Value of Life
Lalbagh renowned botanical garden of Bengaluru became graveyard for a Six year school boy Vikram Kumar, who had visited Lalbagh Gardens for Christmas holiday picnic. Even a botanical garden is not safe in our cities, leave aside city Roads and Highways. This Boy was crushed to death when he tried to sit on a Bird-Bath made of stone and the bird bath has slipped and fallen on him crushing him to death. Leave aside Scuba Diving facility or Water Parks offering adventures sports, A Garden is not following safety norms in our cities and is not safe for Kids to play. This reminds me of death of a lady travelling to office with her husband on two wheeler due to potholes in our roads that happened less than a year ago. LIFE in World's second densely populated Nation has no Value, is what I have to conclude because anything in excess has no value. Take instance of Demonetisation in this huge Nation, Death of nearly 50 persons directly or indirectly due to chaos of Demonetisation was rubbed aside citing reason 'Deaths during Revolution is common'. What Revolution happened in these 50 Days is in front of us. Still The people hoarding black-money are extended amnesty schemes by Govt. up to March 31st! Govt. has no proposal to put Black-money hoarders behind bar, So Why was such a huge Cry aka hungama done for such an act of demonetising money which is the role of Reserve Bank and not of Govt. in usual situations.more info...

Value of Currency
From November 8th 2016 to December 30th 2016 People of this biggest democracy have witnessed how they have to spend Money scarcely as it is not available abundant in spite of it being their own earnings. A cause was associated with this demonetisation spree and the cause was to Punish the Corrupt and Felicitate the honest. But Corrupt chose their own ways to convert Black to Pink and it is now history. Further Govt. is extending amnesty to money hoarders as it is the most precious THING in this Nation though it doesn't possess LIFE. Whereas Deaths are compensated by giving Relief Funds to the near and dear ones of the deceased, Compensation is in form of CURRENCY! Yeah, Currency is more precious isn't it friends?

Next let us move onto Value of technology in India.
Digital Deflation Food Inflation
A Friend of mine brought one interesting fact about Pre-liberalization India and Post-liberalization India. In 1980s Samosa was costing 1 Rupee and STD telephone call was costing 10 rupees. If we look at cost of Dhal/Food grains it is available at whooping cost of 150 Rupees, (though current trend is indiacting more production of dhal will result in fall of its cost). while players like JIO is offering Internet free of cost. The Technology is available and accessible and food crops are becoming scare resource. With this background We have to look at the Govt. Initiatives to connect National metros with Express-Highways. currently Bangalore-Chennai Express Highway is making lot of noise. The Farmers in both states of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu are facing turmoil due to throwaway prices that might be offered to their agricultural lands. The Idea of Prosperity we have is so rubbish that to connect two cities which are already connected by Road, Train and Air, one more express highway is on cards while farmers agricultural land which cannot be replaced by any type of currency in future will be spoilt. So, Friends be ready to pay heavy price for Water, Food and Air in near future.
To conclude: Food will be precious ingredient while Life of human being is losing value in this mad rush of development called Money making!
