Dolls

There is a Dolls Museum in Jaipur, housed in a school for deaf, dumb, and blind children, rarely featured in tourism maps, and hence, little known even in neighborhood. Here are a few pics that I was able to capture - quality of pics is not good due to glass showcases and lighting woes. However, the dolls were pretty and so were the kids there, with whom I've got a few pics shot :)

From the inaugural dinner at IIMB

आदमी बुलबुला है पानी का!

और पानी की बहती सतह पर

टूटता भी है डूबता भी है
फिर उभरता है फिर से बहता है
ना समन्दर निगल सका इसको
ना तवारीख तोड़ पायी है
वक्त की मौज पे सदा बहता
आदमी बुलबुला है पानी का

Some flowers...

At India Gate

बच्चों के छोटे हाथों को चाँद-सितारे छूने दो,
चार किताबें पढ़ के ये भी हम जैसे हो जायेंगे।

Long Live Independnce!

Rashtrapati Bhavan through Amar Jawan Jyoti

इसीलिये खड़ा रहा कि तुम मुझे पुकार लो!
