1GB daily data fight: Airtel vs Jio vs BSNL vs Idea vs Vodafone and who offers the best plan
It is the Airtel vs BSNL vs Jio vs Idea vs Vodafone once again. This trend of 1GB daily data was first started by Reliance Jio and now almost all the leading telecom companies have something to offer in the name of 1GB daily data plan.
While Reliance Jio already had a Rs 399 plan, which was on Diwali "updated" along with other plans, Idea Cellular has recently launched 1GB daily data plan at Rs 399. Airtel and Vodafone had announced their Rs 399 plan in August that also offers 1GB daily data for nearly a month. BSNL is also giving consumers a similar plan but at a higher cost of Rs 429. So which of these plans is better? Which of these offer longer validity and which is the plan worth spending your money? Let's find out.

What is BSNL, Airtel, Vodafone, Jio and Idea offering?

BSNL: The state-owned telecom company BSNL last month announced a voice and data-centric Rs 429 plan for its prepaid mobile subscribers. With this plan the company offers 90GB data along with unlimited calls for 90 days all across the country except Kerala.
Airtel: Bharti Airtel has launched a Rs 399 plan only for its prepaid users. The company offers 1GB 4G data per day along with unlimited STD and local calls at Rs 399. Airtel has also announced that this plan can be clubbed with any other Airtel plan and is applicable only for Airtel 4G SIMs on 4G handsets.

Vodafone: Vodafone offers unlimited voice calls including STD, local and roaming along with 28GB 4G data for 28 days at Rs 392. The plan, however, is available only for Delhi-NCR circle.
Jio: Reliance Jio recently updated its plans. The company has reduced the validity of its Rs 399 tariff plan. It previously offered 1GB 4G data per day along with unlimited voice calls and SMSes for 84 days whereas now its offers the same but for 70 days.
Idea: The company, in April this year, revised its Rs 348 plan for prepaid users. It is now offering unlimited local and STD calls along with 1GB 4G data per day with FUP for 28 days.
Idea recently also launched a 1GB daily data plan for its post-paid users. The company is offering 1GB daily data along with unlimited local, STD calls and 100 SMSes at Rs 399. However, this plan is only for the new Idea subscribers and available only under home circle.

Now the validity...

BSNL's Rs 429 plan: 90 days. In other words truly 3 months.
Airtel's Rs 399 plan: 84 days
Vodafone's Rs 392 plan: 28 days
Jio's Rs 399 plan: 84 days
Idea's Rs 348 plan: 28 days

If 4G data is your only priority...

BSNL offers the longest validity of all but BSNL doesn't have a good network and most of the time it works on 3G or 2G network. So, if you are looking for a plan with high-speed internet then BSNL is out of the question. Jio is purely 4G while Airtel has fairly fast and reliable 3G service, that complements the 4G. Depending on the area where you are, you may find that 4G from one operator works better than the 4G offered by others. For example, in many areas in Delhi Vodafone's 4G works better than Airtel's.

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent?

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent? Email The most common answer to the question, “Why was Africa called the Dark Continent?” is that Europe did not know much about Africa until the 19 th century, but that answer is misleading. Europeans had known quite a lot, but they began ignoring earlier sources of information. More importantly, the  campaign against slavery  and missionary work in Africa actually intensified Europeans’ racial ideas about African people in the 1800s.   They called Africa the Dark Continent, because of the mysteries and the savagery they expected to find in the “Interior ."

OPINION | Dear Congress, Either Join The Tea Party, Or Lose T-Shirt In Gujarat The BJP understands, as the Congress does not, that tea symbolizes all the fuzzy warmth of Indian culture. It is a great leveller — from the richest to the poorest, everyone drinks tea. Mahatma Gandhi famously took his tea with a pinch of salt. It was 1931, the Salt Satyagraha was a year old and his tea-serving host was the British Viceroy, Lord Irwin. Had the Indian National Congress recalled that little soupcon of history, it would not have put out a meme of a British Prime Minister ordering another Gujarati (PM Narendra Modi) to ‘go sell tea’. The Mahatma was no great votary of tea, but was a master of symbolism. Gently rubbing salt into the Imperial wound, he twinkled, “To remind us of the famous Boston Tea Party”. An exquisite reference to the genesis of American Independence, with the implicit promise of freedom for India. If only today’s Congress understood the power of symbols a tenth as well.
