Delhi BJP President & Gen. Secretary Petty BSES Contractors

15 01 2015
Satish Upadhyay and his General Secretary from the party immediately.
It was Impossible for BSES to install FAST METERS without the services
of Satish Upadhyay and Anil Ashish Sood – Meters are Tested after
Installation but they didn’t disclose the FEATURES installed in the
Meters to Run Fast.
1.    All Meters were set to run around 3% fast at all times.
2.    All Meters were Programmed to Capture Return Current in case of
common Neutral between two meters.
3.    All Meters had Software to Run Meters Fast – Technology Defined in
General Electric Patents abused by BSES.
Within 2-3 months of Takeover by BSES in July2002 all Electricity
Meters were Test Checked by Companies like the one owned by Satish
Upadhyay – meters even 1% Slow Were Replaced Immediately – 17% Fast
were not.
Most meters were needlessly replaced 2-4 Times – Good
Electro-Mechanical Meters were replaced by L&T Meters and then by
Chinese / Indian Computerized Meters.
Purchase of Meters needlessly in itself is Rs.1000 Crore Scam and Fast
Meters in last 12.5 years Caused Rs.12,500 Crores Scam to Consumers.
Satish Upadhyay responsible for Meters installation was also INVOLVED
IN FABRICATED THEFT CASES – BSES didn’t account for Load Factor which
is 11%. For example a Consumer with 10KW Load would have 1.1KW average
load.
Over 1,00,000 Fabricated Cases were registered and many times more
were SIMPLE EXTORTIONS. This too is Rs.1000 Crores Direct Loss to
Consumers – and many times more for Extortions.
Since 2002 I have made Petitions to PMO regarding LOOT of BSES & NDPL.
Delhi BJP has Sabotaged LED & SolarPV Programs.

#4: UBA All India Inter University Basketball Tournament for Men Day 3

15 01 2015
#4: UBA All India Inter University Basketball Tournament for Men Day 3 and Day 2 Evening- Bengaluru wins thriller against Punjab, Hosts Sathyabama stays undefeated
Gopalakrishnan R & Vishnu Ravi Shankar, Chennai, 13th- 14th January 2015: In an exciting series of morning games, a full strength Jain University, Bengaluru team which was seeded 4th from the South Zone, upset North Zone’s no. 1 side Punjab University, Chandigarh 99-97. Earlier on the same court, Jamia Millia Delhi continued its deceptive winning streak beating MG Kasi Vidya Peet University, Varanasi in a must win match.
Jain University, Bengaluru trailed by double digits early in the fourth quarter before its point guard Vinoth drained back to back threes that brought his team within one possession. Two quick fast break opportunities followed, and that coupled with Punjab missing some clutch freethrows meant that Bengaluru side went through to the quarterfinals as the top seeded team from Pool A.
In the other close morning match, GNDU Amritsar beat Bharathiar University, Coimbatore 81-65 to force a triple tie in Pool C between Bharati Vidya Peet University, Pune, GNDU and Bharathiar. It remains to be seen which two out of these three teams will go through to the knockout stages.

