Even I noticed it.
Btw TOI covered our meetup more than 2 times.
Anyways I am bringing this to the attention of a senior TOI editor whom I personally know.

Found out about this through a friend's twitter post. Times of India has used Wikipedia logo on today's Times Nation page, in an article that has nothing to do with Wikipedia. The image has been used merely as a stock image for creating the graphic required for the feature. This clearly is a violation of copyrighted material. Just thought I'd bring this to your attention.
ToI is known to have flicked images from Wikimedia commons earlier as well. Refer: http://www.flickr.com/photos/snandy_81/3278245833/ http://kalyanvarma.net/journal/2010/02/11/toi-steals-cc-works/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/arunganesh/4345797042/
