A very good morning to all my friends viewing my blog and ''Subho Bijoya'' . Being an Indian I think I should know the first things that happened in India. I have got some information that I would like to share. Nowadays all of us use credit cards but do you know which was the first Indian Bank to launch a credit card? It was ''Andhra Bank'' which launched it in 1981. The most common form of entertainment for Indians is watching the television ,at least for us children . But do you know who manufactured the first television set in India? It was the''ELECTRONICS CORPORATION OF INDIA Ltd'' in 1959 . We should always wash our hands with soap ,but how many of us know that ''Lifebuoy'' was the first branded soap in India. These days almost every body has a car but do you know that the first car introduced by the '' HINDUSTAN MOTORS" was called the Landmaster , forefather of the Ambassador . As most of the men in India drive car most women drive scooty (scooter) but do they know that '' Lambretta'' by the ''Innocenti Company'' was the first scooter in India. Everybody loves chocolates and ''Dairy Milk was the first branded chocolate in India launched by Cadbury. Denims are very popular among youth . But do you know that '' Flying Machine was the first denim brand in India . Just grab a bottle of Cola and that makes your day but do you know that Double Seven was the first Cola brand in India.
