THE UNINVITED (Indian After Partition)


I never gave thought on how drastically people are changing. The only way I can see humanity being defined is CART FULL OF HUSK­­­­ – dry, emotionless, and ignite into blazes by spark of information which can be fully or partially true or by one which has nothing to do with the truth. Last night’s event shook me from within.

“Who bought her here?”-Shouted a women shrieking voice, enough to make people near-by go deaf. Pitch high enough to give complex to an Opera singer. “I am here to attend my best friend’s marriage. She invited me.” Said the girl in low defensive voice. By now, people gathered around the two. “Don’t you understand my daughter invited you out of courtesy? You yourself should not have come here. You have Lung Cancer and it is highly communicable, especially for those who breathe in same air.” I saw people covering their nose and stepping back muttering among themselves that how insensitive and careless she is towards other member of society.

My glance flew from the crowd towards the girl being convicted. Oh my God! She is one of my close friends. She was supposed to be one the most beautiful girls in our neighborhood. Chubby cheeks, long beautiful hairs but all were gone. She was pale, skins-and-bones; she must be under medications. After constant nagging, she left the venue in tears.

Cancer is neither a communicable disease nor a social stigma to be ashamed of. It is caused by harmful changes (mutations) in genes. Only about 5 to 10 percent of cancers are caused by harmful mutations that are inherited from a person’s parents. The remaining 90 to 95 percent of cancers are caused by mutations that happen during a person’s lifetime as a natural result of aging and exposure to environmental factors, such as tobacco smoke and radiation.

Cancer can be both prevented and cured. Indulging in physical activities, eating right, maintaining right weight and not consuming tobacco products are some of the preventions while early stage detection, timely and consistency in treatment are few of the cures to name. Various government and non-government organizations like YouWeCan are extending their hands for eradication of cancer from its root. We also need to be compassionate and caring for the person suffering from cancer. Social exclusion only adds to their miseries and lowers their self-esteem.

Big-M Method and Two-Phase Method

Big-M Method The Big-M method of handling instances with artificial  variables is the “commonsense approach”. Essentially, the notion is to make the artificial variables, through their coefficients in the objective function, so costly or unprofitable that any feasible solution to the real problem would be preferred, unless the original instance possessed no feasible solutions at all. But this means that we need to assign, in the objective function, coefficients to the artificial variables that are either very small (maximization problem) or very large (minimization problem); whatever this value,let us call it Big M . In fact, this notion is an old trick in optimization in general; we  simply associate a penalty value with variables that we do not want to be part of an ultimate solution(unless such an outcome is unavoidable). Indeed, the penalty is so costly that unless any of the  respective variables' inclusion is warranted algorithmically, such variables will ...
