Laudable Performance!#

India began their World Cup campaign in style. And the victory brought in cheer for everyone across the country and to millions of people of Indian origin living across the globe. The fact that India bounced back after a terrible tour down-under to hand a defeat to the talented Pakistani side last Sunday is laudable. That's our word of the week: laudable. 
Laudable means praiseworthy or commendable. It is about showering praise to someone who deserves it.

Public Conduct and Probity

Politicians, being what they are, get on to verbal duels accusing one and an other of not being upright. This pitch gets shriller when there are elections round the corner. The Delhi elections saw issues of integrity and uprightness being debated on almost all public platforms by the candidates and their supporters. Every politician expects the other to conduct himself or herself with  probity. That's our word of the week - Probity. It's a noun that reflects honesty, integrity and uprightness. Right form conduct to the declaration of funding for election campaigns were taken as matters of probity.
