Hey Guys, spammers are misusing the comments threads. I have to clean everyday. Hence decided to disable comments feature.
But, good part is, Ranchites can still talk/chat/post comment on a better system.

For outsiders : Ranchi is Capital of Jharkhand. Nearest metro is Calcutta or Kolkata. To visit Ranchi most likely You will take a flight for Calcutta or Kolkata. Previously it was part of Bihar. They are still same people .Even now they marry (matrimonial) from other state.

Message for Visitors who are familiar wth Jharkhand and Bihar : We will soon launch matrimonial website. Bharat or Hindi matrimonial is too broad. Matrimonial service will target Bihar, Jharkhand and may be Calcutta(Bengal).
