MUMBAI: US telecom giant AT&amp;T is learnt to have approached public sector Bharat Sanchar Nigam (BSNL) for investing in the Indian behemoth to re-enter the world’s fastest-growing telecom market.

State-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL), India's largest telecommunications company and its third-largest mobile-phone operator, is showing all the signs of going the way of struggling government-run Air India, which has had to crawl cap in hand for a state bailout to survive. 



The signs of sickness are all too obvious, led by bloated payroll costs. BSNL's salaries now account for about 25% of revenue, compared with rival Bharti Airtel's 5%, after rising  ...</description>

NEW DELHI: After smashing the oil officers' strike, the government now appears determined to hang the dog after giving it a bad name — that is, project these officers as the most pampered lot and, therefore, deserving the harshest punishment for striking work.

			<description>HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! WHY SHOULD WE CELEBRATE NEW YEAR



Like in past, the moment of year change has come and most of are exchanging wishes for a prosperous new year. Since past few years a feeling about the futility of this ritual had developed in mind. Last night I was thinking what is so special in a particular moment – when the counter of the year changes form 2008 to 2009?

			<description>A shepherd was herding his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced out of a dust cloud towards him.



The driver, a young man in an Armani suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and YSL tie (Corb), leans out the window and asks the shepherd, &quot;If I tell you exactly how many sheep you have in your flock, will you give me one?&quot; 



The shepherd looks at the man, obviously a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing flock and calmly answers, &quot;Sure. Why  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>debayan</dc:creator>
			<description>An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly that made the world community smile.



A representative from India began: 'Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about a rishi named Kashyapa of Kashmir (Kashyapa, son of Marichi, son of Brahma), after whom Kashmir is named.



When he struck a rock and it brought forth water, he thought, 'What a good opportunity to have a bath.'



He removed his clothes, put them aside on the  ...</description>

			<description>Dear Members,



In the unfortunate event of closing down of the Discussuion Board on BSNL Intranet by the authorities, we have lost the only common platform, that BSNL employees across the length and breadth of the country had, to come together and share their views.

So, members come aboard and start sharing your views.



While registering you  ...</description>
