Road Price Bullet Digital 70 Sparks Uproar in India

Road Prince Bullet Digital 70

Road Price Bullet Digital 70 is a motorcycle manufactured by Road Brand which is situated in Punjab. The brand is very well-known all across the country for its bikes.

In a recent debate, Indians have called out the brand for impersonating a famous brand in India called Royal Enfield. According to many Indians, the Pakistani Bullet is a copy of the signature Indian Bullet.

Volkswagen is Officially Coming to Pakistan!

Royal Enfield Bullet vs. Road Price Bullet Digital 70

Bullet
Left: Road prince Bullet Digital 70, Right: Royal Enfield Bullet 350

The Indian Royal Enfield Bullet is offered in two engine options, 350cc and 500cc. Bullet is a very popular variant in the country, it is often considered as the ideal ride for the Indian youth and has become synonymous with an old-school street cruiser.

Whereas the Pakistani version of the Bullet is available with a 70cc engine and is priced at Rs 43,000 respectively (roughly INR 24,000).

Not only that, they have further stated that the look and design of the Road Price Bullet Digital 70 are inspired by two popular bikes from India which are no longer in production, Honda CD 100 and Bajaj Byk.

Years back, there was a lot of noise about Chinese motorcycles coming to the Indian market and were said to be priced under Rs 30,000. However, they were a massive failure as the local manufacturers ruled the industry, whereas, in Pakistan, Chinese and foreign brands have become more popular.

What is your opinion on this controversy?

MRF Tyres ICC Men’s ODI Player Rankings: Fakhar & Shadab Achieve Career-Best Positions!

ICC Men’s ODI Player Rankings

According to the latest ICC ODI Rankings, Pakistani opener Fakhar Zaman has achieved a career-best ranking to date from the series in the UAE, which ended at one-all after the decider in Dubai was washed-out.

The left-handed opener had scores of one, 88 and 65, which have lifted him six places to 11th in the latest rankings. The 28-year-old, however, will not be part of the Test squad.

Similarly, Shadab Khan has also achieved a career-high bowling ranking but will not feature in the upcoming Tests. The wrist spinner bagged six wickets in the series, including four for 38 in the second match, to vault 16 places to 24th position.

The other bowler to make an impact in the ODIs and one to look out for in the Tests is Lachlan Ferguson. The New Zealand fast bowler had figures of three for 40, three for 60 and five for 45 during the series, which also reflect in the latest rankings, in which he has rocketed 31 places to 42nd.

Shaheen Afridi, who took nine wickets in the series and won the player of the series award, has risen 66 places to sit just outside the top-100 in 118th position.

However, Trent Boult and Hasan Ali have been unable to either defend or improve their rankings.

Boult had made a dream start to his season when he took a hat-trick in only his second over. However, he managed to add just one more wicket to his tally and consequently finished in the seventh position after starting in fourth place.

Hasan, who had started the year with a number one ranking, has continued to slide. After falling three places following his four wickets, he is now ranked 13th but remains his side’s highest-ranked bowler.

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

smartphone
Image Source/cnet

What happens if one day you pick-up your Android phone, press the power button and there’s no response?

You end up staring at a blank screen only to realize that your phone is… DEAD! The situation is nerve-wracking and can put even the tech-enthusiasts of people into a tight spot.

However, there is a way to revive a dead Android phone!

There are some rather simple troubleshooting ideas that you can take to identify the problem and try to fix it.

Before you take your phone to your carrier, try figuring out the problem yourself, by doing the following steps:

1. Plug in the Charger

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

If there is a charger near you, grab it, plug it in and hit the power button again. The battery might just be dead as it is not unheard of defective batteries losing charge abruptly.

Once the cable is plugged into the phone, it should be able to start up. If your phone has lights for notifications, this is a good way to know if the charging indicator comes on. The very least that means that the circuit from the USB to the main port is working fine.

If this works, then you might just have a broken battery, which can be easily replaced, however, if this still does not, then its time to take some drastic steps.

2. Send a Text to Wake it up

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

If you’re unable to connect your phone to a power source, you can ask someone to send you a text message or give you a call.

This way you can check to see if your phone is operating behind the scenes. If you get a notification sound, or the screen comes on for a call, you could just be having issues with your power button.

This can be replaced and fixed quite cheaply if your phone isn’t under warranty if it is then head to your carrier straight away.

3. Pull the Battery

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

This is a quick fix to wake up your sleeping phone, simply pull out the battery and then plug it back in a few moments later.

It is possible that your phone is just having a system hang, and in rare circumstances, Android systems have been known to freeze quite poorly, so poorly that even by pressing the power button, there is no response.

The only slight risk of this is that you might end up losing unsaved work, but desperate times require desperate measures.

Once the battery is plugged in again, check if your phone can get to restart. If the phone still does not boot up, take a look at the battery compartment, there will be a small square of what appears to be a white paper embedded in this area.

This is the moisture indicator and if it has turned pink or red even partially, this means your phone has been exposed to water and it means your warranty is shot and the phone is dead.

