[www.keralites.net] Applying for SIM Card may require your fingerprints

 

There is no stop on SIM cards on forged documents despite several measures taken by the department of telecommunication. Physical verification of the customer is one of them. But the matter doesn't solve as there are many cases in which forged documents are attached as ID proof and address proof.
This is the matter of security and Home ministry is also very concerned about this. 26/11 attack on Mumbai is the latest example where terrorist used Indian SIM cards on forged documents.
Now the home ministry wants to set up a system in which along with documents one biometric feature such as fingerprints can be taken of the subscriber before issuing a SIM cards. Also another system needs to set up where these records can be kept and use when needed.
Physical verification of the subscriber couldn't make much as there is a big competition among mobile companies as well as retailers and they want to sell as much SIM cards as they can. Even police have complaint many times about miss to take the documents by the retailers despite strict rules and immediate action on this offence.
Sometimes there are cases where distributors sell SIM cards in bulk to terrorist or wrong people which are a big threat for the nation.
Selling Pre activation SIM attracts a penalty of Rs. 50000 as well as immediate disconnection of mobile service.
Home Ministry should take big steps like increasing the penalty as well as imprisonment provision on selling SIM cards on forged documents.
Aadhar card can play a big role as biometric features are already added on it. So one can verify the features with Aadhar card but Government as well as mobile service providers need to set up a big infrastructure for this because India is a big cellular market and there is always a demand of newSIM numbers in urban to rural to remote areas.

[www.keralites.net] Court allows yoga in US schools

 

Court allows yoga in US schools


 

• Court has allowed yoga in schools as part of health and exercise curriculum

• Court rejects claim that teaching yoga violates state law

• Yoga is exercise, not spiritual dogma

SAN DIEGO, California - A US court has allowed teaching yoga in schools as part of health and exercise curriculum, rejecting a claim by parents that the ancient Indian practice is any religious indoctrination.

Judge John Meyer's ruling in a San Diego court means that the Encinitas Union School District can continue to teach yoga to its students because it has developed its own version of yoga that was not religious but distinct and separate from Ashtana yoga.

"A reasonable student would not objectively perceive that Encinitas School District yoga does advance or promote religion," said the judge.

School district officials were pleased by the ruling but the lawyer for the parents said they will probably appeal.

The teaching of yoga in the school was challenged by Dean Broyles, president and attorney for the Escondido-based National Center for Law and Policy. He had filed a lawsuit on behalf of a couple with two children in the school system.

Broyles had wanted the court to have the programme cancelled because it violated state law prohibiting the teaching of religion in public schools.

Broyles said having yoga in the schools "represents a serious breach of the public trust".
