Kash: A walk into Indian history

AREA AROUND THE TOMB AND THE MOSQUE Although Indian history is rich in itself, it needs to advertise at times because when time passes, historical monuments start to fade away. Considering this fact, I want to write about one of those sensational places in Delhi, which is known for its music, lights and  restaurants, not for its enormous historical monuments. HAUZ KHAS FORT AND THE LAKE THE BEAUTIFUL LAKE That was the tomb which grabbed my attention instantaneously, yet all I wanted to see was "THE LAKE". This colossal "Lake" or "Water Tank" was excavated by Alauddin Khalji, who ruled over Delhi through (1296-1316). The main purpose of this water tank was to supply water to the newly built Siri Fort. In fact, this Lake had become dammed in the region of Firuz Shah Tughlaq (1351-1388) that's why he re-excavated it.  GIGANTIC GATE OF TOMB CENOTAPH OF FIRUZ SHAH TUGHLAQ THE MOSQUE And then, I started walking...

I thought I'd kick off my blog's new post about Humayun's Tomb within last week but it couldn't happen since I had had a very hectic schedule. But now I am so much available to write more and more about my recent visit to this beautiful inimitable prototype of the historical monument.  I visited this place last to last week. I didn't have any plan to go out but one of my friends wanted to do some Photo Shoot and needed some historical backdrop. With the aim that he decided the venue. It was around 3 o'clock in the afternoon when we reached there. As it was my first visit I started enchanting to see the entrance gate. We started our work forthwith and I loved to do that. Well! I think even weather knew my mood and ought to this scenario a light current of air was started to tickle my cheeks and touch my hair smoothly. I just loved that blend of parched and muggy climate. I got so much appreciation from onlookers while doing my work. I felt like I...

The next question which strikes your mind is "Oh! God, now I need to go to 2 or 3 different places because I will not get this under one roof". But guys you're all wrong. Because t he panacea for your problem is   "Delhi Haat or Dilli Haat", one of the best places to visit in Delhi. Might be most of us visited "Mini-India" once thus far, but if you didn't you must be missing so many things. I had visited Pitampura Delhi Haat in 2011. It was a very humid day when I decided to go moreover it wasn't a good day to saunter because there was no such rush and fair to admire. But still, I managed to see some artefacts and some sandalwood carvings. You must be thinking what's the general knowledge in that. "Come on guys! Have some p...

Well, most of us know about banking headquarters and how to learn them. Today, I dedicate my post to those who are still dubious. First, let's have a concise about Nationalization of Bank. It had done by erstwhile Prime Minister "Indira Gandhi"  after the recommendation of Dr M. S. Swaminathan (Mankombu Sambasivan Swaminathan).  First 14 banks got nationalized on 19th July 1969 with a total deposit of 50 cr. above.     The second phase of nationalization consisted of  6 banks with 200 cr. and took place on 15th April 1980. Now we will discuss HQ and our general knowledge as much as possible. *Let's start with the huge numbers. If we talk about Mumbai so how many headquarters does it have? It's 6. ~~ State Bank of India (SBI) - Arundhati Bhattacharya (CMD) ~~ IDBI - M.S. Raghavan (CMD) ~~ Dena Bank - Ashwani Kumar (CMD) ~~ Union Bank of India - Arun Tiwari (CMD) ~~ Bank of India  - Smt V.R. Iyer (CMD) ~~ Central Bank Of India - ...

Today, I want to start with some fact relevant to my exam history. Every time I used to give exams I had developed one won't to forget about these sanctuaries name. My reaction (after seeing one "Sanctuary" question) - "Oh! Hell, I had learnt this (Wildlife sanctuary name) but now I forgot. What the heck! I gotta give up on this 1 number." Being the student of these kinda exams you all know how every single mark matters to get selected. I don't want you to follow my footsteps. For this, I am going to give you some learning hacks to boost and retain your general knowledge skills especially when it comes to memorizing the name of wildlife sanctuaries in India.
