A warm welcome to you aboard Air India! On popular demand, from November 21 we shall be increasing the frequency of flights between Delhi and San Francisco from thrice a week to six times a week. Moreover, from December 1, we shall be flying direct between Delhi and Madrid thrice a week, thereby, fulfilling a long-felt need.

On the domestic front, while we have introduced a number of flights, the main push shall begin from January/February onwards when we shall start adding flights in substantial numbers. In the interim, however, limited expansion shall continue. For example, flights from Kolkata to Ranchi from November 1, Delhi to Kanpur to Allahabad from December 3, Delhi to Bhatinda from December 4, and a few more. These flights to new destinations also convey our commitment towards connecting India and making flying accessible.

While we still have a long way to go, the very fact that we have been able to post operating profits in the last fiscal is a pointer towards the efforts being undertaken for improving our services and operations. We remain committed to improving our services and also our reach. In 2017, we plan to connect around five to six new international destinations as well as many new flights between metros and also tier-2 and tier-3 cities.

Recently, we launched a new mobile app for Air India customers. We hope that you shall find this app extremely useful and rewarding. Do let us know how you feel about it so that if required, we can improve it further. Within the next two months, we also expect to bring about quantum improvements in the Air India website.

Our beloved Maharajah is soaring the highest in the world, making us proud, once again. Flying between Delhi and San Francisco, Air India has created a new record, becoming the first airline globally to fly the longest distance in the shortest time. On our cover, we celebrate the feat! And there is a lot more to celebrate in the November issue of Shubh Yatra.

This year, when French musician and composer Davi Sicard flies back to his native land, the remote island of La Réunion, he will carry with him the sounds of Rajasthan. Euphoric after a performance with Rajasthani folk musicians Roshan, Kasam, Latif and Jasse Khan at a pre-Diwali celebration at Delhi's Taj Mahal Hotel, Sicard said he was planning more collaborations with the artistes. They had recently met during a cultural festival in the desert state. We find out how these festivals are drawing artistes and audiences alike from across the world and aiding the revival of folk arts.

Another revival story we bring to you is of traditional wedding saris that are getting a new lease of life, as designers encourage weavers to give heritage a unique, user-friendly twist. Also, criss-cross the country with us as we trace the flavours of biryani and catch a glimpse of the rare snow leopard in Ladakh! Let's cheer the new air about India!

On the Cover Quaint cable cars, hairpin bends, crooked Victorian houses, windsculpted treetops, fog tumbling over the Golden Gate Bridge and the permanent permission to be outlandish... that's the city of San Francisco!

The hometown of hippies, the City by the Bay lost almost everything in earthquakes and the dot com bust, except its feisty spirit. This is the place where dreams come true and nature and man are comrades. As Air India increases the frequency of its flights to this spirited city, wear your dancing shoes and hit its streets with us!

Air India has been adding new domestic and international destinations to its network. Under the ‘Connecting India’ programme Air India is committed to bring cities closer across the country. We have increased the frequency on our HyderabadVijayawada-Visakhapatnam route from five to six flights a week from August 15, 2016. This route is operated by our new 70-seater ATR-72 600 aircraft.

On international sector, from December we are introducing thrice-a-week flight between Delhi-Madrid

by Boeing 787 Dreamliner. We are also increasing the frequency on the Delhi- San Francisco sector to six days a week except Tuesday, starting from November 21, 2016. A recently introduced flight between Ahmedabad and Newark via London operates thrice a week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays with B787 Dreamliner aircraft.

Ashwani Lohani Air India CMD

Ashwani Lohani, CMD of Air India, recently received the Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Memorial Award for ‘Innovation in Governance’ for his exemplary work in infrastructure and services. The ceremony was organised in New Delhi by the Kalam Centre, to honour individuals and institutions for their exemplary work in improving governance and delivering value to citizens. An international summit on innovation in governance was also conducted at the function. “It is an honour to receive this award, not because it recognises my involvement in the betterment of the country but also because I have had the good fortune of meeting Dr Kalam,” said the CMD. Highlighting the 84 glorious years of India’s official carrier, he said that the first Air India aircraft took flight in 1932 and its then owner, JRD Tata, flew the first single-engine De Havilland Puss Moth from Karachi to the Juhu aerodrome and on to Chennai. “To celebrate this, we have started a new flight to San Francisco that will go around the world,” he added.

Neelam Pratap Rudy, vice-president, Women in Aviation International, India chapter, said, “Celebrating women in aviation will promote their empowerment in the industry. Personal inspiration by successful women aviators as both role models and mentors can be instrumental in motivation. With strong aviation expansion plans in India, I foresee women conquering aviation technology and being agents of change in the industry.”

He leads from the front, serving innovative and delicious meals on board flights from Kolkata to metros and international destinations. His variations in menu selection during summer and winter, as well as for the special cuisine served during Durga Puja or Bengali New Year, are appreciated by passengers and recognised by the media, alike. Whether it is handling special flights or liasoning with publications for in-flight reading material, Chatterjee is always present with a never-say-die attitude!

Air India achievement

NEW RECORD in the skies Air India flies to San Francisco and back on a record-breaking flight

The new route shall reap dual benefits to Air India as it will help us save fuel costs and will also cut the time taken to travel by nearly 90 minutes Ashwani Lohani Air India CMD

On October 15, 1932, Air India (then known as Tata Airlines) took flight for the first time. It has been 84 years since, and on the same date this year, India’s national carrier set a new record with a new flight on the Delhi-San Francisco-Delhi sector. With this flight, Air India became the first airline to go around the world when it flew over the Pacific Ocean from Delhi to San Francisco, and over the Atlantic Ocean on its way back to the national capital. The total time included flying over water bodies for almost seven-and-a-half hours, with no land in sight – a challenging task, indeed.

This flight notched up some more records too. It covered the longest distance in the shortest time in the history of commercial aviation: a distance of 15,000 km covered in just 14.5 hours (15 hours on the return flight, from San Francisco-Delhi).

“The predicted flight time to San Francisco was 14 hours and 45 minutes but we reached the

26 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016

shubh-yatra.in

San Francisco airport before that. The achievement is overwhelming,” said Rajneesh Sharma, captain of the flight.

What was also noteworthy was that this incredible initiative helped in reducing fuel consumption of the flight by almost 13 tonnes, as the new route has the additional advantage of very good tailwinds. In addition, overflying charges across countries were reduced as the aircraft flew over only five countries as compared to 13 in the route taken previously.

Congratulating the crew of this record-breaking flight, Ashwani Lohani, CMD, Air India, said, “It was an incredible feat”. He added, “This is another feather in Air India’s cap. I would like to congratulate each and every Air Indian for this historical feat. The new route shall reap dual benefits, as it will not only help us save fuel costs but will also cut the travel time of passengers by

Air India achievement

nearly 90 minutes. With this flight, Air India has set several records and we are proud of our achievements.”

I warmly extend my heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to the Maharajah.

I wish the sun never sets on his exciting travels.

Interestingly, the flight took off from Delhi on October 15 and during its journey, crossed the International Dateline.

“As we crossed the Dateline, we went back in time by three hours and celebrated the 84th anniversary all over again! It was a momentous feeling on board!” Sharma added. Depending upon the weather conditions, the airline hopes to continue on this flight path on the route for the next six months, with the captain confident that they will be able to break more records on every trip!

things you did not know about air india

Sharon Lowen, dancer

The first Air India flight (an erstwhile venture of the TATA group, founded

by JRD Tata) flew from Karachi to Mumbai on October15, 1932.

On June 11, 1962, Air India became the world’s first all-jet airline. It also garnered the first only jet-fleet in the world, much before any of its competitors.

In 1967, Air India commissioned the world-famous Surrealist artist Salvador Dali to design an ashtray for their flights, replicas of which were given away as gifts to some of the airline’s first-class passengers.

I have always enjoyed travelling Air India and I wish the Maharajah all the very best for its present and future endeavours.

The first time I laid my eyes on an aircraft and boarded one was an Air India Boeing 747. My heartiest congratulations to Air India.

Mr Baozi, Lower Parel, Mumbai The restaurant Mr Baozi might be located at Kamala Mills, Lower Parel, Mumbai, but inside, it is a mini replica of a bylane in Kyoto, Japan. A brainchild of the owners of the Bar Stock Exchange and chefs Kshama Prabhu and Gaurrav Gidwani, it is a replica of an old-world Japanese opium den with mood lighting and wooden furniture.

The cuisine here is quintessentially South East Asian and, no, it is not just limited to coconut and curries. A section in the menu is true to the name of the restaurant - bringing quite a variety of baos to the table, the signatures being the slow-roasted chicken​bao, Mr Baozi ​lamb bao and ​ confit mushroom and chilli oil​bao. While the presentation is experimental and quirky, the dishes retain the authentic flavours. The Japanese style chicken wings and the grilled salmon with orange and light soya are a must try!

Mr Baozi makes for an ideal weekend dinner place to enjoy with a close bunch. ​You will be surprised by their molecular cocktails such as Ancient Life - a smoky twist to gin - and orange juice, chamomile and rosemary, created by the international bartenders, as well as an uber-impressive wine cellar.

AN ICON, REBORN The Royal Opera House, an iconic part of Mumbai’s culture circuit, has been restored. As it reopens after 23 years, well-known personalities share with us their excitement

To regulars on the Mumbai performing arts circuit, the Royal Opera House is a landmark building. Inaugurated in 1911 by King George V, it has played host to some memorable performances over the years, from artistes such as Bal Gandharv, Prithviraj Kapoor and Deenanath Mangeshkar.

Over the years, falling patronage and disuse had it in a rather unimpressive state; thankfully, though, the efforts of the royal family of Gondal – owners of the Opera House – along with conservation architect Abha Narain Lambah and others should soon see the Royal Opera House regain its glory.

Lamenting the lack of performance venues for new theatre groups, experimental theatre and experimental film screening, actor and theatre personality Atul Kulkarni sees benefits for theatre in the reopening of the Opera House. “This will boost young theatre groups, especially in that part of town [Charni Road, near Girgaum Chowpatti]”, he says.

He also feels that considering how a lot of heritage monuments tend to fall into disrepair, the restoration of the building would be significant. “This would be a good opportunity to correct ourselves and make a historical place available again,” he adds.

Ad man Prahlad Kakar, too, is quite pleased, given he last visited the Opera House more than a decade ago for a fashion show! “It is an iconic building in Mumbai, and will eventually become the true gateway to the culture and the arts of India,” says Kakar.

