Bangalore News Communal Riots and Violence

News from Bangalore - Communal Riots and Violence

In the midst of all the results and admission news I thought of sharing this information from all of you and gather your opinion on the same.

There is some news from Bangalore that some incident took place in the morning and that has caused some disturbances in Bangalore city. This incident is related to religion so I am sure the issue and city will be very sensitive.

Earlier I though that this is some kind of a rumor but later on most of the TV channels and news sources started reporting - Udaya TV, TV9 Kannada, Times, CNN IBN, Aaj Tak and NDTV are covering this news.

There is some 144 section implemented in parts of Bangalore - JC Nagar area. I hope these will not lead into big Riots and the police and administration will do their best to return the city to normalcy.

Bangalore is the IT hub in India and mostly it has been free from Communal riots.

Osama bin Laden is dying?

Osama bin Laden is on his death bed! If the US Central Intelligence Agency is to be believed, the notorious international terrorist is suffering from terminal kidney disease.

A report released recently by the agency indicates at the possibility of the Osama surviving for not more six to nine months.

4th of July, 2008

Today is July 4th, the day the USA celebrates Independence Day and the concept of socio-political freedom. Today’s post contains a prayer and the Declaration of Independence. My own political views about justice and freedom have appeared here and there on this blog, and your own views may differ from mine, but on this day I hope we can join hands and celebrate the value of socio-political freedom and commit ourselves to working for such freedom for all. And pray for peace in the world. (FYI: No gun comments today, please.)

A Prayer for our Country from the BCP:

Almighty God, who has given us this good land for our heritage: We humbly beseech you that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of your favor and glad to do your will. Bless our land with honorable industry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion; from pride and arrogance, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion us into one united people. Endue with the spirit of wisdom those to whom in your Name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that, through obedience to your law, we may show forth your praise among the nations of the earth. In the time of prosperity, fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in you to fail; all which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Declaration of Independence

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation upon such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are long accustomed. But [our grievances are neither light nor transient, and a list of them follows….]

We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good people of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do.

And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

“Love Story 2050″ Movie Review

Harman Baweja finally makes his much-awaited debut in a lavish 50 - 55 crore movie titled Love Story 2050! Directed by Harry Baweja, his father, of Qayamat fame (the Ajay Devgan movie that released in 2003). Since Qayamat, Harry has been busy working on Love Story 2050, his son’s mega debut. Priyanka Chopra is Harman’s co-star in the movie. Expectations are high, mostly due to the high-on-special-effects trailers and good promotion. Does it click?

Love Story 2050 starts off as a simple love story that revolves around two characters Karan (Harman Baweja) and Sana (Priyanka Chopra). Karan is a happy-go-lucky spirited boy who goes off the rules and Sana is a shy and petite young girl who goes by the rules. What happens when opposites meet? They are attracted, love blossoms between the two. All comes to a stand still when Sana dies in a accident!

In search of his love, Karan goes into the future, right into the year 2050 with the help of his scientist uncle Dr Ya (Boman Irani) who has spent more than 15 years of his life inventing the time machine. 2050 is spectacular, flying cars, sky-high multi storey buildings, robots et al. Karan finds Zeisha (Priyanka Chopra), now a superstar, a pop singer.

Will Karan and Sana get back again? Will the future bring them together?

Love Story 2050 Review

Harry Baweja has undoubtedly put in a lot of effort and hard work into Love Story 2050, whether its the costumes, settings, special effects and to a certain extent even robots. But unfortunately, the script is way below average. The story is nonsensical, the love story lacks soul, you dont feel for any single character in the movie. Harry Baweja as a story teller fails big time.

The first half is never ending, but towards the end it gets slightly interesting, you hope for a better second half. Imagining life 42 years from now is exciting, but what unfolds on the screen in the second half is probably equilvalent to a third degree torture. It painfully drags, the special effects although great, outshines the love story, you no more care for any of the characters. The robots and the special effects too starts to get monotonous towards the end. 30 mins into the second half, you desperately await the end for the credits to roll.. Yes, its that bad!

The runtime is 3 hours plus, most of the portions can be chopped off easily. For example the character of the masked villian, who appears in the latter parts of the second half, was absolutely unnecessary. He also seems to be a last minute inspiration of Naseeruddin Shah’s character in Krrish.

