrey has got to comment on these incidents. Ignoring the security, economy and other issues, he enflamed Mumbai with matters which has nothing to do  with the nation’s welfare. What he and his  Sena were doing in the hours of crisis? They are brave enough to terrorise all North Indians; why didn’t they did proceed to counter the terrorists. One remarkable point  which I see is that  the NSG which played the key role in curbing the terror, was comprised mostly of North Indians. They risked their lives just because Raj and his company could sleep in peace!. I admit that there were some Marathi Maanoos(I don’t like calling them this way ,all are Indians)  in it, but the question is that had all the Non-Marathis quitted in the operation ,what would have been the fate? I want to give a advice to Raj Thackrey and his company that they should refrain from creating partition within the Country

Saturday, today four of my papers ended, along with a drama of consecutive hopelessness and anarchy. If  I ponder over past few days of my life, I feel that  the basic methodology of life needs to be defined. What I want to say is that  we  had   with  prepared all our efforts, but when it came to examination, all faces turned gloomy. The reason is not  that we left any stone  unturned ,but  our efforts were in wrong direction. Coming to the point ,the papers of Soft Computing and Data Communication were mostly out-of-syllabus. Even today , “Semiconductor devices”  had strange questions.

The problem is that  here what is taught here  or what we study is totally guided by the syllabus  and the tutorial sheet provided. But at Mesra teachers follow their own syllabus  or whatever may be and set  question accordingly. When it comes to us  we get totally  perplexed at the time of examination because question mostly stand out –of-syllabus. We even complained to Director sir about it , but what is lost is lost, it cannot be reclaimed. Why is then syllabus  given for? The  questions of soft computing were even out of scope of the text book. I don’t  know what people at Mesra think  but to all og us it is a dirty joke , a severe blow to our prospects. This is not something new  but a reiteration of what  occurred in 4th semester end –sem, that time too Discrete Mathematical Structures and  DBMS had similar problems. I hope Exam department at Mesra should take the matter seriously and immediately
