इस तरह की बिक्री से एकत्र धन का इस्तेमाल सामाजिक क्षेत्र की स्कीमों के लिए किया जाएगा। पहले से सूचीबद्ध केंद्रीय सार्वजनिक उपक्रमों को अपने कम से कम दस प्रतिशत शेयरों की सार्वजनिक बिक्री करनी होगी।
गृहमंत्री पी चिदंबरम ने आर्थिक मामलों की मंत्रिमंडलीय समिति की बैठक के बाद बताया कि तीन साल तक लगातार मुनाफा कमाने वाली गैर सूचीबद्ध कंपनियों को अपनी आरंभिक सार्वजनिक पेशकश लानी होगी।
कांग्रेस के नेतृत्व वाली संप्रग सरकार ने अपने दूसरे कार्यकाल में दो सार्वजनिक उपक्रमों एनएचपीसी और ऑइल इंडिया को सूचीबद्ध करने का रास्ता पहले ही तैयार कर दिया है। आज के फैसले से और अधिक सार्वजिनक उपक्रम पूँजी बाजार में प्रवेश कर सकेंगे।
इस समय 40 सूचीबद्ध सरकारी कंपनियाँ हैं और बीएसएनएल सहित सौ से अधिक कंपनियाँ सूचीबद्धता की पात्रता रखती हैं।
चिदंबरम ने कहा कि केन्द्रीय सार्वजनिक उपक्रमों के बाजार में प्रवेश से सरकार की कुछ हिस्सेदारी का विनिवेश होगा। उन्होंने कहा कि यह काम बाजार के हालात अनुकूल होने और उचित समय आने पर किया जाएगा।
चिदंबरम ने बताया कि ऐसी सभी गैर सूचीबद्ध कंपनियों को स्टाक एक्सचेंजों में सूचीबद्ध किया जाएगा, जिनकी कोई संचयी हानि नहीं है और जो लगातार तीन साल से मुनाफा कमा रही हैं।
इस सवाल पर कि अंतत: सूचीबद्ध होने वाली गैर सूचीबद्ध कंपनियों के भी दस प्रतिशत शेयरों की सार्वजनिक बिक्री की जाएगी, चिदंबरम ने कहा कि निस्संदेह मुनाफा कमाने वाली किसी भी कंपनी में सरकार शत प्रतिशत हिस्सेदारी नहीं रख सकती।
गृहमंत्री ने कहा कि संसद के दोनों सदनों की बैठक को राष्ट्रपति के अभिभाषण में और वित्त मंत्री के बजट भाषण में साफ कहा गया था कि सरकार विनिवेश कार्यक्रम में जनता की हिस्सेदारी को प्रोत्साहित करेगी।
उन्होंने कहा कि सरकार का मानना है कि सार्वजनिक उपक्रम राष्ट्र की संपत्ति हैं और इस संपत्ति का कुछ हिस्सा जनता के पास होना चाहिए, जबकि सरकार के पास कम से कम 51 प्रतिशत हिस्सेदारी रहेगी।
चिदंबरम ने कहा कि विनिवेश प्रक्रिया से एकत्र होने वाला धन राष्ट्रीय निवेश फंड में जमा होगा। अप्रैल 2009 से मार्च 2012 तक इस फंड में जमा होने वाले धन का इस्तेमाल सामाजिक क्षेत्र की स्कीमों के पूँजी व्यय के मद में होगा, जबकि अप्रैल 2012 के बाद राष्ट्रीय निवेश फंड की यथास्थिति बरकरार रहेगी।
उन्होंने कहा कि कठिन राजकोषीय स्थिति के मद्देनजर यह फैसला किया गया है। यह वित्तपोषण का अतिरिक्त संसाधन है।
पारिवारिक सूत्रों ने बताया कि रात लगभग 11:30 बजे तबीयत बिगड़ने पर जोशी को नरेंद्र मोहन अस्पताल ले जाया गया, जहाँ डॉक्टरों ने उन्हें मृत घोषित कर दिया। प्रभाष जोशी दैनिक जनसत्ता के संस्थापक संपादक थे।

It was one of my best knocks: Tendulkar
Hyderabad: Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar rated his 175 against Australia here Thursday as one of the best knocks of his career.
