Mera Pind Mere Khet !!

Hmmm... There used to be a time when I spent weeks or months in my village Chauke but now the visits are far and few. So Here I am posting some of my latest photographs which I took in our farms in the village and at the DARGAH/SAMADH of our ancestors. Me Standing in our farm after the PARAALI of rice was burnt.

Me with my Chachu in our cotton fields.

Me with Chachu (He after days hardwork) at our tubewell.
