Kargil war

Tiger Hill Originally uploaded by ankur186 This is a remembrance of our heroes and to salute them on the 10th anniversary of the Kargil war. It is only when you see this terrain you understand what they were up against. The hill slopes are barren, even a rock thrown from above can kill you. Nothing to hide or take shelter when climbing the hill. Nothing in the world like the Indian army which climbed these slopes without proper gear and in the hail of bullets to finally capture it.

Mayawati rules

No stay on installation of Mayawati, other Dalit leaders' statues at Noida: SC - India - The Times of India It does not matter if UP has roads, electricity or food for its people. But it should have mega monuments for its great leaders. Its great leaders that made this state even greater.

The Great Driving challenge

Mitsubishi is organising the great driving challenge where they will choose a couple to drive 3k km in 10 days starting and finishing in mumbai. Person needs to blog and upload pics for 10 days. Winner gets 10 lacs. I have created a profile for fun and just simply want to be part of this. I like the effective use of social media. I want to look forward to more such events where the car companies come forward to support car entusiasts. Atleast its much better than burning 10's of lacks in advertisements, that dont really get you much. Now the company is getting connected with the people that are interested in the cars and influence the market. Mitsubishi no doubt makes good sports car, but its just that after sales and high costs of spares that scares people. I hope they would also work on this front in the coming days. However people do vote for me . Feels good. I know the chances of coming in top 3 is almost impossible, still i want to have the fun of trying.

Why is traffic bad in delhi

Just saw the traffic mess pic in rinf road in delhi in the Todays TOI and could easily see why we have the mess - 1. Rickshaw on main road. 2. Buses not sticking to lanes. 3. Car drivers jumping lanes.
