10. The CISF is going to try to trick its own men to see how good
they are!

reuters
The CISF has put together a
decoy team that will attempt to enter and fly out of India with fake documents.
Playing as regular passengers, this crack team will hit airports across India.
This is because security arrangements at Delhi airport are low, despite
specific alerts from the Intelligence Bureau.
What's really scary is that
they just succeeded. “Recently, the decoy team managed to get entry with a fake
e-ticket, exposing loopholes in the security of Delhi airport ahead of Obama’s
visit. The team members didn’t stop there and tried to fly with fake boarding
passes but a CISF official realized that the passes were fake and caught them.”

Daily Mail.

15 Laws And Rights Every Indian Should Know
There is nothing more
empowering than knowing your country's laws and rights. You never know when you
might need to put them into use. While, most of us are aware of some
basic laws and rights, here are some of them which we might not know
about:
1. If your cylinder blasts you are eligible to get Rs. 40 lakh
cover!
Many of us are uninformed that domestic LPG
consumers are entitled to a cover of Rs. 40 lakh in case of loss of life or
damage to property due to cylinder bursts.
2. Your renter can legally
become the owner of the property you've rented out
Under the
law of adverse possession, a person who can prove possession of your land for
12 years can become the owner of it as well. For facts, one can look up the Limitation Act of 1963. So,
if you are leasing or renting property, be careful!
3. Punishment for
receiving gifts? Yes, they can be bribes.
Next time
you receive a gift from a coworker, beware! You can be penalized for it.
The law is a smart move by the government to avoid taking bribery. Know
more about The Foreign
Contribution Regulation Act 2010' here.
4. Only female officers
can take women to the police station
Not only do male officers have no right to escort a woman but she
can refuse to go to the police station between 6 pm to 6 am. In case of a
serious crime, a written permit from the magistrate is required for male
officers to escort her.

5. The tax recovery
officer can arrest and release you
In case
of tax violations, the TRO has the right to arrest you. The tax commissioner
only decides how long can you be in custody, but your release will be decided
by the TRO. This has been mentioned in the Income-tax Act, 1961.
6. No traffic violation
laws for non-motorized vehicles
Though it has been made clear that a golf cart is not allowed on
the road but there aren't any penalties against non-motor vehicles like a
cycles or rickshaws, since they don't fall under the Motor Vehicles Act.
7. Women can lodge
complaints through emails
Guidelines issued by the Delhi Police entitle women to the
privilege of registering a complaint via email or even through post if she
can't go to the police station.
8. Live-in relationships
are legal
Though it
is lowered upon in our country, but as long as both the adults are ready to
stay together, live-in relationships are not illegal. Moreover, live-in
relationships are considered to be 'equal to marriage' if certain conditions
are met few of which are pooling of financial and domestic arrangements,
entrusting the responsibility, sexual relationship, bearing children,
socialization in public and intention, conduct of the parties, etc. This is
done to protect women under the Domestic Violence Act. Also, children born out of
live-in relationships have the right to inherit their parent's property.
9. Political parties can
solicit your vehicle during elections
During the time of elections, a political party can solicit your
car or bike for campaigning purposes after deciding a settlement with you.
Also, parties cannot offer free rides to and fro from poll booths.
10. If you have been fined
once in the day you maybe excused after that
Riding
around without a helmet can land you into trouble, but once you are fined for
it, the chalaanslip can get you
out of being fined for the same till midnight. Yes, but this is not an
encouragement to do so. Be safe while driving.
11. You don't have to pay
the MRP, you can buy for less
MRP is the Maximum Retail Price. As consumers, you have the right
to bargain for a price below that. However, a seller can not go beyond the MRP.

12. If you aren't paid,
file a complaint immediately
The Limitation Act states
that if you aren't paid by someone who is contracted to pay you, you need to
file a complaint within 3 years. After that time period your suit most likely
will be dismissed, so being lazy about this is not an option.
13. 3 months in jail for
PDA! (Public Display of Affection)
PDA within its limits is allowed but any obscene activity is
punishable by law for upto 3 months. Since the word obscene has not been
defined, couples are often harassed by policemen.
14. Head constables have
limited prosecution power
No head
constable can fine you for any offence which presently has a penalty for more
than Rs.100. But violation of more than one rule can result in a challan of higher value. This was issued by
the Delhi Traffic Police and information about the same is available on their Facebook page.
15. A police officer is
always on duty, literally
The 1861 Police Act clearly states that a police officers is
always on duty. If he or she witnesses an act of crime or if an incident is
brought to their knowledge they can't say "I am not on duty" even if
they aren't in uniform. Of course, they are entitled to some rest
because of the the hard work that they put in to their work.

Watch BILL GATES Drinking Water Made From Human Poop In This Ground-breaking Video
We have all heard of astronauts drinking water extracted from poop. But to think of the process as becoming part of society is something we haven’t been able to imagine.
Bill Gates is funding
a project that produces clean drinking water from feces. And to make evident
the purity of the water extracted, Good
Guy Bill Gates drank it himself.
Named Omniprocessor,
the machine is alleged to be capable of producing 86,000 litres of water in a
single day! It has been developed by Janicki Bioenergy, whose founder Peter
Janicki personally journeyed to Africa and India to understand the problem of
waste disposal.
Writing on his blog,
Gates has said that the machine could be a ‘great fit’ in India. If things work
out well, the project could become a blessing for developing countries, solving
the problem of waste disposal and providing clean water and electricity.
This video shows, in
layman terms, the science behind converting waste into drinking water. Watch
Bill Gates drink water that was human poop only five minutes ago.
