i’m glad that there are so many young people who want to see beyond the glitzy city - and without the touch of oh-so-arrogant sympathy..
i feel it’s important to watch not only maa tuhje salaam video but the vande mataram (shit version) to know the ‘real’ india as some like to put it..it’s painful to see issue such as caste still plaguing the country..
have been a traveller myself - a month in gorakhpur, 2 weeks in rural orissa, 2 weeks in ladakh, a week in rural kerala..
i highly recommend that we meet some dalit activists while in mumbai (eg. sambhaji bhagat)..
and i do hope i can be part of this amazing journey - i feel am made for it! because i too feel that the way to ‘development’ now is to create more decent & productive jobs (apart feom universal access to education)..

It brought back all of the nostalgia of the Yatra. I hope this new yatra works out and works well for the participants as the first yatra had done for us. Though I am unable to help out myself for the yatra, I wish the organizers all the best in doing a great job Vande Mataram Digvijaya Hi Shank,
