  • Book Sanitizing: A Wise Choice or Censorship?

    Stephen King once said, “Books are the perfect entertainment.” But many people think that though books are the best entertainer, they are not perfect. Now think with me for a moment, you are 7 and reading a book by Roald Dahl and he describes a group of children as “delinquents” and “idiots”. Would such words…

  • Bangalore School Trip!!!

    School is the place where people learn and grow throughout their lives. 12 years are put into school and in most of them you spend your time in a classroom in a building, you rarely get a chance to go out and see the world with your friends. My school, Podar International School gave my…

  • Mount Kinabalu – A Climb for the Ages

    What is the tallest mountain in Asia? Mount Everest. Ok, let’s try again. What is the tallest non-Himalayan Mountain in Asia? The answer is Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia.

  • 25th College Reunion – Dad and Me

  • Grit – The Major Story – Review

    Now, anyone can claim to being a heroic visionary but there are only few people who deserve that distinction. Adults have their role models and teens have them too. But it is children who really need good role models in their early years. So, VR Ferose, Sriram Jagannathan and Major DP Singh bring to you…

    It’s that month again, when you are nearing the year’s end, and something is just around the corner, that’s Christmas! Christmas is a very important to people in many ways.

  • Apps to the Rescue

People couldn’t work to make money to feed their families and people who fell ill wouldn’t be able to consult…
