The meter reader from my discom every times reads the meter incorrectly. He is an engineer/Diploma holder. Koi technology hai eyes, dimag theek karney ki?
Meter reading guys are getting obsolete fast with the nationwide installation of smart readers. No meter reading in my house since last few months.

DAE introduces Advanced CRM to strengthen Rare Earth Element Exploration and Processing
The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) today announced the release of an indigenously developed Certified Reference Material (CRM) titled Ferrocarbonatite (FC) – BARC B1401. The CRM was formally launched by Dr. A.K. Mohanty, Chairman, Atomic Energy Commission and Secretary, DAE. This newly developed CRM is expected to play a vital role in exploration, extraction, and process control in Rare Earth Elements (REEs) ore mining and allied production sectors. It will also support analytical method development, instrument calibration, and quality control across scientific, academic, and industrial domains.The FC-CRM provides certified values for thirteen (13) Rare Earth Elements—Ce, Dy, Er, Eu, Gd, La, Nd, Pr, Sc, Sm, Tb, Y and Yb—along with six (06) major elements, namely Al, Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn and P. This achievement marks the first such CRM developed in India and only the fourth of its kind in the world.
REE analysis tech appears to be maturing!
Next, India needs environmentally safe REE extraction tech -- potentially build on the IREL/Japanese JV in exchange for granting the Japanese continued rights to buy REEs from India.
Let's thank the Chinese for providing India the opportunity to become a major global REE player
