The only bright part of this route (Shimla to Rohru) is the stretch between Fagu and Theog. Else, my car seemed in shambles and falling apart. Each and every screw, howsoever rusted it was, seemed like falling apart. Many did. Total damage would be finally assessed once I take my car to the mechanic. From [...]
This is not a first hand account. Rather I’ve heard it from different sources. The local MLA (member of legislative assembly) from Jubbal-Kotkhai, Narendra Baragta, recently, at a public rally to appease the common man, announced – “Yeh jo Ching-Ming hai na, jo apne desh mein bade bante hain, yahaan dekho hamaare liye sadak bana [...]
