From Great Athlete to Dangerous Dacoit, Paan Singh Tomar's biography is really Shocking. It tells us that how India treats its sports heros except Cricketers. Paan Singh Tomar was the wonderful athlete then he was forced to become deadly dacoit.
Paan Singh Tomar was trained as a distance runner while working with the Indian Army. He was a seven times national steeplechase champion during the 1950s.[1] As a subedar with the Bengal Engineers at Roorkee, he represented India in the 1958 Asian Games. His record in the 3,000 m steeplechase stood for almost a decade.[2] According to Joginder Singh Saini, former chief national coach, at 6 feet high, Paan Singh Tomar could cross water jump in a single movement, whereas other athletes stepped on the obstacle to regain balance and add momentum.[3]
In the village where he was born there was a land dispute between Paan Singh and his relatives. He turned to banditry and soon became notorious. He had a reward of 10,000 rupees to his head. Paan Singh was killed in police ambush in 1981.
Movie "PAAN SINGH TOMAR" is a Synopsis of what Few Sports Personalities had & experiencing in their Life, who were never remembered by Indian Govt after awarding just a "MEDAL". Medal is not the "Recognition" which every sport person looks for, he looks for his Value in his own country and by his Govt. I feel Indian Govt has completly Failed in Recognizing his Sports Men/Women. Our Ministers are ......just Busy in Filling their Pockets for there Future, they do not care about "People" or "Nation" !!
If a small part of SCAM was used for these Sports Personalities, their life would have Simple and Happy. People Turn against Govt because sometime they were deceived by Govt/System, Best example "Naxals" back in 1960-90s in Andhra Pradesh, Orissa etc.

David DeAngelo, author of "Double Your Dating", says there is nothing worse than making mistakes that will later be regretted and one way to avoid them is to remember the following, Bullz-Eye.com reported.
First of all, a man should never ask a woman if he can kiss her, as she will only say, a man should never "ask" for a kiss.
Asking her for a kiss will only make a man look like a boy, which is what a woman is not interested in, and even if she says "yes", it could mean she is just being polite, while on the inside her attraction meter will read a firm, "No".
Secondly, a man should never ask a woman if he can take her out on a date sometime, as she would like to be with a man who is a leader and in control, not someone who asks her permission to hit on her.
A man should confidently ask a woman out, by simply saying, "We should hang out... what's your number?" or tell her about a specific place he wants to take her to.
Thirdly, a man should never brag about the car he has or the kind of house he lives in, as it would seem like he is trying hard to impress her.
Women would be far more impressed by a man's material possessions if he does not mention them in conversation.
The Fourth thing a man should never ask a woman is what she wants to do for the night, as she likes a "man with a plan".
The man needs to have a game plan before he calls her, so as to ensure that she will not be burdened with having to think about what to do.
Fifthly, a man should never ask a woman if she likes him, as this is one phrase that turns off a woman completely.
He should just assume that she likes him, and never ask the question, as it would look like he has no confidence.
The Sixth tip is that a man should never ask a woman why she never answered his message, as one, it would show that he cared she did not reply back, and two, it would give her a guilt trip, which is seen as insecurity by women.
The Seventh tip is that a man should never ask a woman how men she has slept with, as this shows that he is suffering from insecurity.
The Eighth tip is that a man should never hint at a future date with a woman he has just met, as she not only wants but needs a guy who is somewhat of a "challenge", and will lose interest if she senses she has won.
The Ninth tip is that a man should never end a phone conversation with a woman with a "next step", as firstly it would kill any spontaneity by being predictable, and secondly he would kill any chances of her calling him.
The Tenth tip is that a man should never talk bad about a woman's guy friends especially if he hasn't met them and doesn't know her very well, as this is the fastest way for her to mark him as "insecure".

