For a couple of weeks, Jio Fiber technology has been a hot topic for us with its updated Unlimited plans in India. Jio is going to introduce a new world of broadband service plans with the Jio Fiber. Regarding this, Bharti Airtel has also updated that Airtel is coming with the Xstream Fiber Broadband Plans with ‘Unlimited’ high-speed data. The Telecomm company also announced that the Xstream Fiber is providing the Xstream Android 4K TV Box with all its Xstream Fiber plans, along with complimentary access to a list of OTT apps. According to the company, the new changes will come just in a week.

As per the media, Airtel has already started offering its Xstream Fiber broadband services through five different monthly plans. The starting price is Rs.499. It is the lowest package with up to 40Mbps speed. There are also more expensive packages gradually, like Rs.799, Rs.999, Rs.1,499, and Rs.3,999 plans with up to 100Mbps, 200Mbps, 300Mbps, and 1Gbps speeds respectively. There will be no limited amount of data in any of the plans. Every package comes with unlimited high-speed data allocation. However, there is still a Fair Usage Policy (FUP) capped at 3,333GB post which will reduce speeds to 1,024Kbps / 1MBps. This is mentioned on the terms and conditions page of Airtel.

Not only data plans but also the Airtel Xstream Fiber plans will offer unlimited voice calling benefits for the customers who are using a landline phone with their connection. It is quite weird actually, that in most of the houses, land phones are almost obsolete. But whoever still uses a landline connection, can easily grab the opportunity from Airtel and enjoy unlimited calling. The plans also include over 10,000 movies, shows, and original series from OTT apps and studios. Moreover, Rs.999, Rs.1,499, and Rs.3,999 Airtel broadband plans are also bundled with Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, and Zee5 services.

Airtel has also announced the Xstream Bundle offering, that comes with the Xstream Android 4K TV Box to its broadband users at a security deposit of Rs.1,500, along with complimentary access to Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, and Zee5. Airtel offered the TV Box at an identical security deposit for its broadband customers earlier as well.

You can get all the broadband plans of Airtel on its website as well as the Airtel Thanks app. Everything has already listed there. The customers who are using the Xstream Fiber broadband service have been upgraded with the unlimited Internet offering. The Mumbai based telecom operator also offered a “no-condition 30-day free trial” to all its new customers. They also provided a trial of its new plans to its existing subscribers.

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has built a task force in a bid to end child hunger in the UK

Manchester United star Marcus Rashford is winning hearts every day on and off the field. Every human being is hailing Rashford for his great work outside the football pitch.

He has taken a resolution to end child hunger in the UK. The England striker forced the UK-government to take a U-turn on free school meals earlier this summer, which was admired by everyone around the world.

As per a recent report by BBC, Rashford has tied up with multiple food brands to build up a task-force to tackle child food poverty in the UK.

Aldi, Asda, Co-op, Deliveroo, FareShare, Food Foundation, Iceland, Kellogg’s, Lidl, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, and Waitrose are a part of this taskforce and backed proposals from the National Food Strategy, an independent review of UK food policy.

In the next 6 weeks, the task force members will share stories of those most affected by child food insecurity in the UK.

The taskforce is calling for three policy recommendations by the National Food Strategy to be funded by the government as soon as possible:

  • Expanding free school meals to every child from a household on Universal Credit or equivalent, reaching an additional 1.5m children aged seven to 16
  • Expanding an existing school holiday food and activities programme to support all children on free school meals in all areas of England. instead of the current 50,000 children that are helped
  • Increasing the value of the Healthy Start vouchers – which help parents with children under the age of four and pregnant women buy some basic foods – from £3.10 to £4.25 per week, and expanding it to all those on Universal Credit or equivalent, reaching an additional 290,000 people

Rashford reminds his childhood days while giving an interview to the BBC. He has spoken about how he used a food voucher as a child.

He said, “I think we pretty much knew straight away we had found a short-term solution but that wasn’t going to work in the long run.”

“We had to think about how’s the best way to do it so these families can eat long term and not have any issues.”.

On Twitter, Rashford expressed that he was humbled to stand side by side with them all. He also announced the task-force and their vision with a video from his twitter handle.

0

Vodafone-Idea, one of India’s three major telecom companies, is expected to make a major announcement later today. The strategic announcement will be made via a virtual conference.