Tendulkar scored 175 off 141 ball, enroute to his record 17,168 runs, but couldn't prevent India from losing the fifth ODI to Australia by three runs.
"I thought we started off really well then lost wickets. Suresh (Raina) and I had a good partnership but in the end, it was disappointing. The pressure to keep scoring runs was there and we took it very close. But I feel it was one of my best knocks," said Tendulkar, who was adjudged as the Man of the Match.
The batting maestro praised Raina for playing a strokefilled run-a-ball that got India close while chasing 351 to win.
On his personal milestone of crossing 17,000 runs, Tendulkar said: "I care about playing for India, it's a passion and I have been absoloutely honoured to play for India so long."
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni said that the match was lost due to mental calculation.
"They got off to a good start and we never got into a postion to contain them. It was up to us to chase it. We got a good start and we came in the end due to Tendulkar and Raina. We lost it in our mental calculation, not because of our talent. It was one of the good ODI tracks we have seen in India, you have to be smart. Hopefully we will be up for the next two games," he said.
Australian captain Ricky Ponting also applauded Tendulkar for playing one of the best knocks in his 20-year-old career.
"It was one of the amazing games and certainly one of the best innings ever from Sachin. Sachin didn't play many bad shots today! It's really unbelievable how we have played, considering all the injuries," he said.

As much as Rs 30,000 crore could be available to the government after the Cabinet today made it mandatory for all listed and profitable public sector undertakings (PSUs) to have a minimum public float of 10 per cent. And decided to list all unlisted PSUs which made profits during the past three years. In a major policy shift, the Cabinet also decided to mend rules that will allow the government to dip into the disinvestment corpus and fund its ambitious social sector programmes.
The decision to use the money raised from stake sale in PSUs will help the government tide over the immediate crisis on the fiscal front. A high fiscal deficit, estimated at 6.8 per cent of the gross domestic product in 2009-10, had posed huge challenges for the government, forcing it to borrow more from the market, and threatening to undermine the growth prospects in the medium term.

Divestment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the business concept. For other uses, see Disinvestment and Divestment campaign.In finance and economics, divestment or divestiture is the reduction of some kind of asset for either financial or ethical objectives or sale of an existing business by a firm. A divestment is the opposite of an investment.
Contents[hide] |
[edit] Motives
Firms may have several motives for divestitures.
First, a firm may divest (sell) businesses that are not part of its core operations so that it can focus on what it does best. For example, Eastman Kodak, Ford Motor Company, and many other firms have sold various businesses that were not closely related to their core businesses.
A second motive for divestitures is to obtain funds. Divestitures generate funds for the firm because it is selling one of its businesses in exchange for cash. For example, CSX Corporation made divestitures to focus on its core railroad business and also to obtain funds so that it could pay off some of its existing debt.
A third motive for divesting is that a firm's "break-up" value is sometimes believed to be greater than the value of the firm as a whole. In other words, the sum of a firm's individual asset liquidation values exceeds the market value of the firm's combined assets. This encourages firms to sell off what would be worth more when liquidated than when retained.
[edit] Divestment for financial goals
Often the term is used as a means to grow financially in which a company sells off a business unit in order to focus their resources on a market it judges to be more profitable, or promising. Sometimes, such an action can be a spin-off. (For the United States); Divestment of certain parts of a company can occur when required by the Federal Trade Commission before a merger with another firm is approved. A company can divest assets to wholly owned subsidiaries.
The largest, and likely most-famous, corporate divestiture in history was the 1984 U.S. Department of Justice-mandated breakup of the Bell System into AT&T and the seven Baby Bells.
[edit] Method of divestment
Some firms are using technology to facilitate the process of divesting some divisions. They post the information about any division that they wish to sell on their website so that it is available to any firm that may be interested in buying the division. For example, Alcoa has established an online showroom of the divisions that are for sale. By communicating the information online, Alcoa has reduced its hotel, travel, and meeting expenses.
With Economic liberalization of the Indian economy, Ministry of Finance of India had set up a separate Department of Disinvestments.

Sachin's 175 goes in vain as India lose by 3 runs
Hyderabad: In a match that went straight down to the wire Australia defeated India by three runs despite a spectacular knock of 175 by Sachin Tendulkar.
