This morning when I opened a News site to quickly run through the headlines, I ended up reading the complete report.
This kind of headlines is not as shocking (or rather in theory, DISGUSTING) as the comments on it. Here, I assume people who comment on online news have at least a basic level of education (Maturity & Morality excluded) to decide what is right or wrong. More than 70% of comments agreed with Raj Thackeray’s way of acting to keep local culture intact.
When I tried to look into technical face of the news (I know Top brass from Airtel would have already started banging their head to implement this ASAP else they know the opportunity cost) 22 languages comes into mind.
Yes! The Govt. of India has given 22 "Languages of the 8th Schedule" the status of official language.
So if Airtel considers to implement Interactive Voice Response (IVR) messages nationwide to avoid any further attack by some from the million people (Apart from political exceptions, only language which has more than 1 Million speaking people can be part of 8th schedule) they need to record the message in few more languages.
Having said that, this solution is not going to work; as to break a shop one don't need to represent a language (fucker like Raj Thackeray can't even represent human being forget the language and culture.)
Well! Without digging into more technicalities, what if at the time of purchasing SIM, subscriber is given a choice to select the Language from available (record IVR in every possible language) and IVR can be based on the caller's chosen language and also this concept can be leveraged further.
How feasible this implementation would be? I have No IDEA Sirji. (Airtel can't expect the free detailed design document)
Now, looking at the business side, as per latest World Bank report, India stand
at 133rd position (out of 183) in the "Ease of Doing Business" across the
globe.
If you drill down to individual parameters, India has actually improved the most in "Closing the Business". At this rate, Thackeray can help to close one plant in one day.
See, he is any way progressing; it’s just that direction doesn’t matter for him.
For facts lover, India is home to more than 200 million mobile users, and service has reached the most rural of villages. Recent studies have shown that increasing cell phone penetration by an extra 10 phones per 100 people can lead to as much as a 0.6% increase in a country's GDP. I still need to compute how much can “breaking a shop” contribute to GDP.
Any way he is contributing to GDP. It’s just that direction doesn’t matter for him.
Back in 90's and some part of 21st century or precisely during Laloo's regime, if there was any state that occupied more space in News papers then it was Bihar.
Now Raj Thackeray has taken oath to occupy more space in News paper. Actually now in most part of the country things are not different. There are many to compete for the headlines.
Student in AP did suicide as he wanted separate state. Any way, few years down the line he had to fly down to States; then what purpose was he trying to solve.
Any way, he too contributed to population; just that direction didn’t matter for him.
These days, there are many such contributions to headlines from different states.
Any way we are making progress; it’s just that direction does not matter.
When I started writing this I was so perturbed by news, but now after writing all thru I am feeling - Tension not Sirji!
And some where towards the end I lost the intended direction; but does direction matter Sirji?
Any way our India is going Places; just that direction does not matter.
What a Progress Sirji!
Wish! we had one Language for entire country. It means much more than breaking barriers. Will this ever happen Sirji?
From someone who thinks he is part of Mumbai not Mumbai is part of him.
