At the start of this month, TRAI passed new rules for DTH pricing in India and these rules will be effective from the start of next year. Already, we are seeing ads by the leading networks like Star, Zee etc to buy their channels packs. In the advertisement, they all say to contact your DTH/Cable operator to subscribe to their channel packs. The channel packs of Star and Zee are starting from Rs 49 and Rs 45 respectively, whereas there are many other channel networks whose packs are starting from as low as Rs 8 only.

I did contact my DHT operator, Tata Sky and told them about my confusion. I asked them to clarify me the process to join these channel packs and also told that this facility is still not available on their website (mytatasky.com). The person on the phone told me that they are trying to comply with TRAI order and before 29 Dec 2018, they will update their system. After that, I will be able to select the packs of my choice. Even after this reply, my confusion is still pres…

All around the world, people are now busy celebrating Christmas with their loved ones. Christmas is one of the biggest festivals celebrating in our world and this festival is very popular because of the huge population of Christians across the world. In India too, we can find huge enthusiasm for the festival of Christmas. Not only Christians but people from the other religion too enjoy celebrating Christmas.  This festival is celebrated to mark the birth of Jesus Christ who gave his life for the welfare of ordinary people.

I do wish everyone a very happy Christmas and I do wish that this day bring happiness to every person's life. During my childhood on the Christmas day, I always wanted that Santa Claus should pay a visit to my home and give me a toy. At that age, I was not aware of the fact that your parents or loved one become a Santa for you. It is a good thing to enjoy festivals because they spread happiness and love. Today, people are becoming more comfortable with each other…

The politicians around the world remain in news for many positive and negative news and America's President Donald Trump is also one of them. From the time of his election to the highest post in the US, he is always surrounded with one or other controversy. Many people believe that he is incapable of holding the highest post and he should resign. Today, I saw a great example of this trend when I saw #Trumpresign as the top searched and shared keyword on the top social media platforms like Twitter. 

When I saw this hashtag for the first time on twitter then I thought for some time that Donald Trump might have resigned and I rushed to my TV to verify this news but later I realized that it is an appeal to Donal Trump to resign and it is trending as a top trend and even in countries like India this hashtag topped in the list. I am neither a supporter of Donald Trump nor his adversary but if he suddenly resigns then it will surely surprise me. Today, social media has become a very power…

Today for the first time, I came to know about the existence of International Tea Day. No offence in it and I am sorry for it if I was not aware of any such day. The main reason behind my ignorance was an ordinary approach associated with Tea (our chai) and it is hard to believe that tea (our chai) can go international. We Indian drink tea for no specific reason and it is very hard for many people to think about a life without Tea or morning chai. Tea or popularly chai is very common and it is easily accessible to everyone. It is very common to see small stall owners on the roadside selling chai at every busy corner of India. Though tea was not discovered by us; however, one thing is very clear that we are very much responsible for its popularity around the world.

In India, tea or chai is considered a much cheaper option than Coffee because of the rate difference in them. In India, it is easier to find many people who may have never tasted coffee but it is unlikely to find a person w…

Today came with a good news for the Congress as Congress is likely to make next governments in the three Hindi heartland states of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh. Most of the exit polls already pointed towards the win of Congress in Rajasthan; however, no one predicted a win for Congress in Chhattisgarh. In Chhattisgarh, Congress did an exceptionally well job by winning 65 seats out of 90. In Madhya Pradesh, Congress looks to be the number one party with a shortage of 3 to 4 seats away from the majority. In Rajasthan, Congress has almost touched the magic number and it is in a comfortable position to make the next government.

These results are great news for Congress which is looking some miracle to save its skin. These wins have also increased the faith of people on Congress and Congress looks to make a comeback in 2019 Loksabha election. These results are also encouraging sign for the Rahul Gandhi and his leadership. BJP and its leaders have mentioned many times that n…