India were chasing a near-impossible target of 350/4 put up by the Australians but Tendulkar changed the mood of the game with a cracking innings that was studded with 19 fours and four sixes.
India though lost too many wickets towards the end including that of Tendulkar as Ricky Ponting's men pulled out a comeback just when India looked like running away with the game.
This win means that the visitors have a 3-2 lead in the series.
Chasing Australia's mammmoth 350 for four built mainly around Shaun Marsh's 112 and Shane Watson's 93, the Indians rode on Tendulkar's heroic 141-ball knock to come within sniffing distance of a remarkable win but the tailenders faltered under pressure to be all out for 347 with two balls to spare.
It was a remarkable exhibition of strokeplay by Tendulkar, who not only notched up his 45th ODI hundred but also became the first cricketer in the history of the game to cross the 17,000 run mark.
It was also the fastest century by an Indian against the Australians as well as the highest individual score against the visitors.
The jam-packed Rajiv Gandhi International stadium witnessed an extraordinary contest which saw as many as 697 runs being scored in a game where fortunes fluctuated from one end to the other till the very end.
The two teams will now travel to Guwahati for the sixth one-dayer to be held on Sunday.
Tendulkar was at his best from the onset as he smashed the Australian attack to all parts of the ground.
Opening the batting he first shared 66 runs with Virender Sehwag (38 off 30) and then put together a vital 137-run partnership with Suresh Raina who made a run-a-ball 59.
But Tendulkar's dismissal in the first ball of the 48th over, caught when he played the scoop shot at fine leg by a diving Nathan Huaritz unhinged the Indian innings as the tail-enders could not manage the required 19 runs in 17 balls.
Ravindra Jadeja (23) and Praveen Kumar (9) were run out, while Ashish Nehra fell for one as India slid to defeat from a healthy 299 for four in the 43rd over.
The Indian innings was struggling at 162 for four when Tendulkar was joined by Raina and their excellent stand for the fifth wicket brought India close to the doorsteps of victory.
Except for Sehwag and Tendulkar the Indian top order failed as Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni departed cheaply to leave Tendulkar with the huge task of guiding India past the finishing line.
Tendulkar who had been outstanding in the field while most of his other teammates fumbled when Australia batted, got the ideal partner in young Raina.
The two took India from a difficult 162 for four in the 24th over with their century stand with Tendulkar guiding his younger partner. They were separated only when India needed 52 runs from 45 balls, Raina top-edged a sweep to keeper Graham Manou.
The hosts asked for the batting Power Play when 46 were needed from the last six overs with four wickets in hand after Harbhajan Singh made a first ball duck. But to add to India's misery Tendulkar started to develop leg cramps.
India needed 31 runs from the last 24 balls and then 19 from 18 when Tendulkar and Ravindra Jadeja departed at the same score. The equation was brought down to 16 from 12 when Ashish Nehra was out.
The hosts needed eight of the last over and got four of those before Praveen Kumar was run by Hauritz after the right-hander went for the second run.
Tendulkar who notched his fourth 150-plus innings in his 435th ODI, played with a lot of freedom once he reached the landmark of 17,000 runs.
Tendulkar and Sehwag were going great guns before the Delhi dasher top-edged a hook off Ben Hilfenhaus to fine leg.
Ponting's decision to bring in Clint McKay into the attack in place of the expensive Bollinger worked as Gambhir was caught at third man.
Potatoes, onions keep food prices soaring; inflation up by 13 %
New Delhi: Food inflation inched up to 13.3 per cent for the week ended October 24, primarily due to rising prices of potatoes and onions, against 12.85 per cent in the previous week ended October 17.
Meanwhile, the government introduced a new system for presenting inflation data of only primary articles and fuel products on a weekly basis. The overall inflation figures would now be known in the middle of every month.
Based on the new guidelines on disclosing the official wholesale price index, India's annual rate of inflation based for primary articles and fuels stood unaltered at minus 6.2 percent for the week ended Oct 24, official data showed Thursday.
The annual inflation rate for food articles was sharply higher at 13.39 percent for the week under review. Similarly, the annual rise in the index for pulses was 23.44 percent and that for cereals was 11.15 percent. The meat, eggs and poultry index rose 25 percent.
