4 most haunted college campuses in India



They say there are two types of spirits that haunt places – those that are like a cassette that play the same scene over and over again. These presences pass through you but will not harm you.
There is, however, a more intelligent type who want to contact you. The second type is a more dangerous type. Your fear will draw them to you like a magnet.
Today we will take a look at hauntings in a place that one would least expect them – in universities and colleges across India.
—————————
#1: Calcutta Women’s College, Calcutta University—————————
Alipore is one of Kolkata’s poshest areas. It is also where one of India’s most famous ghosts can be found.
Warren Hastings was the first governor general of British India from 1773 to 1785. His residence is the site of Calcutta Women’s College.
This spirit makes its presence felt on New Year’s Eve when a carriage with four horses draws up to the house he loved so much.
Hasting’s presence has been felt rushing up the staircase looking for lost documents – after bribery charges were levelled against him.  
—————————#2 University of Pune—————————
Pune University has a beautiful campus. The buildings are colonial and university is surrounded by trees. Tucked away in one corner of the campus is a grave bearing the name of Alice Richman.
Her grave has the inscription: “Born Melrose South Australia November 13 1856 and died at this spot of cholera at this very spot January 1886″.
Not everyone believes that Alice died of cholera. There is speculation that she was killed while riding a horse or that she committed suicide.
Whatever the reason, Alice does not rest in peace.
There have been sightings of a woman dressed in a white gown walking around the area.
—————————
#3: St Bede’s College, Shimla —————————
St Bede’s College is an all girls’ college that is known across India for one its graduates rather than its ghost. It is the institute that Preity Zinta attended.
But there is also a presence associated with the institute.
Girls have reportedly heard mysterious sounds from the dining room every night around midnight. 
—————————#4: SNDT, Girls College, Mumbai
—————————

We have read about about spirits who wander alone so far. The one around SNDT Girls College in Juhu is of a different type.
For starters, there is more than one presence and it is a regular occurrence.
Residents living nearby say that they hear a female teacher reciting multiplication tables around 2 am. This is followed by the sound of slapping and children wailing.
Frustrated with their sleep being disrupted, 10 boys decided to find out the reason behind the noise. As they came near the dilapidated structures, there was silence.
Thinking that the presences had stopped, the boys went home…and the wailing started again.
No one had the guts to go back.

Yes, E-Wallets are better than cash: How to setup and use e-wallets.

Image
There is chaos on the street, in the banks, ATMs and petrol pumps. We expect the scene to remain the same for coming days or weeks. But there is an easy way out of this, especially for all those who have a smartphone. Tuesday, November 8, was a usual day till about 8pm in the evening when PM Modi said that  Rs 500 and Rs 1000 currency notes will cease to be legal tenders from the midnight in India. That was the midnight of November 8. What followed that decision, presumably made to fight black money, has been a blurry slideshow of long queues outside ATMs, petrol pumps and just about everywhere. While many smartphone users are aware of mobile wallets and are probably using them, many are not. And even those who are using mobile wallets probably don't know all the uses of these apps at present. If a mobile wallet like Paytm is used to its full potential, you will not even need to carry cash, except for some situations. If you think it is an overstatement, keep on reading...

Paddington 2 (2017)

Image
Back in 2014, Paddington came out of absolutely nowhere to become one of my favourite films of the year, a real family treat that was warm, pitch perfect and genuinely laugh out loud funny. As with any great cinematic success these days, a sequel was inevitable, and three years later we have Paddington 2 , a straight forward title that I hoped would stick to the straight forward and satisfying formula that served its predecessor so very well. I’m pleased to report that, although Paddington 2 doesn’t quite manage to replicate the perfect magic of the first in the series, it is still without a doubt one of the best family films of the year. The narrative follows Paddington (Ben Whishaw) as he finds himself in a spot of trouble after being wrongly convicted of stealing a precious book, and his journey is both helped and hindered by a mixture of familiar characters and new additions, all of whom only serve to make the film even more enjoyable. In terms of tone, the fil...
