train journeys
Delhi Mumbai Rajdhani
thanks to the gujjar agitation in Rajsthan our train took a detour
we got a Bharat darshan
after Mathura the train came via Agra, Indore & finally backtracked to Baroda
the train reached Mumbai Central 8 hours late!
The 17days of agitation the last count i read was
INS15Crore losses to the Indian Railways (as on 9th June 08)
51 passenger trains cancelled
damage to property
holding the country to ransom and for...
getting a retrograde reservation status !!
for eg. they served us lunch on board just that cost them atleast 15,000 bucks !!!
plain dal chawal

the monsoon hit early this year and the gujjars are a farming community.
they were sitting out at Kota - dharna, rail rokko, etc.
so they also missed out on the benefits of rain on their land
