Who is Hassan Ali Khan?

Posted: 03 Mar 2011 03:09 AM PST

Hassan Ali Khan, son of a Hyderabad excise officer, is a scrap dealer with an annual income of Rs 30 lakh. He has a Swiss bank account with $8 billion in deposits. This figure has been verified by India Today from a letter written by UBS, Zurich, to Khan.

The government of India has confirmed the existence of this account in UBS, and ordered him to pay Rs 50,000 crore in tax on that wealth. Khan has not paid a rupee.

Racing horses is his passion and he regularly pays lakhs of rupees in cash to buy the ones he desires.

He is known to throw the most lavish parties in Mumbai and Pune.

He has a fleet of cars worth crores of rupees.

He has huge foreign funds at his disposal in different Swiss accounts and other places across the world.

Ali dabbled in antiques, car rentals, metal trading and exported rice and onion to the Middle East before he came into big money. How he did it, no one quite knows.

Hassan is also said to be a conduit for transferring politicians' and industrialists' ill-gotten gains into Swiss banks?

In 1991, in Hyderabad Hassan had entered the world of horse racing with just two horses. Soon, he moved to Mumbai and then expanded his base to Pune, Bangalore, Chennai and Delhi.

Posted: 03 Mar 2011 01:27 AM PST

I got problem with setup box and the following is the summary of how Relaince Big TV Customer care troubled me.


1. On Feb 25th 2011 at 2:20pm I gave a complaint about my setup box and Service Request No is xxxxxxxxx.

2. On Feb 28th 2011 at 11:40am I received a text message saying above request is closed and Rs. 175.00 charged to my account. But No one attended to my issue and it was not solved and also my account was suspended without any reason.

3. On Feb 28th 2011 at 12:00pm i gave complaint about the same and Service Request No's are xxxxxxxxx and xxxxxxxxx.

4. On March 1st 2011, I called customer care and they said it was in process.

5. On March 2nd 2011, I called customer care and they said it was in process.

6. On March 3rd 2011, I got a text message saying xxxxxxxxx is closed. But no one attend the issue and my problem was not solved. Even I gave land line number in case my mobile is out of coverage.

BIG TV customer care gave lot of pressure, tension by suspending my account, charged the amount without providing the service and also deducting my account every day with out watching or using your services or channels.

and Still the problem is not solved and can some one help me out how to address this issue. Can I goto consumer court.

Planning to go for Tikona from MTNL Broadband - Your feedback required for Mumbai

Posted: 03 Mar 2011 01:18 AM PST

Hi guys,
I am on mtnl 495 combo plan with 320 kbps unlimited. I roughly use 8 GB in month on mtnl.

Tikona has a 8 GB plan with 2mbps and then 512 kbps unlimited if I cross 8GB for a month. The cost is 799+tax.

please guide me how is this broadband service in Mumbai?
Currently I do not get a wifi of tikona on my laptop. So i guess they will install a nano staation on my terrace.

Let me know can I use my desktop+ wifi laptop+ wifi mobile in that 799 scheme?
are there any hidden charges? like sify had a maintance charge?

any other inputs would be appreciated..

The Mega Graphic Card Thread

Posted: 03 Mar 2011 01:11 AM PST

alright. here is what a friend suggested.

he said you should first concentrate on changing your SMPS. basically upgrade it to something much more capable.

but if you are just looking for a good graphic card. he suggests Radeon 6850 from your list. obvious answer i guess. but this would be a future safe upgrade considering you are planning to buy a 23" inch display.

Wifi on Reliance

You don't need to logon each time when you need to use the net, the first time you logon you will get a login portal and then you use your login and password given by reliance to logon there after you can browse without any issues from multiple computers if you have connected it via a wifi router, the login expires automatically after 24 hours so after that again you need to logon to the reliance portal to continue browsing, the sad part is that the session auto logs you out every 24 hours and there is no setting to increase the same.

I suggest you see this vid that I made it will make a lot of things a lot clearer to you

bsnl 3g data card call barring through software in pc

Posted: 02 Mar 2011 02:31 PM PST

you cannot block outgoing calls, however if you want to restrict incoming call, best possible option is to insert the SIM into a phone and activate Call Divert to another number
but make sure you set divert to your own number as any call picked up by destination number will be charged on your SIM card.

on a few handsets and network, a diverted call when reaching another number/handset, it will show a diverted call symbol, so you can receive only if needed.

MTNL Billing problem: be alert

Posted: 02 Mar 2011 12:19 PM PST

Guys,

I am using MTNL 3G since June 2010. It worked fine for me until today. I am not able to connect to the internet. I talked to Customer Care and tried many things, only to find out that my prepaid balance is zero. This is a surprise.:impissed:

I had balance of Rs.88 after my last data usage worth Rs. 12 while I was on roaming on BSNL network.

To my surprise, customer care guy told me that after using Rs. 12 worth data. There is another download of 90MB of data. This session ended only after my balance got exhausted. :madness:

I am 100% sure that I did not use this data. Now I am scared of using MTNL. My balance can be drained even without my knowledge. :whistle: Luckily I didn't recharge with a big amount last time as I was planning to switch to 6 month/4500 plan. I have to rethink......

Blasphemy law in Pakistan: Report

Posted: 02 Mar 2011 07:42 AM PST

What is blasphemy law?

