Re: Nukkad
^^ Yeah, and the easy award from the hon SC for BLR's drinking water means no incentive for BBMP to develop alternate/water sources. More lakes will perish to the builder mafia, after all Kaveri thai is there to keep giving. This also means no incentive to develop other cities in hinterland KA, so T...

^^ Aren't there WTO restrictions on blocking countries? If the US can fight India on solar panels, why couldn't the Chinese do the same w.r.t. US telecom policy?

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
For those who think Modi does not do enough on Hindu issues, or does not care, who brought the Yogi as UP CM? A strong mandate did result in something strong, didn't it? Yes, the 2014 LS was a strong mandate, but was it on based on Hindu issues, unlike in UP? The LS was a strong mandate against corr...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
So karthik wants BIF to win, he is a BIF man. Saar, this is the age old Hindu tendency of making best the enemy of good enough, and in the process, let in the worst through the door. How I wish people use this time of a "not good enough" Modi to build and entrench an ecosystem that is unabashedly I...

Re: Health Care & Medical Practice in India
On what basis are the protesting doctors call Ayurvedic and other streams as quacks? They are also trained in their respective fields, and will still need a bridge course to gain qualification. I have never heard of an Ayurvedic "quack", it's usually assumed to be an MBBS type. Given the quality of ...

To people who use ORR for your daily commute in BLR, any help in identifying which sections of ORR are being closed/jammed for white topping would help immensely. Thx...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
bugging an opposition politician's home is not lightly done in a democracy like ours. the venue was very carefully chosen and I dont think it was bugged. You're right, that's why the government cannot reveal anything even if they did. But I am sure MSA is on our intel agencies' sights after his "su...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
We are assuming that RAW wasn't snooping in on the meeting. On what basis? Maybe the government knows that nothing actionable was said, or revealing our ability to snoop was not worth it. So do the next best thing, score a political point. Politically, I don't think we have heard the last of it.

My thoughts are similar to Singha saar's on this. There definitely was a formation that was later made into a road, a long time ago (Ramayana time and earlier), and went under once the sea levels rose up. According to one estimate I recall reading on BRF or some other forum, the Ramayana could be as...

But - there is NO sentence in the law that "Govt will protect all PSU banks' deposits". There is no such sentence because it already exists. In law. Since 1962.

But, I like the movie a lot. A great set of special effects to recreate a coal mine and its tragical flooding. Keep in mind, it was a film made in the seventies, when there was no animation or CGI.

In a country like India it is not that easy. First step is to link everything to Adhaar, verify and for system to stabilize for every citizen.
