Just came across this article in Economic times <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/wealth/invest/hurry-this-lic-pension-scheme-that-can-provide-rs-10000-a-month-will-end-march-31/articleshow/74209003.cms">https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/wealth/invest/hurry-this-lic-pension-scheme-that-can-provide-rs-10000-a-month-will-end-march-31/articleshow/74209003.cms</a><br />
<br />
A simple google search, I found out these facts about Pradhan Mantri Vaya Vandana Yojana.<br />
Turns out this scheme is a wonderful pension plan for people above 60+ age<br />
<br />
Minimum investment = 1.5 lakh. monthly pension = Rs. 1,000 **<br />
Maximum investment = 15 lakh monthly pension = Rs15,000 **<br />
Mimimum age of applicant = 60 years<br />
Maximum age of applicant = Nil<br />
<br />
The investment amount will be returned after 10 years to the investor or Nominee.<br />
<br />
Bad news: As per the above economic times article, this scheme is not getting extended after 31st March 2020. So hurry up and inform all retired people you know to invest in this plan.<br />
<br />
BTW. it yields 8% per year. Which I think is the highest in current scenario.<br />
<br />
This scheme can be bought either online or offline.<br />
<br />
Discliamer:<br />
1. All above information is collected by simple google search details may vary.<br />
2. I am not responsible if he LIC agent misguides you and makes you buy some other scheme. I suggest people to go to LIC office and buy this scheme directly instead of calling their known agent.<br />
<br />
** There is small difference in investment amount if the mode of pension payment is not monthly.<br />

that British left India because it was economically in a very bad condition
after the World War II. But as Kids we were taught in school that India got independence
because of Gandhi’s Nonviolence movement or Quit India movement. But 99.99% of
the Indians today do not know the truth. </span></div>

I don't understand What is the message going out to the people who are mentally prepared and have decided to die for their so called cause. Dying by gunshot or getting hanged after months of court trail and days in Jail makes no difference to them.<br /><br />The minister says we can take stern action? what is the stern action sir?? he is stating that "We can take stern action...." I don't get what is that stern action? Do you think getting a death sentence from court after 17 months is a stern action?<br /><br />On the other side Home minister Chidambaram is proud of the system since Kasab was convicted in a normal court of law.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Kasab-verdict-a-clear-message-to-Pak-based-terror-outfits-Antony/articleshow/5903682.cms</span>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-53266466720559420172010-04-23T06:02:00.000-07:002010-04-26T04:29:17.815-07:00Social networking + Strong, weak and temporary ties..Check out the research done by Paul Adams, user research lead @ Google.<br />Download and see the following presentation<br /><br /><div style="width: 425px;" id="__ss_3686643"><strong style="display: block; margin: 12px 0pt 4px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/padday/bridging-the-gap-between-our-online-and-offline-social-network" title="Bridging the gap between our online and offline social network">Bridging the gap between our online and offline social network</a></strong><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=iasummit2010publicpdf-100410201613-phpapp01&stripped_title=bridging-the-gap-between-our-online-and-offline-social-network"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=iasummit2010publicpdf-100410201613-phpapp01&stripped_title=bridging-the-gap-between-our-online-and-offline-social-network" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div style="padding: 5px 0pt 12px;">View more <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/">presentations</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/padday">Paul Adams</a>.</div></div>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-39724083231556070412010-04-12T02:56:00.000-07:002012-01-25T16:58:13.261-08:00Must read essay by a Nobel Prize winner<span style="font-family:arial;">This is a must read inspiring autobiographical essay written by Mr Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, who was awarded the Nobel prize and </span><span style="font-family:arial;"> Padma Vibhushan award.<br /><br /></span><a href="http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/article392121.ece"><span class="storyhead" style=";font-size:130%;color:blue;" ><b>From Chidambaram to Cambridge: solving the 30S subunit structure of the ribosome </b></span></a>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-39972960490168506202010-03-23T00:25:00.000-07:002010-03-23T00:32:42.494-07:00Lets promote and implement Rain water harvesting<p>Was listening to FM 106.4 Gyan Vani in radio today. I was stunned to know the following facts. </p><p>1. Out of the the total available water on earth, only 1% is pure and we are using.<br />2. We are using ground water (Wells and bore wells) 10 times more than the actual amount which it should be used.<br />3. After Rajastan, Karnataka is the second state which has highest amount of dry land in India. There is too much of scarcity for water in Most of the parts of Karnataka (esp. Northern parts.) People pay Rs.10 for one can of water.<br />4. We will be running out of river water as well as ground water from wells and bore wells in few years.<br />5. No company in India sells Mineral water. They are just selling Drinking water. It cannot be termed Mineral water. If any company is selling water under the name of Mineral water, it is a crime. And they mentioned that actual Mineral water will cost Rs.40 per liter.<br />6. According to Indian constitution drinking its a fundamental right to have drinking water. It is the duty of every government to provide drinking water. http://www.righttowater.info/pdfs/india_cs.pdf So selling of bottled drinking water should be banned. Water is the essence of life. Hence, any denial of water implies a denial of right to life. The right to water is not enshrined in the Indian Constitution as an explicit Fundamental Right but the Indian Judiciary, both at the state as well as at the center, has in several judgments interpreted Article 21 of the Constitution to include a right to clean and sufficient water, a right to a decent life, a right to live with dignity, and a right to a humane and healthy environment which would certainly imply a right to water.</p>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-45839890293239023762009-12-31T06:32:00.000-08:002009-12-31T07:10:28.343-08:00Green Resolution for 2010Pollution, Global warming, Raising sea lever, Melting Polar ice caps, delayed monsoons, Mining in forests, Ozone layer depletion and lot more...

