The Pune Municipal Corporation has up the ante to promote the one-child norm among the masses. In a rational and commendable move, the civic body approved two more increments for those civic employees who have adopted family planning methods after the birth of their first child.
“The PMC in an effort to promote the one-child policy approved the proposal unanimously on Tuesday. However, the civic body is yet to submit any financial plan for the policy. We hope that the policy will be accepted by the people and will help to bring down the rate of population growth in the country,” said the PMC standing committee chairman Arvind Shinde in a press conference.
“It is a great move on part of the civic authorities and one can only hope that the policy gets implemented properly. Reports suggest that population of India will overtake that of China’s by the year 2025. It is an alarming development, and it is high-time that the government authorities pull up their socks and go all gun blazing against population explosion,” said Kajal Mukherjee, a Pune-based consellor.

Finaly I found Hum do, hamara ek Another reason moving house in Germany could be expensive is that getting free cardboard boxes is virtually impossible. One cannot go to a local supermarket or newsagent to ask for discarded boxes. My way through Germany is being recycled a cardboard box that once held cans of dog food or washing powder is invariably coming to some recycling plant before one has an opportunity to ask. Most German removal firms offer therefore green, recyclable boxes either for sale or hire in a high price.P.S. here http://www.toplevel-traduceri.ro is also something like this

having stumbled onto the India siocetn of your blog & having read your experiences in India, I won’t say that you give a bad image of India but I’d agree to that somewhat. What you experienced is no different than what I’d experience if I go to some other country having different culture, way of life than what I’m used to. So that doesn’t mean that there’s a problem with that place but there’s a problem with me adjusting to that change of environment. There are two sides of a coin & of a country/culture. I’d say that you experienced the less brighter side in New Delhi. Its the heart of India, the capital city, so you can’t say that its worse compared to Pune. It has got a much brighter side too which I think you missed out on b’coz there was no-one to guide you around. Still, if you come again to New Delhi, I’d be glad to show you around on what I think you missed out, which makes your experience of New Delhi incomplete.
