Obama’s green signal to drill Arctic Ocean!
Sir,
It is not understandable why President Obama himself being a highly climate conscious personality has given green signal to Shell to drill two oil exploratory wells in the Arctic Ocean this summer!
Arctic Ocean in the Northern Hemisphere remains covered by ice most time of the year. It is one of the few places on our planet that yet to be touched. Due to rise in temperature and climate change effect the rate of arctic ice melting is increasing.
At this critical juncture, drilling in Arctic Ocean is too risky which even put our planet into great danger. May I request President Obama to review his decision and disallow Shell Oil from drilling wells in the Arctic Ocean in the greater interest of our planet and its people.

Combating ISIS
Sir,
ISIS’ psychological warfare involves the planned use of propaganda and other psychological operations to influence the opinions, emotions, attitudes and behaviour of its target areas or groups in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere.
The main objective of its warfare is to win through terror, without being engaged in full scale war or achieve a significant victory with fighting at a low scale. Reportedly it is successfully achieving its objectives by securing favourable position in relation with politics and nature of warfare.
Psychological warfare is the ISIS’ use and application of propaganda against the ‘enemy’ in combination with other operational measures of military, economic or political nature.
Its dread is so widespread because of efficient media techniques used with the help of scientific advancements like high speed printing as well as radio.