Pingali Venkayya (Telugu: ŕ°Şింŕ°—ŕ°łి ŕ°µెంŕ°•ŕ°Ż్ŕ°Ż) (August 2, 1876 - July 4, 1963) was the designer of the Indian national flag. He was born in Bhatlapenumarru, near Masulipatnam or the present day Machilipatnam of Andhra Pradesh, India to Hanumantharayudu and Venkataratnamma. After high school at Machlipatnam, he went to Colombo to complete his Senior Cambridge. On returning to India, he worked as a railway guard, then as a government employee at Bellary, and later moved to Lahore to join the Anglo-Vedic college to study Urdu and Japanese.
He was an accomplished person on many fronts. He was immensely knowledgeable in geology and obtained a doctorate in it. He was an authority on diamond mining in Andhra Pradesh and was popularly known as 'Diamond Venkayya'. He also specialised in agriculture and spent most of his fortune in experimenting with ginger plantations in Kurnool district in Andhra Pradesh. He served in the British Indian army during the Anglo-Boer wars in South Africa. It was there he came in contact with Mahatma Gandhi and was influenced by his ideology.
The years 1921-31 constitute a heroic chapter in not only Pingali Venkayya's life but also in the history of the freedom struggle of Andhra. The AICC met at a historic two day session at Bezwada (March 31 and April 1, 1921). It was at this session that this frail middle aged gentleman, Pingali, approached Gandhi with the flag he designed for India. Pingali?s flag was made of two colours, red and green representing the two major communities of the country. Thus the Indian flag was born but it was not officially accepted by any resolution of the All India Congress Committee. Gandhi?s approval made it popular and it was hoisted at all Congress sessions. Hansraj of Jallandar suggested the representation of the charkha, symbolising progress and the common man. Gandhi amended, insisting on the addition of a white strip to represent the remaining minority communities of India.
Artical on Pingali Venkayya (Telugu Version)
Interpreting the colours chosen for the national flag, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan explained the saffron colour denoted renunciation or disinterestedness of political leaders towards material gains in life. The white depicted enlightenment, lighting the path of truth to guide our conduct. The green symbolised our relation to the soil, to the plant life here on which all other life depends. The Ashoka wheel in the centre of the white strip represented the law of dharma.
Speaking philosophically, he remarked that the national flag ought to control the principles of all those who worked under it. The wheel denoted motion and? India should no more resist change as there was death in stagnation?. Pingali Venkayya, the illustrious visionary, the designer of the national flag died, unhonoured on July 4, 1963, in conditions of poverty. It was only a few years ago that his daughter began to receive pension from the government. There is not even a memorial in his hometown Machilipatnam to the man who brought such glory to Andhra. Even the original house has been razed to the ground.
Some Specialists believe that the world's largest astronomical calendar was drawn by the Nazcas on the dry plains of southern Peru. While others believe that the lines drawn on the expansive wastes are huge birds, animals and geometric figures. What exactly do these lines signify - nobody knows. Yet they are laid across the desert by the Nazca Indians 1,500 years ago - even long before man could fly, although now-a-days it is crossed by the Pan American Highway.
The Nazca region lies between the Pacific coast of Southern Peru and the Andean foothills. The entire region is made up of strange lines - some in geometric shapes, some in the shape of animals and birds. The lines and pattern on the desert floor seems to be the work of a mad geometrician and a giant. This is one of the most baffling aspect. The archaeology and the archaeologists have no satisfactory answers.
Maria Reiche, who spent her entire life studying the mysterious Nazca lines.
Despite all the research, no plausible explanation has been offered. On the other hand it has facilitated the birth of innumerable suppositions and superstitions. Some people believe that these drawings must have been made by unknown extra-terrestrial beings. While others point out that the Peruvian desert was being used as an astroport by space craft thousands of years ago.
The lines are more bewildering as sometimes lines could only be seen from an altitude of above 1,000 ft. and some designs are so closely intermingled, that they give a picture of some sciencefiction novel. In addition to these drawings and incomprehensible lines, the Nazca region has almost experienced no rain for 10,000 years. But this apparently has been due to a scientific reason - the cool prevailing winds from the ocean could hardly pick up the moisture from the chilly waters of the Humboldt current. Furthermore, the erosion on the slopes of Peru is quite similar to the space probes on Mars. To test it scientifically, the NASA (National Aeronautical and Space Administration) has sent a team of scientists to study the erosion and the possibility of life on Mars.