He loves the multiple uses the venue can be put to – plays, film screenings, festivals, musical performances and fashion shows – while affording fantastic views and excellent seating and acoustics. He also believes it will stand apart from other venues, as “no other city [in India] has an opera house”.

Mohammad Ali Baig, Hyderabad-based theatre artiste and founder of the iconic Qadir Ali Baig Theatre Festival, believes the reopening of the Opera House will boost performing arts in the country. “This was the only venue in India that was close to true European theatre, and now that it’s reopening, it will open up a lot of opportunities for artistes,” he concludes.

an era of darkness: the british empire in India

By Shashi Tharoor, Rupa Publications, 360 pages, `699

Originating from a 2015 Oxford Union speech by the author, the book is a comprehensive look at various aspects of how British rule was harmful for India, including how some supposed benefits - language, tea and cricket - served the colonisers’ interests. Tharoor’s impeccable research, acuity and wit make this an excellent read.

By Debashis Chatterjee, Westland Books, 139 pages, `175

By Siddharth Chowdhury, Picador India, 448 pages, `499

By Vijay Lokapally, Bloomsbury India, 216 pages, `399

Based on the story of Arjuna in the Mahabharata, the book comprises a creative reimagination of the tale, with nine precious lessons mined from the epic.

Seeking to make the reader a hero in his/her own life with inspiration from Arjuna’s concentration and clarity, this blend of management and mythology is worth turning the pages over for.

This book is an anthology of the first three works of the author. The depiction of life as set in the gritty cities of Bihar and in the campuses of the Delhi University serves up the languid, unhurried flavour of small-town life as well as a look at the inner turmoil of the Indian middle class. The quirky, simple style with a dose of humour make for a good read.

Virender Sehwag said of Kohli: “...one of the most dangerous batsmen in the world.” With little-known stories narrated by Kohli’s fellow players, coaches and friends, the book recounts his rapid rise to stardom. Embellished with an in-depth career fact file and exclusive photographs, this is something no cricket fan should miss.

The thrill of flying home on Air India is something I will never forget. The hostesses in their saris, the lilt of their English, the welcoming aroma of Indian cuisine ... on Air-India I feel like I am home before I have even reached there.

52 I Shubh Yatra I NOvember 2016

Hop on to a clanging cable car for a ride to attractions such as Fisherman’s Wharf and Ghirardelli Square. The iconic cable cars afford spectacular views of neighbourhoods such as Nob Hill, once home to the city’s richest residents, and sweeping views of the Bay as well as the fortress of Alcatraz. The handful of cable cars that now remain have been declared a historic monument and the Powell-Mason and Powell-Hyde lines are the most charming routes.

Our first stop is the lively Fisherman’s Wharf. We browse the lines of stands, where vendors hawk giant-sized crabs that boil in bubbling cauldrons.

Haunting aromas waft from seafood restaurants clustered along the historic waterfront, as they get ready for a new day. Remember to sample freshly baked sourdough bread, a local speciality, with your morning tea or coffee.

Nearby is Pier 39, with hundreds of shops, restaurants and other attractions. A portly Italian man belts out arias from popular operas, and not too far away a flautist and guitarist entertain excited tourists. Children and adults ride a brightlylit carousel and sea lions lounge by the bay while a local with a placard that reads “Why lie? I need a dollar for a beer” brushes past us.

Located at the end of Fisherman’s Wharf is Ghirardelli Square. Once the site of a large chocolate factory, it is today famed for the Ghirardelli chocolate store and surrounded by shops, galleries and restaurants in restored industrial-era buildings. If you have the time, the Maritime Museum and Aquatic Park are worth a look-see too. Or, take a Segway waterfront tour and cruise around Fisherman’s Wharf and its many attractions.

Hop on to a cable car (Powell-Hyde line), disembark at the top of Hyde Street and walk down the steps of Lombard Street, billed as “America’s crookedest”. Lined with beautiful Victorian mansions, it has hairpin bends that

make it easier for cars to negotiate the incredibly steep incline.

Bring down the curtain at the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, accessible by bus. The bridge is visible from many vantage points in the city, a shimmering deep-burnt sienna or reddish brown, depending on the light. Completed in 1937, it is not the longest but certainly one of the most beautiful suspension bridges in the world.

We embark upon a sunset cruise that sails past Alcatraz Island and goes under the bridge as well. The silvery Oakland Bay Bridge, one of the world’s longest, is visible in the distance.

Eating out is a pleasure in food-obsessed San Francisco, where you can dine at no-frills eateries or gourmet outposts manned by young, creative chefs.

City of the gods Pushkar is not all about the famous lake and the fair but also about temples and heritage palaces

T

he Pushkar Camel Fair or Pushkar Mela, as it is locally known, is an annual five-day camel and livestock fair held in the town of Pushkar between the months of October and November. It is also one of the world’s largest camel fairs and has become an important tourist attraction, too. Recently, the fair has also included an exhibition cricket match between the local Pushkar Club and foreign tourists.

EXPLORING PUSHKAR Pushkar is one of the oldest cities in India. Located to the northwest of Ajmer, the tranquil city is a favoured destination for tourists and devotees flocking to Rajasthan. Situated at a height of 510 metres, it is surrounded by hillocks on three sides. The Nag Pahar, locally called Snake Mountain, forms a natural border between Ajmer and Pushkar. Known

as ‘the rose garden of Rajasthan’, the essence of the famous Pushkar rose is exported all over the world. Along with an interesting mythological history, a legacy of timeless architectural heritage makes the city a fascinating one. Legend has it, Lord Brahma dropped a lotus to the ground, leading to the creation of a lake.

He then decided to name the place after the flower, and thus the name, Pushkar.

PUSHKAR LAKE According to Hindu scriptures, the sacred Pushkar Lake is described as Tirtha Raj, the king of all pilgrimage sites. No pilgrimage is considered to be complete without a dip in the holy Pushkar Lake. It is surrounded by 52 bathing ghats and over 400 temples.

BRAHMA TEMPLE Nestled in the picturesque Pushkar

valley beyond the Nangaparvat and Anasagar Lake, this temple is special as it is the only temple in the world dedicated to Lord Brahma. Built with marble and decorated with silver coins, it can be identified by its red spire and the image of a swan (considered sacred to Lord Brahma). The chaturmukhi (four faced) idol of Lord Brahma is housed in the inner sanctum. A marble statue of the Sun God stands sentinel at the temple. Interestingly, while all the gods are shown bare-footed, Surya is shown wearing ancient warrior boots.

GURUDWARA SINGH SABHA Situated in the eastern part of the city, the gurudwara was built in the beginning of the 19th century to commemorate the visits of the first and the tenth guru - Guru Nanak Dev and Guru Govind Singhji.

VARAHA TEMPLE Varaha temple is the largest and the most ancient temple of Pushkar. Constructed by the 12th century ruler King Anaji Chauhan, this temple is dedicated to the third incarnation of Lord Vishnu as a wild boar. Legend has it that Varaha rescued the earth from depth of the primeval water, where it was dragged down by a demon.

SAVITRI TEMPLE Dedicated to Lord Brahma’s first wife, Goddess Savitri, this temple is situated on a hillock right behind the Brahma temple.

While climbing the long series of steps leading to the temple, one can catch a panoramic view of the lake.

This year, Pushkar Mela will be organised from November 8 to 14.

Other than camel cart rides, enjoy hot air ballooning, quad bike racing, horse safaris and an eclectic cultural show

temple is believed to provide respite to followers from their cardinal sins. The temple is like a pearl in the crown of the city. Having a great spiritual importance as well as boasting a splendid architecture, the Pap Mochini temple is one of the most popular temples in Rajasthan.

ATMATESHWAR TEMPLE This beautiful 12th century temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The intricate Hemadpanti architectural style carvings give this temple a magnificent appearance.

Thousands of devotees come here to offer prayers during Shivaratri.

MAN MAHAL Built as a guest house of Raja Man Singh I, the palace is a popular tourist attraction.

The Rajasthani architecture from the royal era adorning the palace is a visual treat.

It has now been converted into a heritage hotel, the RTDC Hotel Sarovar.

HOW TO REACH Sanganer Airport in Jaipur is the nearest (146 km) Pushkar is well connected to the national highways of Rajasthan.

Cultural festivals in Rajasthan are creating employment opportunities, shattering age-old social barriers, providing international exposure to local folk artistes and reviving their art, says Karan Bhardwaj Raju Harijan was leading an obscure life as an insignificant cobbler in the Momasar village of Rajasthan till 2013, when he participated in a local cultural festival.

His dancing skills stunned fellow residents of Momasar.

Besides being great at his job, this man is also a terrific performer of kachhi ghodi, a folk dance. Today, he is an artiste appreciated globally for his efforts to restore the dying dance form. In his village, he is a celebrity, with social barriers of caste and creed forgotten. But Harijan is not alone. He is just one of the many local artistes who have shot to fame with the rising number of cultural festivals being organised in Rajasthan.

Rajasthan has always been popular among tourists for its desert, camels, colours and its culture. But it is only in the past decade that the state’s folk music and

64 I Shubh Yatra I NOVEMBER 2016

dance forms have been recognised for their uniqueness and have found a niche in the Indian music scene.

Before that, all genres - from diverse communities such as Langas, Saperas (popularly called Kalbelia dancers), Bhopas, Jogis, Manganiyars, Kamad and various tribal groups - were unceremoniously clubbed together as Rajasthani music.

The region saw rich patronage of folk music and dance from kings until the princely era ended. In modern times, with hardly any takers, these musical and folk communities began to give up their heritage and resorted to other means of livelihood. However, thanks to cultural festivals, that is changing. “The biggest contribution of music festivals is that it lends an identity to individual players and groups among communities,”

says Vinod Joshi, regional director with Jaipur Virasat Foundation (JVF) and also the showman of the Shekhawati Utsav, a music festival organised by the state department of tourism in the Shekhawat region.

Joshi emphasises JVF’s strenuous work of mapping hidden talent in the dunes and presenting it to the world.

“When we discovered these artistes, we found that their music has a lot of relevance to local regions and communities, their conditions, their lands, standard of living and social background. So it was important for us to not only pass on traditions from one generation to another but also establish to a sense of pride among the youth about their heritage,” he says.