The statistics released by the industry ministry showed that during the week ended Oct 24, there was a 3 percent rise in prices of moong, 2 percent rise each in prices of wheat and bajra, while condiments, spices and gram became dearer by 1 percent.
Prices of fish, however, fell 3 percent, fruits and vegetables became cheaper by 2 percent, while barley and jowar prices fell 1 percent each. Under non-food primary articles, raw silk prices rose 6 percent and raw rubber became dearer by 3 percent.
The index for fuel, power, light and lubricants remained unchanged.
As per a decision taken by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, the weekly index numbers on prices will not be released for manufactured products, but limited to primary articles and fuels. While primary articles have a 22 percent weight, fuels carry a 14 percent weight.
The full data on wholesale price index will only be released on a monthly basis.
Both the Reserve Bank of India and the government have warned India's annual inflation rate based on wholesale price index for all commodities will rise to 6-6.5 percent by March, while the Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council has pegged it at 6 percent.
The inflation rate for primary articles inched up to 8.94 per cent, mainly due to high food prices. The inflation rate for this category was 8.67 per cent for the previous week, and stood at 11.73 per cent during the corresponding period in 2008.
The new series of cumulative inflation for all commodities, with a revised base of 2004-05, will be out on November 12 and will, henceforth, be released on a monthly basis.
This announcement was made in accordance with an approval by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs two weeks ago to release inflation data on a monthly basis.

FATED TO FADE AWAY - It is high time the Left wore its thinking cap again | ||
- Ashok Mitra | ||
A faded group photograph one chances upon shows the faces of the earnest members of the first national executive committee of the Congress Socialist Party formed exactly 75 years ago, in 1934. The CSP was put together within the folds of the Indian National Congress as a kind of ginger group to push the lugubrious juggernaut of the great parent party towards a more radical direction. The elderly caretakers of the Congress listened — half-mockingly, half-patronizingly — to the new breed who talked of such exotic things as happenings in the Soviet Union and the rise of the Nazis in Germany and the fascists in Italy as direct spin-offs of economic depression and mass unemployment. Even in the United States of America, capitalism was said to be malfunctioning, the ranks of hunger marches swelled every day, extensive public works under State auspices were somehow saving the system. The dedicated crowd milling within the CSP were grappling with the significance of these events for India. The nation must of course be freed, here and now, from foreign shackles, but that was not enough. What sort of free India was it to be, what would be the contours of its social and economic order? India belonged to its masses: the overwhelming number of dispossessed peasantry and underpaid workers and artisans of various descriptions as well as the mute castes and tribes at the receiving end of exploitation over centuries. The Congress must adopt concrete programmes for a total reconstruction of the economy in post-independent India so that a proper kisan-mazdoor raj emerged. The CSP was going to see to all that. Its first national executive committee, the faded photograph attests, was a curious mélange: Farid Ansari, E.M.S. Namboodiripad, Dinkar Mehta, Nabakrushna Choudhuri, Narendra Deva, P.Y. Deshpande, S.M. Joshi, Soli Batlivala, S. Sampurnanand, Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay, Jayaprakash Narayan, N.G. Goray, Achyut Patwardhan, Purushottam Trikamdas, Charles Mascarenhas. It was too improbable a combination to last long; it did not. Communists like Namboodiripad, Batlivala and Dinkar Mehta left this clandestine shelter by 1941. Nabakrushna Choudhuri, the devout Gandhiite, also soon detached himself, and later became Congress chief minister of Orissa, and subsequently joined Vinoba Bhave in his bhoodaan mission. Sampurnanand too, at some point, became Congress chief minister of India's largest state; by then he was an arch-social conservative leaning towards Hindu orthodoxy. Minoo Masani, a great admirer of Soviet collectivization in the 1930s, somersaulted, ending up as a foaming-in-the-mouth anti-communist and co-founded the Swatantra Party. Narendra Deva, the gentlest of souls, gradually withdrew from active politics and remained satisfied with his role as an ideologue of socialism, a slice of Marx, a slice of Gandhi, mostly Rousseau. Jayaprakash Narayan, the underground hero of the 1942 Quit India movement, mellower with the years; most of the time he was with the Praja Socialist Party — the CSP's direct legatee — but was also with Vinoba Bhave. He finally led the nava nirman struggles in the 1970s to emerge as the father figure of the Janata Party, which demolished Indira Gandhi's Emergency. He was lucky to die before his handiwork broke into smithereens. Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay was always a rebel of a woman in search of a cause, which at the end she discovered in cottage crafts and the theatre movement. Of the rest, S.M. Joshi, Achyut Patwardhan and N.G. Goray clung for long years to the Praja Socialist Party and its later incarnations, walked into the Janata Party when J.P. put it together, then migrated to the Janata Dal or one of its innumerable factions. Some of them had developed pockets of influence among a number of caste groups, 'other backward classes'; innate feudal instincts, however, drove them to waste their strength in endless internal squabbles until it was disaster time. The Indian National Congress, it would seem, was both the curse and the ultimate provider of shelter for several of those rebels who loved to talk socialism in their calf days. It supposedly represented 'the stream of national consciousness'; its cloying charm was almost impossible to resist. For quite a few of them, the expression, 'national consensus', would have a bewitching effect: yes, engage in debate, let arguments and rhetoric have free flow, yet, at the end of it, it would be gross lack of patriotism not to fall in and join the national mainstream. Others had disappeared; for the past few decades it is, therefore, only the communists who could claim the socialist inheritance. The Left and the communists became synonymous. Given their ideology, the communists, many had expected, would not get caught in the trap of 'national consensus'. Were not they the quintessential Left, the other side in the class war, where there could be no scope for compromise with adversarial forces? Their failure to tackle satisfactorily the class-caste dialectic was, however, a major problem. Equally ticklish was the issue of whether the global brotherhood of the working classes transcended national priorities. The communists have been extraordinarily cautious after the experience of 1962, and have taught themselves to be careful so that nobody could dub them as less than 'patriotic'. The Left led by the communists has, for instance, ceased to question the huge allocations in the name of defence and national security. The nuclear agreement signed with the US can be safely opposed; but courage fails when the question is one of across-the-board reduction in defence outlay; to argue for such reduction would not be 'politically correct'. The Left has thus modulated its ideology; it too must be an integral part of the patriotic front. Consider this other instance. The Left in the past used to advocate the thesis that the Indian nation is a conglomerate of linguistic — and sometimes ethnic — sub-nationalities, and overall national progress was impossible if these sub-nationalities were left out in the cold. Its emphasis on an equitable structure of Centre-state relations stemmed directly from this understanding of the polity. They availed of the opportunity of the temporary decline of the Congress in the post-Emergency phase and were able to gain much credibility for their demand for expanded financial powers for the states. They dazzled only to disappoint. In the course of the past couple of decades, they have swung completely in the other direction: the state headed by the Left in West Bengal became most vocal in its support for full fiscal integration across the nation, a cause dear to the heart of the capitalists. It has indeed been a bizarre spectacle, the Left campaigning for a financial regime where the states will in effect be permanently at the mercy of the Centre. Even on the issue of globalization, the Left has succumbed to centripetal urges. The state governments under its control mouth the formal party line against economic liberalization. This is nonetheless being accompanied by a desperate zeal to invite capital, including foreign capital, into their premises. In a competitive environment, the Left, the argument goes, could not allow the territories under its influence to turn into an industry-less desert because of dearth of capital. Examining the feasibility of industrialization via the public sector route is no longer on the agenda. Now for the tailpiece. The Congress ruling at the Centre, according to party theorem, represents feudal-bourgeois oppressor classes against whom the Left is to pursue a relentless battle. True, the Left is under great stress since the Maoists, for their own reason, have chosen the formal Left as their principal enemy. Even so, it is altogether incongruous how, to combat the Maoists, the Left has totally identified itself with the Centre. The incongruity appears all the greater because not so long ago the Left was vociferously opposed to the very concept of the Centre raising a police force; was not law and order a state subject? These are disturbing developments. Should not the Left re-wear its thinking cap? And, while doing so, should not it ask itself how a situation could be allowed to develop where Maoists can instantly mobilize a few thousands to lay siege on a railway station in a tribal belt, where a partisan of the Left dares not enter the area without adequate security guard? Or has a decision already been reached for self-destruction, the Left is to fade away — like the faded faces in that group photo discussed in the earlier paragraphs? http://www.telegraphindia.com/1091106/jsp/opinion/story_11698645.jsp

London, Nov 6 (PTI) She is known for her unconventional choices and now US first lady Michelle Obama is setting another precedent by the first presidential wife to appear on a reality TV series. The First Lady will make a guest appearance on the popular series ''Iron Chef America'' which features British cook Nigella Lawson as a judge, reported Daily Mail online.
