Scenario: Indian meeting Indian.
Nina: Hi I am Nina - nice to meet you. This is my husband R.
Great, so you studied in Saint Patricks, I am from your sister school Loreto Convent.
R: Hey ... And I am from Saint KV.
My husband is from a public school in Delhi - Kendriya Vidyalay (KV) - actually a great chain of schools managed by the central government. Lately however he has started referring to his school as Saint KV! Missionary complex?
Was speaking to a Xavarian friend the other day (studied from Saint Xaviers, Calcutta), and he too had a story. During his college days in India, the boys from Saint Xaviers were attending a fest in a state sponsored college. On being approached by a group of boys, the Xavarians introduced themselves. And immediately, the group that had approached them said that they were from Saint Charu - Charuchandra College, Calcutta!