The success of JVF’s initiatives comes from the fact that some of their festivals, including the Shekhawati Utsav, are today funded by locals, who now consider these festivals as badges of honour.

STAR PERFORMER

A mother of nine, the 52-year-old folk singer from the Mandawa village of Rajasthan became a national rage after recording the track Kattey with rapper Hard Kaur and musician Ram Sampath at MTV Coke Studio.

“I introduced Jeff and Bobby [both Australian] to Asin and Bhungar [Rajasthani], which was the beginning of a remarkable collaboration that has since been presented at numerous cities and festivals in Australia on multiple tours, besides Celtic Connections in Glasgow,

Rajasthan also hosts international festivals such as the World Sacred Spirit Festival (in February) and the Flamenco and Gypsy Festival (in April).

EXCHANGE OF CULTURE

At the Jodhpur Gypsy and Flamenco festival, a natural bond can be seen between gypsies and the Kalbelia community. “We share similar roots. Gypsies were jogis in India who wandered from place to place to entertain people. We, as Kalbelias, or snake charmers, are also travellers. When I visited Spain last year, everybody liked my performance. I felt no different there,” says Asha Sapera, a regular at Spanish festivals.

However, when it comes to adapting and absorbing music from other territories, nothing can beat the Manganiyars. Their youth is constantly evolving and experimenting with new forms of music. “We cannot play

something that entertained people 50 years ago,” says 37-year-old khartal player Kheta Khan, a member of Barmer Boys, a group of Manganiyar performers. He attributes change in his learning to foreign collaborations.

“We want to be as enthralling as the foreign artistes on stage,” he says. His younger brother Rais Khan has been a huge fan of classical icons such as Zakir Hussain. “I’ve always wondered that if he could experiment with his tabla, why couldn’t I? After all, creating something new is the hallmark of a great artiste,” he says.

ECONOMIC BETTERMENT

These music festivals have also improved economic conditions of the otherwise impoverished performers.

Manganiyars today charge as high as a lakh, depending on the venue, scale and reputation of a programme.

“We are generating sufficient funds to stick to our traditions,” says Kachara Khan, an iconic vocalist who renders Sufiana kalam. Kheta Khan is proud to carry on the 400-year old legacy of the Manganiyars. “We are not dying of hunger. We are participating in concerts and getting recognition and money. We are very happy,” the artiste sums up.

Science and ScientiStS

Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) is empowering scientific community to address challenging issues of national interest and helping them to attain global competitiveness in R&D The Genesis

The Science and Engineering Research Board(SERB) has its origin in the erstwhile Science and Engineering Research Council (SERC) of the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India which was established more than four decades ago. Though the SERC has consistently and strongly supported extramural research which has benefitted a large number of researchers, it was felt necessary to create a separate funding body with its own administrative and financial power which would accelerate the R&D ecosystem in our country. This desire became reality in the year 2009 when the Parliament passed the bill to institute SERB, under the Department of Science and Technology. Ever since it started functioning in the year 2011, the organisation has put in place systems, structures and processes which have greatly improved the funding decision and timely disbursal of grants without compromising on quality.

The Process

The funding decision on research proposals are taken based on the recommendations of various advisory committees comprising of eminent scientists and technologists derived

Prof Ashutosh Sharma, Secretary, DST and Chairman, SERB is giving opening remarks on the occasion of the Global Research Council meeting hosted by SERB and RC UK in New Delhi

SERB programmes are designed to support all good ideas, individuals and institutions, and do not discriminate between private and public organisations from diverse fields.

Funding Opportunities

SERB has many schemes to cater to the funding needs of different segment of researchers, and it funds across ‘disciplines’ and ‘institutions’ without any discrimination. Core research grant scheme (EMR) to individual scientists is the flagship scheme of the Board (popularly called PAC project). Several cutting edge research themes ranging from unfolding the secrets of hadrons to exploring proliferative and differentiation potential of Ayurvedic Rasayanas are funded through this scheme.

SERB is adopting to the changing needs of the country and introduced two new schemes, namely, Industry Relevant R&D and High Risk High Reward Research. While the former attempts to address the gap between public funded

Aromatic, sumptuous, wholesome and garnished with centuries of culinary heritage, there is no other dish as commonly found, or with as many variants in the country, as biryani. A marriage of succulent pieces of meat and aromatic rice cooked in layers, it has over the ages absorbed local ingredients and styles, offering a different taste and texture at every kitchen it is cooked in and served from, across India.

Its origins are debatable - some historians

72 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016

say it travelled to India with the Mughals, while others claim Timur brought it from Kazakhstan. There is another school of thought that asserts the Indian origins of biryani, referring to a dish, oon soru, mentioned in Tamil literature as early as the 2nd century, made of rice, ghee and meat. The Mughals were, however, the ones who gave this dish the stamp of royalty. Whatever be its origins, the humble biryani today is a national treasure, with no two states serving up the same flavours. Here are some must-try regional biryanis.

shubh-yatra.in

1. Calcutta biryani incorporates potatoes and hard boiled eggs to supplement its rich flavour 2. Biryani cooked using the dum-style 3. Aromatic vegetable biryani 2. Sumptuous mutton biryani

Dindigul biryani, Tamil Nadu

Never fill your mouth with the meat while tasting the first spoonful of Dindigul biryani. Or so say the owners of the many “authentic” biryani stalls in Tamil Nadu’s Dindigul. The idea is to taste the special seeraga samba rice, which is at the heart of this dish, and understand how the flavourful grains absorb the spices. Next come the succulent pieces of mutton - always more in quantity than the rice - a tang of lemon juice and curd, and a hot burst of pepper. Savour with it the dalcha, or the signature mutton stew cooked with vegetables and pulses.

Sample this at: Thalappakatti restaurant, Dindigul. Now with a branch in Paris!

Bhatkali biryani, Karnataka

Low on spice and oil or ghee, Bhatkali biryani is an integral part of the Muslim Nawayath community in coastal Karnataka. While it is popular along the entire coastline, Bhatkal, three hours from Mangaluru, is the place where it is most commonly found. Dating back to the 8th century, this dish is believed to have arrived with the migrating Arabs who settled here, setting the first example of blending Middle Eastern and Indian cuisines. What sets Bhatkali biryani apart from its neighbouring peers is the meat, which is cooked in yoghurt, and the extra onions, which give it a slightly sweet taste, keeping the spicy hotness at bay.

Sample this at: Kwality Hotel, Bhatkal

Thalassery biryani, Kerala

Bohri patra biryani Cooked by the Dawoodi Bohras of Mumbai, this biryani has no rice! Made with patrel or colocasia leaves, it is heavily flavoured with tomatoes mahim biryani Adapted in Mumbai, this biryani is known for its combination of fresh and dry spices, including ginger, garlic, yoghurt and kewra, along with its use of yellow food colour and fried potatoes

For the most flavourful biryani served in Malabar’s culinary capital Thalassery, head to Paris.

Not to be mistaken with the Eiffel’s home, this Paris is a small stall in Thalassery that is, however, equally popular among cuisine connoisseurs for its fragrant biryani - cooked with neither oil nor ghee (almost negligible), nor saffron or kewra! The fine aromatic jeerakasala rice cooks in the fat of the meat, absorbing the spices and the flavours of this iconic dish of Moplah cuisine. Very similar to the north Indian dum-style cooking, pointing at a strong Islamic influence, the rice and the meat are cooked separately and then layered for a final dum.

Sample this at: Paris restaurant, Thalassery

Hyderabadi biryani, Telangana

Political boundaries aside, this version of biryani can be termed the most popular export of the state. Also called Nizami biryani - as the

dish has its origins in the Nizam of Hyderabad’s kitchen - it stands apart, owing to the sour curd and the tomatoes used in the recipe. The sourness comes from the generous use of these two ingredients, and balances the equally generous use of ground spices, green chillies and chopped fresh coriander leaves.

The quintessential Hyderabadi dum biryani is made with long-grain basmati rice and goat meat, which is marinated in curd, tenderised with raw papaya and then layered with fried onions and chillies, topped with a sprinkling of kewra, rose water and saffron. The handi in which it is cooked is sealed with dough and left on slow fire, or dum, for a fragrant flavour. At places, the recipe includes red chilli powder sourced from Guntur, which lends to it a luscious colour.

Sample this at: Paradise, Hyderabad

Calcutta biryani, Bengal

The City of Joy is home to a unique variant of the biryani, made with less meat, potatoes and hard boiled eggs. The story goes that when Awadh’s last king, Nawab Wajid Ali Shah, was exiled to Kolkata in 1856, the only person who accompanied him was his personal chef, the royal bawarchi. However, the modest neighbourhood of Metiabruz in suburban Kolkata, where the gourmet king was forced to stay, didn’t have a sufficient supply of meat. So, the chef creatively supplemented the king’s favourite biryani with potatoes and hard-boiled eggs to make up for the paucity of meat while maintaining the flavours. A local speciality today, this biryani is cooked with subtle spices such as nutmeg, cinnamon, mace, cloves and cardamom, and the yoghurt-marinated meat is cooked separately from the rice. Saffron and ketaki water give it additional colour and aroma.

Sample this at: Aminia, Kolkata

Dilli ki biryani

Delhi has its own form of the dish, especially in Old Delhi. Here, the biryani is traditionally made with sela rice instead of the usual basmati. Sela is a variety of par-boiled rice and, thus, is robust and chewy, which gives this biryani a very different flavour and texture.

INCREDIBLE ADVENTURES

IN THE WILDERNESS

The Dudhwa National Park, along with Kishanpur, Katerniaghat and Nawabganj Wildlife Sanctuaries, is easily accessible from Lucknow, which falls on Uttar Pradesh’s famous Heritage Arc DUDHWA NATIONAL PARK & TIGER RESERVE An incredible real-life story was unspooled a few years ago in the beautiful Dudhwa National Park and Tiger Reserve, now one of the country’s important tiger conservation sites under the umbrella of Project Tiger. It was at Dudhwa that the country’s first successful rehabilitation of a leopard into the wild was conducted by one of India’s top wildlife conservators, Billy Arjan Singh, who had hand-reared it from the time it was a cub. The amazing story of Prince, the cub, catapulted the Dudhwa National Park into national headlines. Singh also spearheaded the move to create Dudhwa as a sanctuary for the threatened Barasingha (Cervusduvauceli or swamp deer) for which the park’s habitat is conducive to its survival.

