Phawngpui : Tour to Mizoram is not complete without visiting Phawngpui. It is the mountain peak believed to be the home of the Gods. With the height of 2165 meters, it is the tallest peak of Mizoram. The location of the peak is easily accessible as it is near the Mizoram border in the district named Chhimtuipui. Flowers with varied hues and scents will bring smile on the faces of the tourists as the peak is world famous for the flowers like orchids and rhododendrons. Butterflies of different species can also be witnessed.

Sibuta Lung : A historic memory of the state, Sibuta Lung is the old stone which was laid around 300 years ago by a Palian Chief. The stone, situated 20 kilometers away from a village named Tachhip, carries an old tale of an orphan Sibuta who was adopted by the Chief. This is the reason behind the name of this stone. The love and the feelings of revenge by Sibuta are believed to be the reasons of why this stone was pulled from the river bank of the river Tlawng. Aizawl is the nearest big station which connects the tourists with this must watch tourist destination of Mizoram.

Phulpui grave : The place which can be best visited throughout the year due to the pleasant and even weather, Phulpui grave too holds a historic story behind its creation and the reason why it is a must visit site for the visitors visiting Mizoram.

It is located in between the villages of Baktawng and Chhingchhip. Depicting the everlasting tale of love and sacrifice, the place is of prime importance for the village people as it is the epitome of sacrifice made by Chhingpui who was killed by the rival village Chief and his husband who committed suicide after the death of his loving wife.

Let’s have open Discussion on this Indian IT A

  The first ever documented facts on freedom of speech were way back in 399BC when Socrates speaks to jury at his trial: ‘If you offered to let me off this time on condition I am not any longer to speak my mind… I should say to you, “Men of Athens, I shall obey the Gods rather than you.”‘ Cut two, 2015: Supreme Court struck down Article 66A and the freedom of speech and expressions prevails. Will it happen? Not until we decide to take care of the following: Awareness of rights and responsibilities We all know that the rights and responsibilities are the two sides of the same coin. Before demanding for your rights as the citizens of a country, one must abide by the rules too. While the article 19(1)(a) does gives us the right to freedom of speech and expression, it also has the conditional clause of “reasonable restrictions” under Article 19(2) of the Constitution of India, on the exercise of the right to freedom of speech and expression on the following grounds: • Security of State • F

  “Women Empowerment”, the very topic has been discussed so much in almost every forum and every possible live event that it seems a challenge to write something new and relevant on it.Hence, it’s human empowerment for me. Surprisingly, as per Old English Etymology, the word “man” means “a thinker” or “to have a cognitive mind” and it was used with no reference to gender, i.e., for male and female both. As the civilizations changed, the meaning changed too and today we use men and women, male and female etc. to categorize the humans. It is important for me to refer to these details because the premises on which I am proposing the ideas of women empowerment solely lies on it. What do we have achieved so far? After 68 years of independence, we do have the framework and constitutional rights in place for women to ensure the upliftment and better life for them. The only place we lack is the implementation of the same to every nook and corner of India. The challenge also lies in being the l

Tapping the potential of Indian Youth

  Youth! The UN, for statistical consistency across regions, defines ‘youth’, as those persons between the ages of 15 and 24 years, without prejudice to other definitions by Member States. With 28% of population of India in the age category of 10-24 years, we need to take the risk now or never. As quoted by Swami Vivekananda “Take risks in life, if you win, you can lead! If you lose, you can guide!” Whether we become the leader or a follower is secondary, at least we all will have something to do in life. Easier said than done? May be any of these clicks for us: Start Early When our young gen can handle mobiles, computers, video games and what not; they can learn other skills too during their academic years. The only requirement is to tweak the curriculum and make it more vocation based. Readers from 80’s and 90’s can easily recall the SUPW classes in their school. They learnt vocational skills like candle making, carpentry, embroidery etc. Today, it’s not only essential to make them i
