Now this is getting pretty regular!! In yet another incident of its kind, there has been another
Mahanagar Gas pipe leak near Chandivali Studios in Andheri(East). And even this time, the leaked gas caught fire. Four fire engines battled to bring the fire, which gutted a canteen, under control.

This place is less than a minute away from my office. I went and saw the fire in my lunch break. It was blazing at that time and three fire engines were already there at that time.

Reason to be proud or reason to be embarassed, for Indians?

Sun sued for ‘favouring’ Indian workers

Sun Microsystems, the Silicon Valley computer giant, was hit with a lawsuit on Monday alleging that the firm laid off thousands of US high-tech workers in order to replace them with younger, lower-paid engineers from India.

As evidence, the lawsuit cites statements made this year by Khosla on a CBS program on IIT where he was quoted as saying that at Sun, people from India ‘are favored over almost anybody else.’

The lawsuit, for which class-action is being sought, was brought by Walter Kruz, a 52-year-old, a former software engineer manager at the company. Kruz claims discrimination based on race, national origin and age. He seeks compensation for lost wages, attorneys’ fees and unspecified punitive damages.

Hmmmmm!!