Seriously, its very hard to sit through this movie. The packed house for the preview show, was almost half empty, well before the credits rolled!

Dialogues are irritating.. Harman’s favorite dialogue in the movie is ‘I dont need luck, because i have love’ He repeats it so many times that, you feel an urgent need to pull every hair out of your head! Music is average, except for the ‘Milo Na Milo’ track, nothing is even worth a mention.

Performances are no better! Harman Baweja has been compared to Hrithik Roshan, no less! Well, he is good looking, a excellent dancer, has got a good screen presence.. But in the acting department, he has a long long way to go. His dialogue delivery outright sucks! Priyanka Chopra disappoints in a meaty role, with great scope for histrionics. Boman Irani is funny at times. Archana Puran Singh is good.

In short, Love Story 2050 is yet another major disappointment of 2008. A utter waste of Rs 50 crores plus spent on this never ending tale. The opening at the box-office is expected to be good, but the negative word-of-mouth would affect Harman’s debut. The collections should start dropping heavily from Monday. This futuristic tale has absolutely no future!

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na Movie Review

The common question comes to mind when aamir khan is producing a film will be, how the movie is going to be? Coming to jaane tu ya jaane na, will it live up to the expectations?

Story:

While Jaane Tu is Imran’s debut vehicle, it is really Genelia who steals the show. The actress is a real livewire on screen and conveys those annoying feelings of jealousy, confusion, irritability and fake happiness without any problem.

Within the gang, who sport very Bombay nicknames such as Rats (Jai), Meow (Aditi), Bombs (Sandhya), Jiggy (Jignesh), the guys fare much better than the girls. Jiggy delights as the Gujju while Rotlu and Bombs together are smashing as the couple who discover each other as soul mates when left solo by their crushes, Jai and Aditi.

Supporting cast members like Ratna Pathak Shah as Jai’s mum, Paresh Rawal as the police inspector, Naseeruddin Shah, as Jai’s dead Rajput father who speaks from his portrait hold, fort magnificently.

Even the sub-plot of Jai’s rite of passage as a true male Rathore from Ranjhore family by fulfilling three conditions - beating up a person, spending time in jail and riding a horse - is largely saved and made palatable by way of the safe casting of the Shahs and Arbaaz and Sohail Khan, who appear as Rathore boys in the guise of dancing cowboys.

On a whole jaane tu ya jaane na is a lovely cute movie honestly.
Its not a story which never heard or seen but then just like aamir said, It does revive good old college days and bring us a nice love story..
Viewers Review :

The film itself is a simple, young, urban, collegiate romantic comedy. And commentary on such movies should really boil down to, if it entertains you or not. This one does. Whether it works or not. For the most part, this does. There remains very little point intellectualising any further.

The premise is vintage stuff: basically whether the hero and heroine can merely be platonic friends. Or as they say in old Bollywood, Ladka aur ladki kabhi dost nahin ho sakte. You can see how the film is a wonderful attempt to subvert that age-old formula.

While this is about friends from, say Dil Chahta Hai or Kuch Kuch Hota Hai; everyone is not obnoxiously rich here. They don’t drive the fastest cars, or vacation in Holland or Switzerland.

This is still a mainstream youthful film. But everyone doesn’t bedazzle you with their beauty. They’re all attractive in their own ways, and they seem ‘people like us’.

Each friend represents a type. And yet, no one stoops down to stereotypes. They’re all characters with believable shades of grey.

There is the middle-class hero, Imraan, a non-violent son from what was once a violent royal family. He has a fun group of buddies from college.

One of them is the best-friend, that’s the spunky Genelia. They both share intense but casual chemistry.

Everyone including the parents assume them to be a couple. But their actual love for each other is revealed when the boy finds himself a girlfriend. And the girl is ready to settle down with her fiance. You know how all this will all end.

What keeps you glued then is the detailing in the writing: quirky sub-plots, witty lines and references, breezy situations and a general sense of joy.

Somewhere in the latter half of the film, what you miss though are certain magical moments that can lift all this material into another cinematic level altogether.

This is probably why when everything is brilliantly set up; you may come out of the interval with an ecstatic grin. You may not be that excited when the movie is over.

But you’re still in a good mood, and smiling alright. That’s a huge achievement for a Hindi film these days. I’d say, do check this one out.

