Hi Manjinder,

Welcome to the Club!

Can sure understand you being homesick after all you're miles away from
home - but always remember HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS :-)

Incidentally I also noted that you were looking for information on
tourists spots in India.  Well, check out Allindia Guide at
http://www.allindiaguide.com.  The site is a comprehensive tour guide
of India with loads of information on the bustling metros, quiet
gettaways, historical monuments & cities, Wildlife Sanctuaries.  If I'm
not mistaken there is also a Tour Operator section where you can
contact travel agents to arrange your trips.  Visit this site - I'm
from India myself but did not that such beautiful places existed in
India - a sufer's paradise.

Here are some info on a very interesting and quiet tourist spot 
Sanjay
New Delhi

DALHOUSIE

DALHOUSIE is a quiet town with a sense of enchantment. It commands an
imposing view, flanked as it is by mighty ranges to one side and the
gentle valley of CHAMBA on the other. The climate is salubrious, and the
setting just right for long walks or quiet getaways in the forests.
Picturesque English cottages dot the town, imbuing it with an air of
Nostalgia akin to SHIMLA. More recently, the Tibetans, fleeing from
chinese occupation, have added their colourful presence to many charms
in Dalhousie.
