Hi! Himachal Pradesh is the first Indian state to get carbon credit for reducing pollution. I met HP chief minister Pramkumar Dhumal when he was in Mumbai for the BJP national conclave on good governance. I wanted to know what steps his government took to preserve the environment. I got an interesting interview. I filed it for may newspaper on the occasion of World Environment Day. But it was not published. I am giving it here, on my personal place, for your information. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “A lecture on global warming was an alarming bell for preserving environment” Premkumar Dhumal is the only chief minister in the country who holds a portfolio of agriculture and animal husbandry. Under his leadership Himachal Pradesh has become the first Indian state which has obtained carbon credit for preserving environment.

अवधूत गुप्ते अभिमानाने म्हणत असतो मी शिवसैनिक आहे म्हणून. मग शिवसेनेने त्याच्या सिनेमाला संरक्षण का नाही दिले? सेनेने गुप्तेला म्हणायला हवे होते की तू तुझा सिनेमा आहे तसाच प्रदर्शित कर. आम्ही तुझ्या पाठीशी उभे राहू. मग कोण नारायण राणे आहे ते पाहून घेऊ. पण इथे सेनाच राणेंना घाबरते त्याचे काय?

I want your opinion on this story. The story tells you about the tactics used by a 'powerful' Congress leader Kripashankar Singh to get a flat from Mhada for his 'poor' daughter and son-in-law. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Daughter's papers show Kripashankar became Paa at the age of three A birth date proof submitted by Mumbai Congress president Kripashankar Singh's daughter Sunita and son-in-law Vijaykumar along with an application for a flat from Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (Mhada) in 2000 may return to haunt the leader. According to the ration card copies submitted by Vijaykumar in 2000, Sunita was born in 1953 – three years after her father Kripashankar was born in 1950.

During a midnight travel on Mumbai’s roads, I came across with an oil adulteration racket. After watching the developments on the roads closely, I came to a conclusion that most of the industrial units in Maharashtra probably do not get pure fuel. What they receive is actually an adulterated form of the pure fuel which affects their productivity.

The industrial units use Furnace Oil as the fuel for the generation of power or heat. The oil is transported from Sewree to Pune railway yard everyday. From Pune, it is further carried out to various industrial units in the state. Public sector refineries produce Furnace Oil. The Furnace Oil is theft and adulterated in Vadgaon Maval. Everyday at least 50 tankers carry the oil to Pune. A gang of oil thieves is active in Vadgaon Maval. They stop the tankers, steal a few tones of the oil from the ...

I cannot understand why the government cannot bring down fuel prices though the prices in internationnal market have been marginally down. Is the UPA gogernment is trying to raise election fund from the fuel money or is it trying to fill the loss of revenue due to the subsidy on petroleum products? Ordinary citizen should get gas, petrol, diesel as cheap prices. The government can impose heavy levy on luxurious goods to recover the loss on petroleum products. But at the same time, we should learn to use the fuel carefully and avoid the wastage just like we do with water and electricity.