It was only in 1941 that these mysterious, enigmatic lines attracted attention. Dr. Paul Kosok of Long Island University was the first one to examine the land. He examined the plain from the plane and named the unique area as "the largest astronomy book in the world"
His work was followed by a German mathematician and astronomer, Maria Reiche. She studied the area for more than 30 years and is now 70 years old. She criss-crossed it step by step on triangular, quadrangular, or parallel lines and sometimes on zig zags. She researched exhuastively and drew the conclusion that tons of small stones must have been moved to create the outlines of each line. And the positioning must have been done in webaccordance with a calculated plan. To draw lines, she proposed the theory that they must have stretched strings from posts. These posts are still visible. And the carbon -14 method has dated these post back to A.D. 500. Maria Reiche also found out from the designs the unit of measurement that the Nazcas must have used.
The two members of the International Explorers Society of Coral Gables, Florida based their ideas on a painted Nazca ceramics. These two members - Julian Knott and Jim Woodman, said that the pieces of pottery invariably depicted an airshipThese two men along with some other members believed that Nazcas could not have composed such complicated designs without having an aerial view.
Some other researchers have tried to reason out the secret of Nazcas by studying tombs in the Paracas region. They believe that the nearby site, Necropolis, dates to the same period and was used as the burial place for nobles and priests.In the excavation, about 400 mummies, wrapped in shrouds and elaborate cloaks have been found. The date of their burial is estimated to be about 2000 years ago.
Some Peruvian archaeologists share the views of Paul Korok and Maria Reiche. They agree that Nazca drawings are an astronomical calendar. It is also presumed by some scholars that the Nazcas used to read the news of different weather signs from the flight patterns of seabird. In fact, Indians of Peru still believe in the magical powers of animals and they see the shapes of these animals in the stars. A few theorists believe that the figures of the desert zoo are reproductions of the shapes made by groups of stars. Another theory is that they could have been the magical religious cult expressed in a theatrical ritual.
Of the reason behind triangular, trapezoidal or quadrangular 'runway' opinions differ. According to some they were places of assembly. Others believe that they must have been astronomical observations. And according to some it would have been a ground, guided by the spirits. Another group believes that burnt offerings were made to the Nazca Gods there. There are innumerable beliefs. Theorists have not arrived on a single platform for agreement.
Astronomer Gerald S. Hawkins used computer in 1960 to check the astronomical interpretation of the Nazca Complex. The result was disappointing. The computer totally negated the research of so many years. It proved that Nazca lines were not designed as a calendar.
The question still remains - what did these unique lines signify? However, Peru government has taken precaution to avoid spoiling these designs. It has banned walking or driving over the area except by special permission. The tourists are allowed to see the enigma from a roadside observation tower.
Imagin you are travelling in Train which has NO Cabin, Windows, Doors, Washrooms, Ticket Collectors, Thiefs... Only Fresh Air !!

The Telangana Rebellion was a Communist led peasant revolt that took place in the former princely state of Hyderabad between 1946 and 1951. This was led by the Communist Party of India.
The revolt began in the Nalgonda district and quickly spread to the Warangal and Bidar districts. Peasant farmers and labourers revolted against the Nizam and the local feudal landlords (jagirdars and deshmukhs) who were loyal to the Nizam. The initial modest aims were to do away with the illegal and excessive exploitation meted out by these feudal lords in the name of bonded labour. The most strident demand was for the writing off of all debts of the peasants that were manipulated by the feudal lords.
