Hi friends,

Here is our link for today:

http://indiancurrentaffairs.blogspot.com/2008/06/13062008.html

In today's briefing:

1.  A strong rebound in industrial growth is heartening.  But worries on oil pricing remain.

2.  RBI hiked the repo rate.  What is repo rate?

3.  What are 'triggers' in the context of WTO agriculture talks?

4.  RBI comes out with guidelines for m-banking.  A revolutionary step.

5.  Why is there a case for helping the aviation sector. While learning about it, we learn about 'externalities'.

6.  Why is a current account deficit bad?

7.  A deer with a unicorn spotted in Italy.

8.  Dasavatharam being released today.

9.  ISO puts Microsoft's OOXML format on hold following objections from some countries including India.

That's it for today.  Happy reading.
