BAD News

In the morning, i switched on the TV for hearing  news, by chance my room partner here at gurgaon, woke up early morning and and while he was lying down on the bed heard the news for a while and then said "ye subah subah kya marne-maarne wali kahani laga rakhi, put some song channel", i was about to respond to him but then resisted from saying anything. I realized he was not wrong in his instantaneous remark. Everyday what NEWS everyone of us get whether we pick up a newspaper or listen to a news channel is full of all negative news.

I was just wondering if we can start publishing a  monthly newspaper or a newsletter atleast at the beginning and publish the good work which is being done across the country by individuals, organizations and government officials so that an option of "positive news only" can be created.

Those of you, who had been following this blog might recall an earlier attempt of e-newsletter "Samaaj" which was unfortunately discontinued due bit hectic schedule of studies at IRMA.

Now when we propose to restart ... I think this should  not only limited as e-newsletter but also as a monthly regular published newsletter. This obviously will have to be a "Not- for Profit" newsletter and would need dedicated volunteers

Team which at this moment which I can think of would be needed is

1) 4 Volunteers for news collection
2) 2 Volunteers for Editing
3) 2 Volunteers for spreading the E-newsletter across the avaialble blogs/ or other public discussion platforms

Later on when we are able to develop resources, we can begin up the monthly Published newsletter for which someone can volunteer to prepare a proposal "How we can go about it- legalities invloved in it, What kind of resources both financial and human we will need.. etc"

If u feel interested do drop in ur response

मन एक जुलाहा

मन एक जुलाहा फंसी डोर सुलझाना, चाहे सिरा मिले न मिले कोशिश से नहीं कतराना, जाने मन ही मन कि जब तक जीवन तब तक उलझनों का तराना फिर भी डोर सुलझ...
