Fish Rain Near Jamnagar
Mysterious "Fish rain" is not yet over. Before few days it was Bhanwad, and now its Bantiya village of Junagadh district.
Many Forest officials and Naturalist believed that the fishes must have been dropped by pelicans during migration, Jamnagar Fisheries dept. have ruled out the possibility that fish can get sucked in clouds and then fall as rain, they feel it as "absurd". For those who think it is not possible, check out the BBC Article on Fish Rain
Navagam (Bhanwad) villagers said that they saw about half a kilometer long and as much wide fish-laden clouds about 15 feet above the ground. This looks a bit outrageous though.
In Nawagam, fish fall was seen along with roads and markets and on terraces of several buildings.

Post its commissioning in december, Jamnagar Reliance Refinery Unit 1 boasts capacity of 650,000 bpd.
It is interesting that RIL Refinery is operating at capacity 12% higher then the official output capacity, once the new setup will get commissioned (in about a year) the total output of the refinery will be amongst world largest refinery in terms of output capacity. Total refining capacity of this complex will become 1,380,000 bpd.
Although these are vibes for shareholders, petro analysts are very cautious, the refinery produce market is alrady over supplied and this expansion seems only a trick to not to pay heavy taxes to Indian Governement. When questioned RIL declined to comment on this issue.
Jamnagar Refinery Complex is already the world's largest refining hub.
