The New You By Bharathi Santosh Kumar

The plight of the Unfortunate

After witnessing the education system through the windows of our Government school, it is obvious that the system ensures to sustain the rich and poor gap for forthcoming generations.  The state language is offered to the less fortunate children, while the fortunate grasped the language that fetched them future jobs and a promising career.
The issue is that vernacular medium is not wholesome. Beyond schooling, the children are in for a cultural shock which they hardly recover from. To a non-English medium student, learning in an engineering college has been a painful struggle. Some even fail to pass the subjects as they move from one semester to another. They hardly make any attempt themselves to seek help and avoid contact and tend to stay only with other non-English medium ones; which makes the situation worse and thereby they lose a fine opportunity to mature as fluent communicators. Added to this is their inability to participate in day-to-today experiences academically and socially. Because of such effective blocks, they avoid using English and hardly interact with their English medium peers or faculty for they probably believe that they may be getting into embarrassing situations and see their errors as threats to their egos. The shock is complete with their intelligence stunned and self-confidence eroded; consequently, it leads to avoidance, isolation and total loneliness in body and mind. They go through the motions, move from one semester to another until the frustration and inaction end, thankfully at the end of the eighth semester. Most government school teachers are poorly trained and barely proficient in the language.
1.       Government schools to provide good quality English medium education through teachers who are proficient and fluent in English.
(or)
2.       State language should be offered as the medium of education in Engineering and medical colleges and also as the medium of communication in job interviews.

Either of the above should be actioned in order to help these children. Else, only self-awareness and self-effort could. Hence, the book The New You is designed to develop essential life skills and English language skills. Specially tailored for students who love to converse in English despite their non-English speaking background.

BlueRose Publishers presents The Wheel of Creation by Rakhi Roy Halder

Science Never Clashes with Spirituality The Wheel of Creation is the English translation of the collected volume of Hindi poems “Srishti Chakra” written by Rakhi Roy Halder. Her students of Loreto college, Kolkata translated many poems of this book, under the guidance of the editor of the book Subhasree Basu, faculty of Loreto College. Man is an integral part of creation. His life is governed by the law of the universe. The human intellect categorizes things for the convenience of understanding. This categorization leads to a disintegrated view of creation. Science versus spirituality is one such example of disintegrated vision. As described by Swapna Behera—Educationist, Editor, and Bilingual Author, The Wheel of Creation is a rare combination of Science and Poetry. This collection of poems aims at expressing the roller coaster ride that is life and uniting the spiritual and scientific consciousness to reveal the magical power of energy flowing through the entire universe, which pla...

BlueRose Publishers Presents 'The Storm in the Silence' by Nikhlesh Mathur

The Storm in the Silence “Your medicine, which disappeared at City-cure, is in Dinshaw,” Aarti read the message repeatedly. She was overjoyed. She understood what he referred to.  “I am coming there immediately,” she called him on a cell phone. “No,” he replied, “If the police recognize you here then God forbid they might put him in some other hospital.” “Then what should she do?” She glanced at ward forty-two. The door was still closed. Aarti endures the storm in silence, she sustains the attacks on her with courage, she maneuvers her moves cleverly. She defies the odds. She also fires back without worrying about any blizzard which surrounds her. Her cries don’t pin her down; her tears don’t make her prosaic. She takes the charge in her own hands when she finds the world of men, including her loved ones, drawing battle lines for her.  But she refuses to throw down the gauntlet.  Like a warrior woman, she outclasses her adversaries with characteristic astuteness u...

BlueRose Publishers Presents ‘मत करो कलंकित मानवता’ by Ramesh Chhabra

विकास के लिए शांति जरुरी ! यह महसूस किया जा रहा है कि देश में धार्मिक कट्टरता और हिंसा बढ़ रही है जिससे पारस्परिक सौहार्द प्रभावित होता है। एक ओर प्रधानमंत्री विदेशों में भारत का सम्मान बढ़ाने का प्रयास करते दिखते हैं, दूसरी ओर उन्हीं के दल के कुछ लोग विवादास्पद बयान जारी कर घृणा बढ़ाने का काम कर देते हैं। हिंसा होती है जिसमें गौ रक्षकों द्वारा की गयी मोब लिंचिंग की घटनाएं होती हैं और भारत की ख्याति को धक्का लगता है। देश ने दंगों का दंश झेला है। हम इसे और सहन नहीं कर सकते। दुःख इस बात का है कि हमारे राजनेता सत्ता के लालच में इस तनाव को हवा देते हैं जबकि देश की तरक्की व विकास, देश में शांति बरकरार रहने से ही संभव है। जहाँ आपसी तनाव और नफरत होगी वहां आप शांति की कल्पना नहीं कर सकते और जहाँ शांति नहीं, वहां विकास नहीं हो सकता। चूँकि देश को विकास चाहिए, युवकों को रोजगार चाहिए और ऐसा समाज चाहिए जहाँ बच्चों को अच्छी शिक्षा मिले, महिलाएं भी आज़ादी से सुरक्षित रह सकें। इन सबके लिए शांति और सद्भाव जरुरी और पहली शर्त है, जिसे हम भूल रहे हैं। Shop:  Amazon ,  Flipkart ,  Shop...
