No time for Love
Anandita Gupta
Always sprinting to cope with the fast pace of life, many working
couples in the city are missing out on togetherness
They
juggle
work and familial responsibilities astoundingly well. Their list of
achievements would turn anyone green with envy — frequent promotions,
handsome appraisals, seven-figure salaries, a two kanal house, designer
furniture and the latest gizmos.

Adventure in thin air

Juley!
I am just back from Leh and, despite being jaded because it was my sixth
visit, I still had a great holiday. Ladakh offers mountaineering,
trekking, rafting, and mountain biking. It also stages events. In August
2003, I covered the Great Tibetan Marathon for The Tribune (http://www.

Small wonder
Rajiv Bhatia
Meet
seven-year-old Gurpriya Kaur. The rising talent has bagged more prizes
than her age in competitions.At the age of two when children of her age
are busy playing with toys, Gurpriya would go through Gurmat classes —
the study of the Sikh religion. She is still enthusiastic about
religious study. No wonder, the student of the Chandigarh Baptist School
has mostly bagged first and second positions in all Gurmat related
competitions. However, she does not ignore her studies. “I am
eager to learn our culture first. I know how our forefathers guarded and
propagated our culture,” she says.
