I read a moving story of a bear cub that could not endure its mother's death and died. The news story appeared in Times of India, yesterday.
This incident took place in Coonoor, a hill station in India. The four-month-old bear cub died of shock soon after her sick mother breathed her last on Friday night.
The mother bear is reported to have died of internal bleeding due to infections in her lungs and intestines. The veterinary doctor who performed the autopsy on the mother bear said that he has come across a few such cases in the past.
I was unable to digest the tragic news for several hours after I read the news. The bears are supposed to live a life of closely affectionate family.

Reliance on a massive recruitment drive.
The Indian giant Reliance Communications is on a massive recruitment drive as can be seen on advertisements on local news papers and magazines.
They are looking for smart executives, telemarketers and field sales personnel. They sell mobile phones, wireless internet connections, landline telephone connections, broadband internet connections and a load of other products and services.
The job market in India looks very rosy and remunerative too thanks to various Government policies.
On a selfish note, I am glad the share price of Reliance Petroleums has gone up more than 40%. I bought 100 shares at the rate of Rs.72.00 Today it is traded at Rs.114.00