Performances:
Coming to acting, every character has performed well enough.
Debutant Imran looks cool and acting is admirable.
I am not too much in favour of genelia but still she was good in the movie…
It’s a love story we all have seen earlier as well. But Abbas Tyrewala made it in such a way that movie looks fresh and touching.

Music: was as expected and well picturized. Thanks to Rehman. Imran would surely notch up a hit with this debut. The movie will surely have a decent opening.

Overall a sweet movie..
PS: The theatrical promo of rock on has shown arjun rampal starring with farhan akthar for the first time.

Union Bank of India

The Union Bank of India (UBI), one of the top public sector banks in India, has worked out ambitious plans to position itself as a major global player in the coming years, according to its Chairman and Managing Director M V Nair.

"We have already opened our representative offices in Shanghai and Abu Dhabi last year. We have applied for permission to open offices in ten more locations abroad, including in areas like Sydney and Canada," the Chairman told Khaleej Times here.

"We are also planning to diversify our operations, by floating subsidiaries. We have already launched a joint venture with Daichi Insurance of Japan to enter into the insurance sector. We are also working out an arrangement with a leading Belgium-based asset management firm to launch joint venture in the mutual funds sector," he said.

According to him UBI has launched several schemes to address the banking requirements of the Non-Resident Indians (NRI). "The remittance from the NRIs will now be transferred online to the accounts of the beneficiaries. We've introduced an SMS alert system to give feed backs to the NRIs on the delivery of their remittance to the beneficiaries back home in India. The beneficiaries will also get an SMS alert as soon as the remittances are transferred into their accounts."

"The beneficiaries can withdraw money from any of the 33,000-odd ATMs of different banks in India, and we don't charge them for using the ATM of another bank," M V Nair said.

The home loan applications from the NRIs will be processed within 48 hours, and the final sanction will be accorded within five days after submitting the documents. The education loan procedures for NRIs have also been simplified by the UBI. A ready kit comprising of ATM cards, pin number, log in password, multi-city check books will be given to the NRIs who are starting account with the UBI, the Chairman said.

Replying to questions he said all the 2500-odd branches of the bank had been computerised and had been brought under the Core Banking Solution system. "We have applied to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for permission to start 400 branches this year."

He said despite inflation Indian economy was likely to achieve substantial growth rate this year also. "Of course there will be some impact of inflation on the growth rate, and it may not reach nine per cent as was expected in the beginning. I expect the growth rate to be around 7.5 per cent to eight per cent this year, and still it will be a good rate compared to many other countries."

"The current inflation in India is not caused by internal factors but was driven by external factors like surging oil price. But the fundamentals of Indian economy are strong."

RUSSIA VS SPAIN LIVE ONLINE

Team News

Russia have had some minor injury worries ahead of today’s match with Spain in Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, Ivan Saenko and Alexander Anyukov but all three took part in training this week albeit light training so they are expected to start today for Russia.

Spain have no injury worries ahead of the Euro 2008 Semi Final with Russia but Luis Aragones will have the “strain” of having to choose who to play and who not to play from the vast collection of stars he has at his disposal. Will he play Cesc Fabregas or Xavi in the middle of the park? These are the kind of questions he will be asking himself.

Russia Vs Spain - Who will win?

Well Russia have turned into a completely different team with the return of Andrei Arshavin. The Russian playmaker has pulled all the strings since his return from suspension and has really put Russia in with a glorious chance of progressing from the Euro 2008 Semi Final and into the final. Russia will feel they can beat anyone after the 3-1 victory over Holland and quite rightly so. Spain are a great side but Russia can definitely win this one.

Spain will be the favourites to beat Russia today and with their 100% record so far you can’t really argue with that. When you also add the fact that Spain have already beaten Russia at Euro 2008 this year (4-1) then you would feel confident of winning a few quid if you have Spain down for a win at the bookies.

So who will win? I would really like to see Spain reach the final as it has been a long time coming for the Spaniards in an International tournament but i can’t help but think it is going to be another case of “so close but not close enough” for Spain. The Russians have found a new gear they never knew they had and i think they are going to pinch this one. I am going for Russia 2 - Spain 2 with Russia winning in extra time.

