Restricted entry: What doesn't make national headlines, but could, makes it here

The Trinity at work
The Cola giants have long ceased fighting, the famous Cola wars in India — preparations for which used to start once from January every year — is now a thing of the past. In the corridors of power, many claim its a trinity now at work, highlighting how healthy fruit juices, water and zero sugar drinks are things to look for, not the Colas.

Else, it would be back to licence raj, Jaitley impressed upon the cabinet, keeping in mind a major factor — bulk of those coming for the government's special project are from the Silicon Valley and New Delhi, warned Jaitley, should not send a wrong message to the techies. After all, they are the ones who would rule the new world, Jaitley stressed.


Last Word
WEfforts to change the name of the iconic Eden Gardens have fallen flat, a court in Kolkata has ruled against it. There goes one big, ambitious project of the new president of the state cricket association, Saurav Ganguly.
