Rs.2/kg rice scheme was floated by NT Ramarao during '96 state elections in Andhra Pradesh. Since then the concept has caught up with few other south Indian states aswell.

Even as Harley Davidson continues to mull whether it should set its foot in India, Italian motorcycle maker Ducati Motor Holding SpA has taken the plunge...
AM, there cannot be any valid point if the important reason behind the issue is not revealed. I don't know what "specific points" you see in author's argument. The first half of the article is devoted in comparing India/Pak's inflation figures at different dates and second half gives a list of...
Indian economy to grow by 8.5-8.8 pct in FY09 - NCAER
Tue May 6, 2008 5:31pm IST
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - The Indian economy is expected to grow by 8.5-8.8 percent in the 2008/09 fiscal year with stable interest rates but inflation may be higher than last year, an economic think-tank said on...
AM, valid or invalid there shouldn't be an argument here. Frankly to me it seems that the author is simply giving an apologetic explanation as to why there is a huge difference between inflation figures of Pak & India. Ideally speaking there shouldn't be too much of a difference between WPI and...
The author has overlooked the important reason for the WPI based inflation calculation. Pakistan, US, UK, Canada, Singapore, China of all the countries that he has mentioned unlike India none of them have a public distribution scheme not to mention other hell lot of subsidies provided by the...
I agree with you.. It is absolutely impossible to man a whole border. But Kashmir is a mountainous terrain & whatever I've learned is that it is not possible to breach the border from just anywhere. Incursion can happen only through certain porous channels. So maybe, spy satellites can be useful...
If this is the highest resolution of the image then it wouldn't help much in monitoring the border. Good to track down the mass movement of troops but not so effective against the sneekers.
A security guard or a tourist guide whose personal details & work history records are with the hotel or agency hiring him is far less likely to do anything as such than a stranger on the street.
US Marines have been regularly accused of rape.. In 2005 Dr. Shazia Khalid was raped by a senior...
Neo, check the third image on the right hand panel of the link below
Airport Technology - Rajiv Gandhi (Hyderabad) International Airport, Andhra Pradesh
Although it does look very similar but I doubt if a prestigious website like Airport Tech would make a blunder as such.
Sir, CNN is regularly showing the news of how apologetic Austrians are over the incident. But, its true!! it can happen anywhere in the world. Governments anywhere do not have control over psychotic minds. Similarly, in India if somebody is still living in 18th century then what can one do...
Congrats to ISRO & all the scientists involved in the successful mission.
Malay, could you tell me if the same process can be adopted by DRDO to MIRV Agni-III? I am not a defence buff but I guess the technical aspect involved should be same in launching 10 satellites & 10 warheads apart from...
I can't be sure but maybe the initial test conducted with dummy warhead is only used to map the contours of the trajectory of the missile. Thereafter, the mapped trajectory is used to perform simulations with various warheads. Its only then the actual range can be known. The range mentioned...
I don't think it is fair for Pakistan to compare itself with India or "attempting to catch up" with India in IT.
First of all IT is a fairly new discipline & there is still tremendous scope. Up until now, not even 5% of the world's total IT requirements have been fulfilled. So, the pie...
Unfortunately, In India things don't work that fast. The doctor has been suspended & as long as he remains suspended he would still keep getting half the income for that period. The enquiry commission would be setup to look into the whole matter. Notice would be issued to the alleged doctor to...
