Why should we reject the idea of AAP?

If you can't win, then spoil BJP's victory by allowing a cheap 3rd grade party to contest elections. –   This is not Dirty Tricks but OLD Congress strategy  Arvind Kejriwal formed Aam Admi Party (AAP) to introduce corruption free governance in India; however, his party seems to be faltering even before achieving any victory.

While most of the businesses follow Organic or Inorganic growth strategies to increase their market share and influence, Indian media adopts t...

Learning Solidified! My salutations to you. Grant me the knowledge. Sanskrit is the fountainhead of all languages on earth – that is why Sanskrit is popularly known as the mother of all languages. The word Sanskrit indicates perfection as explained below: Sanskrit = Sam + Krit Sam means entirely, wholly OR perfectly; AND Krit means done When we add Sam and Krit, we get Sanskrit which means 'perfectly done'.

In ancient times, Sanskrit was the preferred mode of communication amongst rishis as well as the common man. During those times, our ancestors used Sanskrit in every field – for example, trade, education, research & development an...
