The Rover in me resides flash trip to Mori Bera

Mori Bera Summarized: Rediscovering the Wandering Spirit.

In the fabric of life, a small nudge from the past can ignite the dormant restlessness within. “If you don’t use it, you will lose it,” my father’s wise warning rang in my ears as I found myself in limbo following a life-changing injury. The relentless prodding of a few old friends shook me out of my stupor, driving me back into the enthralling worlds of travel and nature.
A phone call from Kunoo, a buddy who recognised the power of alluring adventure, was the impetus for my rebirth. He dangled a tempting proposition in front of me: a meeting with a mother leopard and her two cubs, a promise that ignited my wandering soul. I embarked on a journey to Mori Bera with two other close comrades, Harry and Abu’s courageous trekker Charles, resolved to break free from the shackles of routine.
The possibility of seeing my long-lost drinking companion after a lifetime brought an extra element of excitement to the adventure. Kunoo’s leopard safari turned out to be nothing short of paradise rediscovered. Zia, the stately leopardess, and her two playful pups became the objects of my camera, and I captured images that will live on in my mind forever. Zia was the child of Zara, a leopard who had been last seen in Bera three years before.
The excursion proceeded with a fantastic bird-watching trip to Jawai Dam, where nature revealed its splendour in pulsing hues. But not everything was perfect, as the sighting of the Indian Blue Bull, Nilgai, left a sorrowful note in my travels.
One shot of a deer piqued my interest, causing me to issue a challenge to the reader: uncover the unseen tale behind this routine moment in the forest. I urge you to experience my great admiration for nature’s beauties as I reveal images of Zia and her pups in upcoming postings, followed by fascinating birding pictures.
This brief excursion to Mori Bera developed into a soul-stirring expedition, a monument to the undying spirit of discovery that exists inside all of us. As my heart rushes with the excitement of the unknown, I urge you to join me on this virtual adventure and experience the beauty that lies in answering the call of the unknown.

BSNL 2016 in our Abode Mount Abu.

It's really frustrating to live in a town where there is only one Broadband provider. I’m sure if there were other competitive networks BSNL would have faded out long ago, as customers would have gone to a more reliable source of services offered.
It's the 4 Jan 16 today and I receive a message in my browser have a look at the snap shot I have inserted.


BSNL had made an announcement that all broadband connections will be upgraded to 2 mbps speed. This ingenuity is nothing but attracting people to go for the carrot offered. Please note, “This upgradation is only for the initial 1GB.”
I’m surprised at this move by BSNL, as it has customers that have used their services for donkey’s years. After one receives the notification as shown above that the user has reached the FUB limit the user is given a list for up gradation of Internet speed

Additional Data Transfer quota at higher speed *
Charges in Rs(Excl S.Tax)
2 GB    100
5 GB    200
10 GB   300
20 GB   500
*NOTE: The above data transfer quota will expire after exhausting the data usage quota opted by you or at the end of the month, whichever is earlier. (Service Taxes extra.)

Now as a customer after reading the above message I feel If I don’t take the carrot I’ll end up using a snail connection for the rest of the month. Here is a snapshot of a speed test I ran this morning.


Now all of you looking at my blog and who are using BSNL connection could you give some feedback on your experience. 
Would you be suckered into using the top up plans for speed? 
If not what additional resource would you opt for?
Have anyone used the top up plan, and what was your experience?

My personal experience of meeting this great and renowned Cardiologist goes way back to when he was head of the Cardiology Department in the Civil Hospital Ahmedabad and subsequently had my first angiography done by him (in Sal Hospital) on the same table that our present PM had his angiography done. My second angiography was also performed by Dr Samir Dani via my hand in Life Care Hospital Ahmedabad.




Here are some links to this great Interventional Cardiologist.

Happy New Year From The Abode Of Gods Mt.Abu

Happy New Year From The Abode Of Gods Mt.Abu

Mount Abu in the year 2016 has had its ups and downs. A successful summer season, with its tourist boom. A lovely summer festival held by the Abuites.  Witnessed one of the worst storms ever which felled a huge number of trees. A brief but fierce monsoon season. Two gruesome murders, one ex-Marian who is still missing. A successful winter season. In tote Abu, had a good year.
I just received a clip from Charles. It brings up the mystery of missing Shuel Braganza's last seen whereabouts. Here is the clip which I have screenshot regarding Shuel.



I have copied and pasted the English version of the paper.

Abu Road. The first came last October, a tourist from Mount Abu mountain after her purse was missing. The tourist is missing last October 20. As of last October 20, a resident of Abu g Shuel Braganza Poona who came here was missing. After reports of the police force, Dog Squad dig the respective area was hit, but tourists are not detected. On Wednesday, the tourist's purse got people taking forest wood, which he handed over to police. From Abu Road to Mount Abu is a hotel on the way forward, some of Arna Hanuman. It is found in the forests behind the purse.Mount Abu police Szznsinh CI purse forest people had said it, but now could not find any information about the person. On this basis, the investigation continues. 
Mount Abu half months ago was found in the woods of the missing tourists purse.

The gist of the matter is that on the 25th Dec 2015. Some woodcutters found Shuels purse behind a hotel in the Aarna village and handed it over to the police. Now this location is completely opposite to that of Plummy where he was initially declared missing. I really wonder where Shuel is only hope he will be found soon.
