Bal Diwas 2017 in India
Children's Day is celebrated across India on November 14, the birth anniversary of the first Prime Minister of India Jawaharlal Nehru, fondly called Chacha Nehru. He is often cited as saying that children should always be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow.
Here are some of the stirring quotes from the speech that is considered to be one of the greatest speeches of the 20th century:
1. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom.
2. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance.
3. We end today a period of ill fortune and India discovers herself again. Are we brave enough and wise enough to grasp this opportunity and accept the challenge of the future?
4. Freedom and power bring responsibility. The responsibility rests upon this Assembly, a sovereign body representing the sovereign people of India.
5. As long as there are tears and suffering, so long our work will not be over.
6. Peace has been said to be indivisible; so is freedom, so is prosperity.
7. We have to build the noble mansion of free India where all her children may dwell.
8. We shall never allow that torch of freedom to be blown out, however high the wind or stormy the tempest.
9. All of us, to whatever religion we may belong, are equally the children of India with equal rights, privileges and obligations.
10. India, our much-loved motherland, the ancient, the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service.

What are the Functions keys ?

By

Commonly known as  function keys  on a computer keyboard, F1 through F12 may have a variety of different uses or no use at all. The operating system installed on the computer and the software program that is currently open dictates how each of these keys operate. A program is capable of not only using each of the function keys, but also combining the function keys with the  Alt  or  Ctrl  key. For example, Microsoft Windows users can press Alt+F4 to close the currently active program. Note:   Some keyboards' F1-F12 keys include additional functionality when used in combination with the   Fn   key, which is usually located near Ctrl. For example, if the F11 key has a blue "Stop" sign under it, pressing Fn + F11 will stop the music you're listening too. The additional functions available with the use of the Fn key will differ depending on the brand of keyboard being used. Please check your computer's...

Rajnish Kumar, 59, the senior most of the managing directors at State Bank of India (SBI), will become the 25th chairman of the country’s largest lender, succeeding Arundhati Bhattacharya, who is set to retire on 6 October. The government on Wednesday announced his appointment for three years. Kumar currently is in charge of retail banking at SBI. Kumar’s appointment comes at a time when SBI’s profitability is under strain because of ballooning bad loans and sluggish credit growth. At the end of June, the bank was weighed down by gross non-performing loans of Rs1.88 trillion. Gross bad loans account for almost one-tenth of its total advances. SBI is also the lead bank in a majority of the 40 cases referred for bankruptcy proceedings at the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). “Asset quality is a challenge. So that will definitely receive priority,” Kumar told CNBC TV-18 in an interview. “We are undergoing a major transformation in terms of adoption of new technology a...
