Be Careful At the Indian Airports

March 4, 2009 – 7:07 pm
Be Careful At the Indian Airports, this is a well organized conspiracy by Indian Immigration, Police, Customs and Air India staff with networking at all the Indian International Airports. Be watchful when ever you give your passport to Immigration/ Customs/Air India staff. The pass port can be easily tampered and can create trouble to you. They have found easy way of making money from NRIs. This is the way it works: At the time of the passenger's departure, if the passenger is not looking at the officer while he is stamping the exit, the officer very cleverly tears away one of the page from the passport. When the passenger leaves the immigration counter, the case is reported on his computer terminal with full details. Now all over India they have got full details of the passenger with Red Flag flashing on the Passport number entered by the departure immigration officer. They ...

Lapis Lazuli is a semi-precious stone prized since antiquity for its intense blue color. The finest color is intense blue lightly dusted with small flecks of golden pyrite.