Located in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur-Kheri district, its sprawl of 810 sq km has a core area of 610 sq km. It was declared a National Park in 1958 and became a Project Tiger reserve in the year 1988, when it was linked together with the territories of the nearby Kishanpur and Katerniaghat Wildlife Sanctuaries, enhancing the natural corridor for the movement of wildlife all the way through the Terai region to the IndoNepal borderlands.

The habitat of Dudhwa is pivotal in the preservation of Uttar Pradesh’s wildlife. It is an important custodian of three rare and beautiful wild animals: the tiger, the Barasingha and the Indian one-horned rhino. Stretching up to the Terai region, it lies cheek-by-jowl with the Himalayan foothills of the Indo-Nepal boundaries.

Together with the Kishanpur and Katerniaghat Wildlife sanctuaries, it is a Tiger Reserve and also encapsulates the rich bio-diversity of the terrain of the Terai. On the northern end, the game park is bounded by the Mohana River, which runs along the Indo-Nepal borderlands and to the south it has the Suheli River flashing through rich verdure all along its course.

This vast fertile plain is the drainage basin of scores of tributaries of the Mohana and Suheli,

78 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016 84 I SHUBH YATRA I NOVEMBER 2016

along with countless streams and lakes and pools that are scattered across the sprawl of Dudhwa. Rich in sal, the forest floor is a mosaic of botanical splendour.

The importance of Dudhwa’s ideal habitat for conservation experiments was further heightened when the specimens of two of the world’s highly endangered animals, the Barasingha and the great Indian one-horned rhino of Assam, were introduced here. The growing numbers of both animals (which you are bound to get glimpses of as you explore the park) are a reflection of the timely action and the appropriate choice of habitat to save their numbers from extinction.

The park continues to draw streams of adventure seekers along with birding and wildlife buffs. The big hub for all this is the natural corridor created by the Dudhwa National Park and Kishanpur Wildlife Sanctuary separated only by 15 km of cultivated land. Because Dudhwa did not fall on the over-developed tourist circuit, it managed to conserve much of its pristine charm. For those looking for a quiet and rich wilderness experience, it’s just perfect.

Dudhwa recorded 1,500 deer and 100 tigers at the last census (2011). Primary species here are the tiger, one-horned rhino, Barasingha, elephants, sloth bear, wild boar, leopard and civet. Dudhwa is also famed for its rich avifaunal life. It’s not one

species of deer you will find here; there are five, including the most exotic one, the Barasingha (a full grown stag could stand at 135 cm at the shoulder and weigh 170-180 kg). Deer is the favoured prey of the big cats and the game park provides plenty of support for the animal food chain.

The Indian one-horned rhino can run at a speed of 48-50 km/hr, faster than a musth elephant (32 km/hr). The plentiful pools and lush verdure of Dudhwa are perfect for the needs of this prehensile beast, which can spend all day wallowing in a swampy pool enjoying his vegetal meals. The rhino has been mercilessly hunted down for the assumed aphrodisiacal powers of its horn. Dudhwa is one of the most critical bastions of survival of the Indian rhino in the world. The importance of the rhino’s survival, as well as the propagation of the species in a protected habitat, is that the rhino is an excellent barometer for the wetland ecosystem, considered among the richest and most productive ecosystems. With almost 450 species of birds the terrain of Dudhwa is a birding paradise par excellence.

shubh-yatra.in

As early as the 19th century, when the dehumanising consequences of machines were first felt, thinkers such as British textile designer and author William Morris looked to Indian craft as an example of an alternative to changing production methods. More than a century later, this struggle between hand and machine is still playing out, and nowhere are these tensions more apparent than in India,

where ancient traditions, joint families and handicrafts have remained remarkably well preserved, set mostly in an agrarian context.

The sari saga

In India through the ages, there has been no family event as important as marriage, with celebrations lasting several days and including numerous ceremonies featuring special

garments. And of these garments, none has been as important as the unstitched, handmade length of the sari. “Indian brides have always been traditional, and there is an emphasis on ritual and custom,” says designer Ashdeen Lilaowalia, who specialises in reviving Parsi embroidery. “Over the years, every community in the country patronised a certain craft or technique, which became part of a cultural identity.” But these old ways are under threat now, as more and more people leave their rural lifestyles to find jobs in cities, and regional handicrafts die as everyday products are increasingly mass-produced.

The revival

One bright spot is that, after years of rejecting tradition in favour of modern alternatives, brides are again embracing craft, and the country’s most talented design experts are leading them. “Indian brides are slowly moving towards a zone where they want to be deeply cultural and organic,” says Sabyasachi Mukherjee, one of India’s best-known fashion designers with a rich culture of heritage.

“They want to have a sense of their native history at their wedding,” he adds.

In fact, it is the Indian bridal tradition that is the focus of the craft preservation, as wedding expendi-

tures now replace the royal patronage that sustained the nation’s most exceptional textiles in the past.

An example of this is how Mukherjee employs a wide range of techniques, using embroidery forms such as zardozi, Kashmiri tilla, resham ka kaam, chikankari, numaish, crewelwork, as well as renowned handloom traditions from across the subcontinent such as from Varanasi, Kanchipuram, Chanderi, Kota and Bengal.

Another master helping preserve craft through bridal fashion is designer Tarun Tahiliani. “I am still an advocate of the sari for brides,” he says. “It is versatile, easy to wear, and easy to carry. The beauty of it is that it looks different on every person - loosely draped or moulded to the body it adds romance, cinched at the waist with a belt or cummerbund makes it chic. The possibilities are endless. Prestitched saris are also practical and easier for the younger generation to wear without worrying about it coming off. There is ease of movement and comfort.

The sari screams Indian but has a universal appeal to it,” he explains.

So let’s thank the bride and the wedding sari for helping preserve an ancient tradition, the unsurpassed handcrafted textiles of India.

The rich Benarasi brocade and jewel-hued Kanjeevaram have been an Indian bride’s favourite for ages. While these traditional trousseau-musts were threatened by new-age, easy-to-wear options, they are now back on the bridal list, albeit with a few twists.

Says Sanjay Garg, the designer behind Raw Mango, the choice of celebrity brides such as Soha Ali Khan and Masaba Gupta, “There was a time when brides stuck to traditional colours and textiles such as the Benarasi, Kanjeevaram and the Patola.

But today, brides are exploring India’s rich textile legacy to play with colour and style, picking multi-hued, zari-woven bandhnis from Gujarat, Assam’s mekhelachadar in pat and muga silk, resplendent Pochampallis from Telangana or Kerala’s gorgeous kasavu sarees.

We are contemporising traditional textiles in terms of colour and feel. It important to preserve heritage, yet update it to suit modern needs. Only then will heritage be relevant.”

Agrees Palak Shah from the brand Ekaya, which has become synonymous with reviving the Benarasi weave. “I am a purist and do not like tampering with traditional textiles. But to make them more attractive to young customers, we have had to play around with the fabric. The products in which Parsi embroidery was reinterpreted in Benarasi fabric have been popular. Then the range that we created with Play Clan, imprinting graphic motifs in a traditional Benarasi sari, has also found a lot of takers.”

With the Internet becoming the new medium for entertainment, short films and web series have become the new rage. Convenient, personal and pocket-friendly.

We at Y-Films, the youth division of Yash Raj Films, wanted to venture into a younger and newer format. So we put our heads together and came up with India’s first web series on gender equality - A Man’s World, in 2015 - and it became an overnight success. That gave us the confidence to roll out Bang Baaja Baarat the same year. We followed up with other successful series such as Ladies Room, ventured into short films with Love Shots and introduced India’s first transgender band, the

6 Pack Band. And each of these has been more successful than the previous one.

There are a variety of reasons why short films and web series are in demand, the popularity of smartphones being the foremost. The drastic drop in broadband rates and smartphone prices have aided it. Television, on the other hand, is filled with saas-bahu sagas, and what little remains is taken over by mindless reality shows and talenthunt contests. The Internet, in comparison, is a treasure trove of variety.

Which is one of the main reasons we have so many people experimenting with subject, treatment and medium. There is no constraint on format like in cinema, TV, radio and even print; no constraint of time and space. The Internet does not bind you either - you can make content that can run anywhere between two minutes to a couple of hours. It has given us genres and formats that traditional media can only dream about.

This year we’ve crossed 70 million views, without spending a single penny to buy them. That’s a very important barometer because you can buy views but not subscriptions. Financing a project is a tough call because we make no money from it.

There is no specific way to monetise the medium but we have a 360-degree approach. We have plenty of touch points such as sponsorship and partnership. All the short stories and web series that we have created so far have had some brand backing us. For example, Airtel backed Love Shots and Red Label was behind the 6 Pack Band.

Other revenue points are telecom providers and music websites, as all the tracks from our shows go to them and are available for download. We also generate money by licensing content, so if a radio channel wants to play our content or show a Y-Films video on TV, we license revenue.

This is just the beginning and, judging by its popularity, it won’t be long before we have more and better content online!

Interestingly, many of these technologies are also being provided to other nations, true to the spirit of civil-nuclear cooperation.

Nuclear power Since its inception, DAE has realised the need to reduce carbon emission and dependence on fossil fuels to produce electricity. The Department spearheads the development of nuclear technology to fulfil India’s increasing energy needs.

Currently, it operates 21 nuclear reactors spread across the various states of the country. Several more are in the offing, in sync with India’s global commitments of reducing carbon emissions.

The most recent addition of the two 1000 MWe plants at Kudankulam, Tamil Nadu are India’s largest electricity units. Also, first of its kind indigenous ‘breeder’ reactor is in advance stage of development at Kalpakkam, near Chennai.

HealtHcare maNagemeNt DAE has developed an ecosystem of radiation-based techniques for diagnosis and therapy of cancer, making modern treatment accessible and affordable across the country.

Bhabhatron, the completely indigenous cancer therapy machine, is one of the successful products developed by BARC, the leading R&D centre of DAE.

It is important to note that these crops are not same as genetically modified ones. Radiation techniques are also used in increasing the shelf life of fruits, vegetables and spices. In fact, many developed countries have made DAE radiation treatment an integral part of their import standards.

DAE has also developed several low-cost water purification technologies, for both domestic and community use. Using special nuclear material and techniques, DAE has successfully traced groundwater and made it available for irrigation.

Low-cost water purifier that works without electricity is developed by DAE

Societal applicatioNS NISARGRUNA, the decentralised urban waste management system converts bio-waste into electricity. It has been successfully adopted by several community kitchens across the country.

