Narendra Modi is not communal, Anna Hazare says

Anti-graft crusader and veteran social worker Anna Hazare on Wednesday said that there is no evidence of Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi being communal. However, he said that he cannot support the BJP leader because he is associated with a political party.

Addressing media persons, here on Wednesday, he said, “The purpose of his ‘Jantantra yatra’ is to bring back democracy in its true spirit and force the government to introduce the Lokpal Bill”.

Referring to the large number of scams involving the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government, he said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has no right to continue in his post, and he should resign on moral grounds. “When the multi-crore coal scam took place, he (PM) was also holding the additional charge of the coal ministry,” said Hazare.

Castigating the political parties, he said the Parliament is full of “corrupt people and criminals”. He said Prime Minister should be elected directly by the people stating that people must elect only independent candidates.

Earlier talking to the media in Ujjain, he said our constitution states that people are the owners and government and public representatives play the role of servants, in practice the actual situation is reverse with people (voters) becoming servants and the elected representatives the masters.

He said corruption is the biggest menace and only a powerful Jan Lokpal Act could address it.

Recalling his earlier years, Hazare said he had decided to devote his whole life to serving society when he was just 26 and even refrained from marriage. I am able to pick up fights with the government as I lead an honest life, he said.

Former chief of the army staff general V K Singh who was accompanying Anna asked the people whether they have the enthusiasm to bring changes in country’s system.

Earlier, Hazare visited the Mahakal temple and offered puja.

27 Simple mehndi designs for hands for Karwa Chauth

The most simple mehndi designs for hands for Karwa Chauth 2014 Karwa Chauth is around the corner and I am so excited about getting mehndi done! This time I plan to go with a simple yet quirky design. Don’t want my hands full, however it needs to be a style statement for this year’s most awaited festival for us ladies! There are some basic categories of mehndi designs, such as Gujrati, Rajasthani, Marwari, Arabic and African patterns to choose from. They have certain prominent motifs or symbols that distinguishes one from the other. I just can’t seem to stop experimenting with these styles. From circles to squares , peacocks and paisleys , checks and dots and what not. But my all-time favorite is a simple, curling vine, of course finger tips covered with thick coating of aromatic mehndi (which is so traditional). Quirky patterns include traditional as well as non-traditional patterns tweaked to one’s own liking. This includ...

Inline Functions and their Uses

It’s a good practice to divide the program into several functions such that parts of the program don’t get repeated a lot and to make the code easily understandable. We all know that calling and returning from a function generates some overhead. The overhead is sometimes to such an extent that it makes significant effect on the overall speed of certain complex and function-oriented programs. In most cases, we have only a few functions that have extensive use and make significant impact on the performance of the whole program. Not using functions is not an option, using function-like macros is an option, but there is a better solution, to use Inline Functions. Yes, like it sounds, inline functions are expanded at the place of calling rather than being “really called” thus reducing the overhead. It means wherever we call an inline function, compiler will expand the code there and no actual calling will be done. Member functions of classes are generally made inline as in many case...
