@ Puneet/reachmonil/rahul_gsp
Like sonika and nikhilkulk have mentioned, the decision give a name to this group has come up because:
1. The activities that are being planned on this thread http://www.pagalguy.com/forum/touchi...in-pune-7.html (Community Services In Pune) (Ehsaas - Community Services in Pune)
2. While we were in the process of speaking to NGOs, most of them wanted to know what we were called/going to be called. Since we dont propose to limit CS activity here, to only PG members, or only IT folks , etc etc, we saw the need to come up with a more broad banner that would encompass the activities that we plan to undertake.
To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;

On second thoughts, y the limitation to vote, let peepz come out with names they feel appropriate and then the Pune CS wing members decide! | Ya man...the name I second ur proposal..why restrict to the list above.....PG names have always been crazy..insane......so let it be that way....

scmhrd | Shankx,
The Pune CS group had a meeting where a lot of names were thrown up by the people present there, and amongst them, a few were shortlisted. We also had a few people suggesting names on the CS thread. We see the need to shortlist a name for ourselves, and thought the poll was the quickest and most democratic way to go about doing it.
How about joining us at our CS meetings since you are in Pune, to better understand what we are trying to do?

Hie guys,
Well... one name that comes to my mind is 'Jankhna' - Jan-kh-na. Means *Wish* in Gujarati. I loved the pronounciation, the syllables! Also, a relevant French word could be looked upon.
Amongst the choices, 'Prayatna' sounds good! Again by meaning is apt!

Again by meaning is apt! | I see many votes for Prayatna..the word literally means 'TRY'/'TRIAL'..It no doubt is clear and concise and sounds good but then it just means an attempt..not very complete in itself I think...This was the point I had raised at our last meet..n I guess since there were a lot of takers for 'Ehsaas' I guess no body gave a lot of thought to that.. I seriously feel 'Ehsaas' is a far better option than 'Prayatna', though my first vote wud be for 'Patang'.

Hurry up... | I agree. I'm the lone person who voted for Aks, but strongly recommend Ehsaas. Let's only go with CS members. Junta ??

If it comes down to choosing between Ehsaas and Prayatna, my vote goes to Ehsaas By the way I like Maitri too  , which also has some votes. But if it is only betweem Ehsaas and Prayatna, then Ehsaas it is.....