Today, India stands tall and proud in the world nuclear community due to deliveries achieved through entirely self-reliant and sustainable strategies. The synergy between the constituent Units of the Department and the cross-fertilisation of ideas has made DAE a force-multiplier in India’s progressiveness.

“…we will exhaust the known reserves of fossil fuel in under a century. It shows the absolute necessity of finding a new source of energy if the light of our civilisation is not to be extinguished because we’ve burnt out our fuel reserves. It is in this context that we turn to atomic energy for a solution…” ~ Dr. homi Jehangir Bhabha (1909 – 1966) Father of indian nuclear programme, Founder of Department of Atomic energy and Propounder of peaceful uses of atomic energy

Sands of

Time

Armed with his Kevlar riding suit and his home-made rehydration solution, Jay Kannaiyan rides his bike through the shimmering Egyptian sands The first morning rays tore through the mesh of my one-man tent, hot and blazing. Soon the Egyptian Sahara would shimmer in the scorching sun. It was time to pack up the camp I had set up at the base of a large limestone outcrop in a place known as the White Desert. This part of the Sahara, a dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drive from Cairo, was filled with large, exposed white rocks that the sand-borne wind had carved into psychedelic Aeolian shapes. It is astonishing to see what art nature can create.

I had a highly capable motorcycle and topquality gear and I was slowly meandering back to India solo after a decade in the US along a route that made its way through South America, Europe and Africa.

Back at the White Desert, as I fired up my petrol stove to make my staple oatmeal breakfast, I noticed small animal footprints around the camp. I realised they belonged to a desert fox that had come to inspect the camp for food scraps at night. It was intrigu-

ing to realise that while the desert might seem inhospitable and lifeless to a city dweller, there was actually a thriving ecosystem of plants and animals among its sands.

Some of this was evident in the grand structures of ancient Egypt that I had seen in Cairo. In the pyramids and tombs, I had come across hieroglyphs of plants and animals - even gods with animal heads.

Not so dissimilar to Indian culture.

India and Egypt, while seeming like distant cultures, actually shared a well-recorded past of their ancient civilisations — and there are connections between the cultures even in modern times. In this faraway land, my brown skin allowed me to blend in. And more than just appearance, there is a similarity in food, particularly in the staple known as kosheri in Egypt. It’s a combination of rice, lentils, pasta, crispy onions and tomato sauce. It’s said that British soldiers during the Second World War brought over the concept of khichdi from India, where cooking lentils with rice is comfort food.

Egypt has always been at the crossroads of culture, and the vast desert has played a large part in

that. The Sahara was the final frontier for cultures further south reaching the Mediterranean, and for cultures to the north to gain access to the East.

Leaving the White Desert, I traversed along the Oasis Route as the mercury climbed past 50°C. More than the rays of the sun, it was the radiant heat coming from the desert that felt stifling. The dry heat of the desert was intense. Even though it was hot under my Kevlar mesh riding suit, I preferred the slight warmth of the suit compared to the burning of my exposed skin to the sun. I stopped frequently to hydrate, downing my homemade rehydration solution - 1 tbsp sugar, ½ tbsp salt and some concentrated lime juice in 1 litre of water. Water on its own does not cut it in this heat, as a bit of salt is necessary for the body to absorb the water. Out in the desert, it takes more than just water to survive. Passing through the oases of Farafra and Dakhla, I reached Kharga, the biggest oasis in Egypt. Kharga and the other oases have been focal points for caravan routes since time immemorial, and along the way, the Romans set up shop here, leaving behind a trail of forts out in the Libyan desert, west of the Nile river. Like breadcrumbs dropped to mark a route, these ruins

On the west bank of the Nile lies the sprawling Mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, located beneath the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. Hatshepsut was a rare female pharaoh and was considered very successful during her reign (1503 BC to 1482 BC).

The temple, known as Djeser-Djeseru (the Holy of Holies), rises up with its grand columns set on multiple terraces, giving the feeling of a stairway to heaven.

were once formidable structures built to protect the Darb el-Arbain caravan route that originated in Dafur, Sudan, and passed through oases along the way, through Kharga, ending further north in Asyut on the Nile.

Trudging through the sand, protected from the sun with a wide-brimmed hat and dark glasses, I came upon the Roman fort at Ain El Labakha. It’s a grand structure among the featureless desert, and even with three sides crumbled, it had an imposing aura about it. I could imagine how it must have looked in its heyday about 2,000 years ago to a caravan emerging from the shimmering heat.

I ventured further east until I reached the Nile, and Egypt’s most impressive city, Luxor. The architectural remains of Thebes in and around the city will remain imprinted in my memory for ever. This ancient city gained prominence for the luxurious lifestyle of its rulers and acted as the centre of ancient Egyptian politics, culture and religion.

Crossing the Nile on a felucca, a small boat powered by a sail, I followed the line of uncovered sphinxes that starts at Luxor temple at the river’s edge and leads to Karnak temple. The Sphinx Alley connects these two grand temples and was used by the ancients for a yearly procession depicting the marriage of their prominent gods, Amun and Mut. Egyptologists guess there were about 1,350 sphinxes lining this road, which are slowly being uncovered.

Dodging donkey-driven carts and honking traffic, I arrived at the Karnak temple complex, considered the holiest place in ancient Egypt. Construction began in the Middle Kingdom (2000 BC) and continued till the Ptolemaic period (300 BC). The grandest feature in the temple complex is the Great Hypostyle Hall - a 50,000 sq ft hall with 134 giant pillars, resembling a massive papyrus marsh.

It’s mind-boggling to even think about how this giant monument was set up, that, too, in 1290 BC. Pharaoh Seti I commissioned and set about building this “temple of millions of years”. I sat at the base of one pillar and, as I looked up, my own insignificance dawned on me. It was just the peace here that ruled.

However, wish as I did that I could sit there for an eternity, the rest of Africa beckoned. Swinging a leg over my motorcycle, I fired up the throttle and rode off into the desert.

Snow leopards stand at about 24 inch at the shoulder and weigh around 30-55 kg. Their exquisite, smoky-grey fur is patterned with dark-grey to black rosettes that help camouflage them against rocky slopes

“Have you seen the snow leopard? No! Isn’t that wonderful!” had said American wildlife writer Peter Matthiessen, very famously, in his book The Snow Leopard. Truth be told, very few of us have seen a snow leopard, one of the most enigmatic of the big cats, though the smallest in size among them, living in the wild in the mountains of Central Asia. But I was hoping to be included in the rare club of spotters. As I landed in Leh (in India, the ranges of Ladakh are where these animals mostly live), somewhere deep down I knew I was hoping for the impossible. The next day, at the World Wildlife Fund’s (WWF) India office, as I trooped in to learn more about the conservation efforts being pursued to save the animal from extinction, my hopes were almost dashed. Pushpinder Jamwal, project officer with WWF, a young, handsome lad from Jammu, had managed to spot the big cat innumerable times and had captured its images, too. But then again, that had taken him several months. It was from him that we heard how and why the beautiful animal is gradually vanishing.

The Ghost mustn’t

vanish

As he revisits Ladakh’s terrain, people and culture, Arnab Banerjee finds himself falling in love with the region all over again – and rooting for the survival of the magnificent snow leopard

With the rare cat residing at an altitude of above 3,000m, it is almost impossible to study its behavioural patterns.

It survives in temperatures as low as -40°C and amid some of the steepest terrain. And folklore says it ventures out in the open more often during the harsh winter months, its spotted white coat merging with the rocky icecovered terrain. Camouflaging itself such, it truly earns the nickname - the “grey ghost”.

While wild sheep and goat are its primary food, it also feeds on marmots, pikas, rodents and birds too. In India, the snow leopard is found in parts of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, north Sikkim and western Arunachal Pradesh.

In search of the grey ghost

To resolve this man-animal conflict, adventure gear brand Woodland has teamed up with WWF-India and the J&K Wildlife Protection department to launch the High on Himalayas campaign. Launched in June 2015, this campaign is a consumer-awareness and crowd-funding initiative supporting WWF-India’s conservation work in the Himalayan ecosystem, both in western and eastern India. Thirty predator-proof corral pens have already been constructed in Matho, Kanji and Shang in Leh and Ladakh. More are being finished in Changthang and Rong. “A corral pen is an enclosure with an iron door, and a roof of wooden beams and wire mesh. The mesh protects the livestock from attacks. The villagers are given solar lanterns to hang near the pens to discourage nocturnal attacks,” informs Pankaj Chandan, team leader of the Western Himalayas Landscape, WWF-India.

For the past two decades, the animal has been facing incessant threats to its survival due to human encroachment, diminishing prey, loss of habitat due to global warming, diseases and poaching. The lack of conservation policies, enforcement and lack of awareness add to the woe. Desperate, the snow leopards stalk villages for cattle and livestock, the mainstay of villagers here. When a snow leopard attacks, it kills more than one victim. The trail of devastation leaves the villagers with only one choice - retaliation.

a land of many charms Japan offers a mix of natural beauty, cultural diversity and delectable cuisine that makes it particularly attractive for visitors from India Japan, the “land of the rising sun”, is a popular destination for visitors from across the world. Its long-standing association and deep ties with India make it popular for visitors from India, who are charmed by its cuisine, vivid culture, history, and warmth towards overseas visitors. The constant improvement in facilities to improve the visitor inflow from India is a positive sign, says Akihiko Tamura, commissioner, Japan Tourism Agency.

Japan is globally known for its unique culture and scrumptious cuisine. Can you highlight a few exclusive aspects of Japan’s food and culture that attract tourists from all parts of the world to the island nation?

Japan attracted about 20 million visitors in 2015-16 alone, which accounted for a 47% increase in tourists as compared to

104 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016

the previous year. If we have to explain the touristic charm of Japan in one word, it would be Diversity. For instance, Japanese food has become very popular across the globe and “washoku” or traditional Japanese cuisine is part of the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

also offers traditional city life and crafts of old times.

Each region has its own unique ingredients and has developed cooking methods that highlight the original taste of each ingredient, which is a unique characteristic of Japanese food that is enjoyed by tourists. Japan stretches over a long distance from north to south, and has all the varieties of landscapes that an international traveller seeks. As an example, Tokyo gives a unique feel of an upscale metropolis but its back streets

Q. India and Japan, two of the oldest and largest democracies of Asia, are guided by common cultural traditions and share a commitment to warmly embrace guests to the country. How do you view Japan as an ideal tourist destination for Indians?

