Friends, after keeping me in the dark about the reason for the suspension of my earlier handle, @rananth, @Twitter notified me that the cause of suspension was an alleged copyright violation under DMCA. But they didn't inform me which was the tweet which violated the rules.
Even though I agreed to abide by the rules of copyright and preferred another appeal, they haven't revoked the suspension of my account. I have therefore decided to open another account and start my innings afresh. Looking forward to a better experience this time around.
But we must all raise our voice against this arbitrary suspension of accounts by @Twitter without assigning any reason and not disclosing the reasons for the same for days together. If there was a copyright violation, they could have deleted the tweet in question.
But I would like to thank my friends who tweeted in my support - @indiantweeter, @pratyasharath, @riteshmisra, @abhish18 and @RjSmritii and many others for their messages of support. I am sure you will all continue to support me as I begin a fresh innings on Twitter. Thanks!

Lunchtime humour - A Chief Electrical Engineer of a PSU sent a proposal for the import of a 440V, 500 HP, 50 cycles squirrel cage induction motor to the finance manager (FM).
After going through the proposal the FM turned down the proposal with the following remarks:
Contd1/4
1. Cycles are manufactured in India by many companies and what is the necessity to import them?
2. Even if it has to be imported, why 50 cycles. Can't you manage with 15 cycles?
3. Squirel cages can be purchased from any hardware store. Why it should be imported?
Contd... 2/4
4. What is the need of double voltage (440v) when 220 v is easily available everywhere.
On receiving the return of the proposal and going through the remarks, the Chief Electrical Engineer was hospitalised due to shock.
