Thanks a lot @[222373:Love_CAT] sir for the nomination......i had a wonderful time last year interacting with everybody.......But sir i feel there are a lot of ppl who being in kolkata will benefit more from the team than me being in mumbai.....moreover i ll always be a part of the team.....hence i want to be an active part of this team but with one extra member in the team.....:)
Also a lot of controversy was created last tym bcoz of me being in 2 Regional DT's last year.....n i dont want tht to be repeated.....just want this team to be clutter free.....n i ll be there with all my might.....n will try to be more active than i was last tym....:)

Names are in no particular order. One request to selectors, please include most of the people here. I know the stakes are high and it might not be possible to include everyone but lets make a big team and all of us succeed together. :):)
PS: I am not nominating Nishant_88 because he will be part of DT this year.
Sid has decided to stay out of this process and I respect his decision.
Their help will always be required for each one of us.
Debjit might get into DT too. So fingers crossed for him. ;);)
I don't know most of them but heard a lot about them and they are a source of inspiration for me. Would like to meet all of you some day.
Cheers
Subhro Mukherjee

To conclude, a note on my profile:
This will be my 3rd attempt, and the 3rd avatar too. The first time I took it (in 2008), it was still a paper pencil test
I'm currently employed with TCS, where I've been working since March 2010.
I completed my graduation in 2009, at ECE, from IEM. My DGPA is 7.5.
I cleared my boards from LMB: ISC 2005 (87), ICSE 2003 (94)
Extracurriculars are okay.
