Remember my post "Mumbai An Easy Target," it was about High Street Phoenix Mall in Lower Parel and how their security system was totally flawed. Since I had a video to prove my stance, I emailed it to Phoenix authorities, some news channels, posted it on Youtube. Recently I revisited the mall, this time with a DigiCam to record their security flaws even better, but to my surprise, these people had improvised tremendously. I for a change felt really secured.

They had these young boys dressed in Black, who looked stronger than their previous counterparts. These guys were also sensibly equipped with detectors and walky talkies. They seemed serious about their job. They checked every bit of the car, they opened all the doors, checked below the seats, checked the glove compartment, checked the boot and the bonnet. Wow I was amazed. They even had 4-5 security personnel posted at every entrance of the mall with hand held detectors and bag checks.

I was just Wowed.. Miracles do happen in our city. We should probably thank those terrorists because without them this would be almost impossible in our city.

LPO Is The Least Preferred Among Law Students

All my LPO buddies read this:

A career with an Indian Legal Process Outsourcing is the least preferred among law students.

New Delhi, Dec.13 (ANI): A career with an Indian Legal Process Outsourcing (LPO) establishment is the least preferred among law students, according to a survey.

In its survey, ValueNotes Database, a leading provider of business intelligence and research, says that 45 percent of respondents felt that the pay package at an LPO was better as compared to the pay package at law firms, but they still did not consider it as a preferred career choice.

Multinationals, international law firms and Indian law firms tap the same talent pool of graduating law students. While multinationals are expanding their operations in India, the Indian companies are expanding their global footprint. Thus the requirements of both these groups for legal advice on financing, mergers and acquisitions, immigration, etc is expected to increase. In addition to this, international law firms are also interested in setting up shop in India and are pinning their hopes on the Bar Council to liberalize the Indian legal services market.

With the increasing demand for legal services from different sectors in the legal industry, there is bound to be a fight for talent, the survey says.

Though there are about 80,000 law graduates each year, the number that is employable is quite low.

According to the survey, LPOs will face an even greater problem in the fight for talent as they harbor a negative perception among law students.

The common feeling among students is that work at an LPO is repetitive and highly process driven. One of the primary challenges for service providers currently is to change this perception of students.

In light of this, the report recommends greater participation of service providers in spreading awareness about the offshore legal services outsourcing not only among students, but also faculty members in law schools. In the long term, greater partnerships/tie-ups between industry and universities will improve both the quality and quantity of the labor pool and change the perception that students have towards the LPO industry.

Some More Ideas on Mumbai Attacks....

1. Do not worry about those who have come thru boats... Our forces can easily defeat them.
WORRY about those who have come thru votes.... Those are our REAL ENEMIES….

2. What a shame and disgrace to every citizen of India that the elite NSG Force was transported into ordinary BEST buses, whereas our cricketers are transported into state of the art luxury buses, these Jawans lay down their lives to protect every Indian and these cricketers get paid even if they lose a match, we worship these cricketers and forget the martyrdom of these brave Jawans. The Jawans should be paid the salaries of the cricketers and the cricketers should be paid the salaries of the Jawans.

3. An ace shooter shoots and gets gold medal, government gives 1crore, another shooter dies while shooting terrorist, government gives 5 lakh.

WHO DESERVES MORE? Huh.. This is our India....

RULE 49-O gives every Indian citizen a right to NOT VOTE

RULE 49-O is a Rule in the The Conduct of Elections Rules, 1961, "covers the procedures to be followed when a valid voter decides not to cast his vote, and decides to record this fact. Recording one's vote under Rule 49-O is a choice that voters can exercise to prevent electoral fraud, and misuse of their vote."

I mean this is the coolest thing that I have heard of imagine a situation of negative voting. This could really bring about drastic changes in our whole flawed political system. But obviously and undoubtedly this right can not be exercised because no where in our electronic voting systems are we given a button which say "No candidate deserves my Vote."

Any guesses why our government wont let us exercise this right, besides I really fail to understand I am a law graduate but I was unaware of this right... so I really don't think common people have the slightest knowledge of it.

To start with, I guess we should ask our Politicians "Purported Leaders" to give us means to exercise this right.

Mumbai An Easy Target

1 day after the terror attacks were sorted in Mumbai, a friend and I visited High Street Phoenix (a shopping mall) at Lower Parel, Mumbai. We were astonished to see that the roads to Phoenix were desolated; there were no police men on the roads. When we were just entering the mall we realized the security system in place was overly flawed. The 2 security guards at the entrance were unarmed; they merely checked the bottom of the car and the boot. Neither did they ask us to roll down the windows, nor did they check on and under the back seat of the car.

Only presumption that I can arrive at was that either these security personnel are over confident, or that they by instinct know that this car isn’t carrying anything suspicious. I mean they themselves looked very disinterested and all the while were chatting with each other. The car before ours, even had a suitcase but they didn’t ask the driver to open it. This whole drill in these malls and multiplexes is just a farce. It’s a mockery of my, our and their time. I'd say don't do a job because you have to... do it because it matters... Besides even if they would suspect something what would these security people do... RUN? I haven’t seen a city that boasts to be one of the richest in the worlds to be so hapless. It is like we all Indians, especially Mumbaikars were cursed to be born here, where our lives really don’t matter.

Mumbai Will Always Be Under Seige, Unless...

In the 2 pictures clearly contrasting armour capabilities can be seen between US and India. When India's defense budget is the second largest in this world, why can't we also have as much or better arms and ammunitions to combat terror? There is only 1 answer to this - Corrupt Politicians are enjoying vacations from this money, their children study overseas from this money, their houses are adorned with exquisite collectibles from this money, they spend our money to get FSI for their IT Parks, 5Star Hotels, Malls and of course a few Ganpati Towers in Sindhudurg District "Aapli constituency" ... still we chose to keep our silence and wow ourselves for our resilience.

I am sure, soon people will get over this terrorized feeling and soon we'll all get back to our normal lives forgetting the fateful Wednesday. Unfortunately as soon as it is wiped out from our memories, the same terrorists will pull an even stronger attack. Again the history will repeat itself and you, me and every Indian will be a potential target. Again we'd be left to protect ourselves on our own or the police men who are merely equipped with whistles and all they can do is shout "Bhago, Jaan Bachakar Bhago." I say, We say, We all say "THATS NOT ENOUGH."

So let’s unite, let’s ask these politicians where our defense money is being used and why? Their resignations would mean them not being required to answer these impending questions. Their resignations do not mean their gratefulness, it shows their cowardice. It shows the escapist behavior of these politicians. Let’s not allow them to resign until they have answered all our questions.

Let us first take them to task and then move our attention to Pakistan and ISI. Asking the right questions at the right times is the beginning of a revolution. Let’s start a revolution.
