The capriciousness of destiny

Reforming Higher Education in India: Institutions Should Have Freedom to Innovate While Remaining Accountable
The future of Indian higher education may depend not on greater central control, but on creating autonomous institutions operating within a strong framework of accountability.
BIMSTEC’s Strategic Challenge to Pakistan: Geopolitical Recasting or Regional Fracture?
Pakistan’s absence is not without costs. Diplomatic exclusion is only one facet of the spectre that looms over the country: limited transit access, reduced prospects for integration into Bay-centric supply networks and weakened soft-power influences across the Indian Ocean littoral.

Destiny
The Paradox of Time- Life’s Pantomime
Is my Time really mine
Or, is there a paradox there,
Conscience
Light up the wick of Conscience,
And the waiting lamp within,
Chisel Away
Does too much joy a sadness bring
Must there be little bits of everything,
Tears and Time and the Rivers

Sermons, Soliloquys, are an awful Bore!
Since we don’t know why we are here
Let’s do what the the Heaven we like,
Let’s Think Again
Impatience they say, now holds sway
Impatience will bring forth gains,
I C B M's

One Man, One Woman, That is All
When life’s no more than each breath we take,
Than the days and nights that we call the past,
Materialism at its Zenith
Materialism’s at its Zenith Now
But, Money can’t buy God nor ever will,
Where is the Human Connect Today?
It’s not about Perfection
But, all about Connection,
Befriend your Fears
The look in your eyes is no surprise,
The fear I see is meant to be
To An Old Friendship
I think I knew who lived here once
And, I think, I knew him well,
Twilight
Twilight, that time between sunset and nightfall
When Orange, nay Red, is the colour of the sky,
How Arty is the World of Artificial Intelligence,( AI )
Is AI the way forward, or
Out there to destroy Humanity,
