It turns out that airline safety videos can be nothing short of charming and delightful. Why have we all been putting up with boring videos all these years?

Raj’s Shame
Raj sat between Sunita and Sujata, his head bowed in shame. The Air India Purser knew that the two stewardesses were in effect guarding him after Sunita had caught her boss helping himself to a bottle whisky from the galley. Raj had initially tried to intimidate Sunita into forgetting what she had seen, but once the far more uncompromising Sujata turned up, the balance of power shifted and Raj had no option but to surrender to the two women. “You know we will have to hand you over to the police when we land in Mumbai, sir,” Sujata told her manager with a note of embarrassed regret in her voice, “and we should really tie you up for the rest of the flight too.”
“Please, Ms Gholkar,” Raj begged, staring at the carpet of the cabin, his words coming through gritted teeth to his deputy, “please don’t humiliate me in front of the passengers. I promise to behave.” And so it was, Raj Arora, former fast track manager, sat miserable and ashamed, between his two female captors until the plane landed and the women ended his career by turning him over to the Indian police. ‘How did it come to this?’ the functioning alcoholic Raj sadly asked himself. ‘I am the prisoner of women. I can’t stand it.’

Just reminding myself that the last four cases of peeing on passengers inside an airline was all by Indians.
I know four isn't a good enough number to generalise but it's only us. No person in the entire world thought of peeing on a passenger. Not one. But four of us did. Is something wrong with us?

With India poised for a second wave of privatisation of industries, starting with Air India earlier this year, and a new National Education Policy pushing for increased PPP initiatives in education, activists feel the trends may not bode equally well for women across strata. “All private institutions, especially those providing technical, medical or managerial courses, charge exorbitantly high fees. Studies show that women are less likely to be considered for education loans and there is a clear preference for male children among most marginalised households, urban or rural, when it comes to education,” women’s rights activist and educationist Zakia Soman says. Soman also pointed out that falling education levels among girls can directly be linked to falling participation of women in the labour force, and consequently, poor healthcare among women. “We have failed to make education widely accessible even after 75 years of Independence,” says Soman. “This is a failure of the government and to top it, there is privat­isation. Girls were left out of even government schools,” says Soman. “There are a host of reasons for that, including safety, inaccessible geography, etc. But when it becomes an expensive affair at a private school, they are even more likely to be denied.”
