Raining Blood
It was a bloody monday as the city was rocked in its entirety by two powerful blasts that ripped it apart. One of the blasts happened at 12:35 p.m. at Zhaveri Bazaar and the other shook the Gateway of India a half hour later. The atmosphere was of gloom as the clouds, yet again, braced …
Independence Rock XVIII
“Rock in Bombay or should I say India has been the bastion of the society branded mavericks.Digression:But I would beg to differ on this viewpoint. Check “”Rock is Dead””. 18 years back in time, Independence Rock (I-Rock) was started with a few oganizers coming together. And it has now snowballed into an event that people …
Financial Story of India’s Independence
“This is an article taken from the very famous TOI column “”Swaminomics””. I was surfing the web when I came across this website: www.swaminomics.org. And he article given below is truly significant.

Monsoon Trekking
Karnala was the place. Located at a few kilometers from Panvel, New Bombay. There were 8 souls frustrated with engineering and we decided to end it all with a nice monsoon trek. We started off at 6:30 am in the morning and half of us were dragged out of the bed by those lousy cellphone …

There was a factor of humanity …
