As if the current state is not bad enough even mother nature does not want to spare us? Are we really that bad? I dont really think so!!! So do not give a damn to all those who are pulling us down even 'mother' nature! Rise oh Indians, rise above all and fight back.

Condolence Message:It's very true that earthquake considers no political boundaries. Our fellow citizens are really in dismay and in a pathetic condition. What I think is that at this time of crisis if all the chief ministers of all the states in India can contribute their helping hand towards giving relief to the victims then hopefully the affected parts of Gujrat will revive once again within a few days. Our country is such a diversified country that we are self sufficient to provide assistance to the greiving families. At this situation of need I request all the political leaders of our country whom we have voted to come forward and just do whatever they can. Besides it, we are having our individual contributins towards the rehabilitation from the disaster. But I think if all the political leaders from all the parts will come forward then the whole situation can be tackled with little difficulty.
