My understanding of it is that they want to give out max up to Rs 6000 per month or 72000 max additional income per year. So, a person with income of Rs 6000 per month will get Rs 6000 to make it Rs 12000. A person with Rs 8000 will get Rs 4000 from govt to make it Rs 12000. A person with income...

During the last elections, Modi vowed that they will get back black money from Swiss banks and deposit Rs 15 lac in everyone's bank accounts. They even let rumors spread that the Jan Dhan accounts are for that purpose. More recently, Nitin Gadkari clarified that they were just bullshitting...

That strategy works only for those who actively seek attention which is why it may work for people like Kejriwal and may be for more than a few monkeys of congress and local parties. But for the tyrants who desire nothing better than absolute obedience and silence, ignoring and keeping silent is...

This is how terrorists are manufactured in India these days. https://thewire.in/culture/times-of-india-jnu-najeeb-ahmed-isis https://indianexpress.com/article/india/bjps-fatehpur-mla-shares-fake-news-on-jnu-student-najeeb-joining-islamic-state-5080857/...

What else were you guys expecting? These politicians thrive on irrational grunts supporting them. Grunts don't have any ideology or opinion of their own and so are only good for spreading whatever somebody else says which obviously will also keep changing as their source keeps changing it. You...

Even a tenant can make a complaint against the society for such unlawful rules. Alternatively, a disgruntled owner can also file a complaint all of a sudden and then the society will have to pay back the money with interest. There is no harm in abiding by the law and having it as a optional...

I was assuming that a purifier with RO stage will have a pump built in to generate necessary pressure. You cannot rely on the pressure generated from running taps. In fact, I used a Aquagard UV Purifier at the last place I stayed and the pressure in tap was rarely good for us, so I had to have a...

The money they give out as bad loans also belongs to the people. With nationalized banks like SBI, it belongs to people who become part of vote banks for politicians. So, the govt would rather screw even more tax payers to bail out these banks.

What lesson? Given the 1.25 Lac crore worth of unpaid loans of Mukesh Ambani, whose money did Ericsson get in the end, while those brothers laughed their way out after skimping out a significant chunk of the payment. As for SBI, they will also do a settlement that is a minute fraction of the...

Are there any good RO + UV water purifiers that doesn't need to be hooked up to a running tap and will rather take water from a reservoir.

It's probably an AMC, not extended warranty. You need to pay each year for it. Depending on the contract terms the service covers the cost of repairs and in many cases, the cost of spares as well. If they cannot fuilfil this for any reason, their liability is to only return the amc cost. They...

People need to be more attentive about what they are getting into.

Does this even matter now? Almost all payment gateways and banking sites require to be on TLS 1.2 for PCI DSS compliance since Jul 2018. When we say that Win XP doesn't support TLS1.2, it means that Microsoft's own TLS engine SCHANNEL doesn't support it. Applications using a fairly newer...

I still don't understand whose ass all these people are pulling out the exact attack coordinates from for these debates? IAF has never confirmed any attack coordinates and I don't expect them to if they are still a professional defense organization. They only confirmed that they have met the...

- The fact that all the currency printed over months did not reach the people and we had to wait for weeks (depending on the city) to have new batches of notes printed and dispatched. In my case, I think it was 7-8 weeks before I got any new currency note. - RTI query which revealed...

That was because the govt wanted to ensure that BJP politicians and their business friends had no dearth of new currency to exchange for their black money at their friendly neighborhood SBI during mid nights. This was the reason for the severe shortage despite 8 months of printing the currency...

You are allowed to take up to 25K in cash form to foreign countries, but the issue I think is that mailing legal tender is not allowed in most countries. You can transfer money digitally or carry it in person without issues.

^^ Because cash may be required when you get back to India. You think credit card readers have any sort of reliability in India? My sister had twice had to resort to cash after landing in India when credit/debit cards failed her. My sister always keeps 10K in cash with her for such...

This is related to America, but makes a lot of sense in the Indian context as well.

The new currency notes were found in the hands of terrorists killed by our armed forces days before people got the first batches of he notes in banks. The fake notes of the new currency were also in circulation before people got their hands on the real notes. It makes clear that BJP politicians...
