Frequent readers of this blog will be aware of how we are big fans of Dwarka sub-city here. Largely because we live there and no one else we know does. Or will. Sigh. For instance we were excited a few weeks ago when we discovered that Dwarka houses one of the more popular film related brotherhoods in the country: the Kumar Sanu fans’ club.
But earlier this week we discovered the reason behind that electric feeling one gets as soon as one steps out of a metro train and touches down upon the hallow soil of the sub-city. Doubting? See this picture:
Of the two pillars the left one tells you in which direction you can find some of the major stations on the blue line. By which I mean the major stations of Dwarka, Dwarka Mor, Dwarka Sectors 14, 13, 12 and so on. And to a lesser extent Rajiv Chowk. The right one helps you find:
So if you are in need of 25,000 volts for some emergency purpose you know how to get it. It is somewhere in Dwarka on the blue line. Mind the gap and stand behind the yellow line.
Meanwhile this is a book that was spotted at the in-laws’ place two weekends ago. They tell us it is a masterpiece:
How can you possibly not read a book where some of the letters in the title have dots underneath them? All Sanskrit fiends feel free to leave comments-aha.
Continuing in that cultural and historic vein we were impressed by this well-preserved sculpture at the National Museum last weekend:
While such sandstone pieces are are quite commonplace, it is exceedingly rare to find one with a tiffin box in such pristine condition. Thankfully our curiosity was whetted by the information on the plaque you can see in the picture. Close-up below:
nice read… first to comment 🙂
Well that's really because I didn't leave a comment first…
Post more stuff man-I see you losing readership quite fast if you don't-you're busy-with the book and all-but remember-its this blog and its loyal followers (like me) that got you there-so don't ditch us-please?
I agree with Shashi partially. Post frequently. I wouldn't stop reading though. I open whatay.com mostly everyday to check if there is anything new. If know I'll disappointed & hopeful.
Correction:- that should have been “If no I'll be disappointed & hopeful”
I know guys. I should. But as you will see soon enough in a post I've been slightly pre-occupied with another project for a while. Expect greater traffic from the coming weekend.
Hey man.
Not your regular cool stuff. Better to post only at leisure & with missus' blessings than this random post 🙂 Not sidin standard.
PS: its too early in the morning!
The best part of this post – the tiffin box. Priceless, that! That sculpture reminds me of some episode in Malgudi Days – some angrez guy conned into buying a statue like that. Is this one for sale too? It'll look nice on a plot on the moon 😛

Hey Sid, SO you moved to Dwaraka ? hows the move and hows life in there? Looks like you are having a blast…
Cheers
Srikanth
Not bad actually. I am pleasantly surprised by the number of restaurants and shopping places here. Forty minutes away from everywhere else in Delhi. But it is not without its charms.
Hmm….looks like someone has become very regular in posting stuff…. the 'indibloggies award effect', I suppose? :))
However, I am still left doubting your claims as I cant see any of the pictures. Probably the pictures hate me….
:))
Hey! Whatay baselss rumour. I am disgusted. Cannot write more because
of need to throw up.
If you are about to throw up, I seriously pray that you are not in a Ryanair Aircraft. It seems that they plan to charge you for using the motion sickness bags, the loo and even the flotation device in case of an emergency landing.
😀
I cant believe Dwarka is such a cool place to live in.
Have to talk to Dad about moving there!
😀 All your posts are seriously NSFW..i mean am rolling with laughter looking at the screen when I should scrunching my brows tallying numbers on an excel…
My brother lives in dwarka and my parents in rohini…so yes travelling through the metro..all 3 of them isnt the most fun!
Delhi is just full of funny things to photograph. The missus thinks all cities are. But I secretly know that Delhi is quirkier.
Hehehehehehehehehe! This is our dilli!
Welcome 😀
“comments-aha” – lol..aha … short post tho .. wonder how sanskritites would call Louis Saha
When in delhi, I stayed in a place in student's hostel in a place called “prem nagar” quite close to delhi university .I haven't quite recovered from that.
I highly recommend Mulund next time. (Giggle giggle).
what about mulund
You write much too in-frequently Sidin…
OR i come here much too often.
TOTALLY the former. In fact I've been meaning to talk to you about your infrequent visits to this blog. What IS going on Anna?
I have been living in Dwarka since the past year.. And it is the best place I have ever lived.. Lots of open spaces.. And I had seen a lot of Kumar Sanu fan club posters but I didnt know that Dwarka was famous for it!!
I'm sorry, but i thought you told Mr Advani you won't log in????????????
I did. But he seems to be spending plenty of money on Adsense. And I am too lazy to figure out how to block certain kinds of ads. Will bug Labnol tomorrow…
Lucky You. We had to pay 200 bucks as a bribe to get away from paying a 1000 bucks for clicking photos at Barakhamba and while traveling by the metro !
How USA can Save 145,000,000,000 Dollars Every Year
The USA contributes USD 145 Billion every year to fund Christian Missionaries across the world. Churches across the world spend USD 1.1 Billion towards research aimed at achieving religious conversions. This is for propaganda material in 300 languages about 180 topics. Books and articles are printed in 500 languages. They total 175000. Every conversion costs USD 3300. It does not mean that this amount reaches the Convert. It is the expense incurred in activities related to administration, planning and implementation of the conversion programme. In 1500 A.D, there were 30,00,000 active Christian Missionaries. Their number stands at 64,80,00,000 today. 54% of these people are non-Whites. The strategy is to train non-Whites, provide them with funds and involve them in religious conversions. This is similar to the time when the British employed Indians as Soldiers to rule India!
It costs 145 billion dollars to operate global Christianity, records a book on evangelization. The Church commands 4,000,000 full time Christian workers, it runs 13,000 major libraries, it publishes 22,000 periodicals, it operates 1,800 Christian Radio and TV stations. It runs 1,500 universities and 930 research centers. It has 250,000 foreign missionaries and over 400 institutions to train them. These are 1989 numbers. No wonder Church needs Nazi gold looted from Jews of Europe and drug money to support this gigantic multinational operation.
This idea comes from http://victimofprejudice.blogspot.com/
This idea also wins India's trust by eliminating Evangelical Terrorism.
Share this smart idea with 10 people you know.
