I think the politician or ministers of Arunachal Pradesh should'nt come out of the state until they r perfect in any one official language .i.e hindi or english.We feel embarassed for such leaders when we see our leaders giving speech before whole India. Plez..atleast be thorough in any one language.

For a longtime time I carried along with me the unwelcoming feelings of names given to public properties.
I wanted to reach out my point of view to all Arunachalis, but for Arunachalnews.com, it would not have been possible. Thanks to Arunachalnews team.
Well, what I am trying to reflect is the Ganga Lake and for that matter, others as well.
Ganga Lake is actually “Gekar Sinyi” which I believe is a Nyishi connotation. But to many of us Ganga Lake is more common. Why? This is because of the media and the government’s apathy towards local people. How and when did Ganga originate there? Ganga as I know is a holy river in U.P and names of some people.
To me Gekar Sinyi is more than a mere name. Just a peek into it, you will find that there is a history associated with it. I feel I am a part of it. The Nyishis never heard about the name Ganga before the Hindi was introduced.
Likewise there is Ganga Market, Akash Dip, Rajiv Gandhi Univ. and Gandhis and Gandhis and the list goes own.
I wonder if read more »

Ok, many of you may not know him, but from this moment on you will. Dr. Joram Beda cleared the UPSC CSE. I don't know the technical way of putting it, but he's an IAS officer now. Quite a feat of achievement. I believe there are only a couple of IAS (UPSC CSE) officers from Arunachal.
Maybe this is old news? I am not sure. But I got the word about it just a few hours ago. So.
Congrats Dr. Beda, we are proud of you! read more »

CALCUTTA, India -- Indian military and civil authorities used speed boats to ferry food and drinking water to hundreds of thousands of villagers cut off by monsoon floods that have killed at least 27 people in the past week, officials said Wednesday.
Commuters make their way through a flooded street after heavy rainfall in the northern Indian city of Mathura June 17, 2008. The monsoon arrived at least two weeks early in northern India, bringing respite to its baking plains, but in Assam it swamped about 500 villages in waist-deep water, leaving about 300,000 people homeless. [Xinhua]
Local authorities also sought to use air force helicopters to drop supplies to more than 50,000 people stranded in nearly 200 villages in West Bengal state where the flooded Keleghai river has cut off road links, said Kalyan Mitra, a district official. The affected villages in West Midnapore district are about 170 kilometers (105 miles) west of Calcutta, the capital of West Bengal state.
