A letter to the PM.

Dear PM,

We all know that "Bharat ke is nirman mien sirf aur sirf aapka hak hai" but a gentle request from Aam Aadmi is that instead of spending so much money on that 1 minute Advertisement on all the channels at prime time,if you could spend little bit of it at ground level for poor people,your voters would have felt much better.

These days,I think only 2 person can afford 1 minute advertisement at peak time and full page advertisement on newspaper.
First one is Neeta Ambani and second is Congress Party -Bharat ke is nirman mien shak,i mean hak hai mera (I don't know but this jingle always comes to my mind).

See,Neeta Ambani can afford to say Thank You like this because she belongs to Ambani Family and if she wont say Thank you like this then who would.Her slow accent in the ads clearly tell us that she and only she could afford that very slow accent in the advertisement.

and But while congress self proclaimed Bharat ke nirman ka ad,I have noticed in this "Bharat Nirman" and "Metro Yug" your director still showing Express train and chai wala bhaiya.

Still we have one year for elections but your Big budget marketing plan showing all other parties that only Congress can afford this big budget marketing plan wo bhi 1 saal pehle se .I hope aapke netao ne is mein koi scam nhi kia ho,I mean kahin aapse 1.5 minute ke paise leke baki 1 minute ka hi ad chal rha ho(Just saying).

But its always good to see those ads where you show a Happy Farmer.I am just waiting for that day when Farmers will have television and electricity in their house and they will be able see to their image on TV.

All the best for next election.

I hope this time you will speak more and work less.

Aam Aadmi

Gmail blocks use of “IIT” in usernames to remove discrimination

Responding to a long pending demand of Engineers’ Rights activists (a disputed subset of Human Rights activists), Gmail has decided to ban the use of ‘iit’ in its usernames as the practice was seen discriminatory towards non-IIT engineers of India.

“There is a huge population of non-IIT engineers in India, in fact, they are in majority and they are also quite talented. But their Gmail usernames causes other people to become judgmental,” Vikkas Kapoor, one of the activists explained the “discrimination” due to ‘iit’ in Gmail usernames, “People take it for granted that abc@gmail.com will be dumber than abc_iit@gmail.com!”

Vikkas claimed that last year a girl had accepted his chat request on Google Chat after he changed his username from cool_vikkas@gmail.com to vikkas.iitd@gmail.com.

“Such discriminations are being promoted by Google because they are allowing such characters in the username,” he complained.

While Google agreed that such problems exist, the search engine giant cited some other reasons too for their decision to ban ‘iit’ in usernames.

“Not just the IITs, the larger engineers’ community of India had started following the trend of using college names in their mail-id. This has led to creation of extra-long usernames because of the long and complicated names private engineering colleges. It was adding strain to our servers,” a Google official told Faking News.

“We believe that by barring the IITians, we might start a new trend where engineering college students start removing the name of their colleges in their Gmail usernames,” the official hoped.

The decision has got mixed response from different sections of the society. Majority of engineers and the Left parties have given it a thumbs up, calling it a giant step toward social equality.

However, it seems that Google’s move hasn’t been welcomed in their own backyard because of many IITians working in the company. Some market analyst even fear that Google may have to pay for this in their next recruitment drive at IIT campuses.

“I don’t think these are real issues of concern for Google. Leave aside the Gmail username, a guy will change his whole name to get that hefty pay package!” an analyst provided the counterview.

The decision by Google has also been mired in political controversy as a Congress leader alleged that Google was playing favoritism politics and was trying to gather the support of huge non-IIT population of country.

“IIT population was already poached by BJP or Team Anna and now the rest are being targeted by Google! There is a clear foreign hand behind it,” a Congress leader claimed as he requested Kapil Sibal to put more restriction on Google and the IITs.

Meanwhile Google has asked all Gmail users with ‘iit’ in their username to change their email ids as soon as possible, failing which the ‘iit’ in their email ids will automatically be replaced with ‘iipm’.
