^^^ Thanks for the answer. The way I see it, GoI doesn't want to show any leniency towards the telcos for the fear of being charged with bribery. DoT did give some extra time (2 years?) and today SC got angry with that. Interpretation of the contract by SC may be OK when the issue is seen in a narro...

I am surprised by SC's attitude on the AGR issue, forcing Vodafone to go belly up and severely damaging Airtel's financial position. The obvious beneficiary is Reliance Jio.

Can somebody with better insights into the issue explain?

Found this in my twitter feed: Taiwan's innovation to prevent tax evasion

GoI should adapt similar ideas or come up with some original, creative mechanisms, instead of meaningless/ineffective tinkering in every budget.

^^^ Sure, there was public anger, but I don't think that was the reason. The police tried to cover up their inaction from the time the victim's family sought police help (around 11:00 pm) till the time a burning body was reported by a villager at around 5:00 am the next morning. Actually, it was muc...

What exactly is a "1 GW battery plant"? Is there some DDMitis somewhere here? Do they mean that they will produce enough batteries every second, to store 1 GJ of energy? Or is the plant going to consume 1 GW of power to make the batteries? Not making sense, somebody please enlighten me. E...

Since GoI got support of more than 2/3rd legislators in each house on the issue of making 370 inoperative, I wish it goes ahead in the next parliament session to make the constitutional amendment to completely remove it.

The plot is a bit confusing. Horizontal axis is time in seconds. White vertical axis shows rel velocity. What is the red vertical axis? Is it altitude? But it doesn't correspond to the read out.

This forum is becoming increasingly intolerant to views other than Modi/BJP bhajan. There used to be a time when people used to say "Indira is India". Now it has become "Modi is India" on this forum. For me no individual or party is above criticism. All have their warts. In 2014,...
