24, 23 and 22 May

24th
Completed morning program. Visited SBI. In chamber from 2:15 to 4.15 pm. The Sony service centre handed over the laptop after repairs. My all personal data is gone, though I did not have much of it in the laptop  as I have used it only for a few months. I got it in Oct. 2012. I keep most of  the data in desktop. The technician advised me that I should scan and update the laptop every two three days for 15 minutes. It is a good preventive against virus which corrupts the Windows.  He explained   the process  of scanning and updating. Shri Vaibhav is the technician at the Sony Service centre, Jail road. His mobile no is 9958008792. He suggested that we should periodically transfer and store the data in a separate Disk/CD also for its protection against virus and corruption. My desktop is also corrupted. The technician who checked the desktop said that new Windows were required to be put in it. My personal data will, however, remain  unaffected in the process. He is charging Rs. 1000/- for it. I did not have to pay for repairs to the laptop as it is covered by warranty.  Retired to sleep at 10.30 pm.

23rd
Completed morning program. Visited CGHS and SBI. In chamber from 2:30 to 4pm. The Laptop broke down when I was about to send blog dated 22nd May. I had to give it to the Sony Service Centre for repairs. Retired to sleep at 11 pm.

22nd
Completed morning program. Visited CGHS. In chamber from 12:45 to 5.15 pm.
Legality of action against cricketers for betting and match fixing is being questioned. Although sections of IPC relating to criminal breach of trust and criminal conspiracy have been added apart from cheating, but the plausibility of the same is likely to be examined closely by the courts. If the courts do no accept the application of these sections in the existing circumstances, the cricketers and bookies will be released on bail. In that event, the whole facade of action against them and media hype will tantamount to 'much ado about nothing'. The offences under the Gambling Act are all bailable. The Law Minister's statement for the need to have a Special Law to deal with match fixing and betting is significant.
Retired to sleep at 11.30 pm.