Nizam's resistance to join Indian Union
At the same time the Nizam was resisting the Indian government's efforts to bring the Hyderabad state into the Indian Union. The government sent the army in September 1948 to annex the Hyderabad state into Indian Union. The Communist party instigated the peasants to use guerrilla tactics and around 3000 villages (about 41000 sq. kilometres) came under peasant-rule. The landlords were either killed or driven out and the land was redistributed. These victorious villages established communes reminiscent of Soviet mir (social)s to administer their region. These community governments were integrated regionally into a central organization. The rebellion was led by the Communist Party of India under the banner of Andhra Mahasabha. Few among the well-known individuals at the forefront of the movement were great leaders like Puchalapalli Sundaraiah, Makineni Basavapunaiah , Chandra Rajeswara Rao, Raavi Narayana Reddy, Arjula Ramana Reddy, the Urdu poet Makhdoom Mohiuddin, Sulaiman Areeb, Hassan Nasir, Bhimreddy Narasimha Reddy, Mallu Venkata Narasimha Reddy , Mallu Swarajyam , Arutla Ramchandra Reddy and his wife Arutla Kamala Bai. The violent phase of the movement ended in 1951 after the accession of Hyderabad into the Indian Union. This was the time when Razzakar Movement was started by Nizams, which was very violent and was also responsible for forcible conversions of religion.
Annexation of Hyderabad State
The rebellion and the subsequent police action lead to the liberation of Hyderabad state from the Nizam's rule on 17 September 1948 and the dominion was merged into Indian Union eventually. Elections of 1952 led to the victory of Congress Party in Hyderabad state. Burgula Ramakrishna Rao was first chief minister of the Hyderabad state from 1952 to 1956. And in 1956, Hyderabad State was merged with the Andhra state to form the present day Andhra Pradesh State..
In popular Culture
• Krishan Chander's famous Hindi/Urdu novella "Jab Khet Jage" was based on the Telangana Rebellion. Film-maker Gautam Ghose gained acclaim 1979 when he used the story as the basis for his first feature film, the Telugu language "Ma Bhoomi". • "Bandenka Bandi Katti" is a famous song of the rebellion, written by Suddala Hanmanthu (Father of Suddala Ashok Teja, National award winner), and was known more as Bandi Hanmanthu
It was Monday 8th March between 3:30 to 4:00 PM when it started paining at Right-Lower abdominal. It was Normal and small pain which started and was going to be continues. I was not able to sit for long time in chair and concentrate on my work as the pain started increasing. Intially I thought this could be due to Gas, Kidney or Motion problem. When Praveen and myself started a discussion on what is causing this pain, possibility of Gas Trouble ruled out as Pain due to Gas Trouble happens above Abdomen and Below Chest region. Option of Stones in Kidney ruled out because pain due to stones in Kidney happens around back side of your west either on right or left side. Option of Motion ruled out as I knew and finally the only option left out was "Appendix Pain". We did not knew where it happens in body but knew that it happens somewhere near our Stomach.
Around 6:30 PM, I Spoke to Sateesh and informed him that I am not feeling well and want to leave for home and He agreed for the same. Now next biggest challenge for me was "How to go Home Back?" I sent an email to Balaji for a Cab to drive back home stating my health condition. I got cab at 9:00 PM and started to home. It was 9:50 PM when I reached home, My head was banging like anything and Stomach was helping in making my day worst. I took Anacin Tablet which is for Headache and soon after I fell asleep. Anacin is kind of pain killer, may be that is the reason, this tablet suppressed Headache and Pain in stomach also.
Admitted in Yashodha Hospital
Around 1:00 AM in midnight and I woke up again and that is when I started having real pain which I was not able to control. From 1 to 2 AM, I was just ling on bed by changing many posture all around the bed, also did drink glass of water but still could not manage to bear it. Around 2:30 AM I had vomiting after which I felt little bit relaxed but it did not stand long. After 15 mins it started paining again. The pain was showing miserable and I was waiting for Morning so that we can go to Doctor in our location. I did want to disturb my parents because it was midnight and did not wanted to tense them in this odd time. But around 3:00 AM Pain went beyond my control and I had to wake my parents. My dad rushed to get a Auto to go to Hospital. Soon he returned with Auto and We started for Hospital. We rushed to Yashoda Hospital Secunderabad at 3:40 AM.
