        In recent times, India and SouthEast Asia           have witnessed an unprecedented rise                           in foreign trade   When it comes to the geographical location of our nation, India has occupied one of the most strategic positions in the world trade and markets. The Indian landmass has a central location between the East and the West Asia. India is a southward extension of the Asian continent. The trans Indian Ocean routes,  which connect the countries of Europe in the West and the countries of East Asia, provide a strategic central location to India. The deccan Peninsula protrudes into the Indian Ocean, thus helping India to establish close contact  with West Asia, Africa and Europe from the western coast and with Southeast and East Asia from the eastern coast. No other country has a long coastline on the Indian Ocean...

Did you know? 3 startups are globally launched every second . However, a CBI statistic report shows that, on an average, 9 out of 10 new startups turnout as a failure.  Startup is defined as “ an entrepreneurial venture or a new business in the form of a Company or project initiated by an entrepreneur or a group of entrepreneurs, to seek, effectively develop, and validate a scalable business model .” Startups have been the flavor of the season over the past few years for the Indian markets, and this has resulted into the emergence of many home grown unicorns (privately held startup companies that are valued at over US $1b) across the nation. India saw the initiation of only 3,100 startups in 2014; but the digits gradually rose to 7,200 startups in the year of 2018, and this number is expected to reach up to 11,500 by the year 2020. Thus, we can see that the Indian startup ecosystem has really taken off in recent years and this is not a passing trend, but a revolution as a whole....

GDP and India India, a developing economy in the world market, has set its base to lead through the way. Various basics and super strong foundations of economic decisions are ready to lead India to the top position in the world trade and technology. It gives a strong prospect to the Indian economy to compete at the international level. India is said to be the 5th largest economy in terms of nominal GDP.

Cultures and Contributions of the East We, as people living in a free, democratic country, are well aware of the fact that a huge part of our lifestyle has been influenced by the western trend that includes powerful countries like USA, UK, Canada, etc. But what we have been constantly failing to notice, is that the eastern countries— among whom India plays a vital role—have been influencing the world since a long period with their exquisite and rich culture.  The eastern part of the world i.e. The Eastern world consists of the Asian continent, the Indian Subcontinent and Europe. These countries, although seldom acknowledged, have been one of the greatest contributors to the world's overall development, be it any field whatsoever. From the onset of the first bullet train in Japan, to the introduction of tea from China, our lives have been prominently affected. Even then, these are minute contributions in the vast range of the progress that the Eastern Countries have led ...

         It is said that a government is the heart and kind of every economy. We, the people, elect the government through elections. Just as we categorize certain leaders to be too good or bad to be real, the 2019 Canadian federal elections were a series of unexpected turns.  The Liberal Party lead by incumbent Prime Minister Justin Trudeau with his minority government won 157 seats in the general elections. The Liberal party lost the majority they had won in the 2015 elections. The Liberal Party’s main opposition, the Conservation Party had a higher vote share of 121 seats, as a result they remained the official opposition.  As Justin Trudeau officially began his second term, there prevailed a sense of alienation from the rest of the country. Let’s assess the factors that led to this not that surprising of an outcome- The Scandals Sometimes a man can be his own worst enemy and that was somewhat true in the case of Justin Trudeau. Various controversie...

BOOK REVIEW-All the Light We Cannot See "So how, children, does the brain, which lives without a spark of light, build for us a world full of light?"-Anthony Doerr. Inside the walled island-city of Saint Malo, the war has arrived. We are introduced to two people staying in the same city whose paths, unbeknownst to the reader, are about to cross. Marie Laure lives in the tall house by the sea where she has with her a miniature diorama of the very city she is within and a jewel of fabled powers. Losing her sight at an early age, the diorama is how she learns to navigate her way around and later become a part of the resistance. Situated a few streets away from her is Werner Pfennig, a German soldier of extraordinary skill with the radio. Growing up in an orphanage with his sister, Werner dreams of a life bigger than the coal mines he is supposed to work at. We are soon swept away in the story; navigating the streets of Paris first and later Saint Malo, with Marie La...
