Stop communal, divisive and hate politics - Petition

03/17/09 16:48 - indian

Moderator's Note #1: Not deleting this post to showcase it as an example of something that may not fit one or more of our posting guidelines. Praja posts should be fact driven (not opinions), and should be local in "real" sense. Local is something at the level of mains and crosses, or citizen's issues specific to a given city. We are not here to discuss nationwide issues or ideologies because we can't realistically do much about them, at least not right now. Also, posts should not be pure promotion of your favorite websites (please do that via your profile, or signature, but not posts). Remember, the philosophy we promote is "think and act local, really really local", that is how all changes begin.

Waiting for the new Reva?

03/15/09 14:59 - silkboard

The advertisements of electric bikes and scooters were everywhere when petrol prices were up in the sky. I wonder how are the sales now. Reva too was running ads back then, but no big news about them recently either. Talking of Reva, after reading around a bit (because I was considering buying it), speaking to a few folks who have also been interested, and two owners, here is what I learned:

State gets its ‘act’ together, hopefully

Moral policing, Ragging, Corruption and Angst

03/15/09 05:18 - jennypinto

According to Soli Sorabji, the supreme court called ragging a “ violation of Human Rights”, while a Prevention of Ragging in Colleges and Institutions Bill was introduced in Rajya Sabha in 2005, has not been enacted yet. That surely brings a feeling of outrage and helpless in many of us in this country.
