IPL - what is the ROI

There was so much hype about IPL, rather the most hyped cricketing event, even more than World CUP but as we come nearer to the day it seems to be fizzling out and giving gitters to all the investment. I don't think investors will make enough or actually make losses.

Too much of any thing is bad, even cricket and even if it is India where Cricket is a religion and players GOD.

BCCI- if you are listening, too much cricket is bad for the game or may be its good as Indians will get bored and will start focusing at Hockey.

Meghalaya - Flowering Draught

Bamboo flowers every 50 years and as a result of this no. of rats increase and they destroy the crop. This is what has happened in Meghalaya and because of this 10000 people in villages are getting only 1 meal a day.

Last week I was seeing reports in news that rice is rotting in godowns, Isn't this irony?

If a few handful decide they can resolve the Meghalaya problem.

No Honking Day - 7th April

Mumbai today announced No Honking Day, did it make any difference? NO. Its a shame that we have all become insensitive and people could not restrain themselves from honking even for a Day. Over 6200 people were fined today for honking.
Honking is a big menace in India and we don't realise the damage it is doing, it makes people hyper and irritable and this leads to health issue and also effects relationships.

Request all Indians to stop honking. Police should also have a drive to educate the people and also ensure that all the vehicles with higher decibel be fined.

I think ARAI and department of transport should come up with an amendment in the rule and reduce the decibel level for manufacturers to use.

Hope India can someday become a NO HONKING COUNTRY
