I was proud to present the narrow alleys, busy crowds, the temples, mosques, gurudwaras and churches, all showcasing the rich cultural diversity in the heart of Delhi.  Read More »

So Basically our own Government and the People who believe it are Implying that our Founders are Terrorists?

So a friend told me to watch Loose Change 2nd Edition and Final Cut videos. She did not tell me why or anything she said just watch it. After i watched it I was astounded at what it was about.