I was taken to Emergency Ward where we reported Pain in Lower right abdominal with Vomiting. Doctor suspected and told that this could be Appendix pain. They collected the Blood sample to find the Blood Group. They found Sugar level 147, which is very high compare to Diabetics patient. They gave me Pain killer injections and asked me take rest on bed. Soon around 4:45 they took me for ultrasound Scan Test for confirming. I was fine, able to walk on my own and talk as in normal days... They brought wheal Chair and asked me to sit in order to go to Ultrasound Scan Room. I refused to sit and told that I am happy to walk as its just couple of steps from here, but Nurse "Smijju" refused and forced me to sit. I felt odd when I was sitting in Wheelchair as of old man of 99 years who cannot walk at all. In 15 scan was done and we were back to emergency ward. Doctors confirmed that its clear case of appendix and left 2 options, First to go for operation to eliminate the Appendix from my body and Second to take medicines to control the pain and Appendix too but cannot give guarantee when it will revert back and if reverts back then it would be very saviour. And if we are away from City then this could be more worse now.
My parents decided to go for First option i.e Eliminating it by Operation. Doctors were ready to operate today around 11 AM. I Called my friend Sudhir who was still in office working Night shift, to get my Insurance Number which was saved in my computer. Quoted the Insurance ID and processed the Operation under the insurance coverage. I got operated at 1:00 PM for 45-60 Mins and shifted to Post Operation Ward where I Kept under observation with Respiration Support and Glucose until anesthesia effect was decreased. Post surgery I had to live on Glucose liquid for 5 days... No Food, No Tea, No Biscuit Nor Juice..... Only on Glucose Liquid. Since Operation I was lying on Bed.... which I did not like at all. I can't bend, sit nor walk.... Now That Sucks !!!!
Medicines were also very horrible experience... Every Morning and Evening I was given Antibiotic and Painkiller Injections injected through nerves where Glucose was already being injected.
I knew that someday I have to send this mail but didn’t knew that it will be so early.

19th Sep 2004 is most important day in my life. Yes, that's when I stepped into Professional Life. This was my first day of my First Job.

After training period we were evaluated and decided whether we are fit for JOB or not. Finally all of us cleared and was asked to report at Santhome Office for further process or for Project allocation. This was worst experience of my life. Not sure what went wrong in Company but I could sense many people were in deep trouble. Rumours were that the Suth Hired many people expecting a big project which was about to come to company but in final stages we lost it. Now biggest challenge for company was what to do with Freshly recruited people. They were not is Hundreds they were in thousand, there were around 1000 people who were hired for the same. We were asked to report at various office of Suth in Tidal Park, Santhome, Velachery etc. Every time we went there were only handful people who were selected and rest hundreds were sent back. This went on for 3 months from Sept to Dec. Finally we, group of Telugu boys decided to leave back to Hyderabad as it was not helping us in anyway staying without salary in Chennai. We decided to have a word with HR Head who was also from Hyderabad thought she can help in anyway. That meeting turned out fruitful and she asked us to report Velachery Office.
As instructed we group of People reported at Velachery Office and we were placed in HP Tech Support Process. They started the Technical training and for 2 weeks and on 27th Dec We pushed on floor for taking calls with out any Experience. We were told that they are taking us to show the Floor and will listen to live calls for couple of hours. Whole Picture changed when they asked to grab a Headset from Box located in corner of the floor and were handed over to our respective Team Leader. My TL just me to follow him and walked me to last desk in his row where a phone was free and asked to me connect my headset to phone. Once I connected the Headset, he just simply pressed some button quickly, Phone Rang and TL asked me to pick up the call. My Mind was like in BlackHole.... I was not able to think for some time... We were told that it is Just visit of floor... but they making us to take calls for which we were mentally Not Ready......