Working for them has proven to be an interesting experience. Any project here takes 2 years to be finalized, even if the idea is simple and brilliant. It's a rule.<br /><br />Globalize processes have caused in us (all over the world) a general sense of searching for immediate results. Therefore, we have come to possess a need to see immediate results. This contrasts greatly with the slow movements of the Swedish. They, on the other hand, debate, debate, debate, hold x quantity of meetings and work with a slowdown scheme. At the end, this always yields better results.<br /><br />Said in another words:<br />1. Sweden is about the size of San Pablo, a state in Brazil.<br />2. Sweden has 2 million inhabitants.<br />3. Stockholm has 500,000 people.<br />4. Volvo, Escania, Ericsson, Electrolux, Nokia are some of its renowned companies. Volvo supplies the NASA.<br /><br />The first time I was in Sweden, one of my colleagues picked me up at the hotel every morning. It was September, bit cold and snowy. We would arrive early at the company and he would park far away from the entrance (2000 employees drive their car to work). The first day, I didn't say anything, either the second or third. One morning I asked, "Do you have a fixed parking space? I've noticed we park far from the entrance even when there are no other cars in the lot." To which he replied, "Since we're here early we'll have time to walk, and whoever gets in late will be late and need a place closer to the door. Don't you think so?" Imagine my face.<br /><br />Nowadays, there's a movement in Europe named Slow Food. This movement establishes that people should eat and drink slowly, with enough time to taste their food, spend time with the family, friends, without rushing. Slow Food is against its counterpart: the spirit of Fast Food and what it stands for as a lifestyle. Slow Food is the basis for a bigger movement called Slow Europe, as mentioned by Business Week. Basically, the movement questions the sense of "hurry" and "craziness" generated by globalization, fuelled by the desire of "having in quantity" (life status) versus "having with quality", "life quality" or the quality of being".<br /><br />French people, even though they work only 35 hours per week, are more productive than Americans or British. Germans have established 29 hour workweeks and have seen their productivity been driven up by 20%. This slow attitude has brought forth the US's attention, pupils of the fast and the "do it now!". This no-rush attitude doesn't represent doing less or having a lower productivity. It means working and doing things with greater quality, perfection, with more attention to detail and less stress. It means reducing rejects and wastage. It means re-establishing family values, friends, free and leisure time. Taking the "now", present and concrete, versus the "global", undefined and anonymous future. It means taking humans' essential values, the simplicity of living. It stands for a less coercive work environment, more happy, lighter and more productive where humans enjoy doing what they know best how to do.<br /><br />It's time to stop and think on how companies need to develop serious quality with no-rush that will increase productivity and the quality of products and services, without losing the essence of spirit.<br /><br />In the movie, Scent of a Woman, there's a scene where Al Pacino asks a girl to dance and she replies, "I can't, my boyfriend will be here any minute now". To which Al responds, "A life is lived in an instant". Then they dance to a tango.<br /><br />Many of us live our lives running behind time, but we only reach it when we die of a heart attack or in a car accident rushing to be on time. Others are so anxious of living the future that they forget to live the present, which is the only time that truly exists. We all have equal time throughout the world. No one has more or less. The difference lies in how each one of us does with our time. We need to live each moment.<br /><br />As John Lennon said, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans".<br /><br />Congratulations for reading till the end of this message. There are many who will have stopped in the middle so as not to waste time in this globalized world. </em><br /><em></em><br /><cut>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-83472976875794028472009-09-24T07:56:00.000-07:002009-11-08T22:04:10.747-08:00One of the recent nonsenseSome of our politicians have been tirelessly busy to do something new to get publicity. Rahul Gandhi was recently found doing one of that stuff. What makes these people think that we are still illiterates?<br />These tactics worked will for his ancestors because literacy rate in our country was very less. No we are proud to say that our literacy rate has come up to 75.85% male and 54.16% female from 27.16% male and 8.86% female at 1951.<br /><a href="http://infochangeindia.org/200210025866/Education/Statistics/Literacy-rates-in-India-1951-2001.html">http://infochangeindia.org/200210025866/Education/Statistics/Literacy-rates-in-India-1951-2001.html</a><br />Opposition parties again started barking for the similar action by Rahul Gandhi’s followers.

