Ban ORKUT as there is loss to the postal department due to this as relatives use thisone for exchanging informations in the absence of ORKUT they would have added to the earnings of the Postal department.

Of course it should not be banned....
The worst assumption I have heard everywhere in the world about India is that its a free country. The parts of public life in India are only free because those in power didn't see it existing in a big way until now e.g. the Internet. People who visit India only feel free because parts of the system can be bought and it is possible to wholly live out of the big brother system that affects every part of life of a normal law abiding, tax paying Indian individual.
The Indian government, court system, criminal justice system, police system, social organizations are inherently tyrannical and oppressive to the smallest minority of an individual.
The lowest ranking policeman in an IT city like Bangalore can get away with slapping an IT professional.
If you are a mob in India, no laws apply to you at all. When your feelings are hurt you can go on a rampage, burn any individual's property, kill individuals, prevent people from excercising their freedoms and still claim sympathy of the "famed free press" of India and its spineless politicians.
Property rights have never been absolute in the socialist republic of India, petty politicians at local/state/central governments when you do not belong to their "vote bank" can acquire your land and private property without adequate compensation in the name of industrial development [Read in support of Big and Old Money]. Stir against Left government in West Bengal.
The behaviour of taxation authorities in India is such that if you happen to be a law abiding middle class individual, you are actually treated worse than a thief, the large discretionary powers enjoyed by tax authorities means that they can probably confisticate all your money and documents and then ask you to prove you paid your taxes for past 10 years and even record of your expenditures made throughout the year.
The plethora of police powers allows a lowest ranking policeman to charge you with terrorism, create news about it and haul you into prison where third degree tortures await you with no recourse to law unless you happen to be rich and powerful. And increasingly rich and powerful does not mean IT people with 'new money' as we found out in the recent past. Especially if you happen to work for IT sector, you can be charged under laws that most of the judiciary/police doesn't understand and you can spend days in jail with no recourse.
Fortunately or un-fortunately if you belong to the middle class in India, you haven't very likely personally faced the tyrannical state unless you found yourself returning from your office on foot at mid-night or like to eat out late or your gated society was attacked by angry villagers in Noida[citation needed] demanding right of the way through your private property. The "famed free press" is ever short on depth and even reasonableness in exploiting personal tragedy and is barely objective in reporting most stories.
When governments, courts, police, organisations, organized religion are faced with what they don't understand. They respond with the wide array of discretionary powers they have collected for themselves. The "letter of the law" in India is designed to be ambiguous precisely to
give politicians and bureaucrats un-limited power over the way you choose to live your life, whether it is your sex life, love life, life on Internet. They want to control what you see and what you do everywhere.
Somehow thanks due to accident of history the politicians in power largely ignored Internet since thanks to bungling by private ISPs it never grew up into a potent force in India. However not anymore unless well we defend these final frontiers to freedom, the increasing trend of reverse brain drain would be lost forever.
As Paul Graham says
"It seems to be a constant throughout history: In every period, people believed things that were just ridiculous, and believed them so strongly that you would have gotten in terrible trouble for saying otherwise"
