Amish is passionate about history, mythology and philosophy, finding beauty and meaning in all world religions. “A man becomes a Mahadev, only when he fights for good. A Mahadev is not born from his mother’s womb. He is forged in the heat of battle, when he wages a war to destroy evil. Har Har Mahadev – All of us are Mahadev.” Amish, The Immortals of Meluha. You have ‘read’ his printed words on paper. Now you can hear him in person as we engage in a dialogue on take-aways from history and his writings for our modern Indian lives. | ||||||||||||||

Traditional rivalry takes centre stage at Sultan Azlan Shah Cup
Traditional rivalry takes centre stage at Sultan Azlan Shah Cup
~ India play Pakistan tomorrow at 15:35 IST~
Ipoh, Malaysia, 11 April 2016: With medal hopes hanging in the balance, India take on Pakistan tomorrow, in an intense encounter in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup.
Five-time winners India, finished with the bronze last year, and have already won two out of their three encounters in the tournament, beating Japan (2-1) and Canada (3-1).
Pakistan on the other hand, have won just one game, beating Canada 3-1 before losing to New Zealand and Australia. They are currently sixth in the standings. Pakistan haven’t qualified for the Olympics in Rio this year, but are high on motivation to edge past their sub-continent rivals in Malaysia.
The two teams last faced each other at the FIH level at the HWL Semi Finals in Antwerp, with the game ending 2-2. India went on to the semifinals of the event, while Pakistan’s hopes of Olympic qualification were dashed by a loss to Ireland.
As it is with India-Pakistan encounters, the latest edition promises fine, skilful, attractive hockey. India’s strengths lies in their penalty corner conversion, with youngster Harmanpreet Singh grabbing his debut chance for the senior team with both hands. The drag flicker already has two goals in the tournament.
A win for India will see them make a strong case to enter the medal rounds, while a loss for Pakistan will more or less knock them out of contention.

R.Jio Case SC Order is One Wrong + One Wrong Is Right
April11, 2016 (C) Ravinder Singh progressindia2015@gmail.com
No one has predicted yet, whenever AMBANIs had engaged in Competition with Private Companies I had Flopped – Fall This Time Will Be Quicker & Biggest in the World – Investing $20b already in 4G Program – End up Losing $30b to $40b.
When UK auctioned 3G it offered Concessions to New Entrant and Twice More Spectrum because new Entrant was to be WIRELESS Only whereas established companies had Wire Lines also and UK was almost entirely connected by Wire Lines before Wireless Voice & Data services were introduced which are costly.
Reliance Jio has no WIRE LINE advantage THIS SHALL KILL ITS PLANS.
Supreme Court Order is Correct Because Reliance is Operating in A Different Spectrum and Deploying Different technology and 4G Auction was Open to Existing Telecom Players also. 4G was already introduced in the world with VOICE. Telecom Policy was always flawed – Companies with 2G Voice License were offering Data also.
FIRST WRONG – GoI ought to have allowed TELECOMS to ‘Automatic Upgrade to 3G & 4G’
SECOND WRONG – Reliance Jio Doesn’t Operate As INDEPENDENT Company that Give Full Disclosures & Pay Full Taxes – A Company with $20b Investment Should have raised Capital from Stock Market than RIL Illegally Funding it – operate 102 other subsidiaries.
Indian consumers had never gained from Reliance Manipulations & Monopoly. Reliance Refinery produce was retailed through PSU Petrol Pumps, Reliance Fabric was retailed directly under VIMAL Brand but still Cost More when bypassing all middlemen, Call Re-routing, Electricity Meters Rigging, Operating WLL as Mobile Teleservices, GettingCDMA and later GSM, all the Telecom IT Licenses but operated few, Hoarding on toEXCESS Spectrum & Optic Fiber Band Width etc.
Worst was allocation of 28 Offshore Oil & Gas Blocks when it had no skills. RIL engaged most powerful Deepest Riggs for Developing of Shallow wells in KG Basin. When P-52 of PETROBRAS in Deep Waters cost $1b or less RIL Billed $9b for Shallow Water near shore wells development. RIL hired most powerful rigs that can draw Oil & Gas from 14 kilometer distance – was reported by CAG to be drilling in ONGC and GSPC blocks.
My petitioning resulted in $2.5b Penalties but no Jail Sentence & Black Listing – RIL always got away with penalties – a fraction of public loss.
Telecom Bungling – R.Com Market Share 10.9%, GSM 8.9%
Monthly ARPU Rs.122 for QJune2014 to Rs.125 QSept2015
