http://forpune.com is a Q&A site for Pune, India. Nice idea and can be quite useful if people use it well;  those who want to use it well and for mutual benefit, should read the FAQ and About pages on the site and follow the guidelines there:

http://forpune.com/faq
http://forpune.com/about

It's by the creators of PuneTech - http://punetech.com - another interesting site that is focused on technology / startups / etc. in Pune. ForPune is based on StackExchange, a SaaS (Software as a Service), the same software that runs StackOverflow - http://StackOverflow.com (a Q&A site for programmers), ServerFault - http://ServerFault.com (a Q&A site for system administrators), and SuperUserhttp://superuser.com (a Q&A site for computer enthusiasts and power users) - among other sites; since StackExchange is a SaaS product, anyone can sign up to use it (for a monthly payment,which as per what I saw, is not high).

Be sure to read the FAQs and About pages on such sites (and any other Q&A sites / forums) before posting questions on them, if you don't want to be blasted publicly for lack of Netiquette  - http://www.albion.com/netiquette/ :-)