Japanese are very simple, kind and hospitable people with a welcoming attitude towards visitors. We have historical ties between India and Japan dating back to the 8th century,

Japan offers much to attract visitors from India, with constantlyimproving connectivity and vibrant culture

We have historical ties between India and Japan dating back to the 8th century, when a senior monk came to Nara (in south-central Honshu) and established the Buddha statue

when a senior monk came to Nara (in south-central Honshu) and established the Buddha statue. So, when Indian tourists visit Japan, they not only enjoy state-ofthe-art Japanese technology but also varied Japanese history and common hospitality extended to tourists.

Despite cultural exchanges between India and Japan that date back to the 8th century, Japan saw just 103,000 visitors from India (<0.01% population) in 2015 due to several challenges like language barriers, food limitations, etc. What measures are proposed by Japan Tourism to tackle these limitations and invite more Indians to the country?

Though there were about 100,000 visitors from India in 2015, which was nearly 17% more than the previous year, almost 40% of them were commercial visitors on business trip. We feel there is much more room to attract more of these visitors from the Indian market. Yes, there are challenges as well, and the biggest of them is the language barrier. We are working very hard to overcome this by expanding free Wi-Fi network across Japan and putting up signages in multiple languages. Hotels are making their best efforts in training their staff in the English language. We are rapidly overcoming this challenge. Another issue is flight frequency between the two countries. Our aviation authority here has been working with airport companies to improve airport services (including making them more cost-effective), which could enable the airlines to increase the frequency

shubh-yatra.in

of direct flights that would result in a larger number of Indian tourists.

Recently, relations between India and Japan have improved exponentially, and Japan is among the nations where India extended its e-tourist visa facility. Could we see similar ease in availing Japanese visas for Indian nationals, in order to further strengthen relations?

In the last couple of years, the Japanese government has taken several steps to relax visa requirements for Indian tourists and introduced multiple-entry visas two years ago. This year, it extended the maximum stay period from 15 to 30 days (90 days for businesspersons, intellectuals and researchers). We are making efforts to welcome more Indian tourists and ensure their comfortable stay. As for relaxations in visa requirements, multiple ministries and agencies are involved, so we are working on persuading these bodies to ease the process. I believe that we will soon see a much easier visa process.

According to you, which is an ideal time of the year to visit Japan and cherish its picturesque beauty, warm hospitality and enriched culture?

Studies have suggested that for Indians, the best time to travel overseas is during the school holidays (April to June) and during the Diwali and Vijay Dashmi holidays (October through November), as these are the ideal seasons for travelling around Japan. December to January can also be an attractive time for Indian travellers looking to enjoy snow, skiing or adventure sports.

the holiday bucket list India’s neighbouring countries - Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh - are emerging as the most preferred travel destinations for Indian tourists The perception of the best holiday destination varies from individual to individual. It all depends on what one seeks from his or her holiday. It may be a refreshing sun bath on pristine sand beaches, cherishing the picturesque views of the snow-covered hill tops, or discovering hidden gems about indigenous tribes. However, some places in the world are so unequivocally brilliant, so indisputably incredible, that they easily make it to the bucket lists of travellers of every genre. Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are three such heavens that are there on the bucket-list of every Indian.

Nepal

The Himalayan nation leaves its tourists mesmerised with its rugged beauty.

Though Nepal is famous mainly for

trekking, it has a lot of local sights to be explored too. In fact, recently, the Lonely Planet travel guide ranked Nepal among the top ‘Best Value Destinations’ and 5th among the top 10 countries in the world to visit in 2017. The best part about Nepal is that Indian citizens do not need a visa to visit the country. Add Nepal to you bucket list and wake up to mornings of snow-peaked mountains and lush greenery with rainbows.

Bangladesh

A land with an exhilarating mix of fascinating history, vibrant culture, panoramic beauties, historical ruins, flora and fauna, hills and forests, sandy sea beaches and wildlife, Bangladesh impresses its tourists with so many attractions within such a small geographical boundary. Coxsbazar,

the world’s longest sandy beach; Sundarbans, the world’s single largest mangrove forest; St Martins, the country’s only coral island; Bandarban, a land with stunning natural beauty and Buddhist temples; and Rangamati, the “lake city’, offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience for travellers.

Sri Lanka

Culturally as rich as India, this island nation, a southern neighbour of India, boasts of exotic locations. It is a paradise for nature lovers, with many zoos and scenic locations. With a number of UNESCO heritage sites, beaches, wildlife parks and hill country resorts packed into a relatively small area, Sri Lanka is undoubtedly one of the best holiday destinations waiting to be discovered and celebrated.

THE LAND OF EVEREST Nepal is an attractive travel destination for tourists from India, says Deepak Raj Joshi, CEO of the Nepal Tourism Board You will soon be completing your first year as the CEO of the Nepal Tourism Board. What major progress has the country witnessed in tourism in last one year, especially in terms of rebuilding infrastructure and restoring tourism that was affected by the earthquake in April 2015?

Infrastructure rebuilding started the day after the earthquake. It is an ongoing process, which is expected to continue for a few years. Heritage sites in Kathmandu that succumbed are being rebuilt; some are almost complete now, such as Boudhanath, a very popular and sacred place, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Rebuilding continues at a steady rate at other hard-hit areas too, including Langtang, Gorkha and Sindhupalchowk.

We have tried to rebuild the travellers’ confidence through fresh communication and real-time updates by our online recovery campaign Nepal Now, which worked very well. We received hundreds of user-generated stories, pictures and updates that were extremely useful in telling the world that all is well in Nepal.

We have been sharing the latest market information through traditional means like travel fairs and FAM trips.

Our continuous effort has definitely made an impact in communicating the right message, and we are starting to regain tourist inflows. Our hotelier and tour operator friends have reported good bookings. I have seen immense resilience, dedication and commitment in the tourism community in the last one year.

Nepal’s tourism is largely dependent on the Himalayas. However, with changing times and environmental effects, glaciers are receding and snow is melting. How is the government responding to this?

The Himalayas are definitely the most prized assets that drive our tourism. And yes, climate change is expected to create a major impact on the Himalayan region.

108 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016

Many studies on the impact of climate change in the last decade have been conducted, to create a clearer perspective and prepare for changes. There have been awareness programmes and sharing of information at local as well as policy level. As people living in the region, it is very important for us to understand how this would impact our lives and our businesses.

Nepal and India share strong strategic ties as friendly neighbours and old business associates. What are the prospects of Nepal’s tourism keeping in view the Indian tourists?

India is our top value and volume market, keeping our close geographic and cultural proximity in view. In the last decade, annual tourist inflows to Nepal from India by air have been about 100,000-150,000.

Indian tourists visiting Nepal are generally leisure or pilgrimage travellers. However, the Indian market is changing fast, and we are working on identifying the target group and creating the right package.

We want to work more closely in the Indian market in the near future and target different age groups - including professionals and youth - considering Nepal is the best destination to have an out-of-country experience with worldclass tour options at value-for-money prices and less cumbersome and hasslefree travel for an Indian traveller, or for any traveller for that matter.

The Nepal Tourism Board has recently been participating in various travel events globally. How successful has this participation been in terms of selling the idea of Nepal as a tourist destination?

As a national tourism organisation, it is important for the Nepal Tourism Board to keep the visibility of Nepal high and create opportunities for the travel industry to reach out to the target markets.

Participation at the various travel events all over the world has been extremely

shubh-yatra.in

Deepak Raj Joshi CEO, Nepal Tourism Board

helpful to us in these respects. By being present in our regular travel trade shows and reaching out to the market, we are able to create the perception of normality, win the confidence of our potential clients and travellers and convince them to put Nepal back on their itineraries.

It is also important to participate in these trade shows to keep the network alive with the “Who’s who” of the world travel industry.

What are the future plans to further boost tourism in the country?

The future, of course, is in digital marketing. As we all know, there has been a major shift in the tourism communication sector with most clients getting their information online. We have also seen the power of user-generated content and real-time updates in the world of marketing and promotion. Therefore, our communication is gearing up to strengthen the digital presence of Nepal as a tourist destination.

As online travel engagement is rapidly growing, more of the youth segment is digitally connected and planning visits to Nepal. Our mission is to create a holistic digital plan for deeper reach among the different demographics and psychographics of our target market.

Inspite of severe resource crunch in the absence of major industries and big business, the government of Nagaland has taken up notable pathbreaking initiatives during the last few years including the following:

Nagas speak more than 60 different dialects belonging to the SinoTibetan family. Even within a tribe, the dialect varies from village to village

costumes and practices. The Nagas speak more than 60 different dialects belonging to the Sino-Tibetan family.

Even within a tribe, the dialect varies from village to village apart from having a common tribal language

How to reach Nagaland

By Air: Dimapur, at distance of around 75 km from Kohima, is the closest domestic airport.

By Train: Nearest railway station is Dimapur, which is well-connected to Kolkata and Guwahati.

By Road: One can take a share taxi from Dimapur railway station and reach Kohima.

with which they converse during intra-tribal meets. However, English being the official language of the state, a visitor can get by without much communication barrier.

Each tribe has its own festivals and dances celebrated with great pomp and gaiety. Although rites and rituals performed during these festivals are different from tribe to tribe, the common theme of the festivals is the offering of prayers and acknowledging the ‘supreme being’ for pouring abundant blessings upon the crops.

Flora and Fauna About one-sixth of Nagaland is covered by tropical and sub-tropical evergreen forests—including palms, bamboo, rattan as well as timber and mahogany forests. While some forest areas have been cleared for jhum cultivation, many

scrub forests, high grass, reeds; wild animals like pangolins, porcupines, elephants, leopards, bears, many species of monkeys, sambar, harts, oxen, and buffaloes thrive across the state's forests. The great Indian hornbill is one of the most famous birds found in the state. Blyth's tragopan, a vulnerable species of pheasant, is the state bird of Nagaland. It is sighted in Mount Japfü and Dzükou Valley of Kohima district, Satoi range in Zunheboto district and Pfütsero in Phek district. Of the mere 2500 tragopans sighted in the world, Dzükou valley is the natural habitat of more than 1,000.

About a million Amur falcons roost in Nagaland. That is about 50 falcons per square kilometer.

Mithun (a semi domesticated gaur) found only in the north-eastern states of India, is the state animal of Nagaland

and has been adopted as the official seal of the Government of Nagaland.

