अरे हुजूर, वाह ताज बोलीये!!

It's official now...the new 7 wonders of the world have been declared. And after a huge global online and telephonic voting, the taj of India, TAJ MAHAL got selected as one of the seven new wonders of the world. So what more better occasion to start my blog again, which was stagnant for quite some time now. The selection is the reward of all the efforts all the Indians all round the world have taken to vote for our beloved Taj. The other six wonders can be found here. The announcement was made at a grand show in Lisbon today, on the 07/07/07. And our dear Bips was one of the 3 hosts of the show, dressed in a sexy Indian outfit. Among the performers were J Lo.

It was about a week back that news got distributed in emails that the Taj has just 0.07% votes and we need to make a lot of efforts by voting for the Taj. I am sure many of us must have voted more than once, like I did, thanks to the online voting system. And the result is good. I really hope that this brings a huge amount of tourism to India, which is the second fastest growing economy in the world today. The weekend has turned to be really good for India, first the sensex crossing the huuuge 15000 mark and now the Taj getting voted as one of the 7 wonders of the world. I hope we are able to keep the Taj as beautiful as ever, the WONDERful symbol of love.

But wait, thats not all. The new 7 wonders committee has now decided to announce natural 7 wonders of the world. Nominations have begun for the candidates here. The nominations will go on till 08/08/08. The committee will then shortlist 21 candidates and voting will be done for these 21 wonders. So, lets get going guys. We can make a collective effort to nominate some of the best natural wonders in India, like the desert of Rajasthan, valleys of Kashmir, the Himalayas, the Shivling at Amarnath, to name a few.