The episode of the popular series, which pits well-known chefs against each others, has been filmed at the White House and will be aired in the New Year. Many of the ingredients for the meals prepared in the show were chosen from the recently planted White House vegetable garden.
Michelle agreed to take part in the show to promote her campaign of healthy living. During the show, which attracts an audience of 1.5m in the US, she will be seen talking to the chefs about the importance of getting children to eat vegetables.
It is the first time a First Lady, or even a member of the White House staff, has featured in a TV reality show. The move is likely to open up the White House to more criticism over its increasing links to Hollywood.
Last week it was revealed that a list of visitors to the White House in the first nine months of the Obama presidency was peppered with celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Denzel Washington. PTI KKR VSS.
Under Koda's watch, aide invested in 5 mines abroad: I-T
Fri, Nov 6 05:38 AM
As the Enforcement Directorate closed in on former Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda — the Jharkhand High Court today directed the state to produce a progress report on November 12 on the Vigilance probe into the disproportionate assets case against Koda and some of his former cabinet colleagues — investigations by the Income Tax department have uncovered that during his less than two-year stint as CM, his close associate Sanjay Kumar Choudhary invested in five mines abroad.
Documents seized by the Income Tax during searches last Saturday show that Choudhary — he was found carrying Rs 6.14 lakh in Indian and foreign currencies in his bags at Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport terminal on September 17 last year — had invested in three mines in South Africa (gold, uranium and coal), a coal mine in Liberia and another coal mine "near Thailand".
Koda was Chief Minister from September 2006 to August 2008.
The pattern of ownership, the share held by Choudhary and the quantum of reserves in these mines are not known. But in a May 19, 2008 letter to the Managing Director of National Bank, Dubai, Choudhary, Managing Director of Dubai-based Blue Techno Project FZCO, transferred five lakh Dirham (one UAE Dirham is roughly Rs 12) from his current account 0153662065 to The Clean Energy Company (CEC), account number 0151595435.
A file seized by Income Tax and handed over to the Enforcement Directorate for scrutiny revealed that the Blue Techno Project FZCO had purchased "P T Gunung Bara Coal Mine, 66 km by road from the jetty and 340 km from jetty to anchorage point Muara Jawa, near Thailand" from CEC.
"Over 50 per cent work of road development is completed. Jetty/port construction is in progress. Commencement of production within six months. Excellent coal seams of thickness as high as seven metres. GCV 5300-5400 with sulphur less than one per cent," states the same file. This mine, according to the file, is estimated to have 100 million tonnes of coal worth US $ 5,000,000,000.
Meanwhile, people who knew Choudhary — apart from a bungalow near Dimna Lake in Tatanagar, he is said to have flats and malls in Dubai — still remember how his father Jai Narayan used to cycle door-to-door, selling khaini (tobacco) to make ends meet. ¿After Choudhary came in contact with Kodaji through close aide Binod Sinha, lady luck smiled on them,¿ said his neighbour Ajay Kumar.
Koda, Choudhary and Sinha are among eight persons being probed by the ED under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. Notices served on them by the ED require them to appear before the directorate.
Koda is said to have admitted during questioning that he knew Sinha and Choudhary but claimed he had no business deals with them. Likely to be discharged from the Apollo Hospital in Ranchi where he has been admitted, Koda maintained: ¿I am being implicated in a false case.¿
CBI now probes procedural lapse by DoT
Fri, Nov 6 05:38 AM
In a move that could spell more trouble for communications & IT minister A Raja, investigating agency CBI has begun inquiring into what might have led the department of telecommunications to disregard then law minister HR Bhardwaj's opinion on the procedure for granting new telecom licences and, instead, directly approach then solicitor-general Goolam Vahanvati for his views. Was Vahanvati aware that the law minister had already furnished written opinion that was contrary to his advice? These are some of the questions to which CBI is seeking answers. Sources said the questioning of junior officers at DoT prompted CBI to investigate the serious procedural lapse by DoT and Vahanvati, who is now attorney general. In November 2007, DoT sought the law ministry's views on whether new licences should be granted through auctions or on a first-cum-first-served basis at prices discovered in 2001. Its opinion was clear: either conduct auctions or explore a new mechanism through a group of ministers. The law ministry explicitly opposed granting licences at 2001 prices and asked DoT to keep it informed about the final decision.