It is ritually the most valued species in the state. To conserve and protect this animal in the northeast, the National Research Centre on Mithun (NRCM) was established at Jharnapani on National Highway 29 (Dimapur District) in 1988.

HoMeStaY Travel is not just about the places you visit, it's about the people too! Although Kohima has more hotels now than it had when Nagaland first opened its borders to tourists from around the world, Homestays are still the most popular type of accommodation in most areas of Nagaland where guests stay in with hosts who open their homes to travellers. By choosing a homestay for the accommodation, tourists are directly helping the local economy whilst at the same time

The objective of the Heritage Village is to protect and preserve all ethnic cultural heritages by establishing a common management approach and comprehensive data base for perpetuation and maintenance for promotion of tourism. It also aims to uphold and sustain the distinct identity of dialects, customs and traditions of all the ethnic tribes of Nagaland.

The objective of the Heritage Village - Kisama is to protect and preserve all ethnic cultural heritages of Nagaland by establishing a common management approach for promotion of tourism their rich cultural heritage and tradition under the aegis of "Hornbill Festival".

Nature has been kind to the Nagas and their land by virtue of natural and scenic beauty and making it a tourist hotspot. tHe HornBill FeStiVal It was in the year 2000, that the State Government desirous of promoting tourism embarked upon an ambitious project to exploit the cultural assets of Nagaland, through a weeklong long festival to coincide with the celebration of Nagaland Statehood Day on 1st December. Thus, the inception of the Nagaland Hornbill Festival, so named in collective reverence to the bird

Each community celebrates its myriad festivals revolving around the agrarian calendar that makes Nagaland, by default, a land of festivals. Twelve years on, this tangible heritage asset has been aptly tagged as "The Festival of Festivals" to encompass through collective celebration the colour and vibrant elements of all the tribal festivities and give a glimpse of Naga life to titillate cultural sensibilities. What has emerged from a local heritage event, metamorphosed into a national and international festival, with tens of thousands of travellers making it a must-stop in their itinerary every year.

The annual Hornbill Festival is held for ten days, 1st-10th December. It draws all the tribes and sub-tribes of Nagaland to the foothills below the lofty spurs of towering Mount JapfĂź wherein lies Naga Heritage Village, Kisama - the venue of the Festival. It plays host to a medley of cultural performances, indigenous games, craft bazaar, music events, fashion, cycling, motor sporting, events, a kids carnival, floral galleria, food courts, film festival and a series of competitions in various activities.

naga CuiSine Nagaland is considered as one of the biodiversity hotspots in the world.

The Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s topography is rugged and mountainous with only around 8% plain area in Dimapur district. It is considered that the wild edible plants found in the rocky and mountainous areas are more than the cultivated vegetables in Nagaland.

Naga food may not yet be considered haute cuisine but the ingredients are organic and directly derived from the land. Nagas prefer to keep the preparation of their food simple to retain the pure healthy flavours of the ingredients. Most of the food are prepared as stews and are served with rich, fragrant steamed rice and various side dishes.

otHer attraCtionS The present generation of Nagas have ventured into fashion designing in a big way, reproducing fabrics that represent the ancestral motifs blended with modern appeal. Indeed, it is a beautiful mix of the past with the present, a paradise for those who are into fashion designing. This is an affluent fashion station of the East.

For the adventurous and the intrepid, Nagaland is an ideal place for trekking, rock climbing, jungle camping and offers limitless exploration possibilities in its lush and verdant sub-tropical rain forests which are also a treasure trove of a plethora of medicinal plants.

Nagaland is blessed with salubrious climate throughout the year and one can visit it anytime. If one is looking for a quiet getaway, from the hustle and bustle of city life, it provides the right ambience.

The Son shines on Living between Mumbai and Dubai, artist Owais Husain looks at his personal and artistic engagement with the issue of displacement, says Poonam Goel Owais Husain has often called himself a “child of displacement”, where personal emotional experiences have remained a constant and helped him “unravel” his artistic vocabulary. At the same time, Husain has aligned himself more along a contemporary urban ecosystem. He is mindful of his father MF Husain’s cultural lexicon but uses the ancestral idioms selectively. “Growing up as an artist, you inevitably simplify the process,” Husain says. “What began as a search for my own place in the larger map of cultural politics and art, ended in the familiarity of the displaced.

Here was a comfort zone to manipulate and process my image-making exercise.”

The artist calls himself a “sort of cartographer, a storyteller”, who explores current visual language for the next generation. He is known for his multimedia installations created in a combination of film, photography, sculpture and poetry. With apprenticeships under veteran Indian artist Jagdish Swaminathan in Bhopal and Robert Blackburn at the Printmaking Workshop in New York, Husain developed a rich mixed-media practice early in his career. His most recent work, installed at the Mumbai railway station, titled You Are Forever, is a continuation of his ongoing exploration of identity and migration. “Everyone is an immigrant today,” says Husain, who is showing at the Abu Dhabi Art Fair this month. “We are driftwood, complacent in our ecosystem of misbelief. There is no human untouched by this. Even in the remotest part of the world, they feel the consequences of everyone else shifting in the environment.”

We’re all migrants, some more immediate than others. An Indian living in the West is an immigrant, whereas, a foreign national living in India is an ‘expat’

The Mumbai link

Mumbai has traditionally been home to “migrants” and that the installation has been placed at the railway station is symbolic in itself. The installation seems to depict the convergence of two 9x12 ft walls of a hundred stacked metal trunks. A video displays static objects and transportation images, speaking

(On both ends) Lightworks from his collection titled There Is No Present. We Only Exist Between The Past And The Future, 2015, (middle) light installation The Harbinger, 2016, and (bottom) Owais Husain’s paint bottles make a work of art

of the station’s continual flow of goods and people since its inception. “The trunk serves as an icon of transit or a home,” says Husain. “Along with the historical passage of goods, the video also addresses the shifting of cultures from one place to the other looking at the station as the centre that absorbs the essence of modern-day migration.”

It was in the early 1990s, when Husain moved from Mumbai to New York and later to Ahmedabad, that he became fascinated with the idea of placement (“or displacement”, as he says) of the human element in diverse landscapes. He began using these ideas in paintings and, later, conceptually in film.

However, the thought seems to have evolved and become more pronounced mostly through his multidisciplinary art installations in the past few years.

Living the idea

Art & more The public art project in Mumbai, Bori Bunder @ Platform 8, is on till November.

Eleven artists have been invited to create works that are sitespecific and generate a dialogue the commuters walking through the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus Railway Station.

For Publica, a public art festival held across India earlier this year, Husain showcased an installation titled For Every Horizon You Leave Behind at two locations in Delhi. Once again, the idea of ownership or displacement of culture among fast-changing scenarios of homeland underlined his work. An upturned, oversized house stood at an angle, black as a shadow with metallic lines that travelled across it, like voices without memory. Inside was an upright room clad in mirrors, reflecting the viewer’s silhouette, broken by the light that cheated its way in. “At Bikaner House, the piece was installed at the entrance pathway, leaving visitors no option but to interact with the work by walking through it. In a Saket mall, the artwork became part of the landscape,” Husain says.

118 I Shubh Yatra I NOVEMBER 2016

shubh-yatra.in

The theme of displacement recurs in the House Of Cards series, in which he works with art students in areas of displaced cultures, such as India, South Africa and Mexico. The series has emerged from the painting No One Is Where He Wanted To Be, which Husain had earlier worked on.

The idea of a house of cards is symbolic as well — something that can be collapsed and reinstalled any number of times, anywhere. Hence the very nature of each installation requires it to be portable and flexible.

Home alone

Another installation, created in 2015, which Husain calls one of his most “intimate” works, features three large paper houses lit from within. Titled Heart Of Silence, the work shows each house suspended, quiet and glowing, with a warm, inviting light. However, their upside-down position suggests that they have been overturned by violence, catastrophe or displacement.

At the far end of the installation is a video screen showing the restless feet of a wanderer, referencing the displacement of today’s shifting populations.

“This piece was a marked departure from my work it forced me to look more intimately at how questions of identity and homeland affected me, and the manner in which I created my work. Choosing to include my own poetry, too, was something different, as that revealed a very private part of my life. The experience of creating the work had a deeper emotional underset and intimacy,” Husain sums up.

dapper?

Rahul Khanna, a self-confessed aviation geek, shares with Riaan Jacob George his passion for the fine art of elegant travel and his penchant for effortless fashion

One look at Rahul Khanna’s stylish Instagram or Snapchat feed and you realise just how much of a bon vivant he is - arresting ocean views from his south Mumbai apartment, slow-mo treadmill selfies, food pics, accessories and, of course, his fashionable acquisitions. What piques my fancy, however, is his decidedly luxurious approach to travel. Monogrammed luggage, in-flight Champagne, gorgeous premium cabins and exotic destinations. I ask the actor if lugging around monogrammed Louis Vuitton trunks is his idea of travelling light. “It is quite strange,” he says, “I am a minimalist, but somehow, I cannot travel light. I like to take lots of options and I always feel I may need something. I am addicted to the Muji packing cubes, which help me organise my bags. I usually take slightly more than what I need.” As for the trunks, there’s an interesting story there. “I remember attending an estate sale for Jamshed Bhabha, when he died, and they were auctioning off all his belongings at his Malabar Hill residence. It felt like I had stepped into The Great Gatsby,

because it was all laid out so well. Among his personal effects, I found these steamer trunks, all of which had his initials on them.

That really inspired me to get myself some monogrammed luggage for my own travels,” he says.

There is a certain old-school appeal to the actor’s approach to travel, in that he is always nattily dressed for a flight and takes the trouble to sport gorgeous luggage. “I am indeed old-school. I love the time when people used to travel on cruise liners and old airplanes. They were all so elegant. I remember my parents going off to the airport, they were so stylish, as there were strict dress codes back then. Air India, for that matter, boasted the most elegantly dressed clientele. Gentlemen in Air India’s business-class cabins always wore a jacket, while ladies carried a vanity case. You don’t see those vanity cases any more,” he says.

Khanna, whose Twitter profile aptly reads “boutique Bollywood actor”, speaks of two

nature-oriented. But that’s also because my work requires me to be so.” Khanna is no easy traveller. He plans his journeys out to the last detail and admits he is controlling in that respect. “While I do have someone who plans my travel, I end up doing it myself. I know exactly which seat, on which aircraft, on which airline. And if I don’t get that seat, I actually have second, third and fourth options.” That said, is Rahul Khanna an aisle-seat guy or a window-seat guy? “Window, of course!” he chuckles.

