“Nations created on the basis of faith can never last long. There will be instant euphoria.. but eventually the nation created on the basis of respect for all faiths is the one which will live many centuries. For me, the choice is India.”

Happy Independence Day!

On India’s 80th #IndependenceDay, it’s a good time to remember what a young Capt (later Maj Gen) SM Hasnain said when his British CO asked him at Partition which nation he would choose

Would like to appreciate Anil Kumar ji. If there is a six star rating, I would give it.

On very rainy day in Mumbai, he was exceptionally helpful and courteous; even offered his own umbrella if I needed it.

When there is a great office facility e.g. premium beverage dispenser; is it a feature or a bug?

As my friend @ganglee would say: “It depends” :)

I visited the #MahaKumbh2025 and had the Shahi Snan on the Mouni Amavasya.

Here are some tips and observations that may help those planning a trip

1. Crowds are mind boggling but well behaved for the most part.

The locals are amazing 🤩. This is the welcome we saw 🙏🏼

At times, there is quite a bit of fog and visibility in some places is limited 3-4 feet.

Some guests at the Hotel were saying Police are not allowing Sangam snan under such conditions.

This is another reason to provision for extra time in your Prayagraj trip.
