Visiting Southern States in India

After Gujarat Visit visiting the Southern Fort (Southern States in India)


Having spent almost four weeks in the national capital of Delhi, it was time to rework and revisit the Southern tally. Having returned from Gujarat State it was time to brood over Bangalore fate. The Gujarat stay brought my way the flavours of the state flush with funds that GST sends (criticism of GST is by no stretch a worthy move); day in day out i was amidst a swirling crowd never ever willing to show its clout.

As i stepped into Southern Theatre (Visiting Southern States of India a little before Middle of May), the likelihood of multitude of options coming my way seem to recede on occasions and seem to accelerate on other occasions. The meals to gulp, the train to chase and the plane to trace may have taken considerable time; the long winding traffic showed the enormous amount of money that went into to retain the shine. Big SUVs dot the landscape but at least they have spared the cities and towns from  pollution that largely retains its base in some metros of India.

AS i write amidst intermittent rains lashing Udhagai the threats belted out at TV journos shows the growing intolerance in certain quarters of country and there is a need to have a rulebook in place where those who believe in free speech are free to visit any template and those belting out threats need to be shown the door. A country of over 130 crore (1300 million) people, a wish made here and a truce reached there, the freedom to fare and freedom to share should all be visible and retainable.

On another front the Man first walked out of Iran deal and ambitious enough to hold talks with North Korea  swayed by ringing sentiments of euphoria has decided to withdraw sensing he could be easily hit by a rock which won't be raw.
