China's interest is our interest

I agree with Anand1. If you follow Indian history and the positions taken by left parties in various ages, it comes out very obvious that they are basically against the very foundation of Indian society. at every crucial juncture of Indian history, right from the 42 movement, Netaji's days to the 62 ...

About public sector banks..my brother inquired with a colleage who took loan from SBI . It seems they also kept such a check. In fact the SBI asked for full amount check while the UTI check is for "not more than ...lakhs". The difference is minimal but the method is same.

Customer service from UTI is also very good. I was very confused about this check. anyways, we are much ahead in the game now and can not retract back. CitiBank service is dismal. even though I have an NRE account with them, they did not bother to respond to my query while I was at Ahmedabad. So ...

Just came back from a very short trip to Ahmedabad. this is my first time there and could not get a chance to go beyond VastraPura, Bodakdev, CG Road, Gurukul etc etc with some vistis to Teen Darwaja area.
