What a wonder,now,amidst a full bloom Mango season while EL Nino converts every veg item as dear as Gold,you might not taste Mango as it is also poison as media reports.

This summer, beware of the mangoes that you have been so eagerly waiting for at your nearest market place. Your favourite summer fruit may be a store house of harmful chemicals in the garb of a bright yellow colour!India Today reports.

Mangoes that are flooding markets across India may contain harmful artificial ripening agents like calcium carbide.

Popular among mango producers as 'masala', calcium carbide is a toxic chemical commonly used in gas welding. But traders across the country use it for artificially ripening fruits as it is cheap and easily available.

Considered to be carcinogenic, the use of calcium carbide has been banned by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India.

"According to our Food Safety and Standards Prohibition Regulation, artificial ripening of mango or any fruit by calcium carbide is strictly prohibited. Calcium carbide has a very bad effect on our nervous system,'" explains former FSSAI director Pradip Chakraborty.

Thus,Reliance Jio to brings Rs 4,000 4G smartphone by December, user bills to be under Rs 500 per month!

Reliance Jio Infocomm, which will commercially launch 4G services by December, has the largest footprint of liberalised spectrum in the country, acquired at a cost of Rs 34,000 crore. Speaking at annual shareholders meeting of Reliance Industries (RIL), Ambani said ensuring availability of affordable 4G smartphones has been one of the topmost priorities for Jio.

"The combination of Jio's strong initiatives and a supportive global environment, gives me the confidence that we will see 4G LTE smartphones in India at prices below Rs 4,000 by December of this year," Ambani said. Jio plans to offer telecom, high speed data, digital commerce, media and payment services for about Rs 300 to Rs 500 per month.

"In our digital business, our plan is to provide the same power of computing, communication and information to every individual, whether in towns or rural areas, that the US President had ten to fifteen years ago. All this at about Rs 300 to Rs 500 per month," the Chairman of RIL said.

He said Jio is now present in all of the 29 states with a direct physical presence in nearly 18,000 cities and towns whereas wireless footprint covers over one lakh villages. "We are expanding this footprint to cover nearly 80 per cent of India's population by the end of this year. Our roadmap is to have 100 per cent national coverage within the next three years," he said.

Ambani said Jio is well-positioned to emerge as a global tier-1 telecom operator but it is much more than just telecom services. "We followed an integrated business strategy from the very beginning, and today, Jio is capable of offering a unique combination of telecom, high speed data, digital commerce, media and payment services," he added.

The firm in April launched its first mobile application, 'Jio Chat' that integrates chat, voice, video calling, conferencing, file sharing, photo sharing among others. "In just the first few weeks of operations, Jio Chat now has a million active users, without any paid promotions or over paid advertisements whatsoever," Ambani said.

Apart from that, the company plans to unveil many more applications in coming weeks like switch-and-walk, which allows customers to copy everything from their old phone to a new phone, 'Jio Drive' which brings cloud capabilities to smartphone, 'Jio Play' that will allow users to watch TV channels on their handsets, 'Jio Beats' which is a music app, and 'Jio Mags' and 'Jio News' among others.

Ambani said, this year, acquisition of Network 18 was completed. "Network 18 has 17 news channels, 14 entertainment channels, in 8 languages, and a strong set of Internet businesses that will be well positioned to transition to the Jio platform," he said. By 2017-18, it will be the most integrated TV mobile set of content in India, he said. The RIL Chairman said Jio has deployed a network of nearly 250,000 route kilometres of fibre optics and over the next 3 years, it will more than double than this by deploying fibre optics in the last mile.

He said by April next year, Jio would have connected over 1 million homes via fibre optics with a capability of scaling up in the top 50 cities of India. "Jio is the only operator in the world providing next generation digital services over an end-to-end all-IP network," he added. Ambani said that Jio is also working on its digital money and digital payment business. "Jio Money will play a crucial role in digitisation of payments in India by offering a platform for ubiquitous, affordable and secure digital payments," he said. The company has partnered with State Bank of India, to apply for the Payment Bank licence.

"The Payment Bank, if approved, will complement our initiatives on the digital payments business and also enable distribution of financial services by leveraging on retail and other Jio business in the most accessible, simple and affordable manner with specific focus on the financially excluded," Ambani said.

Reliance set to kick off pricing war

Promises 4G smartphones for less than Rs 4,000 and voice & data services at Rs 300-500 a month; RIL to invest Rs 1 lakh cr in digital services in 12-18 months

Business Standard reports:Analysts were concerned the investment in telecom was going to be an expensive gamble for the company as it was not easy to penetrate the cream (top 30 per cent of customers, who account for an estimated 70 per cent of the industry's revenue). But Ambani said he was confident that Jio would play a significant role in lifting India from its current 142nd rank in internet penetration and bringing it among the top 10 nations of the world. The crowd cheered these announcements, while Ambani's wife, Nita, applauded from the stage.

Mukesh Ambani is set to launch his much-delayed telecom business under the brand name Reliance Jio by December. In what could cause some anxiety to Jio's competitors, the Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) chairman & managing director said the price of the 4G smartphones could be less than Rs 4,000, and voice and data services could be offered for as low as Rs 300-500 a month.

Jio was well positioned to become a global Tier-I telecom operator, Ambani said at RIL's 41st annual general meeting in Mumbai on Friday, describing it as "one of the largest transformational greenfield (new) digital initiatives anywhere in the world."

All of this would be accompanied by a suite of digital music, payments, news and cloud storage services, including access to high-definition television and Bollywood movies.