On my behalf my TL press the answered button and said read the opening script. I was still not able to understand what to do.... In seconds My face and body was wet with sweat even though AC was running at 24 Degree C. My TL shouted again "Read the dam Opening Script, Customer is listening to you". That was True, Customer was saying... "Hello Hello... anybody there...". I gathered all my Strength and start reading the our HP Opening Script. "Thank for calling HP Total Care, Today its my goal to make sure that you are completely satisfied with our support, While I am helping you, please let me know if you need me to slow down or repeat any statement.... etc etc..." - Not sure if this was the correct statement... its more than 5 yrs now I have recollected it. Since this day I was WORKING in Company. Very soon I was comfortable in answering calls and troubleshooting issues over phone. While working I came to know the real CallCenter environment.

Trust me it is not easy to work in CallCenter. For People it looks a very fashionable job but People who Work understands what is a Real CallCenter Job. In order to work in Call center, one need lot of patients, Should be able to handle pressure, should be able manage the him self, should be able work in Night which is most difficult part. It was Christmas season which I started taking calls on Floor. HP had told that in Jan there will lot calls as Sales of computers increased in Dec due to Christmas. It turned out true and on Jan 1st and 2nd We saw call trend jumped 40% compared regular trend in last few months. Now Suth had to increase the staff so that this excess calls can be answered. They rolled out 6th Day Working Program for 6 Weeks to cover the excess calls. According to this process, associate who are willing to work on 6th day for 6 weeks, they will be paid 20K extra. Many of the associates worked and made good use of this program. Even I did and with this 20K, I bought my First Laptop. Though Laptop was 30K, rest I converted in EMI. I bought Acer Travelmate 2304 laptop in Feb 2005 with set of Sound system of Adcom 2500 PMPO. This was like buying a Home Theater for our room. We (My Brother Ravi, Roommates Kiran, Jaypal and ____ ) were very excited.
Days passed and after 6 months of time, I planned to move to Internal Helpdesk Team hoping more technical work then being very limited in HP Process. I spoke to my Manager and Applied under IJP (Internal Job Posting) process. Finally I got through and started working for Sutherland Internal Helpdesk called IHD. It was also great team to work with and job responsibilities. While working in IHD I started feeling Home Sick as my brother also left Chennai and was all alone with my roommates. I started making up my mind to start searching a job in Hyderabad. I updated my Resume in Naukri and with in 1 week i got a call from Keane which turned out my Second Job !!
It was now my turn to walkin into Banglore office to train our new fellows in our new office. I was secheduled for a week training from 1st Feb to 06th Feb. Though it was my second visit to bangalore but it will first time i will see bangalore properlly. My flight was secheduled to arrive at 7:30 AM but landed at 8:00 AM. This happened due to unwanted 'Time Pass" in Air as our flight was in 5th position in the list of Flights which were about to land.
1st Feb 2010 Anyway I reached Office directly from Airport insted of Hotel. After travelling for 1 hr 30 mins in Traffic I had to run to office directly as I was running out of time as per my sechedlued Training Plan. I had a Grand Welcome by Andrew (My Project Director) in New office, even he was just week old in this new office. We walked into his cabin and started having discussion about Teams status.
We found that there is lot of hard work which needs to be done to build up our team. Let me tell you we started working right from the moment we came out of that meeting. I knew what needs to be done and I jumped into my work...
After a day's work, around 11:00 PM we decided to Hotel. We were lucky that Dining hall was not closed but was about to close, we were last "Lucky" cutomer whom they servered dinner. We had Dinner and decided to have a Beer. We then moved to Bar counter and we again turned out be "Lucky" last customer. We have to order 2-2 mugs of Beer and move our self out of Bar and sit in Open garden lawn. It was very chilled outside.. I was shiverring like anything and on to that i was having Chilled Beer. I know i am Crazy sometimes but i love to be like this... this what I am...
Fianlly by 1:00 AM we finished our beer with some "Corporate Discussion", Andrew had very importent call to attend.. he had to call his Family and Infact I also had very very very import work to complete... that is Sleeping. I came back to my room, called up Alarm Service in Hotel and asked to wake me up at 8:00 AM in Morning.
By the way it was my first experience in 5/3 Star hotel, My room was good, it had big LCD TV, Soft Bed, Flurocent Lights on Walls.
On all, I liked the room and was good to stay for a week.
