Travel of poor labourers at Delhi IGI airport

Anurag Bhatia
Last week while travelling to London from Delhi IGI airport I was standing in immigration queue. One of fellow passenger (likely from Bihar as per my guess from his accent) came right behind me. He was bit afraid and asked me in low voice if those (immigration) gates would get him to his flight for Dubai. I smiled and told him that it’s common passage for everyone travelling to just anywhere and explained to him about his gate by looking at his boarding pass.

The Inside Job

Saw excellent movie “The Inside Job” on 2008 market crash. It nicely explains that in fine details, people & companies who were involved, how it happened and finally what Govt. did. I was amazed by funny part of story where they let one to insure against things which you they did not own! Movie Trailer Have fun!

Experiences from Bangladesh trip

Anurag Bhatia
So last month I had a wonderful trip to Bangladesh for bdNOG. This is bit delayed. Some thoughts on infrastructure In terms of infrastructure - roads & traffic, power, quality of builds - it seemed like India in 2000’s. Specifically roads and traffic was bit terrible and even as an Indian (who manages to drive in Indian traffic!) I still got scared out of traffic in Dhaka. Speeds, roughness and overtaking is pretty high.

Anurag Bhatia
And I am back with blog post. It has been almost months since I posted last time. Last few months of life went extremely busy but I loved them. A completely new learning curve. My today’s post is primarily about India’s BBNL. It’s not the first time I am posting about it but since topic is pretty widely in media these days due to Modi’s Digital India plan. So what is BBNL?
