Schizophrenic India: Differently Abled
On the wheelchair is my friend and guide who has been challenged in multiple ways. He was kind enough to show me his house which allowed me to explore the place much deeply. His wheelchair was given to him by the collector himself and not the Panchayat and has been an important transition in his life from the days of his "patra-gaadi" which he used to drive with his hands on the floor. - In Shivpuri, MP.

Schizophrenic India: Tales of Sorrow
A still from the "Ram Rajya" of Orchha, where Lord Ram is regarded as the ruler (and the idol is saluted by the police, not just worshipped). The temple complex provides room for a number of destitutes for begging. Each one of these elderly people has a story to tell - this lady here wept while narrating how her children left her to fend for herself.
