Dont study today!

Today is Saraswathi pooja or the day of the year when Godess of education Saraswathy audits and inspects the progress made by every student and blesses everyone to have a good year ahead.

This is a part of the Indian tradition and it has been religiously followed by most of the people who believe in Hinduism.

But believe it or not, when all government institutions like banks had holiday, NITT worked!
We had to go to class!

The funniest part is that last year even the college records and stuf were presented for this pooja but this time they have decided to work harder than seek blessing by not working!
Lage raho NITT!!!

THE END OF AN ERA!

Revolution is in the blood of the people of West Bengal. Kerala and WB are the only Indian states where strikes, bandh and hartals are still so frequent occurrences. In that context, I find there is a lot common to these two places. Another thing i admire from this place is Sourav Ganguly.

If there is someone who has dramatically changed the way Indian cricket, it is dada. In an advertisement in yesterday's newspaper i saw RBS tell TENDULKAR, its brand ambassador, to be the one who changed the way the game is played. true! but if there is any mention of who changed the face of Indian cricket and made its presence felt strongly it was Ganguly. Tendulkar was a failure when given this task!

As a skipper, he did the magnificent task of identifying the best talent and provide them the platform. All the youngsters of today's team were his picks. And after Kapil he is the one who has got India closest to the World Cup.

In spite of all the things, he was dropped, insulted, mocked but like a phoenix, true to his style, he arouse and made a grand re-entry into the test team.
these days he is being monitored and analysed every match, every innings.
Sure its disgusting to play under such conditions,and he's gonna quit.

Ah! when has the BCCI ever bothered. They severed ties with Kapil Dev after making him cry in public at the Karan Thapar show and insulting him in different ways. Now with Ganguly they threw him in and out of the team until he has come up to a conclusion that its better getting out before the board goes even harsh!

Adieu Ganguly. We will miss your class and arrogance that define you and your boys!
Indian team will never be the same without the PRINCE.