The Day of the Triffids

Just wondering what the heck this triffids doing in the Google Trends... So I googled it and found out that this is just a book. Triffids are (fictional) plants capable of animal-like behaviour: they feed on rotting meat, are able to uproot themselves and move about on their three "legs", possess a deadly whip-like poisonous sting, and appear to communicate with each other. The narrator and protagonist is Bill Masen, who has made his living working with Triffids. Being an expert on the subject, he speculates that they were deliberately bioengineered in the Soviet Union, and that Triffid seeds were spread world-wide when an attempt was made to smuggle them out of Russia; the escaping plane is presumed to have been shot down, literally scattering the seeds to the winds. Whatever their origin, when Triffids began sprouting all over the world, their extracts proved to be radically superior to existing vegetable and animal oils. The result was a world-wide slew of Triffid farms, where the penned plants' stings were left intact as docking impaired the quality of their oil. The narrative begins with Masen in hospital, his eyes bandaged after having been stung by a Triffid at one of the farms. He discovers that while he has been recovering, the light from an unusual meteor shower has rendered most people on Earth blind (Bill later muses that the shower may have been the misfiring of a space-based weapon system, though, as with the Triffids' origins, the truth is never revealed). After wandering aimlessly through London, watching civilization collapsing around him, Masen rescues a sighted woman who is being used as an unwilling pair of eyes by a blinded man. She is novelist Josella Playton, whose work has earned her a notorious and mostly undeserved reputation. She and Masen quickly fall in love.

Germany Vs Austria Preview

Germany had worries about the fitness of in-form striker Lukas Podolski and right-back Phillip Lahm ahead of their crucial Euro 2008 clash with Austria. But, both Podolski and Lahm have been passed fit to start the game against Austria which will be a huge boost for Germany however left-back Marcell Jansen is out with a shoulder injury and Bastian Schweinsteiger is unavailable after being red-carded in the previous game against Croatia.

Austria MUST win against Germany if they are to have any chance of progressing to the quarter finals but they will have to do it without centre-back Sebastian Proedl who is suspended. Martin Hiden could be in line to replace Proedl for Austria which will result in him reaching a new milestone in his Austria career with his 50th cap for his country. The odds are firmly stacked against Austria beating Germany but this isn't the first time Austria have been in this sort of situation. In the 1978 World Cup Austria knocked Germany out at this very same however the Germans only need a draw to go through.

These two great rivals have met each other on 34 different occasions with Germany winning 20 out of 34 and Austria winning 8 out of 34. The last time Austria Vs Germany took place was only in February of this year. Germany beat Austria 3-0 on that occasion.

Germany Vs Austria - LoveFooty.net Prediction

When it is Germany Vs Austria it is always a rather heated affair and i don't expect this game to be any different. The atmosphere will be electric and the emotions will be running wild so we are in for a great game. In these types of games you never really know what's going to happen, the impossible suddenly becomes possible and anything can happen. After Turkey's comeback against Czech Republic last night Austria will believe that they too are capable of defying the odds. However, they will have to find a way of controlling the middle of the park and Ballack in particular if they are to stand a chance as he is a well known match winner in the big games. I think Germany's overwhelming quality will come through in the end but i don't see a walkover in this match. Austria have shown great heart so far at Euro 2008 and they will continue to do so by giving even more against Germany. LoveFooty.net prediction... Austria 1 - Germany 2.

12 killed, 23 injured in Sri Lanka suicide blast

At least 12 police personnel, including three women constables, were killed and 23 others injured when a suspected LTTE suicide bomber blew himself up outside a police office in a northern Sri Lankan town.


At least 12 police personnel were killed and 23 others injured when a motorcycle borne Tamil Tiger rebel blew himself up opposite the office of the senior superintendent of police (SSP) in Vavuniya town in northern Sri Lanka on Monday, the defence ministry said in a statement.

Three women constables were among the 12 killed in the explosion that occurred around 7.10 a.m., the ministry said.

It added that 23 people, including 19 police personnel and four civilians, were injured and had been hospitalised.

"A school girl was among those injured," the statement said.

The suicide blast has taken place at a time when the government has opened many fronts in the northern Vavuniya and northwestern Mannar districts to help troops advance into the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) held Wanni area.

