> Heck, they even elected quite a few convicted criminals to lead the Government

Can you give an example of a "convicted" (not accused) elected member from India?

>For example, a small search on Amit Shah and his fake encounters

Amit Shah has not been convicted. The case is ongoing.

>To me all this showdown to ban Uber seems more like an attempt to squeeze a little extra dollars from an American company.

By banning Uber they are trying to squeeze more dollars from it?

Yes, maybe people should know that running arbitrary JavaScript is dangerous, but they don't.

If you turn on dim in the browser, the status isn't reflected in the phone.Thereafter off becomes on and vice-versa

Good catch. It's because I cheated. The command will be sent from the phone to the desktop, the phone on the other hand does not receive the state of the dim. Button text is just changed by click event. Gonna change soon.
