Its a long post ... have patience to read it completely... I'll divide my answer into points and it might be long. So, lets start with some History. Its the pre-independence era. There was a company formed and named Associate Journals Limited ( AJL ). This was a publishing house which published newspapers in Hindi and Urdu portraying views about the importance of freedom, etc. The  National Herald  was the English newspaper which was published by AJL. Jawaharlal Nehru was the chairperson of AJL at the time it was established. During the Emergency, this paper stopped its publication. It revived itself in 1986 but fully stopped its publication again in 2008 with a debt of about 90 crores. Now, let's come to what the "scam" here is. So, AJL is running in loss. The Indian National Congress( INC ) decides to give it a loan of about  90 crores  to cover its losses and pay it debts. In November of 2010, a new company called The Young Indian Limit

Annually, approximately 3000 TMC of Godavari river water is wasted into the Bay of Bengal. In a bid to direct that water to arid regions in Rayalaseema, CBN conceived the idea of Pattiseema project. Image courtesy: South Report The Pattiseema lift irrigation project would lift the surplus flooding water from river godavari into the Right Canal of Polavaram which is nearly complete. Under the Bachawat tribunal and inter-state agreement, 80 tmc of water can be diverted from River Godavari to River Krishna.  The water from Pattiseema project will travel 160 kms. and will join River Krishna at Vijayawada in the up waters of Prakasam barrage. Water will then be supplied to the Rayalaseema through Pothireddypadu head regulator for its Irrigational and Domestic needs making it a drought free region.

A  Redditor asks about difference between milk storage in the US & India "  My friend in US says they buy big bottles of milk and use it over weeks. I'm from India and we buy milk in pouches. It gets stale in 2-3 days. How does milk in US stays fresh for weeks? " Then an Engineer who designs Dairy Equipment and has specifically studied milk distribution in India showed up on the thread and he explained the difference between milk storage in the US & India. Here is the Answer:- The vast majority of Indian milk distribution is usually carried out at " ambient temperature " meaning it isn't cooled in any way, and isn't distributed in pouches. Usually, it takes about 4 hours for milk to be transported to your doodhwallas (milk delivery people), who then add water to it, and sell it on to their customers. Average time for milk to go from cow to the customers is 6 hours. By most dairy standards, this milk is already unfit for human consumpti

It was part of a Saudi-led ground operation in Yemen, involving US-made Abrams M1 tanks and other armored vehicles. A video shows what are said to be Houthi rebels in Yemen using old Soviet-designed Fagot anti-tank guided missiles to destroy American-made, Saudi Arabian-owned and operated Abrams M1 MBT. A direct hit by a Fagot missile just below the M1’s turret led to the detonation of the tank’s ordnance payload stored in the turret’s back. This is the weakest spot of America’s main battle tank, which leaves the crew with virtually no chance of survival. The Fagot antitank missile system entered operational service in 1970. Its missile uses a 2.5 kg High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) warhead which can penetrate up to 600 mm of conventional steel armor and has an effective range of up to 2,500 m through the use of an improved solid propellant sustainer rocket motor and lengthened guidance wire.

The Goods and Service Tax Bill or GST Bill, officially known as The Constitution (One Hundred and Twenty-Second Amendment) Bill, 2014, proposes a national Value added Tax to be implemented in India from April 2016. "Goods and Services Tax" would be a comprehensive indirect tax on manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and services throughout India, to replace taxes levied by the Central and State governments. GST would be levied and collected at each stage of sale or purchase of goods or services based on the input tax credit method, irrespective of State.

The tax system is described by Central Taxes and State Taxes, which may be further subdivided into Excise Duty, Service Tax, VAT and Customs Duty.
