Save Them

The first time I saw those fiery eyes as a kid , I was frightened yet fascinated by the beautiful,bold and graceful look of our national animal....its a pity that just 1411 are left in our country....which I just can't believe!!! I remember the first time I visited the Alipur zoo at Kolkata, I was overjoyed when I first saw the bold beast walking with his head held high behind the protected borderline..... I tried a lot mimicking a weird sound it made it was like “uuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmph” like a brachiosaurus dinosaur..... not at all like a growling sound but something else meaning a call or something......when I mimicked him exactly , to my astonishment,....he looked back and kept staring at me.....after a while his attention caught something else.....But I was not done yet.....I made that sound again.....he looked back again!!!wow!!!that was really cool....but I HAVE to say that he looked really powerful!!!ONE TIGHT SLAP could blow someone's head off!!!.. ..

Not very long back I visited the Nandan Kanan zoo also. Nandan Kanan acquired its first tiger in 1964 and the first open air tiger-enclosure now known as the 'Kanan' enclosure was constructed in 1967 when Kanan, a tigress from the adjoining Chandaka forests (now a sanctuary), jumped into one of the tiger enclosures and remained in captivity. She was in love with one of the captive tigers(Nandan)!!!(See tigers are romantic too!!!) She lived and died in the same enclosure after spending and seeing her cubs and cub’s cubs grow! Hence the name “Nandan-Kanan” Zoo!!Beautiful Isn't It?.........

But its sad that we are gradually losing them....1411 is a very very small number for a vast country like India.....What can we do to ensure that they do not become extinct in our country??....How can poaching be prevented??...Please lets join our hands together to reverse the process of tiger count reduction-lets help spread the word and populate our country's forests with our beloved national animal species once again as before...........

Why Tigers Matter

Why Should We Save The Tiger?

The Dustbin in The Station Waiting Room...

We were getting irritated by the news of the late coming train. Had to move in to the waiting room to sit and wait for the train.....

After few minutes of waiting got up and had pepsi my can from the nearby stall.....

Waiting resumed.......

I caught a glimpse of a dustbin being treated as a wash basin....with people not only thowing garbage but also spitting on it.........

Same was the case with remaining dustbins in the waiting room....

After few minutes i saw something which was nasty yet pitiable.......


A beggar of about 45-46 years of age came over to that bin and kept looking into it hoping for some tidbits of leftover food which was inside......

To my disgust the fellow put his hand completely inside the dustbin to take out his discovery...

That scene was really pitiful and heart touching.....Hunger is such a thing which can make someone do anything!.....

This incident made me sad for quite sometime......but need to accept.......this is the condition of today's beggar.......simply begging is not enough.....other options are required to survive......

So is there no difference between a human being and a stray dog.....this is really pathetic!......

A visit to Netaji's Home...

It was a memorable day.....a lifelong wish came true....

Moving inside the house was a great feeling....

The house has been renovated in the same way as Netaji's father Shri Janakinath Bose maintained it...

The best thing I liked there were the letters Netaji wrote to his parents......

Netaji wrote in english to his father and in bengali to his mother.....

Reading the initial lines of the letters reveal the sheer devotion Netaji had for his parents....

The Evolution of Evaluations...

Well.....its a new concept......breaking up 30 marks into bits of small tests for 2,3 or 5 marks........called as evaluations...happening anytime......................thus evolved evaluations..........

Sometimes in college we end up at writing exams without even knowing about them happening.........

They come in different forms:

Case studies:

Toughest and the most interesting part....Here we present real life incidents and situations in various firms and industries.....our objective is to understand the problem and come up with the most optimum solution........

Home Assignments:

We carry out tasks assigned to us for the respective subjects........these can surveys,written homework or some other creative work........

Tests:

These exams can be oral,written-multiple choice or objective/descriptive....

Projects:

Groupwise tasks are assigned for a particular piece of work......

Evolution of Evaluations is an ongoing process..........lets see what other forms they become in the future.....
