When we started packing for our trip, just to be on the safe side, we stuffed 'self-defence weapons' in our bags, but they were of no use.During the course of our journey, I realised how badly we have abused nature and natural resources -- water, in particular. Saving water is truly the need of the day

A ground report.

When we were travelling across Bundelkhand on our bike, the election fever was at its peak. We met many first-time voters, who had so many hopes and aspirations.

In forested hinterlands of Chhattisgarh, solar powered generators, which were pushed at a massive scale for nearly a decade, have fallen to disuse. Poor maintenance of solar units remains a huge problem. Maintenance technicians complain about irregular payments.
