We have no clue from where exactly they get funded to buy various weapons loaded with the latest and cutting-edge technology that even our forces do not have.Now, a name will come up with a great loud….Pakistan. ...

The e-commerce giant, Amazo.com, now seems to be getting entrapped into the margin-crushing war as it is going to offload costs onto suppliers and reduce the number of single, low-cost items buyers can purchase. The whole change is being made just to offset the blooming shipping costs.In a major move in strategy, Amazon is increasing the transportation fees for a supplier of diapers, beverages, and other heavy products that go beyond the affordable range for the giant to deliver.Moreover, Amazon will probably put an end to the selling of tiny products like soap, toothbrushes, nail paint or a lipstick unless ...

Recently, Mitchel Starc fueled the debate over the use of the pink ball in a day/night tests. He said, “It's definitely not a red ball, " Starc said. "It doesn't react anything like the red ball, in terms of swing and the hardness of it anyway. It goes soft pretty quickly, I didn't see a huge amount of reverse swing in that game and I don't think it swung from memory too much until the artificial light took over. It definitely reacts very, very differently to the red ball.”On the contrary, the makers of the ball claim that they are ... Read More

I don't know why but it's a fact that we Indians have the never-cured itch to poke celebrities. We, sometimes, even see their goodwill through the glasses of suspicion and in order to just show our despair we forget the stature of that person, his achievements, sacrifices and his effort to make us proud for our nation through every step he takes. Yes, I strongly believe that Sachin Tendulkar is among those rare human beings who never try to cash in on their celebrity status anyway. We used to trouble him when he was playing his game by constantly shouting......RETIREMENT, ... Read More

But the comic part is they keep on extending the last date to link. All this fuss made me ponder upon the following questions in −Why is the government pushing Aadhaar insanely?How much safe our Aadhaar card is?Why do I have to link my Aadhaar card to other services?Why ...
