First about the fantastic organic lunch, sitting under amla trees in the zero-budget farm of Shri Rajendra Singh Baghel in Sonkatch, next to a highway. The Yatris were touched by the ambience, the warmth, the fantastic food (the kadhi was so good that we started downing several katoris each) – we felt that the Yatra’s message is finally complete – living close to Nature and eating non-toxic food.More...
