பேரறிஞர் அண்ணாவுக்கு போப்பாண்டவரைச் சந்திக்க ஐந்து நிமிடம் ஒதுக்கப்பட்டது.

மகாத்மா காந்தி பிறந்த இந்திய தேசத்தின் கடைக்கோடி மாநிலம் தமிழ் நாட்டின் முதல்வர் நான் என்று பேச ஆரம்பித்து தமிழர்களின் சிறப்பை எடுத்துச் சொல்லி ஐந்து நிமிடத்தில் தன் பேச்சை முடித்தார் அண்ணா.

போப்பாண்டவர் சொன்னார், அருமையாகப் பேசுகிறீர்கள் தொடர்ந்து பேசுங்கள்! தொடர்ந்து அண்ணா ஐம்பத்தைந்து நிமிடம் பேசினார். அண்ணாவின் பேச்சில் சொக்கிப்போன போப்பாண்டவர் அண்ணாவுக்கு நன்றி தெரிவித்து உங்களுக்கு என்ன பரிசு வேண்டுமென்றார்.

என்ன கேட்டாலும் தருவீர்களா..என்று கேட்டார் அண்ணா. கேளுங்கள் தருகிறேன் என்றார் போப்பாண்டவர்.

போர்ச்சுகல் தேசம் இந்தியாவின் கோவாவை ஆக்கிரமித்திருந்தது. போர்ச்சுகலின் ஆக்கிரமிப்பை எதிர்த்து போராடிய மோகன் ரானடே இன்றைக்கும்
போர்ச்சுகல் தலைநகரான லிஸ்பன் சிறையில் வாடுகிறார்.

உலக கிறிஸ்தவர்களின் தலைவரான நீங்கள் போர்ச்சுகலிடம் பேசி மோகன் ரானடேவை விடுதலை செய்ய வேண்டும் என்று கேட்டார் அண்ணா.

சரி என்று சொன்னார் போப்பாண்டவர். மகிழ்ச்சியோடு இந்தியா திரும்பினார் அண்ணா.

போப்பாண்டவரின் வேண்டுகோளை ஏற்று விடுதலை செய்யப்பட்ட ரானடே இந்திய தூதரகத்திடம் ஒப்படைக்கப்பட்டார்.

டெல்லி வந்த ரானடேவை வரவேற்க அன்றைய பிரதமர் அன்னை இந்திரா காந்தி விமானநிலையத்திற்குச் சென்றார்.

ரானடே அன்னை இந்திரா காந்தியிடம், யாருக்காகப் போராடினேனோ அந்த கோவா மக்களே என்னை மறந்துவிட்ட நிலையில் தமிழகத்தில் இருந்து என் விடுதலையை வேண்டிய திரு அண்ணாதுரை எங்கே என்று கேட்டார்.

அண்ணா மறைந்து விட்டார், அவர் கட்சியைச் சேர்ந்த பாராளுமன்ற உறுப்பினர் நாஞ்சில் மனோகரனை அழைத்து வந்திருக்கிறேன் என்று சொன்னார் அன்னை இந்திரா.

நாஞ்சிலாரைச் சந்தித்து விட்டு, நீங்கள் மிகவும் நேசிக்கும் கோவாவிற்கு செல்ல ஏற்பாடு செய்திருக்கிறேன் என்று சொன்னார் அன்னை இந்திரா.

உடைந்து போன ரானடே, நான் முதலில் செல்ல வேண்டிய இடம் கோவா அல்ல, அண்ணாவின் சமாதி தான் என்றார். அன்னை இந்திரா, ரானடே மற்றும் நாஞ்சிலாரை உடனடியாக சென்னைக்கு அனுப்பி வைத்தார்.

அண்ணா துயில் கொள்ளும் மெரினாவில் அழுது புரண்டான் ரானடே என்பது தமிழினம் மறந்த வரலாறு.

போப்பாண்டவரிடம் தனக்கென எதுவும் கேட்காமல் ஒரு போராளியின் விடுதலை வேண்டிய மனிதநேய மாந்தர்தான் நமது பேரறிஞர் அண்ணா.

நறுக்கென்று ஒரு கேள்வியை இறைவனிடம் ஒருவன் கேட்டான்....

காசில்லா பக்தனுக்கு தூரத்திலும்.....,
காசுள்ள மனிதனுக்கு அருகிலும்
காட்சி அளிக்கிறாயே இறைவா......!

இது என்ன நியாயம்????

