"Zameen se juda hua insaan"

Many times I have confronted myself with questions like...

Who am I?
What do I aim for in life?
What do I stand for?
What are my roots?

There are also times when I feel myself to be too far away from the ground realities of my nation. In short, as we say in Hindi "Zameen se juda hua insaan" .

Then again, I have heard, felt and have seen the difference in the villages and cities in India. Poles apart is one phrase that describes it. This difference hurts something inside me...

It is these feelings and questions which I am trying to collate in this blog. I hope, I will be able to sustain this into something useful...

"India lives in its villages" -- Mahatma Gandhi