Once he’s at a destination, Khanna prefers to stay at off-the-radar hotels, places that people don’t really know about - “hidden gems that don’t advertise”, as he puts it.

Fashion Speak Khanna was chosen as a partner of the American brand Nautica as part of its international repositioning initiative.

“The repositioned Nautica collection is all about going from a sporty atmosphere to a more urban one.

A lot of times, you’re on the beach in a pair of shorts and there’s that slight nip in the air. It is nice to have something light to throw on,” he says.

fellow passengers whose style influenced him greatly. “I remember travelling next to Feroz Khan on a flight to Dubai once. He was impeccably dressed in a blazer, a scarf, monogrammed shoes and matching luggage. Then I once travelled next to Tom Ford. I saw the way he was dressed and groomed, and I thought to myself that it is such a respectful thing to do for your fellow passengers. It is a nice way of travelling. Flying is one of the most public things you can do and it’s nice to be well presented.” If you ever spot the dapper actor at an international airport, you will see him in his “flight staples” - a pair of dark jeans, a tailored shirt and a lightweight jacket.

While on the subject of travel, the actor, who joined the ranks of Indian actors bridging the Hollywood gap with his much-lauded appearance in the show The Americans, admits that he is passionate about discovering new, offbeat destinations. “I am more

122 I Shubh Yatra I november 2016

Is he partial to the opulent luxury of a big-city hotel or the understated barefoot luxury at an offbeat address? “I do love slick and modern hotels with amenities and technology. But to me, luxury could also mean complete isolation. Access to nature is a huge luxury. While on the subject of modern city hotels, I love using technology. I was at the Four Seasons New York recently and their new mobile app is amazing. I used it for everything, even to order room service. In a city, I love to walk, to just get lost in the streets. That’s a great way to discover restaurants and museums. I rely on locals to guide me as well,” he says.

Among his most interesting recent projects was one that took him to Dufftown in Scotland, the home of the legendary single malt Glenfiddich, to host a TV show, The Mavericks. “I had never been to Scotland before, so it was a superb experience. I must confess that I was learning about whisky on this trip. I loved how they’d kept their whisky heritage alive and raised it to an art form. And, of course, the culture around the Scottish highlands is incredible,” he says.

48th ICSI foundation day

ICSI celebrated the 48th CS Day with a mega celebration at Kolkata

The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) celebrated the 48th CS Day in October with a mega programme at the Gorky Sadan auditorium in Kolkata. Derek Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, Rajya Sabha MP and member, All India Trinamool Congress Parliamentary Party, was the chief guest, and guests of honour included Dwarika Prasad Tantia, chairman, GPT Infra Projects Ltd; Sajan Kumar Bansal, MD, Skipper Ltd; and Sajjan Bhajanka, chairman, Century Plyboards (I) Ltd. Mamta Binani, president, ICSI, in her presidential address to the gathering, said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The foundation day of an organisation is a significant date, and particularly for an organisation like ICSI, it is all the more important, as it depicts the journey that started with small steps and now has traversed long distances." She also stated that the foundation day of a professional institute like ICSI is not only an occasion to rejoice, but also to be reborn, to unlearn and relearn - in a way, to rediscover and rejuvenate. The institute and the profession have made steady advances in terms of recognition, multidisciplinary expertise and professional excellence, and on this auspicious day, ICSI re-dedicates itself to its professional values, seeking to achieve greater heights and prepare itself robustly for future challenges. Binani also talked of the history of the institute and acknowledged the great contributions of the past presidents and secretaries of ICSI during its successful 48 years of nation building. She announced that ICSI would be launching its centre of excellence at Rajarhat, Kolkata, where the institute had bought 1.5 acres of land.

The centre is scheduled to be completed within two years.

commerce talent ICAI's Commerce Wizard 2016 test aims to find talented commerce students It is pertinent to think and plan about the future, a future in which the children of the present shall grow up to be the leaders of tomorrow. In order to build up the talent pool, regular qualitative and quantitative assessment needs to be done at various levels.

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has taken an initiative to search for talent in the commerce stream and popularise commerce education across the country amongst secondary, senior/higher secondary, graduate/post graduate students as well as other stakeholders with a special focus on the chartered accountancy course.

Commerce Wizard 2016, a commerce talent search test is being organised by the Career Counselling Committee of ICAI. This would be a diagnostic test that would measure the ability of students to understand concepts. Unlike other tests that only try to determine how much a child knows, the new test would measure how well a student has developed a grasp on the basic concepts of chartered accountancy. A cash reward of more than one million rupees is on offer for meritorious candidates.

Students of class IX, X, XI and XII are eligible to appear for the test, which will be conducted at two levels: Level 1: This will be held on December 11, 2016, where a candidate can appear for an online test from any convenient place through their laptop, desktop, mobile or iPad. Level 2: This will be held on January 8, 2017 at designated centre(s) for shortlisted candidates of level 1 through printed question papers and OMR answer sheets. Â The last date for registration is November 25. For further details, visit icaicommercewizard.com.

ICAI will conduct a test that will not only determine a student's knowledge of commerce but will also test his/her understanding of the subject

M I R A C L ES O F

NUMEROLOGY Honoured to receive Global Achievers Award by his excellency Shri. T.P Seetharam, the Ambassador of India to UAE in Dubai, (Jan2016)

In the bollywood glam-city awarded with Savvy honours woman 2016 from the hands of Dharmendra and Poonam Dhillon.

Received the 'Pride of India' award by the hands of The Ex Chief Minister of Delhi, Smt. Sheila Dixit in april 2016.

‘Titled Indian Nostradamus’ for her precise political predictions, since 2001 for our country.

Sandhiya Mehta is a Ace Numerologist, vast expert and now a worldwide brand who represents success and growth, for herself and for people she counsels. She has expanded the numerological field with her research and knowledge, and with advanced experiences has helped her to help every human soul in return, to guide them to their enchanting dreams, gain power over their fortunes and to come alive.

With an aura au of bright lights and her charismatic personality, she has achieved of what many dream. She is in the field for more than thirty years, and in this journey has helped and exchanged energies and ideas, guided people to lead better lives, has received dozens of honours and recognitions, like ‘The Nari Ratna award, Indira Gandhi Priyadarshani Award, Rastriya Ratan award, Mahila Shiromani award, 4p Brand recognitions, ‘The Global Indian Leaders excellence award and many more such appreciations.

————Numerology is the most accurate predictive science, and has evolved from the ages of people counting stars as numerical references to today where we add up all the calculations and we have an outcome that guides you to the events in your life, and stay prepared for them.“To a person who seeks success, my system will bring success, happiness and prosperity. And to those who are already successful it will bring sustainability, positive reinforcements, further success and introduce to a new and higher perspective and lifestyle.”

The Journey to my methods “I am someone who has evolved, and with every step of my life have just tried to be better in what I love, I don't just predict your future, I communicate, consult and help you empower your energies.”

Every person is having an energy, a combination and each combination is different, hence they have only certain types of energy and lack other ones. This is what makes us human, that we can’t be perfect but we have to strive to be. My exclusive research and study of missing numbers in your birth graph helps me to determine what are the strong energies that I can see in you and uplift the missing energies to suit to your dreams and ambitions. With my years or research and extremely positive results, I help these missing energies in your graph. Its like providing nutrition to a body, by way of simple remedies and self improvement improveme tools that I have developed by myself.

The curious case of 4 & 8 “In my research, nearly 70% people are connected to these numbers, and this loop then influences your further generations too.’

One usually guards themselves because we have all heard a lot about disappointments and delays, sorrows and hardships of 4 & 8 and with 7 they form a trio of these energies. But I see them powerful steroids, to be handled carefully.

Then I will channelize it to positive planning and maximise your fortune’s profits.

Feel blessed if you belong to them, we will empower your life li and, learn through 4 & 8 and reap more fruits of your hard work than you would have previously did.

Handle your energies well, because only in the right hands they will empower with 4 & 8.

Spotlight: what is my remedy?

My remedy is a tool I have devised to balance your energies in your birth graph. By Precisely studying the effect of each energy, and its powers we can efficiently develop the missing energies and help you get successful results.

Its not an overnight change, nothing is a miracle, but I will guide you to work on your missing energies, in return for you to create your own miracle. The universe is balanced, hence if you want to gain something you will have to lose something, in this case we will help you lose your negativities, and help you stay positive, strong and successful.

SANDHIYA MEHHTA

Numerologist and Vastu consultant with activated Third Eye

Is life simpler without 4 & 8: The other side of the story Individually every number has its massive merits but if it doesn’t get the support of your fadic/destiny number it cannot do much for you. 1, 9, 5 & 3 are very powerful numbers and should get magnanimous success as per individual calculations, but if you are still struggling and have faced certain problems you should try and understand your state of energies and detangle the web, to create a free path for your future.

“A bright star has its own energy, but lighting a lamp in the dark is much more meaningful.” We all are a mix of many numbers, their combinations play us differently and affects us differently. We have to empower these combinations in our fortune, to achieve what is extraordinary, which makes us exemplary individuals, that help themselves and in addition help their families, society, help someone in need who looks unto you.

My advice “Knowledge empowers you, and there is nothing more powerful than to understand yourself, your potentials, what holds you back, what drives you forward.” I provide you this knowledge about yourself, though numerology.

Knowledge about finances, career, turnaround years, lucky dates, months, years, things that help you have a strong backup plan for everything in life. “No mantra, fasting, name changes singularly guarantees you anything. Ultimately its you who has to foresee the future, and I help you to do so.” Follow a simplistic solution Meh that I call Sandhiya Mehhta’s remedy system, and we will work on your energies and align them in the right direction Get going with My success road There is a Buddhist saying, “You yourself must strive; the Buddha’s just point the way.” If you believe in yourself and the universe let me just show you a direction, you yourself will lead on the right path and achieve the results within no desired time. I have received tremendous positive feedbacks to have faith in the universe myself.

“I am not god; I just understand my field of work and use it to help people, guide them and provide them with some efficient ways to be happy, peaceful, ever-glorious and a good part of our society & I continue to achieve results with all my clients."- Sandhiya Mehhta.

Are you aware about your Past, present and future?

The only Successful Numerologist, to have devised Self-Help remedies for your fortune for your prosperity, growth and sustainable success.