Then DoT secretary DS Mathur and telecom commission member-finance Manju Madhavan concurred with the law ministry's views and had differences with Raja on the subject. Now, CBI will seek details from them, as well as recently retired DoT secretary Siddhartha Behura, during whose tenure the licences were allocated. Raja disagreed with the law ministry's views and later sought an opinion from Vahanvati, who said there was no need for auctions.
U.S. becomes top country brand under Obama - survey
- Buzz Up
Fri, Nov 6 10:38 AM
Enlarge Photo U.S. President Barack Obama makes remarks about a shooting at a U.S. Army base in...Barack Obama has done it again. The president's starpower has made the United States the place most people want to visit and do business with, according to an annual survey that ranks nations like retail brands.
The Country Brand Index, compiled by brand consultancy FutureBrand, found the United States had unseated Australia, which held the top spot for the past three years. Australia came in third this year with Canada rising to second plce.
New Zealand and France rounded up the top five country brands in this year's index that included 102 countries.
"The Obama effect has seen the United States earn the coveted top spot for the first time in the fifth annual index," FutureBrand, which is part of Interpublic Group of Companies, said in a statement.
"The revitalisation of Brand USA, and other factors, have resulted in the effect on Australia's ranking. It highlights the importance of keeping a country brand fresh, relevant and engaging in a highly competitive international marketplace," added Tim Riches, CEO FutureBrand Singapore.
The index is based on a survey of about 3,000 business and leisure travellers from nine countries.
In addition to branding countries, it also identifies global trends in travel and tourism, which the statement said was the world's fastest growing economic sector.
The United States was seen as the ideal place for business, one of the top places for families, shopping and quality products, as well as one of the countries people wanted to visit whether for the first time or again.
The FutureBrand survey echoes a similar poll which showed that the United States was the most admired country globally, largely thanks to Obama's global popularity.
Looking ahead, the index indentified the United Arab Emirates -- which includes the Gulf cities Dubai and Abu Dhabi -- China, and Vietnam as the top three nations likely to become major tourist destinations in the next five years.
Croatia, South Africa and India also made the list.
With the global economic crisis tightening purse-strings across the world, the survey showed that bargain-driven travel would remain a major trend, with consumers "thinking like financial analysts in chosing destinations and properties that are undervalued and booking trips that allow them to maintain the style they were accustomed to in boom times."
This year's index was conducted in conjunction with public relations firm Weber Shandwick.
"The days of countries marketing themselves with travel posters are over," said Rene A. Mack, president of Weber Shandwick's Travel & Lifestyle Practice.

BSE Sensex to start higher but seen volatile
Fri, Nov 6 09:10 AM
Enlarge Photo People watch a large screen displaying India's benchmark share index on the facade of the...MUMBAI (Reuters) The BSE Sensex is set to open higher on Friday, mirroring the rise in world equities after better-than-expected U.S. jobs data bolstered investor confidence in the global economy.
Data showed fewer U.S. workers filed new jobless insurance claims than forecast last week -- hitting a 10-month low. U.S. non-farm productivity rose more than expected in the third quarter.
"With global cues looking good, we should also open in the positive," said Kunal Sukhani, manager at Asian Markets Securities.
"But volatility will continue to remain high, until investors are able to establish a direction for the market," he said.
Energy giant Reliance Industries will be watched as hearing in its high-profile gas pricing dispute with Reliance Natural Resources resumed on Thursday.
Asian shares were firm with the MSCI's measure of markets other than Japan trading 1.7 percent higher by 0326 GMT, while Japan's Nikkei was up more than a percent.
The Nifty India stock futures in Singapore were trading 1 percent higher, indicating a positive start in the domestic market.
On Thursday, the 30-share BSE index closed up 0.95 percent, or 151.77 points, at 16,063.90 after falling as much as 2.2 percent during trade.
