Reality byte
Road rage is a comparatively new phenomenon in Chandigarh, but it is getting real. You read about people getting beaten up simply because they did not promptly let the other vehicle pass.

Yes, we are talking about Kharga House, which turned 100 this year. Official residence of the corps commander, the residence has undergone many renovations over the years, however, it has retained its old charm.
At your service
Customers indeed are a deciding factor of any market scenario. And British Library too realised this fact. Their customer service week starting October 26-31 at all centers in India and Sri Lanka is designed to raise awareness of customer service and the vital role it plays within the organisation. During the week, British Library zeroed in on the service that they delivered and also took the opportunity to say thanks to their customers for their continuing patronage as well as the staff for their contribution to delivering excellent customer service.

Quilted comfort

Unrealised dreams
London Dreams, directed by Vipul Shah, written by journo turned screenwriter Suresh Nair, is unimaginative and extremely tepid. The script appears to be a hastily jumbled together series of plotlines, which were forged on the director's fancy.
