ASUS Zenfone 2, to celebrate your uniqueness

In the present world, the technology changes at the every split of a second and that’s the reason whatever you may opt, it will soon become the obsolete. In such circumstances, if you are opting a mobile handset, that already belongs to the earlier generations, you will always be at the last end of the queue. In my opinion, we must go for the technology that is either just launched or that’s, yet to be launched.

ASUS ZenFone 2 is one such technology that’s yet to be launched. It is the latest smart phone that will enter the market on 23rd of April.

Strange, there are still many persons who will opt for a lower category of smart phone that has a small camera, which can’t even click a proper quality pic in the day, while ASUS Zenfone offers a smart click in the darkest night without a flash  and with 400% brightness.

Strange, there are still many buyers opting for the 500 MB Ram or 1 GB RAM, while ASUS Zenfone 2 offers a smart mobile handset with 4 GB of RAM.

Strange, there are many customers opting the phone that must be charged at routine intervals as it can’t properly charge its battery in a limited time, whereas, ASUS Zenfone 2 offers the advanced technology that can charge upto 60% of your smart phone in just 39 minutes.

Strange, there are still many persons who are happy with the old 3G technology while most of the service providers are going for 4G and that too while ASUS Zenfone 2 has offered its smart mobile handset with 4G.

Strange, there are many persons who are buying a smart phone that offers a single sim while the latest & advanced technology offered by ASUS Zenfone 2 can hold Dual Sims, Dual active.

Strange, there are still many persons who are being fooled by vendors by selling the obsolete technology while a little effort could lead to the latest & brand new mechanism that could always keep you in the front.

The luxury at the affordable prices, that could easily redefine your smart phone experiences is the technology being offered by ASUS as Zenfone 2. It’s a marvel of craftsmanship & engineering, in the palm of your hand with unprecedented performance. Its beautifully crafted with ultra thin edges. It offers Ergonomic arc design with Intuitive rear controls.

Just have a look at it. Just feel it. Just try it once and I am sure you will run to buy it at the first go. It’s a big phone, 5.5” that will allow you to celebrate your uniqueness. It will be a simpler, smarter, more personalized Zenfone experience. Plz log on to : http://www.asus.com/Phones/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/.

Will take action only after getting clarifications: Akal Takht


Akal Takht, the highest spiritual- cum-temporal Sikh seat, has denied giving clean-chit to the controversial movie 'Nanak Shah Fakir' and said it will take action only after receiving clarification from the film maker. 

"The clarifications would be available by tomorrow. After going through the clarifications, Akal Takht will take action," head of Akal Takht Gurbachan Singh told reporters. 

He denied that he had given any clean-chit to the film. 

Several Sikh bodies had been opposing the release of the movie, produced by Harinder Singh Sikka, alleging the film subverts fundamental belief-system of Sikh faith by allegedly portraying Guru Nanak Dev in human-form, via computer graphics or blurred images. 

They also objected to playing role of major characters by "apostates". 

They argued that since Sikhism was a monotheistic in character and believed in a formless God, the film had hit a low standard with its contentious contents.

SGPC against non-baptised Sikh as chief of Maha Board


Phagwara, Apr 6 (PTI) SGPC President Avtar Singh Makkar said he will oppose at every level the appointment of a non-baptised Sikh as chief of the Management Board of Takht Sri Hazur Sahib at Nanded in Maharashtra.

If needed, he will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi in this regard, he said here yesterday night.

Makkar termed the recent appointment of BJP MLA Tara Singh by Maharashtra government as Board's chief a "blatant violation of established Sikh tenets, the highly venerated Sikh norms and 'maryada' and direct interference in the religious affairs of Sikhs".

He alleged that a non-baptised Sikh was appointed by Maharashtra government to the key post despite opposition from all concerned quarters, including Sikh 'sangat'.

"If required, I will lead a delegation to PM Modi for seeking his intervention in this connection," he said, adding, Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal had written to Modi in this connection.
