An idyllic Indian village, Mangar is a picture-perfect destination brimming with exotic locals, a thriving street-art scene, and a few surprises hidden in its nooks and corners. At first sight, Mangar comes across as a regular village, one of many that are often considered the lifeline of India. […]
My visit to All Creatures Great & Small (ACGS) in Silakhari Village, a half hour drive from Gurgaon, Haryana took place on a sunny Sunday afternoon. My friend’s son was researching animal cruelty for a school project, and this had been the reason for this somewhat impromptu trip. […]
