The new head of the Gandhi Trust had previously been Vice-Chancellor of three Universities and was very active in the promulgation of his duties, often commencing at 5am and finishing at 7 or 8pm.
We were able to accompany him on his inspection of one of the villages under the care of the Trust, and the village mayor in the discussion of the problems facing the village.
A part of this required an inspection of the village.
And its mixture of housing from the decaying ruins such as this.
To the more modern and recent structures, such as this.
In the midst of it all was an elderly crippled man living on the side of the road with this cart for shelter when it rained. I was informed that he chose to live there and was quite happy doing so, with the villagers supplying him with whatever food he needed.
