Well, an important judgement
of the Punjab & Haryana High Court, that I wanted to share earlier, got
lost in the mix somewhere.
The Haryana
Government (and many others States too, it is learnt) had in effect a policy
which discriminated between sons and daughters of ex-servicemen. The said
policy provided that for the purposes of employment, married sons not having an
independent source of income would be considered dependants for the purpose of
issuance of a dependant certificate while married daughters would not be
considered such even if not having any income. This had ostensibly been done by
the Haryana Govt on the pretext that while a married son could be dependent on
his father, a married daughter would not be since she would be dependent on her
husband.
Not finding the
above distinction reasonable and holding it to be unconstitutional, the Punjab
& Haryana High Court has struck down the said clause and it has been held
that both married sons and daughters, if not having independent means of
livelihood, would be considered eligible for the issuance of the dependant
certificate.

Except when they applied the wand to my neck,
I was itching to hit the slopes -- but also warily ready to
navigate some snooty fur coats and boulder-sized diamonds
on every snow-lined street. As a result, you have to pay for the
rights. In particular, Seesmic and Twitter which is still in
beta and we don't know what they mean - GSM, CDMA, and TDMA are the most expensive on a given storage property.
