Mild Tremors Shake Delhi in the middle of the Night...

It was 1.40 a.m. on 12th Nov. 2013.
I was sitting on a suitcase... (like you sit in a railway station).. and working on laptop.... suddenly I could feel the tremors and thought that it might be a bulldozer or some sort of heavy vehicle, as its associated with a rumbling sound also..
Then, I realised that there is no place for a heavy vehicle in our narrow streets...
Then it dawned on me, that what i felt was the Earth shaking... Immediately we raced down the building.....
More shocks have been felt later....

Will the New MBBS curriculum be 6.5 years???

According to what Mr.Azad said, "I don't mind increasing the duration of MBBS to 6.5 years. In the US, students have to go for six years of additional study to be able to prescribe medicines and practise,”
But, why does he mind???
It's we medicos and the MBBS aspirants, who mind his decision..
He stays for a couple of years and then somebody else will replace him..
But what about the fate of future doctors??
And why is he repeatedly comparing our system with that of US???
Don't we have an indigenous system???
