- HOPE I AM ABLE TO SAVE IT
June 1, 2014 when we left in search of ’Sarus” after some on line
search of Wetlands little did we know that we would find a IBA and
‘christen” it Dhanauri Wetlands though there was some discussion
that it be called ‘Arya’s Wetland” (but I am too modest !!).
When told that we were looking for ’Sarus Cranes’ someone from
the Crowd called ‘Pagle Hain”. Perhaps the guy was correct.
After all kinds of experiences of kaccha road, argument with a
Ghoonghat Clad women driving a Bullock-Cart, separating from
the Group etc etc, we found a guy called ’Taukir’ who gave directions
to Dr. Gupta (who was smart enough to get his Cell Number). We failed
to follow his directions and then decided we will call him and lead us
to Dhanauri.
While Dr. Gupta was waiting for him, we found an excellent
Samosa and Jalebi Wala.
Soon Taukir arrived and after a lot of twisting, turning, broken
roads etc we did reach Dhanauri and what a sight.
though not very nice.
Rest is History:
Watch the Documentary that depict its full glory - have won 5 Awards -
And a Charming Photo of Sarus attached.
