 MIXER WITH LIFT.
A R Vinayak Das  |  Argues in support of  "MIXER WITH LIFT."  |  2 years ago
Depends on the type of work for works involving huge quantity of concrete RMC is advisable whereas for minor works mixer would serve the purpose.
alok sahdev  |  Argues in support of  "RMC"  |  2 years ago
support RMC , specially if you are buying from a reputed supplier like L T,sites with tight targets of the order of 24X7 , human involvement should minimise to the extent possible, with the type of standards existing ,i would prefer RMC
Punit Gupta  |  Argues in support of  "RMC"  |  2 years ago

Sorry, I travel 60 kms a day and I have health problems when in dusty or rainy situations.   Cycle cant replace my car. But if cycling was possible save a lot of money and walk that distance its a good exercise.
A R Vinayak Das  |  Argues in support of  |  2 years ago
switching over to public transport systems like trains, buses, metro rail etc will be the most preferred idea so that parking problem can be solve to a great extent
C Nijagunaradhya  |  Argues in support of  "e- cars"  |  2 years ago
I think majority of people prefer COMFORT in travelling. Thats the reason everyone of us wanna have it.  When it comes to the point of traffic i would say that govt should start construction of  METRO RAIL in every city from now itself because...

I dont think praising Jinnah will do any good for the BJP. First of all they have to come out of thier fundamental character.

Himanshu Pathak  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I don't think so, this is just anti - congress thing that they are doing and they are going to such an extent that they are even praising Jinnah this clearly gives out their frustaration against Congress in this regard. And now BJP leaders are...
