He was an excellent orator - his powerful speeches used to leave the huge masses spellbound. He extended his helping hand to each and everyone who knocked his door for help. People…See More

Giant size marigolds, sunflowers and roses were a treat for the eyes. After a quick breakfast, we headed for the river to take a ride in the country boats. The golden rays of the winter sun proved a soothing…See More
