Blossom in the city... A true Floral Sculpture

A cloudy weather on a Sunday morning in Bangalore, a perfect weather to roam around the city, we planned to visit Lalbagh flower show which is a special floral exhibition organized by Govt of Karnataka for 2 special days, i.e. Independence day and Republic Day. They start one week in advance to attract more crowd.

We left our house around 11am Indian Standard Time, due to heavy traffic near the place, we preferred public transport then reached Lalbagh West Gate around 12.30 pm as we had to change 2 buses from my place. We saw a huge crowd in front of the gate, there were around 5-6 ticket counters for issuing the tickets made our day simple as we hardly stood in the queue to collect the tickets. The ticket was Rs.50 per head to enter the flower show, weekdays it was Rs.40 per head, the rate was reasonable. It was free for the school children.

We entered the gate, the park was filled with greenery and was crowed as expected. In the entrance we saw a green fountain, that made us feel relaxed, then we went inside, seeing colorful flowers on the side of the walking path and we saw the crowd capturing pictures of them and their loved ones.

Hack your exam papers

Exams are nightmare for students and will always be guessing what to study and what to write in exams. Most of the students are dissatisfied before and after writing their exams because they realize that they missed something to study or something to write in the paper.

Angad Nadkarni a student from BITS Pilani known to be a professional developer and hacker, created an app to make the exams look easy and simpler. The app name is Examify which tracks previous year exam papers and rate the exam paper questions and make it easy for the students to use.

An Unforgettable Journey...!!!

It was dark outside, sun was about to raise, it was Saturday morning 3'0 clock, awake for the first time so early, sipping a cup of coffee with my friends in my house, getting ready to leave to Madikeri, a place which is 280 Km from Bangalore, Karnataka, for 2 days on a weekend. We were 6 in number so we could fit in my friend's Scorpio, which makes us comfortable. We left at around 4.30 as we were waiting for others to join us. 

For a 2 day trip we had to carry a pretty amount of dresses and other stuffs like shaving sets, perfumes, air fresheners, soaps, brushes, hand-key, mouth fresheners, towels, comb, 2 pair of shoes etc. The vehicle was cool and very convenient to sit without any smell or odor as he usually used Ambi pur air fresheners which removes all bad odor and keeps your car fresh every time. This added extra freshness in the vehicle and all of us were very happy enjoy every bit of journey. Ambi pur doesn't make driver feel tired in his journey. 

We enjoyed the morning mist, we could see the sun raise we rarely see that in our life time. It was cold outside, so as inside the car. We reached Hassan around 9'o clock.

Is Bangalore really safe for WOMEN?


Bangalore, the IT capital of India also called as The Silicon Valley attracted many immigrants to occupy the beautiful Garden city. The Garden city is no more called so as the city has changed drastically in every aspect. Bangalore was known to be calm, protective, healthy, nature friendly etc. now after hearing to Mr. Franklin in TOI meet on Saturday – Mar-18th 2013, shocked to hear that Bangalore is the 2nd more unsafe cities in India. Though I hear many violent activities across the city, I never thought it would cross the limits when compared to other cities in India. We can say that present Bangalore is unsafe, not protective, violent, unhealthy, most polluted city in India.

Growth of Indian BPO’s is ahead of IT industry


In the recent times Indian Business Process Outsourcing(BPO) industry has shown a rapid growth compared to Indian Information Technology(IT) industry in terms of expansion, work-force etc. This rapid growth is driven by many factors such as size of work-force, lesser cost, less entry barriers and many more. Also Indian work-force has the capability to handle tasks and manage them well, and have high skills and comfort-ability with the language which made them favorites. Indian IT industry could not recover after the financial crisis occurred in the year 2008.
