The media has made loads of money on the stereo type of UP and Bihar. Media personalities like Rajdeep Sardesai only see Cow Lands over there. These are the people who feed the mis information into general public's mind. This is the misfortune of the country. I don't feel as much rattled when some one deep america says there only snakes and sadhus in India as I do when they say that there only doodh wallas in UP, Bihar, MP , Rajasthan

When I first saw him, he was a tiny-winy thing. He still is. Then, lights at his room must be off at sharp 10 PM. If you put them on, he would utter inaudible groans. But his roommate would do precisely that, in mischief. I haven't come across any male with such a photographic memory ( though I know two females) . TA101 assignments would not h

Ok, you say one only needs a bat and a ball to play cricket. Very True! For Hockey you need sticks, nets as well. That's cumbersome. But what stops you from seeing it? You need only a television or a ticket to the stadium. But still you, people don't go in those numbers. Both games are entertaining, but cricket is far more. Hockey hardly has six goals through out the match, while in Cricket you have a hit every ball <img src="../images/sm

There was a comment by greatuser regarding the bias towards Cricket in India. Other sports like Hockey are not given there due attention by media and sponsors. Here I would I say, as far as media is concerned, they would cover what people like to read. Same is the case of the sponsors. Sponsor won't do any cha

Yes, Alka - it really pains. I have been an avid hockey fan. Have followed it since school. The team has always been almost there, but not there enough. Last year, hopes were revived with their good display at tournies but bad luck hit. First Jugraj Singh got injured. It was double blow. We lost a g

There are two news items which provide contrasting case study on the state of organization of Cricket and Hockey in India. News items in question are a- India vs. Australia Test series venue and schedule have been just announced. b- India Hockey Coach, Rajinder Pal Singh has been sacked. You might wonder what is the contrast over here. L

Comment from Manish (Manke) on my previous post , reminded me of an incident relating the concept of Hindi in Mumbai. Most of you who have watched Old Hindi movies and not-so-old Hindi movies must be rememberi

At least that's the impression I got when I landed over here, five years back. All those Puneri junta over there, pardon me if you feel offended. I myself love Pune ( though not as much as Lucknow :-) ), but I was really shocked to see how little informed general public is over here about the rest of the country. I realized the reason much later.

Reflecting upon the developments shaping up since past few days, our irrepressible Neta brethren have seems to run into some trouble. Especially those, who have graduated into politics from the world of crime. When they are into crime , police is behind - trying catching them, while in politics they are both behind and front - saluting. But lately, there is

There is a story in TOI . This is about the discovery of diamonds in Uttar Pradesh. This in itself is an encouraging news for my home state, but that's not why this posting has been made. Here comes the more intriguing part. The discovery has been done by a guy called Anurag

Yesterday, when India played Srilanka, a lot of worth mentioning moments took place. Like Dravid hitting Zoyasa for a six, Kaif reverse sweeping Murli, Pathan hitting Murli out of the longest boundary etc. But the moment which stood out of all is this. Sehwag was ambling for a second run when Zoyasa threw a direct hit at the stumps. Now, even a Bat

They say if it ain't broke, break it! That's what happens with Gayab . It was such a fantastic concept, which could have been made into a rib tickler with a little imagination but ends up into pathetic hair puller, because of lack of it. Prawal Raman, delivers second dud in a row after Darna Marna Hai . Either, Ram Gopal Verma needs to change this stra

The day began badly for me. My landlady expired last night. Next, when I checked my bloggers site in the office, I came to know that my company has blocked the site www.blogger.com. I can't blog from there. It really pained me. That's why I am sulking since the morning. I have shifted <a href="http://manishchauhan.b

Certainly, Sehwag won't put his money where his mouth is. Neither will I. There are reasons behind it. Just have a glance at the following pattern. - "Given a chance, I would like to play in middle order in test matches. However, in one dayers, I would like to open." Considering this comment was made immediately after he completed his trip