Anything said against Islam is considered a blasphemy and Penal Code of Islamic Republic of Pakistan are taken against who dares to that. The penalty ranges from a fine to death. More than 96% of Pakistan’s population is Muslim. If we compare anti-blasphemy laws of Muslim majority countries, Pakistan practices strictest laws. In 1927, the British colonial rulers of the sub-continent made it a criminal offence to commit “deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religious belief”. The law did not discriminate between religions. Pakistan’s late military ruler Mohammed Ziaul Haq, who was in power for 11 years from 1977, made several additions to its blasphemy laws, including life imprisonment for those defiling or desecrating the Holy Quran.

A number of people are killed in Pakistan for causing to Quran, some cases are posted below:
In November 1992, Gul Masih, a Christian, was sentenced to death after having remarked to his neighbor Mohammad Sajjad, a Muslim, he had read "that Mohammed had 11 wives, including a minor."
Riaz Ahmad, his son, and two nephews (Basharat Ahmad, Qamar Ahmad and Mushtaq Ahmad), all Ahmadis, were arrested and jailed on 21 November 1993. They were detained for having "said something derogatory." Local people in Piplan, Mianwali District, said that rivalry over Ahmad's position as village headman was the real motivation for the complaint against him. The Sessions Court rejected the bail applications of the accused. The Supreme Court granted bail in December 1997.

The police arrested Ayub Masih, a Pakistani Christian bricklayer for blasphemy on 14 October 1996 and jailed him for violation of § 295-C. Muhammad Akram, a Muslim neighbor to Masih, complained to the police that Masih had said Christianity was right, and Masih had recommended that Akram read Salman Rushdie's Satanic Verses.

In August 2003, the police arrested a Christian, Samuel Masih, for allegedly defiling a mosque by spitting on its wall. While in prison, Masih contracted tuberculosis. The authorities transported him to a hospital. There, on 24 May 2004, a police constable used a hammer to kill Masih. The constable said it was his duty as a Muslim to kill Masih.

On December 12, 2010, during a press conference major Islamic parties in Pakistan launched a campaign for upholding the sanctity of Muhammad against the proposed amendment in the blasphemy laws.

On 4 August 2009, a Muslim mob attacked a factory-owner by the name of Najeebullah and others at Sheikhupura in the Punjab. The mob killed Najeebullah and two others, and set fire to the factory. The mob complained that Najeebullah had placed an outdated calendar, which contained verses from the Quran, on a table. For that offense, a worker accused Najeebullah of blasphemy. The workers may have been in a dispute with Najeebullah over wages

In November 2010, Asia Bibi was sentenced to death by hanging on a charge of blasphemy; the case that has yet to be upheld by the Lahore High Court has sparked international reactions. Punjab Governer Salman Taseer was shot dead by his security guard on supporting Asia Bibi. Salman Taseer visited Asia Bibi in Jail and held a press conference with her He told media that Asia Bibi will be released soon and President of Pakistan will soon demolish his death sentence. Mass protests in Pakistan were held in Pakistan against his support to Asia Bibi. Many local Mosque's Imams across Pakistan said that Salman Taseer has defiled Mohammad and he should also be sentenced to death.

And the most recent one

On March 2nd, 2011 Shahbaz Bhatti was killed by gunmen in Islamabad as he was travelling to work, a few weeks after he had vowed to defy death threats over his efforts to reform Pakistan's blasphemy laws.

Why is there such a tension between Pakistani Christian’s and Muslims, actually the thing is, according to Christians Lord Jesus Christ, is the last messenger of the Lord God and he is the God himself as he was not born by the natural sexual process, and his life was full of supernatural happenings and signs. And he accomplished a lot of rules and regulations mentioned in The Holy Bible. So, according to Christianity The Lord Himself came between us in human form and has accomplished everything and has set an example of a perfect human being so the Prophet era has ended. Excluding the Prophets mentioned in the Book of revelation.

According to Islam Lord Jesus Christ was a normal prophet and not The Lord God himself. And Prophet Muhammad came after him giving further diverse revelations to the human kind.

When a religious preacher preaches his/her beliefs, it’s considered a blasphemy in Pakistan. Shahbaz Bhatti was a liberal leader and was a Roman Catholic and he mentioned in his meetings lately that he is not safe as Talibani’s and various other non liberal people are strictly against his movement.

There is no doubt that this tense situations and increasing non liberal thinking and forces across the border is becoming a cause of concern for India.

Problem: Port Forwarding on Beetel 220BX

Posted: 02 Mar 2011 05:08 AM PST

We have a External Static IP with my Airtel Broadband connection which is configured on a Beetel 220 BX in NAT mode.

I want to give outside access (from WAN/Internet) to my Apache server which is running on one of my XP client system (inside LAN) which is having a fixed IP 192.168.1.50

I figured out that PortForwarding is the solution to open it up. For the concerned router its called "Virtual Server" and I could enter the appropriate table fields but when I "Save/Reboot" my Router it's Resetting to it's Factory Settings !! Here, again I have to configure my Static IP in order to get my internet connection back. I tried this four/five times but in vain.

What could be the reason...? Is it a faulty router or any mis configuration from my side. Expecting an early resolution.

Thanks in adv.
