Why do you Study?

I have watched a Tv programme which is being anchored by the film heroine of recent past and follower of YS Jagan, Ms. Roja. It doesn't matter how the game went on but the knowledge of Ms. Roja remained as a real bimbett. She asked one of the participants about her education. The girl said she is studying or trying to get the seat in IIT. Now Roja's statement is that it is nice if the girl completes IIT, she will get good job. How can we justify this heroine a knowledgeable politician? Can't she ask the aspiration after passing or completion of degree IIT? Is IIT or any engineering course meant for good job opportunity only? Can't the engineers start their own industry or a firm or for some other business?

Why do I ask this?

Because, most of the parents and students including teachers etc. feel that studies are meant for jobs only. Previously, there were some ideal students to do business, engage in agriculture or start a manufacturing or service oriented firm etc. Now, everybody is searching for employment. Why don't they try their own industry etc. as per qualification. For example, an engineer or IITian can start a small scale industry with his technical knowledge. Another example is that an Agriculture graduate can maintain his farm lands in stead of searching for the post of agriculture scientist. A chartered Accountant can do practice. These are some of the occupations, I mentioned here. All these are helpful to earn money for their livelihood and will be masters of their work. Nobody can compel them to sit in the office or work in a firm for eight hours whether the employee likes or not.
One more point is that higher degrees are not necessary to earn something for their livelihood.

Here is my sincere advice to the students. Please stop your studies, if you are studying for want of a job only. Your normal degree is enough for most of the posts. Please study for improving your knowledge as the knowledge is divine. There is no end to gain the knowledge.

Jan Lokpal Bill - Some doubts

Everybody is talking about corruption and saying it should be driven out from the country. Our opposition leaders Susham Sewaraj, Arun Jaitely, the dethroned Karnataka CM Yedyoorappa, Mayawati, CBN, Jagan and many more leaders jumped into the fray without delay to support the octogeneraian Anna Hazare's fight against corruption. Of course, Kiran Bedi, Prashanti Bhushan and co are joined with Hazare long ago to fight against the corruption. Hazare was successful to bend the federal government to table the Lokpal Bill in the Parliament but he could not accept as the bill proposed by cabinet exempted Prime Minister under the purview of Lok Pal Bill. Mr. hazare is insisting the Parliament to pass the Jan Lokpal Bill which is preapred by his team where Prime Minister brought under purview of the Jan Lokpal Bill.

Mr. Circus Baba alias Ramdev Baba amassed Rs.30,000 crore assets all over the world also supported Hazare. Mr. Circus Baba sat in the fast untodeath for a total of 8 days for bringing back the black money from abroad. All this is so nice to hear but I have some doubts: please any learned person educate me about:

1. Can the Bill end the corruption immediately after passing the Jan Lokpall Bill in Parliament as drafted by Anna Hazare?

2. Can we prosecute the Prime Minister as per Jan Lok Pal Bill and punish the PM?

3. If the Jan Lok Pal feels that it is above constitutional posts like PM and President what are the measures to control?

4. Is there any gurantee that the Jan Lok Pal Bill members do not indulge in corrupt practices?

5. Doesn't the Lokpal Bill confer the extra constitutional powers over parliament to the appointed Secretary cadre officer like Election Commission Commissioner. Is it not breach of Parliamentarians' right?

6. If the total Black money (being earned through corruption) is brought back from outside the country as demanded by Circus Baba, can you imagine the rate of inflation?

Dear friends, as a novice, I have these doubts and comments if you have any, please post them here.
