For those who visit Tirupati just for the two laddoos that come free with the darshan ticket, extremely sorry. No more. Be prepared to shell out Rs 10 per laddoo, after queuing for hours together and getting a darshan that hardly lasts for a second. And tell you what, there is a ration of two per devotee. The Thiumala Thirupathi Devasthanam (TTD) has made the change stating that the free laddoos were cutting into the temple’s annual budget of Rs 40 crore. Things became far worse when they noted that there was black marketing. Nearly tow lakh laddoos are prepared each day by the TTD. Over 60,000 devotees visit the shrine every day. The delightful sweet rolls of ghee, camphor and cardamom might rake in the moolah but this recent decision will definitely be difficult for the devotees to digest.

Quick put down
General Deepak Kapoor is a prolific speaker and is known for being politically correct always. But on December 18 at a press conference on human rights at the Institute for Defence and Strategic Analyses in New Delhi, he accused the media of highlighting human rights violations by his troops in the northeast and in Jammu and Kashmir, while ignoring atrocities of terrorists on civilians. The statement didn’t go down well with his boss, Defence Minister AK Antony. He told reporters that the top brass of the armed forces should ensure that no violation of human rights took place at any level. The media is doing their job, he said. He further added that though cases of human rights violations by security forces have been rare, even a single instance of human rights violation is totally unacceptable. Well, that was quite a pointed statement.

Leaders in most wanted list
Initially, it was the freedom fighters. Then it was corrupt men with pending cases. But now in Sagar district in Madhya Pradesh, being a eunuch is the ideal qualification for a politician. Fed up with the nepotism of BJP MP Bhupendra Singh and Congress MLA Govind Singh, the people elected eunuch Kamala Bua as mayor with an incredible record of 70% votes. The opponents forfeited their deposits. To teach the incompetent politicos a lesson, the people plan to form a committee to look for eunuchs to replace the existing leaders. The state had already seen a eunuch Shabnam Mausi being elected MLA from Shahdol and another Kamla Jaan being elected mayor of Katni.

All is well that ends well?
Jairam Ramesh never fails to surprise. Guess what he did this time, the environment minister entered the Japanese delegation’s office at Copenhagen unannounced. He wanted to make amends for having kept his Japanese counterpart waiting at the Indian delegation’s office earlier, while he was at another meeting. Hence the impromptu decision to walk down to their office to meet their minutest detail were taken aback and took some time to come to grips with the situation. They had planned the meeting of the two ministers at the Indian delegation office right down to where the official photographer would stand and had even conducted a mock drill to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Much ado about air
The air we breath is not safe anymore and if some recent reports are anything to go by, it is suggested that in a couple of years’ time the air will become so dangerous that it would cause innumerable breathing problems. I don’t know how many of you are aware of that fact but this is the truth. Ominous I know but you don’t have to fret anymore as air purifiers have been invented. With air purifiers around, we can breath pure air. Thanks to technology. Fact of the matter is air purifiers remove 99.97% of particulates in the air, in your home or business. Even using indoor air purifiers for pet smells, tobacco smoke, a dusty house, or if you have a medical sensitivity to something that gets in the air, will be of great help to you. If you have any plans of buying an air purifier, do it right now. Better late than never.
Prestigious queen?
Queen Victoria definitely would have been impressed. Almost 109 years after she died, she has actually influenced a case in the High Court. The Kolkotta Municipal Corporation had allowed parking along the Hooghly river, which the Kolkotta Pot Trust objected. Finally, a deed signed by Her Majesty in 1874 was produced in court, which specified that she had handed over the disputed land to the CPT.

Prints made easy
What do requestors do when they are in need of visiting cards or business cards? Well, they need to raise a request through an application tool and send it to the approver who views the request and decides whether or not to approve it. But fact of the matter is these requests raised by the requestors are approved 9 out of 10 times and it’s very unlikely that they reject it. Even if they reject it, it might be due to a simple reason. After they amend it, they send it back for approval. Once approved it is forwarded to the purchase order centre for the request to be processed. As soon as the order is ready, the copy of the order containing the cheap business cards is sent to the vendor/supplier and the requestor. The vendor acknowledges the order and then starts working on it. He tries to dispatch the order within the stipulated time and on or before the delivery date, the requestor should hopefully receive the product. The supplier apprises the requestor in case of any delays. This might be a time consuming process but this is how the activity is carried out, if a requestor needs an item at a cheaper rate.
