    If you are wondering why this is so in India, it's a measure to make it difficult for terrorists to get prepaid connections.

    And how is that working then? Has it eliminated terrorism or merely inconvenienced 1.1 billion potential customers? Another example of a government initiative that doesn't work. (Don't even get me started on the UK Govt!).

        They said that to Obama. Eventually he went into pictures, in India.

            And why should the government be concerned about that? (Yeah, yeah, that's sarcasm and I'm with you, not remotely supporting the Indian government. I was surprised to find how easy it is to buy a prepaid connection in the UK - walk in, pay 10 pounds, walk out with working SIM card.)

                Didn't Obama do something similar to gain the Presidency? [It's a joke, see the icon?]
