Idea STD charge slashed in Kerala

Idea Cellular is heavily advertising over TV that it's STD charges are reduced from current 2.75 Rs per month to 1.30 Rs per month.Roaming charges would be Rs 1 per minute and 1.5 Rs for STD while Roaming.They are saying that from 9th May 2008 onwards all existing and new subscribers can avail this facility.

But in small letters in all print and TV ads ,there is something written.To avail this facility the user need to SMS "NEWSTD" to 55101.Now you send the sms and get back a message saying "Your request has been received.The new Prepaid std tariff of Rs 1.3 /- per minute will be activated within 48 hrs."

So wat is this all about.Is it for technical reasons?Certainly NOT.....The Electronics Engineer in me tells...........

It is just that idea cellular want to rob the subscribers who see from the news paper or hears from radio or TV that their std rates are going slashed from friday may 9 2008 and start making STD calls to their dear ones (or others).The IDEA's idea is to cheat it's users.

What a WICKED idea!

ELECTION COMMISSION OF INDIA’S VOTERS ID CARD DUPLICATE APPLICATION PROCESS

I lost my voter id card issued by the election commission of india. I lost it along with the driving license in 2007. I took Duplicate Driving Licence from the same RTO in 2008.Now I have been postponing the efforts to take duplication voters id card due to various reasons. One election came in between and election people were giving duplicates but I didn’t went. Now local body election happens in Kerala.

Generate your online e-aadhaar card easily

Aadhaar Demystified Aadhaar ,meaning foundation in indian languages, has become a hall of shame or an object of inconvenience for the common man (aam aadmi). Despite a prominent personality like Mr. Nandan Nilekani at it's helm, India's aadhaar project is an epic fail. UIDAI or unique Identification Authority of India is a ghost body created by the central government.It is yet to get complete legal and constitutional status to discriminate people by providing gas subsidy {LPG subsidy for domestic use} only to aadhaar holders. Why India needed an ID System? India was in the dark about it's own citizen.Infiltration from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Srilanka happens all the time.Politicians provide illegal immigrants (a large chunk are run away criminals and terrorists) with indian election id cards inexhange of votes / money. Some crooks were eating up subsidies designed to reach deserving common man [aam aadmi] by forging fake documents and multiple accounts. ...