Padmapriya found dead in Delhi flat

Four days after she disappeared from Udupi district, BJP MLA Raghupathi Bhats wife Padmapriya was on Sunday found dead in an apartment in Delhi.

Her body was found hanging from the ceiling fan hook in the Dwarka apartment when a team of police from Karnataka and Delhi broke open the door at around 6:15 pm.

Early indications from the police were that it could be case of suicide. This, however, has hardly helped unravel the mystery. No suicide note has been found.

Padmapriya’s body was taken to the capital’s Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital from where it was later shifted to Safdarjang Hospital. The post-mortem will be conducted on Monday morning.

Karnataka Home Minister V S Acharya, who also hails from Udupi, had on Saturday night spoke of giving “good news” in the missing case.

‘Temporary depression’
Acharya, who reached the national capital on Sunday evening to attend an official meeting, told Deccan Herald that Padmapriya had committed suicide due to “temporary depression”.

He claimed: “Our police had established that she was in Delhi three days ago. We wanted to protect her, especially from the media, and take her back to Udupi. Hence we did not disclose it. By 10:30 am on Sunday, our police were here. Our police have handled the case well.”

Informed sources said Padmapriya’s presence in Delhi was disclosed to the Udupi police by Atul Kumar, a friend of Bhat and Padmapriya, on Saturday. Atul accompanied the Karnataka police team, led by Bangalore ACP Jeethendra, that arrived in Delhi. The Karnataka police came to the apartment at around 2:30 pm. They made Atul knock on the door and call her. When there was no reply, they returned with the Dwarka police in the evening and broke open the door in the presence of Raghupathi Bhat and Padmapriya’s brother, Rajshekar who also had reached the national capital.

Rajshekar blamed Atul for the fate that befell his sister. According to a police version, Atul had taken Padmapriya to Puttur and then the duo travelled to Goa from where they are believed to have taken a flight to Delhi.
Circumstantial evidence also suggested that Atul had arranged for her the three-bedroom, fourth floor flat (Flat No. 20) of the eight-storey Shama Apartments, Plot 32, Sector 10 in Dwarka sub-city of the national capital.

In Delhi for six days?
Though it was said that Padmapriya went missing on Wednesday last, the Delhi police, in a statement late on Sunday evening, said she had arrived in the national capital at least six days ago. It appeared that she had planned to stay put in the national capital and had no desire to return home in Udupi. On June 12, she bought a car: Wagon R (Registration No. DL- 8CD 6949). The car was purchased from Manjit Motors in the name of one Prem and delivered at the apartment complex at 12:30 pm on that day. She even appeared to have acquired a mobile phone connection as the service providers had come to the apartment for the mandatory verification procedure.

Late on June 12 evening, she and presumably Atul had left in the car to the Delhi domestic airport. Atul appears to have left that evening for Bangalore.

Padmapriya had a couple of male visitors on Saturday. She was seen leaving her new flat in the evening to buy some utensils and vegetables. She was accompanied by an unidentified man. The owner of the semi-furnished flat is one Lakhwinder Singh. Padmapriya was said to have signed an agreement to take the house on rent, a copy of which was deposited with the apartment association.

Planned for release sometime in the middle of the year, `Dasavatharam` is a class in itself. For it features Kamal in ten different roles. K S Ravikumar is directing this mega budget movie for Oscar Ravichandran. Himesh Reshammiya from Bollywood is scoring the music. This is his debut in Kollywood. Kamal, always known in the industry for trying out something new, is handling ten different roles in this movie. It looks like he is trying to break the record of Sivaji Ganesan`s nine roles in `Navaratri`. The movie is being shot in different locations in India , Malaysia and the US . When the hero does something, should not the heroine follow? Kamal`s ten roles are countered by Asin`s dual role in the movie. This is the first time in her career Asin is playing dual role. Mallika Sherawat dons an altogether different cap in this movie. She appears as a CIA agent while Jayapradha, the well-known character artiste, plays another important role in the movie.

RANBAXY LABS – INDIAN MNC TO BECOME A JAPANESE COMPANY

When two people fight, it is the third person that gets the advantage. That is precisely what has happened in Ranbaxy Labs, one of India’s most respected pharma companies. The breaking news today is that the promoters of Ranbaxy have sold their stake to a Japanese company – Daiichi Sankyo. Yes, the two brothers – Malvinder Singh and Shivinder Singh, who have a 34.8% stake in Ranbaxy Labs have formally agreed to sell their entire stake to Japanese major Daiichi Sankyo.

