Random Stuff

No one beats Gujarat Govt at development. For one, banning cell phones in schools and colleges and the other making mandatory voting for every one. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Gujarat-govt-bans-mobile-phones-in-schools-colleges/articleshow/6245775.cms

 

Gujarat is the only state in India which has GDP growth of 13% every year. I don’t say there is no corruption there but Modi Govt is doing really well in showing progress compared to the other states.

 

Delhi police are using Facebook to Catch Scofflaw Drivers. Social networking is playing a major role at least in Delhi.  The traffic police started a Facebook page two months ago, and almost immediately residents began posting photos of drivers violating laws.
