Power Theft

In India, it looks like Power theft is quite unavoidable. Today's article in HINDU about the power theft by the Airtel's service provider for the erected tower was quite high. Power theft affects the government revenue and also affects the every consumer who also pays for the unaccounted power usage. Probably, government should think about privatization of the power distributed similar to the DISCOMs in Delhi, which is quite successful in revenue generation, reduced power tariff and also reduced power theft.

Democrazy

The horse trading of MP's happening in the Central is absolute idiotic. The trading demand by the convicted MP Shibhu soren to get the Coal ministry is extremum. Great economist like Manmohan Singh falling into the hands of dirty politician would take India backwards. Central government trying to avert the collapse by getting support from the parties to which they lost in the states. A shameful democracy. The article published in Independent, is a disgrace for us.

Do we really need an election in our country ?. Anyways, the opposition parties join hands to form the government by horse trading (so called post-poll alliance). Why to waste the large amount of money in elections?.

Who is the culprit?

An interesting article in Deccan Herald caught my eyes. The plaintiff said that he received a email asking him to be a partner (with the sender) to claim her father's deposit with Scotland Bank. He promptly accepted and deposited some Rs.7 lakhs with the account the person's attorney(as they say) mentioned. Not able to face the next demand of 8.5 lakhs he foxed the attorney and made him to send his representative to collect the cash. Apparently he was caught by the police based on the complaint.

The plaintiff would have taken this matter through legally or would have ignored. But Greed wins and he deposited the money. Who is responsible for his ignorance or his ill minded to become richer soon. He paid for his evil mind, I would say..

Police should have taken action against the plaintiff for not taking any legal action before he acts on the email.
