Picture courtesy Advantage Media Academy.
Last Saturday I was invited for the inauguration of Patna’s first media academy. It offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in media related fields.
The campus which is situated on Bailey road looked quite impressive and while I could not see the State-of-the-art studio , I believe it is quite well equipped. It is an arm of Advantage Group which is one of the oldest media institutions in India.
They had quite an impressive gathering of professionals from the media field and they promise to impart quality education at the center.
The Chief Minister spoke quite well at the inauguration. Whenever I hear him speak, I think that he is one of the very few class of politicians who actually have vision and have the welfare of the masses in their heart .
You can learn more about the institute at their website here.

I today saw a demo of BSNL 3G services in Patna and while I could only test the video calling feature, I was quite impressed. The picture quality was quite good and video was smooth , not jerky.
Currently, 2g to 3g migration is not available according to the Customer Representative there so you cannot get it on your existing number. You have to buy a new SIM card. 3G prepaid sim will be available from the 6th here and postpaid sim a week or so later.
He also told me that in another 20-25 days 2g to 3g migration will be available so you can get 3G on your existing number. For a FAQ, see here.

Some time back Ferns & Petals opened their outlet in Patna in Boring road opposite Hira Panna. I have gone there a few times and the variety of flowers it has is better that the other florists and the rates are more reasonable too. They also have a fair collection of dry flowers . To me dry flowers don’t make sense because the whole point of flowers is their fragrance and freshness but Different strokes for different folks…

As Patna gears up for the festival of Chatt, the cleanliness in the city has to be seen to be believed. The place is squeaky clean and one would be hard put to find a piece of garbage anywhere on the roads.
Why can’t the place be as clean all year round as it is now?