Vodafone Idea is likely to relaunch its new brand today, unveiling a completely new identity and communication around it. The new brand identity is to combine and relaunch the products. the organization has till now been advertising the two brands separately, the officials of the telco reported.

Interested parties have been offered a web portal to register for the live announcement. It is speculated to be a major investment announcement from global stakeholders looking to enter India’s telecom industry.

Recently, due to an increase in competition, Vodafone-idea has been losing its customers rapidly and is also under fire to pay its Adjusted Gross Revenue dues to the Indian government.

The official said, unveiling the new brand is to showcase its superior call quality and top notch services.

To attract a new set of subscribers, Vodafone-idea assured superior quality under its new brand and further user erosion can be prevented. Erstwhile, the Idea cellular had more rural reach, Vodafone was popular among urban areas. The telecom has already integrated its postpaid plans under its Vodafone brand.

But, Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, has been steadily snatching customers from the telecom.

The analyst has suggested, the only way for Vodafone-idea escape fro the AGR on-sought, that has taken a heavy toll on their balance sheet is by selling its stake to investors and attracting heavy investments.

The earlier reports stated that the managing board of Vodafone’s idea has sanctioned the sale of equity and non-convertible defenders, in an attempt to raise over Rs.25,000 crores.

Out of its Rs. 58,000 crore of dues, Vodafone-idea has successfully managed to pay Rs 7,800. Vodafone-idea and other telecom operators have been allowed a period of 10 years, to clear all AGR dues in yearly installments. Even in this difficult situation, big names like Google. Amazon and Verizon have been linked with talks of investing in Vodafone-idea.

It will be interesting to see what strategic announcement does Vodafone-Idea makes in order to boost its position in the market. Injection of fresh funds will also allow Vodafone-Idea to upgrade its network infrastructure.

Which will be crucial for the operator to reduce the erosion of subscribers from its network. To improve its poor network quality, and to increase its average revenue per user. It can further increase its operating revenue and allow Telecom to stay afloat in the Indian telecom market.

Novak Djokovic disqualified from US Open 2020

0

The moment you think 2020 has shown you the most bizarre string of events in history, it does one better. The latest victim to the abomination is none other than the world’s number one tennis player right now, Novak Djokovic.

The Serbian faced off against Pablo Carreño Busta in the fourth round of the US Open and lost a point against the Spaniard to give him a lead of 6-5.

Out of frustration, he discarded a ball and it caught a female line judge square in the throat. A video to the incident is available below:

On watching the video it becomes very clear that the Serb did not intend on hitting the lines judge and only acted out of disappointment at his performance.

Though his actions were not intentional, the US Open officials were forced to disqualify Djokovic due to the rules of the competition. The rules do not make an exception, even for the world’s number one tennis player.

Djokovic took to Twitter and Instagram to apologize and condemn his actions on the court, acknowledging his errors and accepting the power of the rules like a true sportsman.

Pablo Carreno Busta has also come to Djokovic’s defense, stating that it was clear that his opponent did not intend on hitting the lines judge. His back was turned to the court as he was celebrating the point he had just won while looking to his coach. When he turned back, the lines judge was down and confusion took over the Spaniard.

As surprising as it may seem, this is not the first time the Serbian Superstar has been violent on the court in a frustrated mood.

The lines judge who got hit by the ball appears to be fine, as reported by Djokovic and the US Open. While it is a sad incident, it is also a lesson to be learnt for Djokovic and for budding sportspersons to control their emotions in the game.

Things change with years and so did MediaTek, it largely invested in the mobile SoC market, came up with a successful Helio P series then went onto making the budget gaming G series. The breakthrough happened when it introduced its Dimensity series of powerful SoCs with 5G support, powering the mid-range devices, at first few major Chinese OEMs used its chips and when the chips like Dimensity 1000 or 800 just dominated any other mid-range Qualcomm chipsets, a lot of OEMs are now using Dimensity chips.

In the past few years, the mid-range smartphone market has surpassed the expectation and has become one of the key market with people buying mid-range devices, because that $400-$600 price margin has got a lot of good phones now. Gone are the days when people had to spend a lot for a flagship phone, now, mid-range has become the new hotspot in the smartphone world.
