Saptarishi violated service rules: Minister Saptarishi, who is director general of Centre for Advancement of Rural Technology, accused election commissioners B B Tandon and N Gopalaswamy for colluding with Bharatiya Janata Party leaders to countermand polling in Bihar's Chapra constituency and of making casteist comments against the Yadav community. Saptarishi was special observer of Chapra Lok Sabha assembly seat during the Lok Sabha polls last year. Saptarishi, who promised to tell all in an exclusive interview to India Abroad at his office in the India Habitat Centre, chickened out at the last minute. www.rediff.com /news/2005/may/10ec.htm   (412 words)

SaptaRishis - The Seven Great Sages - Indian Mythology   (Site not responding. Last check: ) SaptaRishis, are the seven great sages in Indian Mythology.

The Hindu Business Line : `Saptarishi Agro's focus will be on mushrooms ' Mr Singh believes that Saptarishi has the inherent capacity to turn a profit, which has eluded it in the last one decade when various leading groups in agro business, including the Tatas, have been in control. Saptarishi's equity is around Rs 36 crore and for now its turnover is zero. Saptarishi has a capacity to produce about 12 tonnes per day and this can easily be absorbed. www.thehindubusinessline.com /2003/09/29/stories/2003092900940500.htm   (730 words)

The Hindu : Crucial win for Saptarishi Saptarishi Roy Choudary's decisive win over Himanshu Sharma in the penultimate round of the National Youth chess tournament gave him a realistic chance of grabbing the title. Saptarishi who has already played the top rated players should have a lower rated opponent from the computer-generated pairings for the final round. Very soon Saptarishi was in a strong position and Sharma barely clinging on to his position. www.hindu.com /thehindu/2002/07/25/stories/2002072503532300.htm   (239 words)

Central Chronicle   (Site not responding.

Dr Alka Pande While the seven great Indian sages were unique in their individual capacities, they were simultaneously a part of the holistic ‘saptarishi’ force that synthesized and integrated their separateness without denying their individual identities, which in turn, were equally relevant and valid. For me my seven sculptors who I invited to experiment with a material they had not explored completely in its entirety became a wondrous experiment and the Saptarishis were re born. Celebrating India’s encounter with the old and new, between the sacred and the profane, between tradition and modernity is the creative output of the seven contemporary saptarishis. www.alkapande.com /saptarishis.htm   (576 words)

The Pioneer > Columnists Given the timing of Saptarishi's "disclosure", and the way he did it - holding a press conference like a politician - he has, in all likelihood, worked in tandem with the RJD to market Lalu's "victimhood". Saptarishi himself, who in all likelihood is a Dwija, is a case in point. Assuming that the two election commissioners did not make any such remark, and yet Saptarishi is making such allegations, it may be assumed that the prompt is coming from the realisation that power has changed hands. www.dailypioneer.com /columnist1.asp?main_variable=Columnist&file_name=PRASAD112.txt&writer=PRASAD&validit=yes   (1177 words)

Ancient History of India thro. Astronomy (by NP Ramadurai): A Review Regarding the Saptarishi era NPR assumes that the stay of the saptarishis in each nakshatras is only 81 years and not 100 as traditionally accepted. According to Srinivasraghavan, Vedavyas, and all traditional opinion, the saptarishis stay in each nakshatra for 100 years and when they stayed in magha for 100 years that cycle is called the magha cycle. It is difficult to accept NPR's contention that this is a 'decorative statement'; for this appears in a specific technical reference to the time fixation with regard to all events  and the whole chapter 2 of 12th skanda of bhagavatam is on this. www.geocities.com /kvforp/VK1/Review_NPRamadurais_work.html   (1696 words)
