Validate IMEI numbers of Chinese Handsets and Get new valid IMEI numbers

Finally, government of India and Dot has decided to stop use of all Chinese made handsets in India which do not have unique IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number. From 1st December all such handsets will stop working because all mobile operators across India are asked to stop services to such handsets. IMEI number is a unique 15 digit identification number assigned to each mobile handset device and it is possible to track a mobile number with the help of this unique IMEI numbers. In last few years, many cheap Chinese handsets have entered in India which either do not have any IMEI number or they have cloned or duplicate IMEI numbers. All handsets with no IMEI number or with duplicate or cloned numbers will come under this ruling and will become idle from 1st December, 2009.

To check IMEI number of your handset type *#06# on mobile keypad and soon a 15 digit long unique number will appear on your mobile screen. This 15 digit unique identification is IMEI number of your mobile handset.

Now if your Chinese mobile do not show any IMEI number or 0000000000 then it is going to become useless from 1st Dec. Moreover, even if your Chinese handset is showing an unique IMEI number, it is important to validate that it is an unique IMEI number and not a cloned or duplicate IMEI number because recently many local Chinese firms sent millions of cheap mobiles in India with duplicate or cloned IMEI number which are also equally invalid as per international and Indian laws.

People can validate IMEI numbers of their handsets by sending their IMEI numbers of two numbers 57886 and 53232.

About Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board results, recognition and Authenticity

Many frauds have been done in the name of this school board and there is news of fake certificates sold for Rs 10,000. For the first time, I have found a school education board whose website changes so fast and we can find multiple websites online. Initially, the first question which came to my mind was that Is Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board is a fake one or a real one because it is very hard to find the real and current active official website of this board.  In 2008, the website of this board was www.bssbonline.com and then changed to www.bssbpatna.com. In the 2020 official letter of the board, the official website was written www.bssbpat.com. In an earlier 2019 official letter, two websites are mentioned www.bssbpat.com and www.bssbpat.in.  Online I found the mention of biharsanskritshikshaboard.in as the official website. There is a website n
