IBMC #7: The News and Paper Challenge

You are going to pick up a news paper article. Either online or take a snapshot from the hard copy paper. Use appropriate reference for the article you have used. You need to debate and discuss your view points on the selected article. How best can you do? You can pick up any category like general, politics, entertainment, etc. Even guest columns are very much appreciated.

Here’s the bit I’ve chosen:

Hartals are our way of saying “strike”. Over here, in our country, even a few months ago, a strike meant wariness on the streets and closed schools and cancelled exams. but with all the constant political turmoil, these things mean next to nothing these days. You have exams and the opposite is holding a strike? Doesn’t matter. You’ll have to go sit for the exam anyway.

Nobody cares, but I still do, because by making strikes something to ignore, this country is taking away my right to unexpected holidays. :p
