Gave interview on Feb 2nd. Sanjay Verma sir board. Member 4 asked questions on uttrakhand. 1) where is terai dam being constructed 2) why is it being delayed 3) what are ecological and disaster related concerns 4) what lobby or vested interest is blocking development I had nothing related to uttrakhand or dams in daf. I'm from Bangalore. I was confused till today that why was I asked about it. It was not even in current affairs. Today I realised that my place of birth is uttra kannada district in Karnataka and member misread as uttrakhand. Got 169 and out. So frustrating but true
