Critics always point out that Modi would either be busy with his election campaigns or would be roaming across the world. The Goa congress cadre took the criticism a step ahead by nominating him to the Guinness record for “setting a record of travelling abroad”.

It’s legal to have same sex partner

The supreme court in a crucial judgement has declared that people can live with a partner of same sex. This would dilute section 377 of our constitution which declares such relations as illegal.

However it did not clarify on the issues such as validity of same sex marriage, legal inheritance problems etc. This is said to be major break through for the LGBT community giving them a legal right to live in a relation of their choice.

Whatsapp to highlight forwarded messages

Recently...many innocents were killed on the pretext of child lifters! Fingers were pointed out at Whatsapp for spreading such rumours. Even the Indian government had to step in to ask whatsapp for some restraining measures. Heeding to such pleas... Whatsapp has now installed a feature to check the forwarded messages. From here on, Whatsapp will label such messages as `forwarded’. “This could serve as an important signal for recipients to think twice before forwarding messages because it lets a user know if content they received was written by the person they know or a potential rumour from someone else,” said Whatsapp in its statement. Hope that this would enable people to gather some time to check whether the message was original or fake.