Chennai teams remain undefeated in Day 2 Evening Games

The two teams from Chennai that have qualified for the UBA All India Inter-University Basketball Tournament for Men 2014-15, Sathyabama University and University of Madras have remained undefeated thus far in the league stages. The University of Madras played their second game yesterday evening against the team from Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi and picked up a 71-58 win. The game remained close in the first half, with Jamia staying within single digits of the University of Madras team. However, the Chennai team pulled away in the second half owing to their superior size advantage over the New Delhi team. Karthickeyan S. from the University of Madras team poured in 27 points, while his team’s imposing centre Jeevanatham P. put in 12 points and had numerous blocks.
The home team, Sathyabama University faced a formidable opponent in Pandit Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur yesterday evening. The game was an up-and-down battle in the first half that saw four lead changes. Both teams were sloppy throughout the game with a similar number of turnovers, but Sathyabama’s superior rebounding advantage (43-19 in team rebounds) carried them through to victory. Sathyabama’s point guard, Arun Prashanth led from the front with 23 points and 4 assists in the game, while Sathyabama’s centre, Rakesh had a double-double with 21 points and 11 rebounds. Despite Kiranpal S. from the Raipur team shooting lights out from beyond the 3-point line and scoring a game-high 35 points, it was not enough as Sathyabama maintained their lead in the second half and hung on for the win.
In the matches held on the outdoor courts yesterday, the top seed from the North Zone, Punjab University, Chandigarh picked up their second win of the tournament with a comfortable 65-48 victory against the team from the University of Burdwan, West Bengal on the basis of a balanced scoring attack. The other game was between GNDU, Amritsar and the fourth seed of the East Zone, VBS Purvanchal University, Jaunpur. This was a completely one-sided affair as the second seed from the North Zone, GNDU Amritsar dominated the Jaunpur team from start to finish to pick up a 95-58 blowout victory. GNDU’s Sukhjit N. had 22 points and 7 assists and Harmanpreet put up a double-double with 22 points and 10 rebounds.

ABOUT THE EVENT

Embassies are at the cutting edge of the international system, agencies of the home system that transact with foreign countries. Past few years have witnessed evolution of purpose of diplomacy as set out in the Vienna Convention of Diplomatic Relations 1961, as a consequence of which the role of embassies has been extended to being that of a promoter, negotiator, communicator, manager, synthesiser, and service provider across the entire gamut of external affairs. This proactive and intensive involvement has lead to perceive embassies as the “CEO’s of multiagency missions reaching out to the entire society and not just the government”. In that context, Ambassador Kishan S. Rana raises the question whether embassies are likely to undergo evolutionary changes adapting to requirements of efficiency and tighter accountability in his book “The Contemporary Embassy – Paths to Diplomatic Excellence”. The book discussion session will have experts on diplomacy reflecting over the main argument of the book on the departure from formulistic rituals of diplomacy and on ways embassies could do better.

German federal security agencies  currently examining a possible threat of copycat attacks by local sympathizers to the last week’s attack in Paris that left 12 people dead, Die Welt newspaper reported Wednesday. Investigators registered suspicious Internet activity, such as open calls for terror attacks.
According to a 25-page secret document, a copy of which was obtained by the newspaper, “The attack could also work as a spark for people living or staying in Germany who are predisposed to such acts.” However, German security agents have no “concrete intelligence or evidence” that any attack is in preparation. Many European countries are on high alert, boosting security measures in the wake of last week’s deadly terror attacks in Paris. Denmark, Norway and Germany have already detected various threats. Thus many European countries are on high alert, boosting security measures in the wake of last week’s deadly terror attacks in Paris. Denmark, Norway and Germany have already detected various threats.
On Tuesday, a controversial mosque in Denmark’s Aarhus has requested the police assistance in the grim atmosphere of various threats and the aftermath of the recent tragedy in Paris.
“They don’t feel threatened and they don’t want to press charges but they have pointed out that people are talking about them in a very, very ugly way and we are following the situation,” Commissioner Allan Aarslev told Metroxpress.
In a recent documentary aired on local TV the leadership of the Grimhøj Mosque leadership claimed “We want the Islamic State to come out on top. We want an Islamic state in the world,” according to The Local.
Norway’s TV2 reported on Friday that Norwegian security officers were investigating a terror threat against two Scandinavian countries, that was previously posted on a French website.
“We are aware of the threat and are now working on trying to clear up whether it is real,” Siv Alsén, a spokesperson for the Norwegian Police Security Service (PST) told Norway’s TV2.
According to The Local, the Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET) said it could neither confirm nor deny the reported French threat.
France, Austria, Belgium and Spain also are on “high alert,” relying on a general threat level. Transportation hubs, such as airports, seaports and train stations, energy networks and nuclear power plants have now tightened up security. Media agencies
