Day light robbery at Indian banks
The new bank charges announced by banking sector this week go against PM Modi’s digital economy dreams. I have no idea what the Reserve bank was thinking when it allowed these charges. Charging users by transactions, just to deposit and withdraw your own money is surely going to force people away from banks and save…
No white knight, this Orange blight!!
My American friends, hope you are prepared for the onslaught of the Orange monster!!
An open-letter to all Jallikattu supporters, where is your compassion?
There is a battle of sorts raging on in India between supporters of a traditional sport called “JalliKattu” and those who oppose it in the name of animal cruelty and prevention. Unfortunately a overwhelming majority of people from the state of Tamilnadu have taken the position that its their god-given right to participate in the…

Did Family Guy just Skewer some of America’s beloved classics??
I don’t need to tell you how funny and ruthlessly scathing Family Guy is when it comes to social commentary. They make crude and simplistic jokes about various aspects of our world, but also weave a brilliant and biting satire to make their point.

All we can do is just laugh and accept the fact that it’s going to be President Trump

No fact-checking, no questioning him back,…
