Greetings friends..!! After a long time, I am active on my blog with some information on newly introduced Hop On Hop Off Bus sight-seeing service introduced by Bengalooru BMTC. This service (introduced on the lines of HOHO London ) is one of a kind in India, other cities being Delhi & Mysore (this is what I know). So coming back to point, this service (as it's name says) is Hop On Hop Off service which takes you around 20+ famous landmarks of Bengalooru ; the main point of this service is you can get down at the landmark at your will and board the bus again (from the same landmark) every 30-45 minutes.

The bus starts from Kempegowda Bus Stop locally known as "Majestic" @ 8:30, with other buses after 30 minutes each (i.e., 8:30, 9:00, 9:30, & so on till 7-8 in evening). For more info

It is important to note here that the BJP in Delhi actually won a plurality of both the votes and the seats, though it could not win a majority.  But should this pattern repeat across India's large and mid-sized cities, it is possible that the BJP will be denied nationally in the same manner it was in Delhi.   2nd Effect: The other way of looking at it is to
07/01/2014 Today let me bring you some info on Mumbai....Amchi Mumbai :) Mumbai is noise , a constant chatter. It’s a fusion of the most varied flavours not necessarily palatable; an enigma often sighed upon or at times spoken off in awe. Whatever your impression of this megacity is, a fact that cannot be denied is that Mumbai is a blast! In Mumbai, you may have a hard time locating the quintessential tourist spots unlike Delhi with its large cache of grand Mughal monuments but the fact is that this city has always worked on a beat rather different from the rest of the country.  So, in the true  Mumbaikar  spirit here’s a list of ‘things to do’ while you’re in Mumbai and trust me you’ll come back for more. 1)  Sunrise / Sunset at the seafront Mumbai derives its character from the great sea shores that offer instant relief from the daily grinds of city life. Some of the most popular beaches / seafronts in Mumbai are located at  Juhu, Girgaum  and  Bandra . The Juhu
