Sharad pawar, Sangm, Praful patel and many congress leaders walked out and formed new party because of sonia's foreign origin! Perhaps more members would have left the party had soni been a nigerian.

Indira gandhi kicked out maneka gandhi our of her house because of her native streak, and soni was retained. We will know why only when maneka writes her bio.

[h=3]Now, bendable battery that can charge your smartphone in 60 seconds[/h] Wellington, Apr 7 (ANI): New technology definitely seems to aim at saving our time and a bendable battery that could charge a smartphone in 60 seconds perfectly fits in that category. Scientists of Stanford University have invented a flexible, high-performance aluminium battery that charges in about 1 minute and can go from flat to full in a fraction of the time it currently takes to pull in enough electricity to fully charge a phone, laptop or tablet, Stuff.co.nz reported. While an iPhone 6 takes around two hours to fully charge its in-built battery, if it was fitted with the aluminium power source it would be completely topped up in around 60 seconds.
