Raja and Kanimozhi aquitted from entire 2G case - Justice Delivered Or Justice Escaped

Former telecom minister A Raja and DMK MP Kanimozhi again proved that our indian judicial system is the most easiet for criminals to escape. The verdict given by special CBI court today  in the 2G spectrum allocation says that both the above accused do not stand guilty for thr 2G "scam".

Raja, a leader of Tamil Nadu-based DMK party, which was an ally in the Congress-led UPA government, blamed vested interests for propagating the presumptive loss theory.

"Vested interests manipulated public perception by leveraging the media and sensationalising fabricated allegations," he said.

"It has been repeatedly proven that the presumptive loss to the exchequer which formed the basis for the conspiracy theorists to run amok, was cooked-up."



Raja, who was the minister in the Congress-led UPA government when 122 telecom spectrum licences were issued to 8 companies in 2008 on first-come-first-serve basis, said his actions were for the benefit of masses, which brought competition in the telecom sector.

"I brought a revolution in the telecom sector. It is not unknown to the history that a person who did a revolution is often termed as a criminal," he said.

In its charge sheet filed in April 2011 against Raja and others, CBI had alleged that there was a loss of Rs 30,984 crore to the exchequer in allocation of 122 licences for 2G spectrum which were scrapped by the Supreme Court on February 2, 2012.

The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) had put the loss to the exchequer at Rs 1.76 lakh crore.

On being asked, if he felt let down by Congress, the former minister responded "that we will see later".
Raja's sentiments were echoed by DMK MP Kanimozhi as well who said that she had been waiting for this day for the last six years.
Kanimozhi, Rajya Sabha MP and daughter of DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi, was accused of conniving with former telecom minister A Raja and other co-accused in "parking" illegal gratification of Rs 200 crore in Kalaignar TV Pvt Ltd, of which she was a promoter.
Dubbing her last six years as "harrowing and excruciating", she said in a statement that as the 2G episode was behind her she will do all she can to strengthen the party and work for the people of Tamil Nadu.
"The last six years have been harrowing to say the least...I owe a debt of gratitude to my family and party workers who were a pillar of support to me and stood by me during these six excruciating years. There is no evidence against me and justice has been delivered", she told media persons in New Delhi after the verdict was pronounced.

The DMK MP said she always believed that she would see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Suhaib Ilyasi likely to be sentenced for wife's murder

The former TV host was convicted by a Delhi court of murdering his wife. The detailed judgment is not made public yet,but sentence is likely be pronounced on December 20.

On January 10, 2000, 29-year-old Anju Ilyasi had been rushed to an east Delhi hospital with fatal stab wounds in her belly. She had bled excessively and could not be revived. When police questioned him, Ilyasi had told them that his wife had stabbed herself during a heated argument with him.



Two and a half months after the incident, on March 28, Ilyasi had been arrested and charged with harassing his wife for dowry (Section 498A of IPC), causing dowry death (Section 304B) and tampering with evidence (Section 201).
"Additional sessions judge S K Malhotra convicted Ilyasi under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code for murder on Saturday," said lawyer Satender Sharma, counsel for the complainants, Anju's mother and sister.
Advocate Manu Sharma, who argued in Ilyasi's defence, told TOI he would be in a better position to comment once he read the detailed judgment. "The copy of the court order has not been provided to us," Manu Sharma explained. He, however, added that an appeal against the conviction would be moved in Delhi high court once the sentence is read out on December 20.

Zumba dance helps you relieve stress and to stay emotionally fit


Researchers have conducted a study and shown that involving yourself in zumba dance for five weeks not only helps you stay physically fit but also improves mental health and quality of life.

Zumba is an exercise fitness programme which involves dance and aerobic movements performed to energetic music. The choreography incorporates hip-hop, soca, samba, salsa, merengue and mambo. Squats and lunges are also included.

In the study, published in the Health Education Journal, people with sedentary lifestyle participated in the five-week exercise programme based on the Zumba Fitness discipline. Zumba helped them improve their quality of life, especially the emotional aspect, which was recorded as the least in these participants.



Quality of life is a broad concept comprising various aspects and is divided into eight dimensions: social, emotional, physical state, physical pain, physical functioning, vitality, mental health and general health.

"It is interesting to note that the emotional dimension, which was the one with the lowest values at the beginning, was the one with the highest values at the end of the exercise programme

"Therefore, the one that experienced the greatest improvement," said lead researcher Yaira Barranco Ruiz, from the University of Granada (UGR) in Spain.

Moreover, even two months after the intervention ended, most of the dimensions continued to maintain levels above those recorded at the beginning of the programme, the researchers said.

Ribbon showcases the most unexpected sweet thing which happens for newly married couples

Kalki Koechlin and Sumeet Vyas are newly married couple. Both are busy in their work life and then this unexpected news comes to them.

It can be tough for working copules to digest the news of them becoming parents if its unplanned and contains an element of surprise. This is what happens with this couple in the movie. Then starts the new life struggling with the never-ending demands of the infant, and the consequent impact on careers, and other things that used to effortlessly be a priority.


Sahana (Koechlin) and Karan (Vyas) are couple based in city Mumbai. She is fast-tracking a corporate job; he is an engineer working on big building projects.
Nice to see man and woman working, and dealing with stuff that happens post-marriage: all the messy, irritating stuff that has not been part of the happily-ever-after Bollywood landscape. In many places, Ribbon makes us feel for these two people.
Koechlin leaves a mark as a harried professional, reluctant mom, and a good wife. Vyas is competent too. Some thorny issues are brought up: the troubles that women face at workplaces, the having to outsource child-care, the predators that lurk in the most unexpected places.
But as often as the film astutely touches upon the tough choices, and the problems that can crop up, it leaves them, and us, hanging. You are left wanting a little more.

"Ignore them dear. You're looking fabulous," wrote one follower while another wrote: "Beautiful you Sana.....people would say without even thinking for a sec overlapping the fact that someone could look that beautiful."

But what delighted the Dangal actress' fans was the caption Fatima had written on her picture that read: "Shameless selfie." It seems Fatima really knows how to deal with the trolls.

Fatima was cast with Aamir Khan in last year's Dangal, which has already touched the 200 crore mark worldwide. It was tremendously hit with both film critics and audience.Fatima will next feature in Thugs Of Hindostan, co-starring Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif and Amitabh Bachchan.
