You’ll Be Shocked To Know How Much Raghuram Rajan Earns Per Month As RBI Governor

Banks are an important part of our financial system and their smooth functioning is essential for the economy. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) which is the central bank of India controls all the commercial banks and ensures their proper functioning as per the needs of the economy, but have you ever thought how much the governor of RBI is taking home as salary?
Presently, the governor of RBI is Raghuram Rajan and the first perk that a governor enjoys is having his signature at the Indian currency.
Raghuram lives in a colonial bungalow situated on Carmicheal Road and his list of neighbors includes some really very rich businessmen of India; however, when it comes to the earnings of an RBI governor, it is very less in comparison to his neighbors.

RBI governor and Cabinet Secretary to the Indian government receive the same amount of salary and perks, so it means that the RBI governor is held equivalent to the highest civil servant of the country; however, if we consider the duties and his job profile, the RBI governor is a deputy finance minister in real terms.
As per data available till 30th June, 2015, Raghuram Rajan earns Rs 1.98 lakh per month which is not much considering the fact that some IIM graduates get better offers than this in their campus placement. However, the salary of the governor is set to revise very soon, as per RBI.

Death of a Star! in Bollywood

When I was flipping through my Diary 2002 the other day, my jottings about Monal’s tragic end beckoned me and brought to my mind a host of awesome nostalgic thoughts. I had a feeling of déjà vu as the dead artist again touched a chord in my heart. How would emotionally deplete artists behave when driven to wall? [Read on…] Monal, a starlet from Bollywood, hung herself to death on the Tamil New Year’s Day. A strange quirk of fate played havoc with her life, putting off her promising career of becoming an icon in the Kollywood. TV visuals showed her sleeping eternally on a bier; she was a feast to flies that were swarming her lissome body … a body that set fire to the hearts of thousands of her fans. Monal’s premature death moved me to a great extent not because she was one of the upcoming actors of the Kollywood and a diva for whom the tinsel world plumped rather madly, but because it set me thinking as to what led the young actor to kill herself savagely in the middle of her ...

27 Simple mehndi designs for hands for Karwa Chauth

The most  simple mehndi designs for hands  for Karwa Chauth 2014 Karwa Chauth  is around the corner and I am so excited about getting mehndi done! This time I plan to go with a simple yet quirky design. Don’t want my hands full, however it needs to be a style statement for this year’s most awaited festival for us ladies! There are some basic categories of mehndi designs, such as Gujrati, Rajasthani, Marwari,  Arabic  and African  patterns to choose from. They have certain prominent motifs or symbols that distinguishes one from the other. I just can’t seem to stop experimenting with these styles. From  circles to squares , peacocks and paisleys , checks and dots and what not. But my all-time favorite is a simple, curling vine, of course finger tips covered with thick coating of aromatic mehndi (which is so traditional). Quirky patterns include  traditional  as well as non-traditional patterns tweaked to one’s own liking. This includ...
