Impact of media on Pakistani culture?
For many years, Indians have been using their media to despoil Pakistani society by injecting their own culture into it. This is quite dangerous as both of these countries, Pakistan and India, share a somewhat similar culture and language. Thus, some Pakistanis end up thinking that there is little or no difference between these two nations. Tune into any Pakistani radio station on a Saturday evening and you will find almost all of them playing tunes from Indian flicks that they term as 'Desi'. And that's not it, even our own "Free Media" is helping them out by copying the styles of their TV shows and Dramas, abolishing the decency that the Pakistani telefilm industry(especially PTV) possessed for years.
Depicting Muslims as terrorists and fantasizing to defeat a great many of them; creating and promoting the hoax of a direct linkage between Islam and Terrorism; promoting anti-Islamic and anti-Pakistan feelings is standard practice.These are the general traits of the Indian film industry a.k.a Bollywood.

What is the country code and area code while giving mobile numbers for India?
The country code for India is +91 (dialed as 00 91 from many places).
When calling from outside India, you must drop the trunk prefix '0' from the beginning of the Indian number. For example, Mumbai's area code 022 becomes +91 22. Large cities have two-digit area codes, smaller cities have 3-digit codes, and rural areas may have 4-digit codes, not counting the trunk prefix 0.
Mobile numbers begin with +91 7, +91 8, or +91 9. Each 4-digit mobile code (e.g., +91 9123) is assigned to one of 22 geographic zones, but there is no correlation between those mobile codes and the geographic landline area codes for the same region. Note also that there are some geographic landline area codes that begin with +91 7 or +91 8.
(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

Are all members of India's caste system reincarnated?
In Hinduism, reincarnation is absolutely part of the doctorine of of the caste system. The caste that one belongs to is thought to reflect the status of the evolution of that particular individual attained throughout many lifetimes.
The western view that "all men are created equal" is totally at odds with the view of the Hindu caste system, which views each man as being on a particular level of evolution and ability.
There is a great deal of misunderstanding in this regard, both in the west and the east. For those who do not believe in the Hindu theories of reincarnation, the caste system may be considered to be demeaning and discriminating to the members of the lower castes . It might be considered an evil system which grants undue privledges to the higher castes and discriminates against lower ones.
In the theory of the caste system, the family to which a person is born is determined by the degree of advancement which an individual has made through many births, both human and otherwise. The duties of the individual and their station in life is then predetermined by their birth.
The orthodox Hindu view is that this system is beneficial to society and is in accord with the laws of nature, and that nothing at all is wrong with stratifying society into castes. In fact, this division into castes is considered necessary for the proper functioning of society.
These orthodox Hindu views can be considered controversial, and may not be make any sense unless one also considers the Hindu views of reincarnation.

Can you send money from India to UAE?
hi,
I have been wanting to do this hence have done a lot of research on this and the best way so far to do this is to open an NRE account and have the money deposited in that account in India.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Satish's update on the above answer : You cannot deposit money in an NRE account in India, unless it is transferred from abroad. If you money is parked in a Resident account, then contact your bank, who'll help you in transferring funds abroad by 'Wire Transfer' or 'Demand draft'. Or, you could directly contact the RBI, who'll provide you with necessary guidelines.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------TransferNShop's update -
You can only send money abroad using Bank Wire Transfer which is available with almost all banks in India. Following are some important points.
1. You cannot send more than $2,00,000 per year outside India as per reserve bank of India's guidelines.
2. You need a PAN card for the same.
3. You need to specify a reason for transferring money. e.g. gift, business, etc
4. If the reason is not Gift, then you will need to produce a copy of Invoice.
5. If you can submit the duly signed forms before 11:30 AM then the transfer is done on the same day.
5. Total time duration is 48 hours.
6. The sending charges are less than Rs. 300/-
7. The receiving bank charges around $25 - $ 30 which the sender can decide who will bear.
8. In case of 'Gift' the receiver has to bear these charges.
9. You will need receiver's name, address, bank name, bank account number, bank branch, bank address, bank SWIFT code (ask the bank), your pan card number, invoice (if needed) and a Pen to fill forms :-) (filling forms takes around half hour if the bank executive cooperates well)
