Remembering Nelson Mandela, one of the greatest leaders of the the world may have ever seen

By
Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela In this life, when there is evil, a person comes along who rewrites history by becoming history himself, who fights all odds and changes systems that was long supposed to unchangeable. When Apartheid (the policy of racial segregation on the lines of a person's colour)  was rampant in South Africa, this great man came along fought a relentless battle, spend almost 27 years behind and in the end won the battle making racial discrimination illegal. His war was peaceful taking inspiration from the great Mahatma. He went on to become the first black President of South Africa. Today when he left this world for the heavens, we the humanity has lost a noble soul , a great leader and one that will never be replaced. I salute you sir for your life's work. May your soul rest peace.

Indian Navy- Challenges and opportunities ahead

By
Pic Courtesy-Wikimedia When you talk about India, there is no second guess of the fact that India is a predominantly a sea power with three sides surrounded by Oceans. The guardians of these Oceans are the force that is fast emerging as a power to be reckoned with, an emerging blue water power, The India Navy.  From a humble beginning after Independence, Indian navy has grown in complexity and structure down the years and now acts as the ambassador and protector for India in the world arena.

The eastern fleet mandated to secure Ind
