Today's topic is Calcutta.

In familiar names,
Calls me close in the midst of anonymous crowd
On an intense, familiar bent,
I fall back on its stones."

Delhi-India gate
.Delhi's India Gate is one of the heritage place in India ......I still miss this place as i spent a lot of time here having fun v my cousins .I joined my college of interior designing and had fun learning lot of things .I remember we used to go to this beautiful and historical place v our friends and spent quality time watching children ,people,hawkers walking around.I remember how cold it is in winters and how hot n humid it is in summers,but i still enjoyed a lot doing shopping at Lajpat nagar,palika bazar,chandni chowk.......and h can i forget yummy snacks like gol -gappey,aloo chat,dahi bhalley,choley bhaturey,faluda kulfi...yummmmmmm.
I love this place but as far as safety of women is consider this place is really not safe..that is really really sad.......I was doing job in Delhi at a place called Vivek vihar ,my timings were from 2pm to 8pm......but had a horrific incidence one day while returning back home so decided to quit tht job which i dint want to do but because of the incidence i had to quit.
Sheila dikshit has done so much for infrastructure of this place but it is still a hub of crime against women......which is pathetic ,shameful and Sad.

Today's topic is Indian Police.
About 150 years ago, the Indian Police Act (IPA) was passed by the British Parliament. Lets hope with the ongoing reforms, the police forces across India ensure the proper rule of law and improve security across the country.

The Taxicab Incident
This is known as the taxicab incident. G H Hardy, Ramanujan's mentor/friend at Cambridge, visited him at the hospital and the rest of the story is in the picture above.
Ramanujan's intellect was so sharp even in sickness - almost on his deathbed.
On hearing this, John E Littlewood is said to have remarked, "Every positive integer is one of Ramanujan's personal friends."
The name of Robert Kanigel's book on Ramanujan is "The Man Who Knew Infinity".
