ALERT CITIZENS FORUM OF INDIA March 2, 2016 The Hon. Finance Minister, Government of India, New Delhi. Sub: Request to roll back the Tax on Employees Provident Fund announced in the Union Budget. Respected Sir, As propos the above, we wish to submit as under: 1) In a significant Budget announcement your goodself has stated that that interest on 60% contribution to Employees’ Provident Fund scheme will be taxed. 2) The reason being given for this is to simplify the schemes and bring them all on par, with other schemes like the National Pension Scheme.Though initially it was felt  that the entire 60% would be taxed, the government later clarified that only interest on 60% amount will be taxed. 3) This announcement has evoked strong reactions from workers and unions across the country because this is a sentimental issue. In a country with non-existent social security, it is unfair to tax people's savings after working after a life time. Even if it is tax on inte...

Dear Sir, In a landmark judgement, the Mumbai High Court has banned new constructions in Mumbai w.e.f. March 1, 2016, i.e. today. This has been done due to the failure of the State Govt. and BMC to solve the city's dumping ground problem. Observing that ' a pollution free environment' is a fundamental right, the Honourable Court observed that compliance with Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) rules appeared to be a distant dream, the High Court told the BMC not to process any applications for new or commercial projects. Sir, now lets us have a look at Thane. Municipal Solid Waste. The Solid Waste generation in the TMC area is around 700 MT per day. Solid Waste Management of Thane Municipal Corporation managed as per Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling) Rule...

Volatility Cup ****** A friend has written about yesterday's match.  I have taken it a step further into the realm of the stock market. Would like to have your reactions, friends. (1) India scored 85/5 against Pak's 83 all out, but 3 Indian batsmen got out for a duck; none for Pak, (2) In a low scoring match, India's best bowler Ashwin was the worst of all Indian bowlers 3-0-21-0. Only Wahab Riaz was worse than him in the match. Easy (but completely unfair) to conclude from a single match that Ashwin was the worst bowler (3) The second highest score in both teams was "extras". If we total up the runs in both innings, "extras" was second highest score after Virat. "Extras" accounted for more than 17% of total runs scored n the match. (4) Only 18 boundaries were scored in the entire match. Virat hit 7 of those, just one less than the entire Pakistan team's 8. Not a single six in the whole match. NOW HERE IS MY INTERPRETATION FROM A ...
