Hi friends,

In today's briefing:

1. Census 2011 preliminary results are out. Full details expected to be available only by June 2012. Some highlights for us.

2. A peek into the mammoth effort that the Census operations are.

3. The Judicial Commission to Pak may be a non-starter.

4. Strong views being aired about the undesirability of nuclear power. But let's have our counsel for ourselves for now.

5. FDI policy reviewed. Some existing policy confusion is cleared too.

6. Vodafone to buy out Ruias for about $5 bn

7. A very good quote for you.

8. US Treasury made a cool $23 bn profit on its investments in bailouts.

9. John le Carre withdraws from Man Booker International prize.

10. Language lessons: outre, hoof it, ingenuous.

That's it for today. Happy reading.
