My Sojourn in Pauri

Image
  I landed here 2 months back. Someone told me , "मैडम यहां रास्ते टेढ़े हैं पर लोग सीधे हैं |" well Neither I'm saying it's entirely true nor do I know if it's good to be सीधा or not. However I do agree that people have more patience, more kindness and more respect towards eachother at this place. I haven't seen people abusing eachother from the windows of their cars while driving on road, I haven't seen eve - teasing here ( It's a big thing, trust me). Maybe they take long walks everyday, which made them pateint with time. Does that mean they don't deserve good transport facilities here?? Maybe they are eluded to the show off culture and have preserved the kindness in their culture. Does that mean they should remain isolated from the tourism map of this state?? Maybe I'm lucky to not face eve teasing here or maybe they respect women but is that enough for women? Don't they need quality education?? We will get the 18th Lok Sabha tomorrow b
