Rohan Bopanna and Rajeev Ram promise exciting doubles action at Aircel Chennai Open 2013
Indo-U.S. pair all set to make the fight for the doubles
title tougher
FOR
IMMEDIATE PUBLICATION
Chennai,
December 26, 2012: Current World No.12 and ace doubles player Rohan
Bopanna will partner US-based Rajeev Ram at
the Aircel Chennai Open 2013, India’s only and South Asia’s leading ATP World
Tour tennis event. The tournament is scheduled to take place at Chennai’s SDAT
Tennis Stadium from December 31, 2012 to January 6, 2013.
The
formidable pair promises to add to the excitement in an event that has an
impressive line-up of 4 singles players from the top 20. The organisers
announced earlier that the country’s top doubles specialist Mahesh Bhupathi would
be teaming up with World No.5 doubles player Canada’s Daniel Nestor.
After
an impressive partnership that saw Bhupathi and Bopanna winning two titles at
Dubai and Paris and a runner-up finish at the just-concluded season-ending
London Masters, the duo recently announced their decision to play with
different partners in 2013.
Boppana
and Ram had earlier appeared as a team at the Australian Open in 2008, where
they proceeded to the pre-quarters defeating higher ranked teams along the way.
Given their complementary styles of playing and strengths in critical areas of
the sport, they are sure to make a great doubles pair in the season beginner.
Bopanna
is considered one of the best doubles players in the world and attained his
career-best ranking of eight in March 2012. He teamed with Bhupathi to compile
an impressive 34-22 match record and 2-3 in finals, and in the past has
collaborated wonderfully with players like Pakistan’s Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi and American
player Eric Butorac.
The
6 feet 4 inch Ram, on the other hand, captured his first ATP World Tour doubles
title in Chennai in 2009, and later in Bangkok with partner Butorac. He is a
talented singles and doubles player, and won the St Petersburg Open along with
Nenad Zimonjic earlier this year.
Commenting
on the announcement, Mr. Mr.
Karti P Chidambaram, Chairman – Tournament Organising Committee, Vice President
– AITA & TNTA said, “We are thrilled to welcome Rohan Bopanna
and Rajeev Ram as they begin their journey at the Aircel Chennai Open 2013.

nail-biting action and memorable moments to tennis fans around the world.”

each other's game well. We expect them to be a formidable threat at this year's
ACO, said, Tournament Director Tom Annear.

Conditioners at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi on 14th December 2012.
Hon’ble President Shri Pranab Mukherjee along with Shri Jyotiraditya Scindia, Hon'ble Minister of State for Power
presented the award to Mr. Manish Sharma, MD- Consumer Product
Division, Panasonic India. This award is organized annually by Bureau of

Power, Government of India.

Air
Conditioner is a product that a consumer would associate with high
electricity consumption in turn leading to high electricity bills. That
is why the consumers in the low to middle income group treat an air
conditioner as a high involvement purchase decision product. Having a
power consumption of 1530 W Panasonic TC 1.5 ton 5 star Jade series
gives you more energy savings over a non star rated
air conditioner in the long run. The energy conservation depends on the
input power, the running hours and the cost of per unit electricity. If
we compare Panasonic 1.5 ton Jade series having a power input of 1530W
with a 1.5 ton non star rated air conditioner
having a power input of 2510W, with 80% compressor being functional we
can easily say that the consumers will save up to 39.04 percent on their
electricity bill.
Panasonic’s
CS-TC18NKY/CU-TC18NKY, a 5 Star air conditioner is the winning product
in the consumer goods category. Several unique features in the
air conditioner make it highly efficient in energy conservation. The
Econavi mono sensor in the air conditioner can detect wasted energy and
automatically select optimum energy saving operation which leads savings
up to 20 percent. The High activity detection
feature automatically increases cooling power to improve comfort when
needed. The Anti Bacterial Filter which combines three effects in one:
anti allergen, antivirus & anti bacteria protection to provide 99
percent clean air for a healthy lifestyle. The Soft
Dry Mode starts with cooling to dehumidify and provides continuous
breeze at a low frequency to keep a room dry without much change to the
temperature. The anti-rust coating on the condenser and the super
tropical compressor make the product highly efficient
and help it perform well under high load conditions.
Panasonic
has long focused its efforts in India on developing the best products
possible for its Indian customers and employees. As a testimony
to that the company has recently inaugurated its first environment
friendly model factory in India in the town of Jhajjar, Haryana. It is
the largest manufacturing facility for Panasonic’s global operations yet
the factory will create almost zero waste. The
introduction of a number of eco-features in the Techno Park Jhajjar
factory, make it one of the greenest facilities Panasonic operates
globally.

Dear Naresh,
This weekend we showed our Government that we have had enough! I
joined thousands of citizens in Delhi at India Gate - it was inspiring
to see people, young and old, women and men, brave the cold, the water
cannons, the lathis and the tear-gas.
The very police that is supposed to protect civilians beat unarmed protesters. Women and children were not spared.
They think they can silence us! While
some steps have been announced by the Government, including the setting
up of fast track courts in Delhi, we believe this is not enough and
much more needs to be done.
Help us reach out to more voices from across India to support our demands. Sign my petition and share this mail with everyone you know.
We have already
reached over 75,000 signatures. I am following up on my request for an
appointment with the President and the Chief Justice of India but so far
have not heard from either office.
I hope to deliver our signatures personally. Can you help reach 1,00,000 signatures before that?
Thank you for your support,
Namita Bhandare via Change.org
PS: Forward this email this mail to everyone you know and help us reach 1,00,000 signatures.
PPS: Can you spare a few minutes to make some calls and add pressure?
