New Year's Eve Destinations

-
You were either swamped at work, ran out of leaves or just plain lazy - whatever your excuse, it has now left you wondering why you didn't plan ahead for New Year's eve. Luckily for you, we've got you covered. And since 2016 was one crazy trip, we raised the stakes and mixed it up a bit. This is what you can plan for the big event.

1. What's Hot New Year Shuffle: Mega Party


What's in it for you? 3 venues, 7 artists and 1 mega party! A stellar line-up of artists and complete access to only the hottest pubs in Delhi - Summerhouse Cafe, Bandstand and Auro Kitchen & Bar at Aurobindo Market in Hauz Khas. Need we say more? To buy the tickets,

2. Paragliding in Bir Billing




A quaint village area in Himachal Pradesh, Bir-Billing has been attracting adventure seekers for a long time now. A quick trek up to the launch site and a smooth sailing experience over the valley makes for an unbeatable experience.

3. Picturesque views in Kanatal, Uttarakhand


Bliss, quietude and views to leave you breathless - there's plenty here for anyone looking to keep their New Year celebration low-key. If it's any other time of the year or hasn't snowed here yet, you can even indulge in a few nature walks. Nothing better comes to mind when you're looking to centre yourself with the universe.

4. Wildlife Safari at Jim Corbett National Park


This one's for the nature lovers. Hunter and author Jim Corbett was known to have single-handedly brought down many man-eaters, and these tales later became popular books also authored by him. 
The park is made up of five zones — Jhirna, Bijrani, Dhikala, Durgadevi and Sitavani — and it's in these zones where one can chance upon the Royal Bengal tiger, leopards, hog deer, otters, cheetal, jungle cat, sloth bears, barking deer and other animals. This is the place to be if you want a truly immersive experience.

5. Take your party underwater in Lakshadweep


Who says celebrating above water is any better than doing so under it? The rich underwater universe, blue waters and clear sands only add to the draw when it comes to the Lakshadweep Islands.

The word from Kolkata is that it has been raining since morning with the match scheduled to start at the Eden Gardens at 19:30 local time.

The word from Kolkata is that it has been raining since morning with the match scheduled to start at the Eden Gardens at 19:30 local time. Moreover, the Kolkata MET department has predicted rain and thundershowers in the evening. The groundsmen are not taking any chances ahead of this high-profile clash and have covered the entire ground. The India-Pakistan marquee clash was scheduled to be played in Dharamsala earlier, but due to security reasons was moved to Kolkata.   ( History favours India, but Pakistan are favourites   ) If the match had remained in Dharamsala, there was strong chance of it getting washed out. The reason being, the mountain town was hit by a strong hailstorm accompanied by heavy
