Sikkim Earthquake 2011 is one of the most devastating for the North Eastern State of India. The Sikkim Earthquake on 6.8 on Richter Scale occurred almost 20 kilometers deep inside the earth crust and jolted Northern India spanning from Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal, Nagaland, Manipur and also jolted neighboring countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Tibet (China).
Since the epicenter of the Sikkim Earthquake was on India Nepal border, therefore death toll has been more in Sikkim. Sikkim Earthquake has snapped almost all lines of communication and transportation system in Sikkim. The monsoon has also played havoc in the hilly state where entire connectivity across districts and state capital is only through roads.
Earthquake in Sikkim is one of the most damaging in India earthquake history. Sikkim is a mountainous state, and is on the cradle of Himalaya mountain range and hence, the damage of life and property is more. Government of India is extending every possible support to the Government of Sikkim, so that loss to life can be minimized to least.
Rescue operation in the Sikkim earthquake has become problematic because of snapping of road network and because of rainy season, air service has also been severely restricted. The actual extent of the damage in Sikkim earthquake would be known once, rescue teams would be able to reach remote corner of the state.

Unemployment in United States
With the onset of downturn in the United States economy, unemployment in United States is increasing at alarming rate. President Barack Obama is making whirl wind round of all growing economy to increase the job prospect for American’s in worldwide. After 2008 downturn and recession across world, United States has been greatly affected by it and unemployment in United States has increased more than 9% in recent times.
According to Bureau of Labor Statistics in United States, price rise is badly affecting unemployed people in United States. The growth rate of jobs in United States has been negative in calendar year 2011 in comparison to calendar year 2010. Business Employment Dynamics, which measure proportion of job increase in a quarter in United States has estimated that gross job gain fell from 7.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 5.7 million in the first quarter of 2009, which is a shocking 24.6 percent decline.
As per statistics, unemployment in United States is alarming, and as President Barack Obama has already shown his interest for 2012 Presidential Election in United States, therefore, he is targeting to control menace of unemployment in United States. In fact, to check the upward going rate of unemployment in United States, President Obama is proposing a budget cutting program, and plans to invest the amount in various sectors to increase the job prospect for common Americans.
This amount is expected to be in the tune of $ 418 Billion and would create numerous jobs in Defense, Pharmaceuticals, Banking, Infrastructure, Healthcare, Education and many more. The opponent of President Obama, have in fact come up with a different argument for investing the money in preferred sectors, which would increase the low end multiple jobs for more number of people in United State, which would ultimately check the unemployment in United States and stopping outsourcing of such jobs to China, India, Philippines and African countries.
However, only the time will tell, how these measures will going to control the unemployment in United States, but definitely, if this problem in unemployment front is not controlled at the earliest, it would impact President Obama’s candidacy for President Ship in 2012. Let us hope for the best that unemployment in United States can be brought down a level, which would improve the overall scenarios of world economic order.
