Shockingly, the Lancet, reported that, on average, suicide rates reported by NCRB, were 37% lower than the rates reported by the Global Burden of Disease. So, it will safe to say that for every 100 suicides in the country, only 63 are reported by the NCRB.

Many development pro grams are organized in the company for fresh pass-out employees, but the disap pointment is that entry-level employees in India are paid the least amount of compen sation and salaries. This is a matter of concern. The aver age Indian Entrepreneur pays a negligent amount to a fresher — not realizing the potential of their new ideas – as compared to other Asian countries.

The world-renowned com pany, Tower Watson recently conducted a survey in Asia’s Developing Countries about salaries offered to fresh pass outs. According to the survey done with eleven countries, India’s place in paying to the entry-level employees is ninth. According to this sur vey, the average pay scale of entry-level employees in In dia is estimated to be around US $400 which is approxi mately INR 25,000 a month. This amount is roughly onefifth as compared to coun tries like South Korea and Singapore.But,there is good news for the employees working in the

The BJP too doesn’t stand to gain much by attacking Rahul Gandhi and Mahu Moitra for the expensive brands of their T-shirts and handbags. It is a completely different matter when the Congress attacks the RSS by showing a pair of khaki shorts up in flames. The Con gress must ensure that Rahul Gandhi’s “Bharat Jodo” yatra will galvanise people against the Sangh parivar and the BJP and propel it to a position of strength.
The officials of Tower Watson consider India as strong contender in the world for growth and development, though the less-salary package of the entry-level employees is one of the concerning areas.

The officials of Tower Wat son consider India as strong contender in the world for growth and development, though the less-salary pack age of the entry-level employ ees is one of the concerning areas. While India’s entrylevel employees rank number one in terms of intellect and skill, Indian youth has a lot of expertise in IT and manufac turing. One major point re vealed in this Survey, is that if you want young people of India to stop going to other countries, then they should be given a respectable salary package here itself. If they get the payment as per the re quirement and their skill set in other countries, then they should be paid the similar amount at the home turf.

he youth of this country is emerging as a major opportu nity for the development. The population of Indian Youth is more than other developed countries. The hope of devel opment in India is based on it’s young blood. The coun try’s economy is getting stronger with the strength of its youth. In the corporate sec tor, youth contributes signifi cantly (in the range of 30 to 40%) towards company’s growth as they come up with different creative ideas in the development of new products and for the company’s pro gress. Most companies have realized how important it is to have a fresh blend of ideas and ideologies in their com pany. This is why a lot of them have taken to the idea of re cruiting at least 5-10% young sters in the mainstream.
One only hopes for a peaceful settlement of Varanasi and Ma thura disputes. At some point the process of reclaiming shrines has to stop for the sake of harmony in the country.

I would advise myself to adopt a never-giveup attitude. It would make me consistent in all my efforts to be lieve that there is a long way to go. I would tell myself to be proud of whatever I’ve achieved.

If you could go in future and tell yourself one thing about your career what would it be?
What inspired you to go for modelling? I’ve always loved to be in front of the camera and maintain a healthy lifestyle to motivate people. Modelling is one such profession where I could get the best platform to show case my skills in pos ing. I always got compli ments about my looks since I was a child but modelling is a lot more than just being beauti ful. This is the message that I wish to pass on to the world to bring posi tive changes to society.

The calmest place amidst the hustle-bustle of Gurgaon, the Aravalli Biodiversity Park is spread over a sprawling area of 153 hectares. Previously a wasteland, through the govern ment’s efforts to regenerate the land, the park is now home to over 150 species of flora and fauna and serves as an excel lent spot for early morning runs. We’d say you head over here with a good book to enjoy some me-time in the lap of nature.
I was 14-year-old when I saw some models with a photogra pher in the garden. I also got my pictures clicked during that which I believe was my first achievement. Later, I par ticipated in a beauty pageant and loved glamour, makeup and fashion. I got attracted to the camera and soon it be came my best friend.
