BCW SURAJPUR

The ACC cement factory and the colony that we grew up as children.!

yeh kahaan aa gaye hum!

Life has moved so much ahead. That going back in time seems scary. I did. And for the firsttime in my life went back to see my childhood- and was left wondering, and shocked to see a once happy township now a flourishing forest, with no tell tale signs of its glorious past.

I am dedicating this blog site to the spirit of Surajpurians, who lived in a society called ACC BCW SURAJPUR. Over the next postings I would try and bring alive the past and the present.

Anyone of you having memories of Surajpur, please log in here time and again and keep posting your views. May our tribe find a new life on the net.

Happy blogging

Hi

Sorry for not being on the radar for a long time.

I can not complain that not many friends are posting their views, may be I am also one of them.

But it at least we are in touch some of them.

I am @ seattle these days and must say East coast was a much better place in terms of weather.

I am reachable @ 732-535-3177.

Love
Ashish

whenever I feel loneliness ,when ever I remains under tense circumstances,whenever I feel depressed,whenever I feels that I will loose the battle I have started against evil forces ,to gain courage ,self confidence,to overcome the problems I faced,to feel tension free ,to regain happiness, I immediately pays a visit to my loving BCW Surajpur.I always remembers peoples of Surajpur., wherever they lives now they loves each other, accords respect to each other & they preserve this culture till today they will preserve it in the future also,I am fully confident about this fact.May this colony resurfaced again in any shape and RAUNAK MELA should once again emerge in its streets where we borne,we play,we become young.

Oh...you all are much too young for me...I was there at Surajpur in early seventies. But I wish we could revive this perhaps buy one house each...and make it our holiday home. Why go elsewhere when we have a hometown of our own. We are a parivar, aren't we? :)

Hi Bharati,
Are you Jayaraman's daughter?
My name is Suchitra, daughter of Raghavendra Rao and we lived in BCW Surajpur from 1981 to 84.Dad was deputy manager and if i remember correctly you taught me and my older sister( we were 5 and 6 then when we moved to Surajpur) some dance lessons.
I remember your mom, dad and a younger brother?
A few more memories of staying at your home when dad and his coworker had a terrible accident etc..Please ping me @ vichitra@gmail.com if you want to get in touch.
My Dad and mom definitely would be pleasantly surprised.

Regards,
Suchitra
