AARAMBH HAI PRACHAND!

For once I wished somebody knocked my hostel room door and said " Sir Loondry", the fact that weekends are awesome, but when you look at the pile of clothes that needed some cleaning, you really start to realize that, weekends can actually make you feel grumpy.

Coming to the point, the college is on high spirits after the end of the prep sem, well for a certain few like me, retest(s) loom, but for most of the gyanis, things to look forward are the SAC elections.

SAC, the CCA wing of IIIT B, is in search for dynamic personalities who can transform and inspire the rest of students to showcase what they are really made of. For one reason, if i started showcasing my talent, then i guess a certain dance industry existing in Bombay would have a problem with me.

In the best interests of the students, I would personally like to recommend a certain Jatin Chaudhary. Many would ask on why a vote should be directed on someone without knowing about an individual's caliber towards decision making and leadership qualities. Many remained puzzled on who would be the ideal candidate, and started browsing every face and ask, is he/she the one?

Few individuals came to a conclusion that it is important to search for the candidates, a special body was needed which can identify the chosen ones, so that the responsibility of SAC falls in good hands.

The need for a dynamic leader looked imminent, the fellowship of the individuals was named as Nawab Mukti Morcha whose only goal was to search for a leader. The fellowship spent a lot of time thinking in the loo on who would actually lead by example, and one fine thursday morning, all the committee members had come up with one name, none other than, our dada, Jatin Chaudhary.


On friday night, NMM proudly announced Jatin as the party leader, the unofficial statistics confirmed that Jatin has a stiff competition to face, but we were confident and we always cheered, "YES...HE CAN!".

NMM party workers welcome everyone to join them in their occasional slogan chants

"Nawab mukti morcha...aaahooo...aaahooo(300 style)"

Jatin's and NMM's party pillars
  1. Banish the groupism based on regional backgrounds
  2. Prateek and Vikas Chacha's music classes for all
  3. Birthday cakes are for eating, holi colors are for playing
  4. No obscure* display pics on fb/twitter/myspace/orkut
  5. Ban on aandu pandu status updates like "going to take a crap" or "going to sleep" on social networking media
* - (meaning no Sheila, sachin, rajni kanth, kung fu panda, rahul gandhi, balakrishna, Inspector Daya, ACP Pradyumn ,etc)



NMM followers now know who deserves a place in SAC, and now its time for you to decide if Jatin deserves a spot or not, I leave the decision to you!

In the end, I leave you with your ideal candidate Jatin, feel free to stop and interact with him, SAC member or not, he is always a leader and we love our dada.



P.S: Doing laundry on sunday is a very bad idea!

Gangs of IIIT Bangalore - Part 1

My first ever post from my new base and it has nothing to do about how my past 3 weeks went here at IIIT Bangalore.

Ever been in a situation where you stand with your mouth wide open and your insides scream "WTF"?

The above line quite sums it up on my stay so far here at IIIT Bangalore.

Enough on the bad stuff, coming to the good stuff, it is the people around you that make this place quite special. Agreed that it is still very early and judging is not going to help anyone, but so what, at least I am quite content with the company I have here, and I guess most of you wouldbe feeling quite same.

Talking about an open secret within the premises, there are two major gangs operating

The Northies

  • Always seen in smaller groups, but found at every corner of the campus
  • Known for their “bade dil wala” attitude
  • Always crib about missing momos or parathey wali galli in chandini chowk
  • Dal chawal and achaar is a must for every meal
  • Prefer samosa for breakfast over other breakfast options

The Southies

  • Always flock together
  • Known for their "always there to help!" attitude
  • Tend to gulp down a lot of filter kaapi
  • No sambar, no meals!
  • Prefer Masala Dosa for breakfast over other breakfast options

Still a long way to go and a lot many to meet, which is good because every person is different in their own ways.

P.S - No offense intended guys, just an observation. More to come soon, this time covering the central, western and eastern gangs, though a minority, but always with a shout!
