Hi ! Am Back !
A very humble attempt to list out My 10 best and Favorite web sites , out of the many that I have chanced upon while surfing.
I have tired to pick the best out of the best, really this was a tough job.
I have 5 sites on India, and 5 utility sites, i.e sites which can be used as a ready reckoner for tidbits of Info required in daily routine and you end up searching very hard.
Here goes.... hope you like them... Commenting on this review is compulsory(!!!)
India sites
https://presidentofindia.nic.in/
A really fantastic site to know all about the highest office in Indian Democracy.
The panoramic tour of the rashtrapati bhavan is really fantastic.
But the site should have contained more details about the presidential selection procedure, details about the day to day routine of a president and some trivia.
The site I feel is more dedicated to the Rashtrapati bhavan.
But it also contains details about the bodygaurds of the president...some things which we never bothered to know.
The details about the past presidents is also very well compiled.
All in all a fanstastic site to know our own President.