4. Use Recovery Mode to Wipe the Phone

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

If the phone shows partial signs of life, starting up and hanging or quickly crashes back to the non-responsive state, you might wanna factory reset it.

A bad error or a random error could have corrupted your OS, so now you try accessing recovery mode on your phone as it starts up.

While doing this, you will need to hold down a few buttons until the phone starts up to get into the boot.

The screen after doing this will display a text, but there should also be a recovery option appearing, press that and you will get a screen with a phone & an exclamation point over it.

5. Time to Contact the Manufacturer

How to Revive a Dead Android Phone

If all fails, it’s time you called up the manufacturer or your carrier. If it’s under warranty you’ll get a new phone. If not then you will need to pay for refurbishment or a brand new phone.

Daraz’s Response to Haters Over 11.11 Website Crash Wins the Internet!

This year, Daraz took the November sale season to a whole new level by launching 11.11 shopping festival for the first time in Pakistan.

The extravaganza, introduced by the parent company and e-commerce giant Alibaba, 10 years ago, aimed to drive Pakistan into a new era of online shopping.

With so much hype and hoopla, extraordinary discounts and exclusive launches by top brands, the leading e-commerce company managed to create a massive buzz over the weekend.

Daraz Brings the World’s Biggest Sale Day – Alibaba’s 11.11 Global Shopping Festival – to Pakistan

The Gyara Gyara Sale kicked off at midnight of November 11 and lasted for 24 hours, featuring discounts of up to 91%.

As predicted, shopping buffs thronged the website to avail the tempting offers while they lasted. Consequently, Daraz’s app and the website crashed as their server went down due to heavy traffic.

Twitterverse was quick to troll the brand after the crashing episode! 

A flood of memes erupted on the web and some of them were pretty savage!

But Daraz came back even stronger with an epic reply to all the haters. Apologizing for the inconvenience caused due to the crash, the website offered a voucher code to make up to its customers.

But the name of the voucher code ‘ JaaneDo’ is what made us all laugh out loud!

Sorry that the app was down. Some of your responses were hilarious. Thanks for making us smile while we were working…

While Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai is making waves with her vision for diversity, she’s also taking time from her commitments to spend time with her family members and friends.

Her busy study schedule isn’t stopping Malala from ensuring that she spends a quality time with her loved ones.

Recently, the young educationist was spotted celebrating Diwali with friends in Oxford University. The Nobel prize winner can be seen donned in a white Anarkali dress with floral motifs on it.

The dupatta and the golden border of the Anarkali only amped up her vibrant look. Moreover, she accessorized with nothing but just a pair of silver earrings making her look more elegant.

She took to her social media accounts shared pictures with the caption: 

How boring Oxford life would be without the colours and lights of Diwali Ball ✨ (and my friends… sometimes)

Have a look at the pictures!

The brave activist came under the spotlight when a Taliban gunman shot her in the head back in 2012.

Yousafzai was just 17 when she grabbed the title of the youngest person to win the Nobel peace prize in 2014!

Since then, she has continued working for the better education for girls not only in Pakistan but in other neglected areas as well.

Maula Jatt – The Truth Behind Stay Order

Maula-Jutt

A year and a half since Bilal Lashari’s reboot of 1979’s Maula Jatt encountered copyright infringement claims by the original producer; accusing the producer and director of not taking his permission before his classic film’s remake.

Mr. Bhatti recently resurfaced with a new claim that he had attained a stay order from court over Maula Jatt, however, Intellectual Property Tribunal of Lahore (presided by Judge Khalid Mehmood Bhatti) vacated the stay order in Producer Ammara Hikmat and Director Bilal Lashari’s favor months ago.

The complaint made by Sarwar Bhatti to FIA in October 2017 also led to The Intellectual Property Organisation issuing a letter following month stating that no violation of Copy Right Ordinance 1962 has been committed by Encyclomedia (Producer Ammara Hikmat’s company) and Lashari Films (headed by Director Bilal Lashari). The copyright owner/creator Nasir Adeeb and his assignees have rights to produce any new work if they desire to; thus bringing light to Mr. Bhatti’s claims and allegations over false ownership of literary rights.

Mr. Bhatti also stated that he was the co-writer of Maula Jatt in an effort to discredit the original writer Nasir Adeeb of Maula Jatt (1979) and the creator of Maula and Noori characters, who currently holds the world record for writing the most number of scripts for movies in Pakistan which is 476.

Mr. Nasir Adeeb wrote Maula Jatt (1979) as a sequel to Wehshi Jatt (1975) which introduced the character Maula for the first time. ‘Maula Jatt in London’, ‘Maula Te Nuri’ are some of the other sequels of Maula Jatt franchise all written by Nasir Adeeb.

The decision by IP tribunal (session court) has been written on the basis of Mr Nasir Adeeb being the only constant factor between all Maula Jatt movies ever made, all having different directors and producers each time.

The characters, dialogues, and story fall under literary rights and hence belong to the writer. The film directed by Bilal Lashari has a new screenplay and is a new film altogether, therefore, no copyright infringement has taken place.
