FINGER PRINT

FINGER PRINTS An uneducated man will not believe that a person can be identified by his finger print. He will argue that all finger prints are identical . I do not know when this science of reading finger prints developed. Each person has a DNA ; so also a unique finger print . It is belied that at least one person will be there, anywhere in the world , looking exactly like me . I would like to see him. But his FP will be different. Even identical twins will have different FP. When we think of the number of persons born in the world each day, you can imagine the variety of FP during one crore years. How God designed such variety in FP , is a mystery. He must have in his mind, the design for future generations too! Mind blogging , is it not? No two stars will be identical; so also man’s FP

A VISIT

I happened to visit my friend , who had purchased a house in the colony of our Project . My wife and children were inside , happily exchanging news. His two boys ere chatting with me in the veranda . I noticed a heap of books , not yet bound . When I read it , I found that it was my friend’s autobiography. The author was not there. I asked the children:”Why don’t you keep it in order and get it bound? Unless you sell it , what is the use?” They have a cow and do not know how to sell milk. I said:”Write a board ‘MILK FOR SALE’ and fix it on the way to the river . All people going to take bath in the river will see it.” My wife came out and asked:”We are going to the temple, are you coming?” (it was just a dream)

MEGA FRAUD

Pune businessman dupes 20 lakh investors of Rs 2,000 crore, arrested HT Correspondent, Mumbai | Updated: Dec 06, 2015 08:59 IST Share 8 Share Share Share A Pune-based businessman, who floated various companies, was arrested by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai police on Friday night for duping around 20 lakh investors of Rs 2,000 crore. Fifty-six-year-old Balasaheb Bhapkar, managing director and chairman of Sai Prasad Properties Limited, Goa, and Sai Prasad Foods Limited, Pune, collected funds from investors without requisite permissions from the RBI and SEBI, said EOW officials, adding that the companies continued to operate despite both the RBI and SEBI sending them legal notices. The authorities are now on the lookout for at least five others, including two women and Bhapkar’s son, who could be involved in the racket. Bhapkar, meanwhile, was produced before a local court and was remanded in police custody till December 10. The EOW has currently frozen 193 bank accounts in 15 banks that hold Rs74 crore in connection with the case. “The investors were promised returns of 12% to18% via daily/monthly/ yearly schemes. There are numerous sister concern companies to which the funds have been rerouted,” said Dhananjay Kamlakar, joint commissioner of police, EOW, adding the companies already have five criminal cases registered against them in Gwalior, Jaipur and Chhattisgarh, with one case being probed by the CBI. The companies have holdings of 1,600 acres of land, parts of which they gave as collateral returns, after people invested money. Over a period of time, the companies inked agreements in lieu of land beyond their holding capacity, said police officers. The sister concern companies of the two main firms are into petroleum, energy and property development businesses, said officials, adding that the money collected from investors might have been invested in these businesses. I nterestingly, SEBI had launched an enquiry in 2010 against the companies, but l odged a for mal complaint with the Mumbai police only a month ago. After the complaint, a team of 50 EOW personnel was formed and simultaneous raids were conducted at 30 places, including 27 offices and three residential apartments, across Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi and Goa. The teams seized 60 computer hard disks and Rs 60 lakh during the raids.
