  1. I have heard about Karuli, and now your photos have inspired me to stay for a few days at this small village. But I could not find information as to any lodgings there. If you know of any, would you please mention those in your page here?

    1. There are no lodgings over there as it is a small village like others. One can stop and enjoy the scenery and pass on. Village is beautiful but no lodgings developed till yet.

    No doubt, your aesthetic sense is commendable. But write something about pitiable condition of the villagers, unemployment, growing alcoholic and ganja abuse, poor quality education, etc, etc. Only a few privileged can't represent the happiness of all the villagers. This will be somewhat narcissistic. Am I wrong?
