§  Spending huge amount of money on IIT & IIM is dividing the nation in 2 different communities one community is not even having primary education where other community is having higher education

§  The most of the people going for the IIT IIM are self capable so government should make all this institutes self financed and stop funding.

Against

§  Still India in development mode so need of these institutes to promote our young talent to international platform.

§  its true student from IIT IIM are moving out but they are sending back money to the country eventually that money is getting utilized in India itself.

§  Democracy definitely hampered the progress because the people who have chosen by the Indian people are not educated enough and capable enough to run the government properly.

§  Democracy putting forward lot of restrictions on business to run it as profitable enterprise rather then it is becoming more like running for social causes.

§  In some sense yes. You know, because of the way the system is built, lot of regulations and formalities come into picture. The bureaucracy leads to delays.

§  Yes, as all can see from the TV news and read the papers, everything is being molded according to the wishes of the so called protectors of the democracy.

§  Developing talent is not a sin, it will help the child in his future.

§  It is a trickledown effect from the kind of competition experienced for entry into engineering colleges, graduation and others.

5-Advertising is all glitter and little truth.

Favour

§  The stars promoting the product most of the time dont take its responsibility moreover they not even use the product.

§  Advertisers have to depict what the customers like, enjoy keeping in mind the clients requirements.

§  As the products increase and so the ads, glitter is a way to ensure brand recall, a very important factor for the advertising firms.

§  Most of the time companies over showcase their product qualities which is not fair.

§  There are lot of examples like a person eat a chew gum and become so cool that girls start following him or take example of a famous perfume where if guys use that perfume girls start running behind them all these are totally fake.

6-Corruption is the main outcome of democracy in India.(IIML)

Favour

§  The fact that the system provides equality to everyone ,from whatsoever background and competency makes it easier to play around loopholes in the Indian Statute

§  Democracy not play a direct role to prmote the corruption but it give power to the people who could be non capable and have there own aims and shelfishness.

7-Social network Boon or Ban or

Social networking privacy issues

Favor (Boon)

§  Social networks are new meaning of staying in touch with whole world.

§  The internet a tool that an increasing number of people are choosing to use with great frequency. Too many of these people forget that the internet is a unrestricted, unregulated, and uncontrollable grouping of millions of people, their data, their opinions, and there interests.

§  Public sharing of private lives has not led to a rethinking of anything. It's just reminded people to use extreme caution when publicly sharing their private lives. If you wouldn't do something in front of everyone you know, don't do it on the internet.

§  Laws should --never-- be extended to allow privacy protection for things that people say and do in the public domain. Perhaps the greatest part of the internet is the lack of control, the utter and complete freedom of speech. What is needed is a basic warning from parents or friends to those who are new to the internet, warning of the possible pitfalls that can come with such freedom.

§  Humans are social animals by our nature and social networks are just one other outlet for humans to interact. We should not look at social networks are threats but as opportunities for us to interact with people globally. I myself am an active user of social networks and have made many friends and business contacts online that I would otherwise not have had the same level of opportunity or interaction.

Against (Ban)

§  Social-networking sites allow seemingly trivial gossip to be distributed to a worldwide audience, sometimes making people the butt of rumors shared by millions of users across the Internet.

§  Public sharing of private lives has led to a rethinking of our current conceptions of privacy.

§  Existing law should be extended to allow some privacy protection for things that people say and do in what would have previously been considered the public domain.

§  A guy who posted a video on Youtube weightlifting,skiing, and performing karate exhibitions. He was fired from his job for showing to much Bravado.

§  like other human social interactions which are transient, e.g. talking to friends over lunch, the Internet keeps a permanent record of what we say to each other. If you are having an online conversation with your friend(s) then you should be aware that conversation can be seen by countless others and that a record of that conversation will be kept somewhere on the Internet. Indeed, now with some social networks introducing geolocation services a record of where we go and how long we spend there will also be maintained.

§  There was one incident where robbers using user's geolocation on facebook to find out when target is at home or not.

§  People need to be aware of the environment within which they are communicating to others. If you are discussing things in a public forum then all that information is available to everyone else in that forum. Therefore hey should take a common sense approach to what they should and should not discuss. In the real world we only talk about sensitive issues when we are in private and with people we trust. I think though that when people are online they can fall into a false sense of security because there are physically in a secure place using their computer either in their office or their home which results in them divulging information they should not.

Conclusion

§  Social network is indeed boon for human race as it is bringing people closer and letting them communicate with each other without any fear and barriar.But still one nee to cautious of what level of personal information they are revealing on the social networks.
