Reliance Jio to launch World's cheapest VoLTE phones

Reliance Jio has gained immense popularity within just months of its launch, and one of the most important reasons for the same are its LYF smartphones, which offer VoLTE support for as low as Rs 3,000. However, in a bid to reach more consumers, the operator might be launching even more affordable 4G VoLTE-capable offerings. Interestingly, while the  previous rumours  have indicated that Jio might be introducing feature phones under the  LYF Easy moniker , as per new reports, the phones will be Android-powered. However, the difference would be that these handsets won’t have a touchscreen, and would offer numeric keypads instead… similar to feature phones. Initially, two phones would be launched between January to March next year, priced affordably at Rs 1,000 and 1,500 – making them the world’s cheapest phones with 4G VoLTE compatibility. Reliance Jio is reportedly partnering with Indian phone maker Lava and China’s Transsion which operates under the ...

Words of Wisdom -Socrates' three-filter test

Rumour changes as it spreads. It is, infact, the fastest spreading thing ever. A very simple fact may be turned to a matter of great emotional importance because of rumour. It is a human nature that we tend to make opinions about a person based upon someone speaking to us.

I would like to share a story of Socrates,the great philosopher, which can be a great way to deal with rumour or gossip. One day a man came to Socrates and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?" "Hold on a minute" Socrates replied. "You can tell me anything about my friend if only it passes through the three filtered test". "What is t...

WE, THEY & A WITHERING CULTURE!!!!! WHO IS RESPONSIBLE???

The ongoing tweets and trolls about Flipkart being racist towards The "Gorkhas" is pouring on my newsfeed like anything else. This is not the first time, we Gorkhas are presented as “chowkidaars”. I’m completely against it, thereby condemning Flipkart in the most possible harsh words. They tend to disrespect the Gorkhas and “the khukuri”- which infact represents the Gorkha culture- which symbolizes our bravery. But, I have a question for everyone, do we, Gorkhas, have respect for our own culture??? I see many teenagers, mostly college students, they act like they have no knowledge about Nepali. They tend to speak it as some alien language. It's good that our brothers and sisters have a good knowledge about English.Well, that doesn’t mean speaking in Nepali will degrade your reputation or leave a mark of "uneducated"in thyself. Once, I came across a group of ladies conversing over their children- one lady...
