TATA CRUCIBLE LUCKNOW (review)

Record No.1- Maximum no.of teams participated in the quiz . A total of 314 teams.

Record No.2 – First time in the history of TC , 2 prelims had to be conducted. Each prelim consisted of 165 teams.

Record No. 3 – Maximum Number of Institute, 78 in all total.. anyway this is a normal number of team participating form Pune ( as per the trend from last 3 years), and we all know how Pune boost of being a Educational city.

Record No. 4 - First time in the history of any Tata quiz, a team scored 20/20 in the prelims.

Anyway for me the most amazing thing was a team from Gorakpur, who qualified for a wild card. Final saw good battle between two IIM team and a IIT, Amity Bio tech team and Lucknow's very own BBD.

Giri’s concluding words best captured the magnitude of quizzing cult in lucknow.

“ Today, its not IIML who has won. Its Lucknow who has won”. How often you see venue like Taj be such a place, with no empty space at the venue and also at the parking lot.

Next time they need to move at a bigger place.

Great work done by Giri ( & his Graycaps) Tata's esp TCS...

Anyway another update is that the National ( as well as the International ) final will be on 5th of April at Taj Place Mumbai and if all goes well Chief Guest will be Mr. Ratan Tata

Aam aadmi ke badhte kadam, har kadam pe Bharat buland..Jai ho

Congress has come out with three 60-second films that seek to show the party leading its multitudes to progress. From its 2004 slogan of ‘Congress ka haath, aam aadmi ke saath,’ the party has moved on to ‘Aam aadmi ke badte kadam; har kadam par bharat buland.’ Loosely translated, it would mean the common man marches ahead and every step he takes makes India stronger.

With 'Jai Ho' music these video also shows the mandatory pictures of happy children, prosperous farmers and communal harmony etc etc, to showcase the India Shinning (ohh sorry India’s growth story).
Song is penned by famous hindi poet Ashok Chakradhar and sung by Balram.
