Ordnance Factories Day: A day to mark the establishment of first ordnance factory in India

The Ordnance Factory Board is celebrating 220th Ordnance Factory Day today and some of the worker's federations who are opposed to the idea of corporisation of OFB has asked that the day should be observed as Save Ordnance Factories Day. 

The day marks the foundation of the establishment of the first Ordnance Factory at Cossipore near Kolkata in 1801. The network of Ordnance Factories includes 41 factories which have been divided into five operational divisions of OFB and makes a defence production group having one of the widest range of products across the world. 

The government wants to corporatise OFB which has faced opposition from the workers federation of 41 ordnance factories and associated units across the country. 

The opposition has brought together many opposition parties who are favouring the workers. Despite all the opposition from three major federations, the Defence Ministry is continuing with the process.

Symbiosexuality: A new trend taking the Internet by storm

  Recently, a new form of sexual attraction called symbiosexuality has been identified by researchers. To put it in a simpler form, the term means that a person who has this kind of feeling is connecting themselves to the energy which is already shared between an existing couple.  People who are symbiosexuals find the energy of a partnership appealing and they also want to get involved in the same. They fall in love with the love which is already between two people and want to become a part of that love.

Normally, the third person in this relationship is treated poorly and is objectified a lot.  The research on this sexuality is still ongoing and many new findings might be identified after thorough research.

Women's Safety has been discussed worldwide for a very long time. However, the fact remains that women still remain a soft target for all the beasts around the world. If we talk about India, the country is soon becoming a criminal country where women are not safe and secure. Many of the cases against women remain unnoticed. The reason behind these increasing crime rates varies from person to person.  The fact remains that as we are developing the country's crime rate is also increasing. This is because many criminal cases go unnoticed as they are being implicated in the lower classes or people tend to ignore such news as they call it negative which has a bad impact on their mindsets. The police of our nation also salute those who have power in their hands despite the fact laid down by the Constitution that everybody is a criminal in the eyes of the law and you are not above the law.  Recently, a case happened in Kolkata where an on-duty doctor was raped and killed.
