    I had read in the Mumbai Mirror about this initiative called Meter Jam. Because strikes need a strike back!  We’re tired of meter that always reads more than it should, drivers who refuse to ply and demand return fare whenever they want. And if all that wasn’t enough, now we have to deal with strikes…

    I came across this title in today’s DNA Money. Certainly interesting, because it says a lot about how negatively positive comment that is… DNA quoted Morgan Witzel as saying this. Morgan Witzel is the author of the book Tata – The Evolution of a Corporate Brand. We all know what the Brand Tata stands for…

    Sensex may take a plunge by the end of April following cues from the International Markets. Trade and other services were recently hit by the Airspace closure in Europe and it has affected many businesses as much as the travellers alike.

    The Media is seemingly playing games. I fail to understand that why are they doing this. Ofcourse there was a reason to worry but why such hysteria?

    Its been some years now that we are facing this linguistic divide. Tamil Nadu being the first state to give its regional language more importance than the National Language.

    If this had happened, the petrol price would have set us back by INR 90 for a liter when the crude oil touched $150 per barrel. In India, Petrol and Diesel prices are subsidized so that common man can affort it. But a free market will mean boom for petrol companies than for the Common…

    Well, this isnt what the Noble prize committee saying… but our own Environment Minister Mr. Jairam Ramesh’s words.

    Indians have something against China and the same vice-versa. When the world’s most powerful man tells China to oversee the peace talks between India and Pakistan, it would ofcourse anger the Indians. Zee News reported: The Ministry of External Affairs said that it had objections to Obama giving China a greater role in South Asian…
