The kannada government has decided to ban mobiles for people (mind u not kids!) below the age of 16 in schools and junior colleges. (here)
Whatever little sense remains with me after reading this, i try to understand what could be the possible reason for this. I rule out brain damage. I rule out the fact that the government does not want people at this age to communicate. However, i think i can understand that they wouldn't want children to be blowing up precious currency on stupid calls and discussing boy friends and girl friends. Especially since the spectrum has suddenly become so precious, the patriotic Kannada govt. has decided to retain all wealth within India so the PHIRANGEES cannot use it.
However, the govt. is harping on the health risks posed to these youngsters from the usage of cellphones...
Sigh....