கலகலவென சிரித்தான் இறைவன்

தாயிற் சிறந்தொரு கோயிலுமில்லை என்றேன்
நீங்கள் வணங்கவில்லை;

தந்தை சொல் மிக்க மந்திரமில்லை என்றேன்
நீங்கள் கேட்கவில்லை;

தூணிலும் இருக்கிறேன் துரும்பிலும் இருக்கிறேன் என்றேன்
நீங்கள் நம்பவில்லை;

ஏழைக்கு உதவுங்கள் அது எனக்கே செய்வது என்றேன்
நீங்கள் செய்யவில்லை;

எனக்கான இடத்தை,

எனக்கான நேரத்தை,

எனக்கான விழாக்களை,

என்னை வணங்கும் முறையை,

எல்லாம் நீங்களே முடிவு செய்தீர்கள்.....!

இப்போது எனக்குக் கட்டணத்தையும் வைத்து
என்னை காட்சிப்பொருளாக்கி விட்டு

என்னையே கேட்பது என்ன நியாயம் என்றான்????

Beautiful scenery with full of water

To all positive thinkers of this planet. If you believe in the power of positivity and it's manifestation, I request you to think of rains and abundance of water in your meditation for 1 min every day. You can also share it with other members who follow you. Instead of posting pictures of water scarcity, let's post pictures of rain, rivers, children playing in water, falls and oceans brimming. If the universe responds to our positive thoughts we will have abundant rain this year. Being overwhelmed with this positive idea and thought, here I am, starting this chain of positivity with a beautiful water pic !

V K Sharma, Head-PCG & Capital Market Strategy, HDFC securities, said, "For last two days, overseas investors have been pouring money in domestic equity and debt markets also helped rupee to remain strong during Wednesday's trade."

"Statement released by US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin saying that 'US-China trade deal is 90 per cent complete', has improved the sentiment in emerging market currencies," he said.Meanwhile, the 10-year government bond yield was at 6.93 per cent on Wednesday.Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net buyers in the capital markets, putting in Rs 1,157.87 crore Tuesday, provisional data showed.

Python program to convert kilometers to miles Kilometer

The kilometer is a unit of length in the metric system. It is equivalent to 1000 meters.
Miles:

Mile is also the unit of length. It is equal to 1760 yards.

Conversion formula:

1 kilometer is equal to 0.62137 miles.

Miles = kilometer * 0.62137
Kilometer = Miles / 0.62137
See this example:

# Collect input from the user
kilometers = float(input('How many kilometers?: '))
# conversion factor
conv_fac = 0.621371
# calculate miles
miles = kilometers * conv_fac
print('%0.3f kilometers is equal to %0.3f miles' %(kilometers,miles))

Python program to check if the input number is odd or even


# A number is even if division by 2 give a remainder of 0.
# If remainder is 1, it is odd number.

num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
if (num % 2) == 0:
   print("{0} is Even".format(num))
else:
   print("{0} is Odd".format(num))

Python program to find whether the number is positive and negative

num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
if num > 0:
   print("Positive number")
elif num == 0:
   print("Zero")
else:
   print("Negative number")

Python program for simple calculator

# Program make a simple calculator that can add, subtract, multiply and divide using functions

# This function adds two numbers 
def add(x, y):
   return x + y

# This function subtracts two numbers 
def subtract(x, y):
   return x - y

# This function multiplies two numbers
def multiply(x, y):
   return x * y

# This function divides two numbers
def divide(x, y):
   return x / y

print("Select operation.")
print("1.Add")
print("2.Subtract")
print("3.Multiply")
print("4.Divide")

# Take input from the user 
choice = input("Enter choice(1/2/3/4):")

num1 = int(input("Enter first number: "))
num2 = int(input("Enter second number: "))

if choice == '1':
   print(num1,"+",num2,"=", add(num1,num2))

elif choice == '2':
   print(num1,"-",num2,"=", subtract(num1,num2))

elif choice == '3':
   print(num1,"*",num2,"=", multiply(num1,num2))

elif choice == '4':
   print(num1,"/",num2,"=", divide(num1,num2))
else:
   print("Invalid input")

Python program to find the largest number among the three input numbers

# change the values of num1, num2 and num3
# for a different result
num1 = 10
num2 = 14
num3 = 12

# uncomment following lines to take three numbers from user
#num1 = float(input("Enter first number: "))
#num2 = float(input("Enter second number: "))
#num3 = float(input("Enter third number: "))

if (num1 >= num2) and (num1 >= num3):
largest = num1
elif (num2 >= num1) and (num2 >= num3):
largest = num2
else:
largest = num3

print("The largest number between",num1,",",num2,"and",num3,"is",largest)
