Attack on Sri Lankan cricket team was shocking. I never heard such type of incident happened with cricketers in the past. I was bit disturbed after hearing the news as sports personalities are also not spared. Its very difficult to predict as where the things are heading towards.

Buying Gandhiji's personal belongings like watch, spectacles etc. for $ 1.8 million. Its good to have Gandhiji's personal items back in country. As an Indian I am very happy to hear about it but at the same time I was just wondering, If India is having such a huge amount then why we are not spending or diverting this sum on improving health, educational standards. 1.8 million dollar would really brought light and ray of hope in many needy Indian homes. I reckon this would have been a true gift to Gandhiji who always dreamed to uplift the needy and poor people.
