BRITISHERS NAMED US INDIA: The name India has got nothing to do with our colonial past. Since we are the land of the Sindhu we were referred to as Hindu/Indus/Indica/India by travelers across centuries. 'India' can be attributed to the Greeks. The Biological term for the mango tree is Magnifera Indica because Indica is how the Latin people referred to the Indian region.

Tamizhachi Thangapandian is facing anti-incumbency for being invisible doing the Chennai Rains. So in all likelihood she will be getting under 30% vote share. Now let's take the AIADMK candidate J. Jayavardhan. During the [----] wave election he polled 41.34%. And managed 26.94% in [----]. This is a depleted AIADMK. And there's no perceptible wave in the favour of EPS.

Got married bought a flat working on those EMIs. And then there was this guy from Kerala. Adi Shankara had walked across an entire subcontinent on foot defeated every scholar he encountered in debate unified a splintering religion founded four monasteries that still stand today written the definitive commentaries on Hinduism's holiest texts and cracked the code to exit the simulation of reality itself. All by 32."

Gemini Pro may be the least hyped of the four but it delivered the strongest logical reasoning performance"
