Girl stripped in class for missing homework Sun Sep 30, 2007 2:23 PM IST NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A seven-year-old girl was made to strip naked by her teacher in a New Delhi school for not completing her homework, a police spokesman said on Sunday. The minor was made to strip completely naked and stand on a desk in her class on Friday while other students were asked to boo her, the officer said. "The teacher was arrested on a complaint by the parents but she has been released as it was a bailable offence," Rajan Bhagat told Reuters over the telephone.

President poll is going on 24th of this month and nobody knows who is going to win the match. Now this unknown lady called Pratibha Patil is the strongest contender but believe me she could win this position 30-40 years ago by passing some pleasure to the senior congressmen. If this lady will become the president then god knows what will happen as you can see the past how badly this congress used governors for their own use. Can demolish any government any moment will be the play. Where our current and most popular President Mr. Abdul Kalam is a gentleman who don't want to become the president this time if all parties don't support him. This is the first time I saw so much shouting for the post President of India. Nowadays every party wants to utilize every single and tiny powers of the President.
New Delhi, June 13 (IANS) Even as the Indian political class prepares to bid goodbye to him, President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has won lavish praise from a doctor author for his intellectual standing.
After a 15-minute interaction at Rashtrapati Bhavan, Surender Singh, assistant professor in the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), came out of the meeting Tuesday wowed by the scientist-president.
“My god, what a man he is!” said Surinder Singh, who met Kalam in connection with “Pharmacology for Dentistry”, his latest and fourth book which he submitted to the president for reading.
“I was amazed to see that the president had thoroughly gone through the 500-page book and was ready with questions,” the doctor told IANS. “He had studied it so well that it looked a year-old book when actually it came out so recently.
“He had marked several pages, he had prepared a six-page summary of the book and he even pointed out what he felt were s

I looked forward to superannuating and planned to open a school for less privileged, but talented children. My friend, Prof. P. Rama Rao, who was heading the Department of Science and Technology in the Government of India, even struck a partnership with me to establish what he called a Rao-Kalam school. We were unanimous in our opinion that carrying out certain missions and reaching certain milestones, however important they may be or however impressive they might appear to be, cannot be the final sum of human life. But we had to postpone our plan as neither of us was relieved by the Government of India. It w

"Wings of fire†was perhaps the first book which I had read completely and which was not a part of my school or college syllabus :-). I had read this book in 2003 i.e. after Dr. Kalam was appointed the President of India. As I was not into the habit of reading then, I wondered if I would be able to finish this book
