There are a large number of kinds of chemotherapy, depending on the cancer, how far it has spread and the treatment regime.

Satyagraha – the abused spiritual weapon – By Hemantha Abeywardena Mahatma Gandhi with Jawaharlal Nehru (Image Source: archives.dailynews.lk) Source:- dailynews.lk If you have a penchant for reading, grab a local or regional newspaper from South Asia and you hardly miss this news: a folk switching to fasting mode to fight for his rights – lost, abused or existence of which he was unaware, until he had a brainwave or a lawyer did a wink at him. It is worth looking into the fact how this phenomenon caught on, in the Indian subcontinent; so soon and so fast. The influence of fashion industry sheds some light on this mystery. Teenage boys in the Western capitals, now put on a special form of trousers: it is a cross between the old-bell bottom and the garment worn by prison inmates, something to be worn far below the waist line. Follow a youth in ...

Katchatheevu between India and Sri Lanka – Let it not become a point of friction-by N.S.Venkataraman A view from Katchatheevu Island, Sri Lanka. Source:Slguardian Katchatheevu, a 285-acre uninhabited island in the Palk Strait, between India and Sri Lanka, and about 33 km from the Indian coast, has suddenly become a matter of acrimonious debate in India today, as Indian parliamentary elections will take place in the next few days. Claim on Katchatheevu: There have been claims by both Sri Lanka and India, both of which were under British rule for several centuries, about the ownership of Katchatheevu for a very long time. Finally, a settlement was reached in 1974 when the Government of India agreed that Katchatheevu would be part of Sri Lanka, meaning that India has given up its claim on Katchatheevu. While it was thought that the matter had been settled once and for all, there has been ...
