Pics over the week

@paharganj: kids waiting for the school bus. i remember being lucky - our school delayed timings in winters.
NB this was on the dinosaur qwantz mission morning.


@noida: the jugaad


@NDLS. i didnt know berghaus were making jute bags for the common man... CPI-M would like that


@paharganj. evading the ticket inspector at the station, i stepped out into paharganj, to find some procession blocking the entire street. dhol-baaje, blaring loudspeakers, sheep-women chanting "Jai Shri Ram" and keeping an eye on the sweetmeats being distributed, and madamji-women who were instructing the sheep-women and restraining them when they forget their lord and start rioting for sweetmeats. women liberation right there.
the restaurant receptionist at one Hotel Hari Piorko described to me (assuming I was a foreigner, whoo!) "It is for a very important Indian God" (and more importantly in the name of that ashram guruji i guess).
