Tragic death of 5 in the flood of Pali Rajasthan
11 hours of wait and watch show of death. 100s of viewers, 5 lifes were on bait and not even a single life got saved.
In the Khari river of Pali, Rajasthan, 5 people tried to cross the bridge on Indica car, but water got overflowed and high speed flood water trapped them all. 100s of people gathered near to river. They were watching them trying to survive in between the river. Very soon local police officials, army even the environment minister of Rajasthan was there on that tragic place. According to Environment Minister Dave they tried very hard to get those people out of that river. The victims were holding just one rope of bridge. They all came on the roof of car, were waiving their hands for help, they were crying. And one by one they became the victim of flood water. This complete episode runs for about 11 hours.
How tragic was the situation. Government had more then 10 hours to save the life of 5 common people. Only one crain or some divers were not the solution out there to pull them out of such a high tide water. I cant imagine that even one helicopter was not available to rescue them. In todays high-tech life, where India is able to compete with worlds power, doesn’t have any facility to rescue people out of flooded river that’s too when they have plenty of time. I ask a question if instead of those common guys some minister would have been stuck out there, were the complete system would let him go like those 5 innocent people.
On top of that just see how ministers are reacting on this tragic events. Environment Minister said police and local people ask those victims not to cross river as its risky. I agree they took the wrong step but that doesn’t means their life is not worthy enough to call emergency situation type rescue like chopper or some experts. Chief Minister of Rajasthan Vasundhara Raje Scindia saying that they have done the best. She stated that should a minister jump in such a high tide water to rescue them. Madam nobody is asking you to jump in water but at least things should be taken seriously.

How can this be possible? I got a phone call from my uncle yesterday that flood alert has been declared by the local authorities in Bhilwara, Rajasthan. I have spend almost my entire childhood in Bhilwara and never heard of this news before. The Meja Dam is overflowing with 26 feets of water and if it keeps on raining like this, then the dam will have to discharge the water in to the Kothari river which will overflow and there will be a danger of the Old Bhilwara area getting submerged into the water. Strange!!!
This year actually, Rajasthan got good
Are Gurgaon and Delhi prepared for flood?
I was on a Business promotion trip in Delhi. I just had to visit 3 places, Okhla Industrial Area, Kalka Ji and Mahipalpur. It was rainy weather in the city right from the morning and it started raining be afternoon.
After the rain started I had completed the Okhla’s work, but I took me 2 hours to reach Kalkaji from Okhla which is merely 10 Km from Okhla. From Okhla I took a straight root Mahipalpur via R K Puram and domestic airport. It took me 3 hours from R K Puram to the
I have been traveling frequently to Rajasthan because of my business trips, income tax assessments, handicrafts, Delicious Rajasthani cuisines and especially, my family and in laws. On the way, there are approx 10 Reliance petrol pumps out of which 5 have the A1 Plaza.
On the way to Rajasthan 4 Reliance Pumps are not operational. I have noticed that the price of fuel at these petrol pumps is 2 – 3 Rs more than the others in Rajasthan. Also as per the owners of these pumps, Reliance is exporting most of the fuel because of profits. So the operational petrol pumps
I have spent most of my life in Rajasthan, me and my family shifted to Haryana because of my fathers business. Haryana has always proved to be a better place than Rajasthan in all aspects but not in case of the cuisines.

Shiney Ahuja is an NRI who returns to India to complete a business project along with his wife (Vidya Balan). Along the shores of Banaras stays his family which has (read had) been ruling the city since long. The newly married couple decides to live in the royal Haveli which was once abandoned after it was "haunted" by spirit of a dancer which lead to a series of tragic events thereafter.
Without the knowledge of the whole family, Vidya Balan unlocks the haunted room, thereby "freeing" the spirit. A series of accidents and mishaps takes place. Acharya Yagya Prakash

Well, this was the place I actually like on the Mirza Ismail (M I) Road at Jaipur. Not because it has the best quality products, but because of the competitive prices as compared to the other Government Emporiums. I have visited the Rajasthali at the Baba Kharag Singh Marg to Connaught Place at Delhi and its condition is really miserable.
Jaipur’s Rajasthali has got the best variety of crafts at good prices, ofcourse the prices are not very low, but its Ok. I saw a Wooden Dining table set with complete work for 8 people over there in 65000 bucks, INR
