Postings From Jaisalmer On A Ride From Jodhpur To The Famed Fort City With Some Carrying CV
Having reached Jodhpur (Rajasthan State In West India), the trials and tribulations were yet to set in as stay looking pretty visible in the same lodge in Jalori Gate of December 2017 when I set foot post din-din. Once having accessed Jalori to my horror the said lodge was not to be easily traced, and what I realised it was renamed with interriors that could put the manager on a feeble pedestal where he could not gain fame. Interiors were dirty and dusty, rooms approach something that could not be in order despite one having owner's addy. Instead I settled for Hotel Durga Silverline (Behind Razdan Mansion). The next day I set for Pali Road to access Pal Balaji (Lord Hanuman Temple), the ride back and forth accomplished in auto with no necessity to have reminders on Protocol Kyoto. The Temple is neat and tidy, with multiple devotees turning up to put in a prayer in a city where some roll out crit that is no less than a writ. The next task was to gain appropriate directions to Jodhpur Central Bus Stand to take a vehicle to Jaisalmer where one presume fewer have airs.
Reaching Jodhpur Central Bus Stand
Having reached the bus stand after 12 PM on a Tuesday from Platform 19 there are buses to Shergarh, Pokhran, Ramdevra, Jaisalmer, Tiwarin, Osian, Bhopalgarh, all important locales in State Of Rajasthan where calls do come from Central Asian Region Kygystan. All these calls are widely about reserves in this region with fanatics barred from having multiple designs on treason. While biding time there are thoughts on bus drivers of Rajasthan Roadways Transport Corporation and the punishing schedule they are subjected to, and on occasions that is true. Automan Maqsud is kind enough to drop me at Central Bus Stand, and from here there are buses as well going to Jaipur, Bikaner, Jalore, all important landmarks in this Province, and here there are chants in unison marking significant events.
Gaining A Seat In Jaisalmer Bound Bus
Conductor Mr Mahendra Purohit is kind enough to dispense window seat in Jaisalmer bound bus which one believes won't give stress. The bus leaves at 1.30. Goes past Circuit House Jodhpur. Dry Fruits Stores galore followed by ads of Guru Kripa Career Institute as well as Allen Jodhpur, and those taking coaching are primarily the ones who have near and dear ones filing bridges and road tender each and every calendar. There is a photo of Mr Ashok Gehlot congratulating Ms Manisha Tanwar probably on her birthday. The bus goes past Solanki Dairy Farm. Reaches Jasnath Nagar Toll Plaza at 2.30, and at 2.42 the bus goes past Tata Motors Authorised Service Station with Hanumanth Nagar (2.45) looking to be in prime action. Thoughts on Chhatarpur Temple in New Delhi as well as on Lopchu Tea from Darjeeling where people during inclement weather seek rock-solid dwelling. On water tank message etched vote karein vafadari se, chayan kare samajhdhari se (Vote With Loyalty, Make Wise Selection).
Pokhran Still Far Away
At 2.47 Pokhran 103 kms away. At 2.58 reach Balesar flanked by shops of equitable proportion. There are young boys and girls selling different eatable items, and some expected to sport watch of brand Titan. In Balesar there is HDFC ATM followed by an ad of Ultratech Cement. Number 1 Cement In India, and this known in distant Croatia. Motisar Khanori Toll Plaza comes at 3.30 with Dechu at 3.53. Visible are sand dunes as well as camels, and uneasy lies the head that wears the crown crisscrossing varied channels. At 4.08 reach Mandla, reach Amravati restaurant at 4.27, and what is in store for Amravati the Proposed Capital of Andhra Pradesh Province known in some quarters with Grace. The road after 4.30 reminds one of Jamnagar-Dwarka stretch in Gujarat Province where the mindset need not be dreich.
Ample Drip Irrigation System; Going Past Date Palm Safari Gaining Traction
Reach Pokhran at 4.33. Series of fruits and vegetables carts seen here with no fear. As there is ample need to develop Pokhran bus stand, the employment figures imply some getting canned. As the bus leaves bus station next to Gajanan Namkeen Bhandar (Snack Corner), there is a store dispensing tea amidst multiple visitors, and none duds. From here Jaisalmer (JSM)105, Bikaner 225 kms. KASHIDA Exclusive Range Of Handicrafts By Artisans Of Western Rajasthan can be spotted. From 4.50 onwards drip irrigation system visible about which I wrote in 2015 January about a visit in July 2014 with none getting angry. At 5.30 reach Bhadira Temple followed by Lathi Station Road. That reminds one of Tamil Star Mr Vishal and Lathi movie, watched by those who prefer to furnish CV post a drive in EV. Few moments later go past Madarsa. At 5.41 go past Lathi Toll Plaza. Mind you, the area is awash with fertile terrain post 4.50, and this is impressive for Rajasthan which from time to time has moments of gaiety. At 5.56 JSM 40 kms with perfect noting of The Serai JSM. At 6 go past Date Palm Safari which is poles apart and has amazing tales and plot. At .6.02 go past Dargah, and at 6.06 Bhagoo Ka Gaon with benchmark index by all means down. We are on National Highway 11. At 6.25 JSM War Museum Accessed, and from here JSM 10, Sam 50, and none getting haughty. At 6.37 there are directions to Barmer, and at 6.37 reach Bhishm Dwar followed by JSM at 6.38 when buses meant to take passengers to operational flights can wait.
This was a ride to Jaisalmer coming after 11 years, with hope and a prayer that Jaisalmer Fort gets enough dose of cheers. This was a ride to access that city where cheerleaders gather to gauge and irrespective of weather visitors do come in good numbers to raise for their tourism feat a word of praise.
