Germany Vs Argentina- The Judgement Day

The judgement day is on, Germany and Argentina must be preparing to get a handle on psyche of a big game. Both teams look solid and capable of turning the game around. If you regard 'disbelief' kind of thing, may be you are going to find it tonight. 

Both teams went through rigorous journey to finals and both have shown a great spirit of game. If talking about strengths, Germany has a better goalie Manuel Neuer compared to Romero of Argentina. Though the world Cup brings a good time for Romero and he is the only Argentinian goalkeeper to keep four clean sheets at a world cup tournament. 

German defense is as strong as Argentina has shown in the world cup. But if we talk about their forwards, nobody has impressed expect Leonel Messi and Angel De Maria. Angel's thigh injury and Leo's dinky performance is last couple of games is a concern. On the other hand German's squad has shown higher standard and its 7 players (out of playing squad) scored so far in WC games. Thomas Mullar, Miroslov Klose, Ozil and Tony Kroos is a deadly in-form combination and capable of penetrate any defense. 

Argentina is much dependent on Messi and posing its all stakes on him. Somehow the reality of football is that it is a team game. A team which will play in co-ordination, is going to sweep the show and Germany is expert in that.

Well, 95% of punters are also backing Germany, I place my bet on them too.

Go Germany!

Interim Union Budget 2014-15 (A Brief Look)

Interim union budget is on the floor. Many speculation were made, as people are having higher expectations from Modi's govt. Somehow budget is a decent job done by Mr. Jaitely and seems more realistic.

Govt seems committed to tackle the economic problems like inflation, GDP, fiscal deficit, FDI etc. Such changes requires hardship, as Indian economy has witnessed a drastic sluggishness in UPA tenure. Beside that govt has something more for common man in terms of tax exemption. As the limit raised from Rs 2 Lakh to Rs 2.5, would benefit more than 2 crore people.

A total of Rs 7060 Crore for developing 100 smart cities is another big mark. Bullet train between Mumbai and Ahmadabad has been already announced. Budget has a lot for rural population; from sanitation to rural housing and from road to entrepreneurship, fair amount of justice has done. Rehabilitation of Kashmiri Pundits is also an initiative of budget. 

Budget has a clear focus on education and digitization. Rs 28635 is being funded for SSA (Sarv Shiksha Abhiyan) and Rs 4966 Crore for RMSA (Rashtriya Madyamic Shiksha Abhiyan). Moreover 5 IITs and 5 IIMs has been announced, which is a big and brave decision. Govt has shown commitment for health education as well and wish to establish AIIMS in every state. Pan India digitization and effective communication is another area of focus in the budget.

Mr. Jaitley announced a lot of measures aimed resuscitating the local production. These reforms include rectification of duty sturcture, work on industrial corridors and clusters, single window portal etc.

Although a little has announced for women safety, which is a prime concern now a days. Merely Rs 150 is insufficient for safety concerns. Modernization of madarsas got just Rs 100 crores. 

Announcement of Rs. 200 Crore for the Statue of Sardar Patel has come under criticism on social media. In a country which is largely strives poverty and hunger, such initiative is 'unnecessary foolishness'.

Well, people are quite done with Interim, and want to see results!
