Traffic near Indira Gandhi Statue Junction at Prasad's IMAX, Hyderabad

I'm sure pretty much everyone who lives in Hyderabad must have experience the hefty traffic delay at Indira Gandhi Statue junction at the intersection of Prasad's IMAX road & Necklace road.
Specially at peak times during mornings & evenings of weekdays it becomes a pain crossing this intersection. Even traffic police are helpless at times.
The GHMC may have future plans for a Flyover connecting the bridge from Khairtabad junction to road for NTR gardens, this is both expensive & time-consuming outcome.
A simple, quick & cost-effective solution should be lifting the Indira Gandhi's statue 20-25 feets of the ground & completely removing the huge round circle (with grass grown garden), & installing intersection traffic control lights. The time consuming round circle, with messed up vehicles can be avoided & a regulated flow of traffic will be arranged.


72 feet Ganesh Idol in Pune

Everytime we travelled across NH4 (highway between Pune-Mumbai), we kept watching this huge Lord Ganesh's idol which can be noticed from a distance. Situated on a hill top, with its beautiful location & ambiance, its a wonder within itself.


It is situated over Sahyadri Mountains, nearby Talegoan, just after crossing the Toll plaza on NH4 towards Mumbai.

The beautiful idol is 72 feets in height made from Iron, Cement & Concrete with Copper coating. It took 2 years to complete it, weighing about 1000 Tonnes. After climbing 179 stairs, one can get to this beautiful location on a nice evening.

Best Investment Apartment / Piece of land

I've been exposed to land dealings right from my child-hood. I loved the excitement when my dad used to take me to all the deals he made.
If we try connecting dots w.r.t. evolution of Human race, all of the wars were fought for one main reason "Land". Of-course, resources follows with land.

With this belief, a piece of land is considered to be a best investment. But with Urban limits being getting shorter the concept for apartments in India had taken a chain reaction to evolve & be a huge industry with lot of employment & diversion of farmers to construction & related workers.

Since the IT sector boomed in India, lands & houses begun to soar. India still has one great resource, English speaking, smart thinking & less expensive work-force w.r.t. developed countries.
But, is it the only nation with similar attributes? How about China raising its GDP & getting into all manufacturing industries?
Or, the other countries are lagging due to there communication skills? Considering, this fact the IT services sector from India, will be facing a huge competition in years to come.

Also, it is now clear property is booming for one main reason 'IT', professionals aren't able to realize the 'liability' they are building when buying a apartment in form of % interest, taxes, maintenance etc specially when leasing one from bank.
Another factor is about demand & supply, supply will be in abundant than demand when IT services companies starts feeling the pinch in coming years.

Considering the higher currency one needs to shell out, with building partnerships still a piece of land is a great investment to go for, not a piece in a building.

Normal Blood Pressure Range

Following is the chart which would give a brief idea when you have a BP monitor at home which I purchased one for my GrandPa :)
There are plenty available, but I liked the wrist band size, very portable & handy.
