I remember seeing the Paton Tank captured in the Pakistani war. If its not that, is it close/inside the ASC compound on the other side of the road? Maybe inside the ASC War Memorial?

They do have a nicely laid out garden visible from the road :-)

True! But this one is Stuart Tank, as Vaibhav has rightly mentioned, but I think near 'Prof. K Venkatachalam cirlce', just next to 'Ulsoor lake'.

You're on 34 lady

Where're the usual suspects? And why have Biman and Kimbalaji deserted us?

Now, how much more 'mean' can one be? Reminding every now and then that I am on a wrong path!

Could it be TN or should I look towards Jharkhand or Chhatisgarh? Should I sleuth carefully through your trip reports ?

It usually is the case with me - I play Antakshari too, mostly with myself .

Vaibhav, is this near a hill station? Not Yercaud by any chance?

@ naveena - TN it is. But what i find surprising is how come you're not getting the clue. Introspect!
@ N_siva: It is near. No to yercaud.

Hmm, as an unusual suspect I would start with Kerala looking by the greens and and the pine like tree on right corner, towards the hilly area ?

Welcome to the little game- but the state has been identified correctly by Naveena in the post immediately above yours!
