    Hyderabadi Website of the Month: Charminar Connection






    HYDERABADIAN CYBERSPACE MEY, BAIT KE KUCH BATAN KARINGE
    "Rushke firdous chaman hai apna Hyderabad watan hai apna"

    "It is a mistake to think that the past is dead. Nothing that has ever happened is quite without influence at this moment. The present is merely the past rolled up and concentrated in this second of time. You, too, are your past; often your face is your autobiography; you are what you are because of what you have been; because of your heredity stretching back into forgotten generations; because of every element of environment that has affected you, every man or woman that has met you, every book that you have read, every experience that you have had; all these are accumulated in your memory, your body, your character, your soul. So with a city, a country, and a race; it is its past, and cannot be understood without it." WILL DURANT

    CharminarConnection Is a place where Hyderabadies from all over the world gather and discuss the events of the past and present. Original Web site (now inactive)
