Picture Perfect Moment - Dog asking for human help in human language on railway track

Thodi Si Toh Lift Kara De - Dog beneath the train on railway tracks. Seems like asking for human help in human sign language. This incident happened with me when I was traveling by Indian Railways. My train was on halt   at Samstipur Junction Railway Station. and this dog appeared just beneath the 'LIFT HERE' sign you all have seen in Indian Railways Passenger Wagon compartments. And  gave me this opportunity to capture the picture-perfect moment on my  smartphone mobile's camera . It looked like the dog  appeared from the other side of the platform finding his way out. He  was trying to climb onto the platform on which the train was standing. But did not find success. That moment shot in a camera portrays like if the dog is asking for human help in human language. Check out that photo on my Instagram:- @janakyadav As soon as I took the photo, he disappeared unharmed in his quest to find out the right way without any human help & moved...

The blind list to see 'The India Outside India' and say yes to the world

For me "To travel is to explore with all senses" The senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch define whether my travel-wandering soul attained solace or is it ready again for more exploration. As you all know from my Blogging profile that I reside in Howrah district which falls in the state of West Bengal, India. The name Howrah might make you remember that famous Cantilever bridge known as Howrah Bridge which connects two cities, Kolkata and Howrah, situated on the east and west side of the tributary of river Ganga known as river Hooghly or Adi Ganga. At the one end of the Howrah bridge is the famous Howrah railway station in Howrah City which acts as the gateway to the 'City of Joy' Kolkata, earlier known as Calcutta, which is on the other side of this cantilever bridge. Calcutta, by this name, was the capital of India before New Delhi until 1911 during the British Empire of East Indian Company. For your information, I as a Howrah resident feel the...

Memorable Road Trip to Digha, nearest Sea Beach from Kolkata

We Kolkatans, love sea food, so how can we resist loving the sea? We somersault for sea visits towards the Bay of Bengal as soon as we get time from the busy weekdays on the weekends. But this time, we did a summersault by crafting a memorable road trip by car to Digha, the nearest sea beach from Kolkata as my city was burning with 44 degree Celsius which actually felt like 49 degree C. Nothing could have been much soothing than getting a short relief beside the sea from this scorching Indian summer heat wave in the city .

That 80 KM Journey for Dal Tadka & Roti at Sher-E-Punjab Dhaba, Kolaghat

I just had left my BPO job back in April 2009. All that I had that time was a Hero Devil Bicycle and long distance journeys to cover on that. I insisted Papa to help me in purchasing my 1st bike. I had my saved salary around 44K and asked Papa to pay me rest so that I can get one. Papa agreed with me, but I was confused with the options I was getting in the market. It was my 1st major buying decision. I had to take care of Brand, quality, Service center, color of Bike,etc. So, Finally purchased Honda Stunner after consulting with my friends and my heart, while unlistening to them who were against my decision. Because I loved my bike in the first instance when I saw one in showroom. I opted for a  different color and that too yellow . It was September 2009,Durga Puja was way one month back. There was not anything to hang upon. Days were passing out boring. Even Sundays were not that exciting. So,one Sunday, all friends from club decided to ride along the highways and visit '...
