COAI to DoT: Don't make BSNL, MTNL connections mandatory for govt staff — articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com

 

 

GSM industry body COAI has written to Department of Telecom (DoT) not to implement a proposal of "mandating only" BSNL and MTNL connections for government staff and enterprises as it would be "anti-competitive".

"We once again reiterate that any such move would be arbitrary, incorrect and unjustified and would be anti- competitive and against all principles of level playing field," COAI Director General Rajan Mathews said in a letter to DoT Secretary M F Farooqui.

In a bid to enhance the revenues of BSNL and MTNL, the government had proposed that union ministries, public sector undertakings and autonomous bodies give preference to the services of the state-run telcos.

Advantages? 

Faster Android updates? Motorola is fast. They released KitKat for Moto X before Google released KitKat for Nexus 4 right? 

18 month Android updates? Motorola might or might not support their devices for 18 months? Maybe they would beat Google with a longer support?

Photo Sphere capable camera? 

Disadvantages? 

You lose Motorola enhancements. Which are not that many on G as they are on X. 

... ... 

I hope Google launches this edition in India. Would be more interested in this compared to Motorola's version. 

I am not sure what I think about this...

 

 

On Tuesday, New Delhi police used tow trucks and a backhoe loader to drag away long concrete blocks from roads running past the embassy and leading up to gates of the compound, a Reuters witness said.

The low barriers had prevented vehicles from approaching the compound at high speeds and were presumably designed to help protect the embassy against attack from suicide bombers.

Why is the Congress so demoralized
 

 

The problem of dynastic parties is that their strength is co-existent with and co-terminus with the potential of that generation of the dynasty which controls the party. A Pt.Nehru or Indira Gandhi could carry on the party on the strength of their personality. If the contemporary generation does not have that potential, the party collapses because of inadequate charisma of that generation of the dynasty. A structured party with a galaxy of leadership and a defined ideology still survives even in adversity. A dynastic party will sink or swim with the dynasty.

"If you vote for AAP it means you are indirectly helping Congress through the backdoor...Modi only option," said Bedi, according to news report.

Would the D-Link DWR-113 3G Wi-Fi Router be a good option to use with YouBroadband? 

I'm looking at this router as an option so that I can have continuous connectivity with a 3G Reliance Netconnect+ dongle as a backup. Would anyone of you recommend this setup? 

Thank you!

Hi, I am currently using Tikona and very unhappy with the service. I have large drops in speed during the day and need to switch ISPs. 

I am based in Worli, more specifically near Hard Rock Cafe, and would like suggestions for an ISP. My usage is quite heavy, approx 200GB/month. Any Hayai users have feedback? I could only find flaming posts dated all the back in '11 and would like feedback from people who have actually used it.

An argument over texting at the movies ended in a cellphone user's death, when a retired police officer in the audience shot him at a theater near Tampa, Fla., on Monday afternoon, the authorities said.

Two couples were among patrons at a matinee of "Lone Survivor" at the Grove 16 movie theater in Wesley Chapel, about 20 miles northeast of Tampa, when one of the men, a retired Tampa police officer, got angry because the man in front of him was using his phone during the previews, despite being asked to stop several times, said Douglas Tobin, a Pasco County sheriff's office spokesman.

A witness told local television stations that the offended man stormed out to get a manager, but returned without one. The man using the phone explained to the irritated man that he was simply texting his 3-year-old daughter, the witness, Charles Cummings, told Tampa's FOX 13 television.

"Three seconds, four seconds later, the argument starts again," Mr. Cummings told reporters outside the theater. "Their voices start going up; there seems to be almost a confrontation. Somebody throws popcorn, I'm not sure who threw the popcorn, and, bang, he was shot."

hi Guys,

Its frustrating that BSNL is yet to launch truly unlimited 1/2/4 Mbps plans for < 1500Rs. Its perpetually offering 512Kbps speeds from last 4-5 years. Not only that, they are not even offering speed boost say after 6pm like MTNL does. Its not only about downloading torrents. Even if i want to watch Youtube files, I am not able to with 512kbps. They should start offering speed boost to 2/4Mbps at 6pm to 8am slot if offering the same at daytime is not possible. What can we do in this situation ? Can we all raise a CRM ticket at selfcare portal to demand this ?

Sanket.

I was drinking "WELL" water since kid and it turned out hard water almost a decade ago. Then started having METRO water(without chlorine) till now. That too not safe to drink coz it contains an oily substance when the water gets settled.

Now i've planned to use "WELL" water.

What should i go for? RO or UV? Both available in single unit?

India won't have misfortune of having Rahul Gandhi as PM: AAP's Kumar Vishwas | India Insight

 

 

"I don't think that India has the misfortune of him (Rahul Gandhi) ever becoming prime minister," Vishwas said in a telephone interview from Amethi district. "The direction in which the country is headed right now … things will only get worse (if Gandhi becomes PM)."

The poet-turned-politician is likely to contest from Amethi, a constituency from where Gandhi has won the last two parliamentary elections. An official announcement by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is a formality, Vishwas said.

"People who have made it this far on the basis of their family name … how can they lead this country?" he said.

Amethi has been a stronghold of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty with Gandhi's parents (Rajiv and Sonia) and uncle (Sanjay) having represented the seat in parliament. "This is a prince-versus-pauper battle … my fight is not against Rahul Gandhi, it is against this dynasty rule," the 43-year-old Vishwas said.
