Water hospitality on track
Water as a commodity was scarce in our mostly hot and dry countryside of Rajasthan, and so long as it looked clean, no one bothered much about its purity like they do now.

If you miss the train...
Twenty-seven years ago, an incident taught me the hard way that being over-confident and careless about something are both the same. My friend Mahesh and I had travelled to Ujjain for the famous Kumbh Mela. As the 12-yearly event was to draw pilgrims in millions from all over, there was a tremendous rush to reserve tickets in trains travelling towards Ujjain. In Bangalore, we had to change our travel dates several times owing to many failed attempts at the railway ticket counter. The moment I secured our tickets, I felt as though half the battle was won!