I got it by email from a good friend of mine. There is nothing mine in this, its just a copy-paste of the email.<br /><br /><br />Dear all.<br /><br />LATELY, I have been thinking a lot about the Lehman crisis . Spending money<br />that they didn't have and going beyond their means is one of the main<br />reasons for their situation today. In fact that is the cause for the<br />current economic crisis in the US.<br /><br />When I see all this happening, I can only remember the good old days. Then,<br />karz was bad. People looked down upon those who took loans. Parents would<br />not give their daughter's hand in marriage to a man with loans.<br /><br />But of course, the times have changed now. Everyone I know has a loan. The<br />buzz word is EMI (equated monthly installment). Today, you can buy<br />everything on EMI - a house, a television, even an i-Pod. In fact I know of<br />someone who just bought a fancy BMW 3 series on EMI, instead of buying a<br />cheaper car outright with cash. I mostly prefer to take public transport,<br />but then I am an old man with old thoughts!<br /><br />Anyway, coming back to what caused the crisis. Imagine having Rs 2 lakh in<br />your bank account, no regular income, yet buying a house worth Rs 65 lakh,<br />in the hope of selling it for a higher price. Even if the price of the<br />house fell by just 5 per cent (that is Rs 3 lakh), you will go bankrupt.<br />This is what Lehman Brothers did; with around USD 20 billion they went and<br />bought assets worth over USD 600 billion. Isn't it suicidal and simply<br />foolish?<br /><br />I am sure things would have been different, had I been the head of Lehman<br />brothers. But who wants an old conservative man like me to head a complex<br />financial institution.<br /><br /><br />But there are a few lessons that we can learn:<br /><br />1.Live a balanced life and avoid overspending.<br /><br />2.Don't buy things we don't need.<br /><br />3.Don't buy Branded goods.<br /><br />4.Don't buy excess Food, Cloths, Cosmetics, Footwear, electronics and<br />Fashion accuracies<br />just think before you buy.<br />Tip: World still has a lot of growth ahead and the future holds immense<br />opportunities for us. Let us make the most of it and save and invest it<br />wisely instead of wasting our precious little on things we don't need.<br /><br />5.Try to balance life with work (No one is happy to work in their<br />professions).<br /><br />6. Don't stress out your self, after work try to do some extra activities<br />like swimming,<br />yoga, walking, running where you can divert your mind from stress.<br />A thumb rule: Health is more important than money.<br /><br />7.Try to understand each other (Wife and Husband) in financial matters and<br />help each<br />other.<br /><br />Tip: As soon as you get your monthly salary, set aside a fixed amount,<br />usually 35 per cent, for insurance, savings and investments. You can then<br />spend the rest.<br /><br />8. Not all loans are bad. Loans that are 'need based' (home loans,<br />education loans) can always find a place in your finances against those<br />that are largely 'want based' (Credit cards, personal loans, car loans).<br /><br />9. Borrow only if repayment is financially comfortable.<br />A thumb rule: Keep EMIs within 35 to 45 per cent of your monthly income<br /><br />In that respect, there is one American who I really respect - Warren<br />Buffet. He has lived in the same ordinary house for over three decades,<br />drives his own medium sized car and leads an extremely regular 'middle<br />class' life. If that's all it takes for the richest person on earth to be<br />happy, why do all of us need to take extra stress just so that we can get<br />things which aren't even essentialKishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-62310218855894060112008-10-16T07:28:00.000-07:002009-01-07T05:05:25.788-08:00Blog going public :pWell After 2 posts i am declaring this blog in public :p.<br /><br />PS: I am not a celebrity or any famous creature. This is JUST ANOTHER BLOG over the internet<br /><br />Welcome to my blog. I started bloging because of the following reasons:<br />1. Blog is some place in the web where public can read about u even if u aren't famous.<br /><br />2. Every one around has a blog these days<br /><br />3. Some place where u can yell whatever u can and no body stops you (unless it is illegal, defamatory, false, copyrighted...)<br /><br />4. Where u can make a point even if ur voice is low.<br /><br />5. I find a lot of blogs in the net where people just have "flowery language"(what every one who grow up in a metro have) and full of non sense, well let me also try blogging with some sense atleast.<br /><br />6. There is this free internet which my company provides [:D]<br />Well thats all for now. keep commentingKishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2843576931045659964.post-5371846662171957442008-09-18T07:30:00.000-07:002008-09-18T07:31:30.456-07:00Awesome Egg to hen AmazinG photoshave a look at the following link, dont miss the last pic<br /><br /><a href="http://buburuza.net/?p=5813">http://buburuza.net/?p=5813</a>Kishanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728342587579018120noreply@blogger.com0
