Poll 1 - Prelude to Chakravyuh '11

Please comment your choice.

Chakravyuh '10 ends... but memories will last forever...

Few points that I would like to say from deep within my heart:

• Congratulations to the team हड़ताल बल, for winning the Chakravyuh. Congratulations to Ms. An-kida Mandloi too for being the Abhimanyu, though there were some controversies surrounding that decision from bajrang dal as to how can a female be Abhimanyu (gender issues). There were also questions asked about Jonal-gadhha being the more deserving person? One more issue arising from the Bebo Wega team that there was a clash of identity with player named Abhimanyu in their team. But thankfully, everything was resolved owing to polite negotiation talks by Macho with each of the concerned parties.
• A Big Thanks to sports committee. I think this was the best ever Chakravyuh, setting new benchmark for the coming years, especially when it comes to the promotional activities. I would be more happy if the Sports committee also keeps some prize (i basicaly mean, CASH) for awards like best team name (desi tamanches and videshi bums... dhiskaao dhiskaao :P), prize for underdogs winning an event(frenzy bones for Tennis), best marketing campaign and most vociferous team (you know which team!), etc.
• Kudos to Victorious Secrets who hardly managed to have any victory. However, an all juniors team made with the intention of having fun was what made me proud. Bravo. Keep up the good work next year too and try to reveal the the secret by actually winning something ;)
• Alumni-Us, team formed out of Alumni. RESPECT!
• Message to batch of 2009-11: Do not make enemies out of sports fest. Keep the fights and rivalries on the ground and try not to carry it off the ground. If you cannot switch your moods between on and off the ground, dont play! and ENJOY as much as you can. Participate if you can play any sport. Support IMT teams if you cannot. Do not go home and eat & sleep, you lazy asses.
• If any team wants to play next year under the name 'Tapan Baba ke 25 Chor' (as His excellency Tapan Baba woud not be there), send out an email at tapanbaba24chor[at]gmail.com and express simple intent on this Facebook Group. If shortlisted, you will have to send out the expression of interest, with a mention of the teams competency and decibel levels.

हड़ताल बल heaves a sigh of relief and alumni steal the show!

TB24C lost to maharaddis in a football game of extreme luck for both teams (bad for one and good for other)... however, maharaddis, from a fake player's point of view, needs its luck to be with them for next 2 days to lose gracefully.. because winning really seems far fetched with only shulabh 'shoucahalaya', Amit 'farzee dada' tabha and 'super fast' tripuraj .. so basically, I take an oath to stop writing this blog the day they actually manage to win! (as in, the fake tapan baba player blog) :) .. Also, with TB24C out of the competition, हड़ताल बल heaved a huge sigh of relief as their betting odds of winning the football tournament have improved in their favor.
Btw, anyone who wants to bet about winning teams, contact Baangdu of TB24C if your budget is at least 50 lakhs! For cheaper betting deals, contact maharaddis, they make deals till as low as Rs.3 per kg .. Dont think it was related, but I just loved that crack during opening ceremony, apart from the desi tamancha's 'dhishkaao dhiskaao'!

Another surprise, or u might call it the shocker or 'what the hell was that?!' kind of feeling is when we saw IMT Alumni team playing. I might not be surprised (again) if Alumni-Us scores the maximum points amongst all the IMT teams in men's sports.. we would have loved it if there was some fairer sex participation from the Alumni team! :). But again, hats off to SportsComm and also AlCom for getting them down here to the campus! .. 'LIKE' (blame the use of this word on facebook).. Also, hats off to all the Alums and their family who came down here... 'SUPER LIKE' (suggestion for FB :P )
So, heroes of first day - ALUMNI TEAM and also Franzy bones, who beat FORE, the four time winners of cricket in Chakravyuh. From unreliable sources, it has also come to my notice that Fore was also reduced to four for four by franzy bones... It seems Fore cannot get over their obsession of Fours, apart from the actual fours scored by them in cricket :P.

Keep visiting this space :)

Sportscom, and watchmakers utilising their time!

Sports committee has done a wonderful job of building up the event with perfectly timed activities like sports treasure hunt, banners all around the campus, website and using up social media websites!
Special mention for the chakravyuh song written by Avishek. Brilliant work.


The campus is also buzzing with the sporting activities as chakravyuh is less than a week away. Titans, one of the IMT teams in the hunt of the chakravyuh '10, are seen to be at the fore of practicing sessions. And as their name suggests (watchmakers), they are aptly making full use of their time whether it be playing matches or making matches. I personally declare them winners if they even achieve the latter successfully.


Lazy Bones, at least from the rumours that are to be heard on the campus, suggests that it should have been Frenchy Bones, courtesy a very active विदेशी सम्बन्ध समिति member in the team. I must not indulge into any more comments on them as it has Kuldeep a.k.a God in the team and I don't want to venture into any kind of blasphemous activities.
Random romeos are so random that they are not even aware of the Bores in their own team. But really, for the larger good of the chakravyuh, I really want them to come out in full spirit and full strength (i.e. in numbers), including the Juliets in the teams.

Beagles and Webbies. Well, the acronym may suggest B&W, but their life is very colorful, trust me!!!... By the way, their presence on ground is almost next to non existent. I think sports comm should clarify it to them that the games mentioned are played on the ground (outdoors) and not in front of the desktops (Blame it on EA sports). However, the team has one of the most chill and fun loving people and of course, one of the best IMT's best footballer.


Maharaddis are concentrating hard on preparing their women's team (I mean girls team), as they have rightly realised that their chance of winning chakravyuh is only if the fairer sex shows some magic. Lesson learnt from the Chakravyuh '09!

हड़ताल बल. It is a bit difficult to end a report without their mention. When it comes to their team name, there is a sense of 'foot in mouth' or with a better punch - 'अपने पैर पे कुल्हाड़ी मारना', in almost all the Bores of the team, except one may be. TB24C will make sure that they will not the forget the moment when their team was Christened.
Apart from that, there is another sensational speculation that TB24C strategically planned its conditional camp in Jim Corbett so that one of our football Chors cannot be poached and converted into a Bore. Very Interesting. Go strike force, Go!


Even more मसालेदार खबरे coming up.. stay tuned...


Jay Tapan Baba Ki...

Firing, hiring and self-praising

There has already been news around the campus that macho man of the IMT has been thrown out from the chor gang because of suspicions of baba about being disloyal to the baba's vision and mission. So, the Macho man goes from being a chor to a bore. Interestingly, one of the rumours also says the team named 'strike force' (surprisingly, it literally means हड़ताल बल...well, it keeps me guessing what are they going to do in those 3 days.. :P ) has recruited him in hope for a miracle this time around. One of the bores of the हड़ताल बल, who wished to remain unknown confirmed the news saying that nee-key, the key member of हड़ताल बल (or strike force) has given the macho man a shelter. A very good CSR initiative indeed. Hope खेल समिति  of IMT allocates some chakravyuh points to such initiatives too.

Another of the self proclaimed main teams of IMT, called maharaddis are supposedly holding meeting almost every night just to convey the message to all their bores that they are going to win chakravyuh, as the confidence in the team is seen to be flagging. The scene goes something like this - the leader (whoever he/she is) of the team says 'Who is going to win the chakravyuh?' and the rest bores follow it up with 'maharaddis!!!'... hmm. I totally agree.
