The Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act 1958 takes care of monuments of historical importance and going by this act/or law, an "ancient monument" means any structure, erection or monument, or any tumulus or place of interment, or any cave, rock-sculpture, inscription or monolith which is of historical, archaeological or artistic interest and which has been in existence for not less than 100 years. According to ASI here are the following criteria which define ancient monument and the veracity and importance of it. • Remains of an ancient monument • Site of an ancient monument • Such portion of land adjoining the site of an ancient monument as may be required for fencing or covering in or otherwise preserving such monument. Last time I went to the Wikipedia meet at Hauz Khas, it emerged that Wikipedia is seriously doing something about historical monument. And yes they do it. My friend Ankit reminded me. There are over 3650 ancient monu...

BATTLE OF DELHL Did you know that 207 years ago, in September 3,477 Indians, British and the French were killed or perished in the famous Anglo Maratha war? From the Sector – 44 bus stop, Noida, the upper quarter of this historic monument was passed off as a secret tunnel, sic, by an elderly gentleman who was waiting for his UP roadways bus heading Greater Noida. “Surang hai iske neeche.” Kamla Prasad from Dadri confidently pronounce. 10 out of 10 people when asked about the War Memorial perched within the Noida Golf Course, safely. The rock, an arched monument behind, with specific Victorian architecture is largely unknown to many people. The memoir of the second Anglo Maratha war is by large off to public and it woudn’t be surprising if many of us would be unaware of the historic battle was being fought dated 11 September also called the 9/11 of 1803 -1805. The win (by the British) formally established the East India Company's presence in India. Battle of Patpa...

He is our friend, like a silent observer. Always ready to do anything for us. I learn some things from him.

Wow, what a Sunday, all by myself. Heard Clapton, MJ, current radio, updated myself with the trash, which I dont need anymore, poched an egg, followed by a mushroom soup. Such a blissful experience. Worked, saw Bale's another work, it was good. Read the paper to complete the space. A milky cha in the morning was not bad, a little syrypy, I prefer strong. Goes well with cigarrates too, strong. Cleaned my room, still messy :. Would see the American Pshycho for sure tonight. Catch you sooner now.

The other day i received an email from our partners in B'lore, followed by a phone call by Apurva. He was telling me to do a host of things, it said, create a team name, create a badge, logo, icons and dont know what. I managed to decode what he said after digging an email from the slumbers. It read, exactly what he was saying. In 30 minutes we created everything which was required. I was particularly impressed with my designer friend's effort, which paid off in 10 minutes. it's a different case that I had to spend another 30 minutes to explain him what exactly i was looking for. The subject was on "Zen", later I discovered that zen philosophy believed that nirvana is actually possible in this life. We just need to streamline our activities and lead a more disciplined life. Zenist's also believed in dropping an illusionary vision and live in a real life. Zen or no Zen, i personally feel that disconnecting from the real world for sometime at regular intervals i...

I guess the meteorological department and the national media too are a little bit too hyper about jumping their guns and predictions pertaining to the advent of monsoon. I remember how the meteorological people have tough times to predict monsoon or when or not the rains might arrive. So what if they are somewhat right this time? Winds of change, despite low rains and waging recession. The rain is flirting with us. Delhi recorded 203 mm of rainfall in August alone and 383.2 mm for the total season. the bigger question still is for farmers committing suicides in Chattisgarh and Andhra. Cumulative forces like the recession and rainfall has put brakes in India's development this year. Despite, reports indicating total growth crossing 6% in the 2Q. India still is dependent on the monsoon rains and the lack of it has adversely impacted rice, sugar and cotton. Eventually leading to high prices of eatables. Can we build a mechanism to check mate low rainfall and of course it's after...

The IIT’s i.e Indian Institute of Technology are known for imparting quality and quantity education in engineering and technology. MBA (Masters in Business Administration) today can be done from the engineering and technology major IIT. A child today dreaming to make an inroad to the IIT, pulls up his socks right away and starts preparing from standard 8th and 9th itself. It takes an iit-ian more than four years to call himself a specialized ‘hardcore engineer’ from an institute of this standing. Approximately 50% of its students move ahead for a management degree from premier institutes of India. In today’s era of rat race and a desire of a higher level of achievement motivation is seen and is rising among Indian students. This kind of development is a threat for students coming from non- IIT background. The students of IIT after 4 years of rigorous studies can get easily through competitive exams and finally crack the CAT exams. They somehow stand as one of the road blocking agents ...
