The Great Telecom Circus

The Great Telecom Circus Government of India is thinking for pan India license and also discussing the possibilities for companies who dont want to pursue mobile operations to surrender their license. This will lead to a potential mobile call rates escalation all over the country. Currently there are over 15 operators in some of the circles. Considering this move of Government, it will result in few bigger operators and will wipe out the smaller companies which currently have operations in some of the 22 circles of our great country. So who will be benefitting from this situation.Obviously Government. Lets see how. If the existing smaller telecom companies merge with the bigger companies, there will be tax benefits to Government. If they return the license to Government, Government will have additional spectrum which Government can sell at market rates given the hue and cry concerning the 2G scam. Also license fee is given by the companies. As competition will reduce, so the call rates in existing markets will go up. So is this the end of Great Indian Telecom circus.

Rahul Gandhi Same as Feroze Gandhi ?

Rahul has never fought real elections. Standing from Amethi, which has been a traditional Congress hub is nothing. Even a small minion from Congress will win the seat from Amethi. What great achievement he has accomplished. Recently he sat at dharna against the tyrannies of UP government. Where was he when there was lathi charge against Baba Ramdev supporters. He see only problem with other states where there is non-Congress government.
Why he is not speaking of Maharashtra which is currently rocked by Adarsh Land Scam. I wonder where is the blue-eyed boy of Congress when the Congress is rocked by Lokpal Bill, CWG scam, 2G scam, NREGA scam, Antrix Case and many others. Why is he not open about those cases. Why don't he protest against them. I wonder if he can act like his grandfather Feroze Gandhi which exposed Congress double standards and led to the nationalization of insurance companies into LIC.

Lets see what future holds for AICC and India. I am welcome for all the Bricks and Bats. Use the comment section.

Political Clout of Family

It is said that, movies are a mirror image of society. They portray the current events happening in our lives. Sometime back, I saw a movie in which, a High Court judge was pressurized to give judgement in a person’s favour because the person was connected to the main political party in the state and they had kidnapped his wife and son.

Currently it seems, the same drama is going on in the centre, with the Supreme Court Judges being changed for Kanimozhi bail case. The current judges have taken recluse from the case and new judges are being appointed for the case. The case will be heard on this Monday. Meanwhile Kanimozhi’s mother is in Delhi to support her. And remind of the movie “No one Killed Jessica” in which Manu’s mother keeps on asking his husband “Mere Manu ko kuch nahi ho chahiye”. CBI is asking that bail should not be given to Kani as she can influence the witness. No wonder if she is given bail on Monday as the Judges have been changed. Such is the political clout of the family, may be the judges are in fear. Let’s see, what happens on Monday. My Lord, till then I rest my case.

Update: SC denies bail to Kanimozhi and Sharad kumar. They can apply for fresh bail application.