This sell of stake means a complete exit of the promoters of the company. Late Bhai Mohan Singh who made Ranbaxy into what it is today was one of the most respected industrialists in India. Having founded Ranbaxy single handedly into the first Indian MNC, it is unfortunate that today, the same grandsons of this patriarch are exiting from the company. The ongoing family feud is stated to be reason.

The stake sell, expected at over 25-30% premium over today’s last traded price, makes perfect sense. Once could argue that the price is too high but that is precisely the way in which the cookie crumbles. If it is a foreign company taking over a very well reputed and established company, then a premium of 25-30% is routine. The same had been the case when Holcim had taken over the stake of ACC and Gujarat Ambuja.

The Japanese major will also make a mandatory open offer, as per the Indian laws, to buy an additional 20% stake in the company as also subscribing to 4.63 crore shares and 2.38 crore warrants at Rs.737 per share. At the end of this all, Daiichi Sankyo plans to have a controlling stake of above 51% stake in the Indian company.

The Board of Ranbaxy had decided to issue 462,58,063 equity shares of Rs.5 each at a premium of Rs.732 per share as also 238,34,333 warrants to be convertible at Rs.737 per share to Daiichi. This will increase the paid up equity of Ranbaxy from Rs.186.62 crore to Rs.221.67 crore, post warrant conversion. If Daiichi is able to have a 20% stake in the open offer (which is most likely) their stake would go up to 65%.

Post issue of equity by Ranbaxy to Daiichi, an open offer for about 8.88 crore shall be made by Daiichi for Ranbaxy shares at Rs.737 per share. Presently, about 18% is held by FIIs while, about 20% is held by Insurance companies and about 27% is held by the public, including mutual funds. It is expected that everyone would participate in the open offer as share price of Rs.737 is perceived to be quite attractive for any existing shareholder to get an exit route from the stock and would also, at the same time, give good arbitrage play.

Presently, Ranbaxy is holding a tad below 15% in Orchid Chemicals, Jupiter Bio and Krebs Bio while 45% in Zenotech Laboratories. Due to indirect acquisition of stake in Zenotech by Daiichi, even Zenotech would see open offer coming in the stock at a price to be determined under applicable SEBI guidelines.

As mentioned earlier, the reason for the exit, in all probability is the ongoing family feud. It all began in 1990, when Bhai Mohan Singh apportioned assets in 1990. His eldest son – Parvinder Singh got Ranbaxy, middle son Manjit got Montari Industries and youngest son, who was the apple of his eye, got Max India. In 1993, Bhai Mohan Singh was ousted in a bitter boardroom battle by Parvinder, who later threw out his father from the Board after disagreements over company management grew. Parvinder expired in 1999 and his successor, D.S.Brar took the company to greater heights.

When Bhai Mohan Singh died, he bequeathed most of his wealth to Analjit who was also made the sole legal heir to carry out all court battles. Manjit was given a gift of Rs.14 crore while grandchildren – Malvinder and Shivinder, who are now the promoters of Ranbaxy, were given Rs.5 lakhs each. So now, for the past few years, a bitter legal battle is raging between Manjit, Malvinder and Shivinder on one side and Analjit on the other side. The bone of contention is the ownership over Ranbaxy and assets like the Aurangzeb Road home where Bhai Mohan Singh had resided. Though an out-of-court settlement has been planned for some time now, it has just not happened.

And selling their stake was probably the best way out is what the grandsons of Bhai Mohan Singh, would have thought. This ends their continuous stress but shows how the new generation of today, after having got things on a platter, just does not have enough respect for anything – neither for the reputation of Bhai Mohan Singh nor for effort that has gone over decades for making Ranbaxy what it is today. The first Indian MNC would now become a Japanese company.

After the stake sale, it is expected that the bothers will also distribute the other group companies within themselves. It is widely talked that Fortis Healthcare would come under Malvinder Singh and Religare Enterprises would come under Shivinder.

All eyes would also now turn towards Cipla where the current Chairman and Managing Director, Dr.Hamid had also stated some time ago that he would soon step down. Would that mean a handing over of the reins to the chosen heir or stake sale?
