Nobel Price, is it Nobel enough ?
by Sunit Kumar on Sep 24, 2008 03:10 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Nobel Price was suppose to mean a presitgious awards but as anything else, it has gathered dust, its like one of THOSE awards, like an OSCAR !!!

There have been claims where Indian's have been denied this OSCAR but thats not the point. To judge a person only on that basis is wrong.

Nobel by not giving Mahatma Gandhi the award made the award smaller than him, imagine if Gandhi would have have gone and taken the award ??

So lets take it with a pinch of salt.

Baba Ampte's donation of life to serve the lepers is not a noble laurate but Mother Teresa's leper service has granted her saint hood.

Humans are like that only !!

Gandhi was a useless impractical person who divided India into two and favoured Muslims and pakistan and this led to 5 millino deaths in partition and rioting, SOMOE PEACE ?
