In the heart of the Thar desert, India students brave blistering 45 degree temperatures to attend class.

But the Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School doesn’t need any air conditioning as its unique sustainable design keeps it cool.

In Jaisalmer, north-west India, just over a third of women and girls can read and write.

Staff at the Rajkumari school - which hosts more than 400 students aged between four and sixteen - hope to improve this alarming statistic.

Rangeelo Rajasthan: Padharo Mhare Des

Jan 3, 2024

Uncategorized

Having lived in Rajasthan for 18 odd years and some 24 years in NCR, I have always wanted to explore the western side of Rajasthan which includes Jodhpur and Jaisalmer. This land of abundant sun, sand and soil was still mysterious to me and evaded me for long until I got an opportunity to go on a road trip this winter of 2023.

Gliding through the glazing smooth butter roads starting from Mumbai expressway in Gurgaon to Jodhpur in Rajasthan, the drive was very smooth except some parts near Ajmer where some re – laying of roads was being carried on but that failed to dampen my enthusiasm in any way.

We touched down Jodhpur by 3 pm and checked into Rani Mahal, an erstwhile haveli run by a mother daughter duo. This 450 years old haveli purchased by Sri Vinod Sa Bhandari against her wife’s wishes was turned into a hotel in 2014. Little did she know that it would become her lifeline and lifelong companion in the time to come when her husband passed away in corona in 2020. From fighting all odds, facing all challenges to supporting her very young kids and putting up a bold facade and protecting her grieving and vulnerable self, she rose to the occasion and took the reins of the hotel in her hands. Smt Nisha Bhandari along with her daughter Ms Mitali Bhandari,is right here at the hotel in the morning to attend to her patrons, asking for feedback, supervising the property and gradually learning the tricks of hospitality industry day by day. Located against the majestic Mehrangarh fort in Nauchowkia, Fatehpur road, Rani Mahal provides a very unique and authentic experience to the guests of living in the city and of the vibrant markets around.

The interiors of Rani Mahal are quite impressive. It houses 19 rooms, all of which are done differently and gives you the feel of what life the maharajas and maharanis of the bygone days must have lived .Breakfast at the terrace against the Mehrangarh fort in the winter chill and sunshine is a different experience altogether . Dinner again at the terrace with live folk music playing adds a dash of charm to your excitement .Lunch is served in the cosy ambience of the ground floor .

One can visit Toorji ka Jhalra, a stepwell constructed in 1740 which is very near to Rani Mahal. One will be surprised to see a very modern market that has come up there in the midst of the old city, near clock tower for the tourists; catering to all your couturial needs and handicrafts for your homes.

A 5 mins walk from Rani Mahal will lead you the major tourist attraction of Jodhpur, yes, you got it right! It’s the Majestic Mehrangarh Fort. Indulge in some adventurous activities before indulging in its historic grandeur .The zip lining at 6 levels is a major draw for the adventurous lot. You get an amazing experience of zipping through lakes, above the fort and enjoy some good aerial views of the fort and the city.

Zip-Lining at Mehrangarh Fort (Agency- Flying Fox)

Once inside the fort, you travel back to old times and remain awestruck looking at the weaponry, the relics, the vibrant costumes and turbans ,the massive palaquins, the huge howdahs used by the members of the royal family. The grandeur and architectural beauty of the fort including the sheesh mahal, Phool mahal have to be seen to be believed.

The restaurant in the fort offers you some really good Rajasthani cuisine like dal- bati churma, traditional thali besides other cuisines . I can vouch that all over Rajasthan ,you will always find good food . The spices used are qualitatively very good but again you will have to savour it to believe it.

Village safari is another tourist attraction that you can pack in your itinerary. The jeep picks you up from the designated point and the driver cum guide takes you to the Bishnoi village enlightening and immersing you with the different aspects of their culture . Not many know that the Bishnoi community of 15 000/ people have a place in history as we read about the ‘chipko movement’. Some 439 bishnois had laid down their lives to prevent the felling of Khejari trees which are sacred to them .Not many know again that it’s the same community that was behind Salman khan’s imprisonment for the infamous black buck hunting case .They believe that their guru Jambkeshwar has been reborn as Black buck, hence the respect for the creature is something that they will never compromise with. Bishnoi, as they got the name from Hindi words for 20 and 9. They believe in 29 principles, hence the name of the community. The foremost principle of their culture is that they don’t burn the dead bodies but bury them as they believe that a lot of wood is burned and wasted in the process. They worship trees, nature and wildlife. Secondly, they hold women in high esteem. The female mukhiya has a distinct appearance from the rest of the ladies in the family like she wears a red skirt, a red turban, a nath and a heavy anklet .

The male mukhiya wears a white turban. He prepares very diligently a drink made of opium which is used to relax their bodies and also on occasions like wedding. They do not take any kind of medicines ,whatsoever ,but rely only on opium for any aches or illnesses but they understand that moderate consumption is the key.

As you navigate further into the open village, you can see black bucks, nilgais, peacocks chinkaras and foxes openly roaming and grazing without fear . You also get to see the live workshop by durry weavers.A durry can take 140 hours of weaving by 2 people on the loom. Cotton and camel wool are used for durry making. The former can fetch double the amount while the latter is cheaper and non- dyeable too.

Block printing live workshops are very interesting to witness. It’s amazing to see vegetable colors and natural dyes being used to transform some plain drab cloth into a vibrant and valuable printed cloth. It’s notable that different castes like chipa, Patels, Bishnois are identified by the different clothes they wear . It’s like understanding that clothes are their I – cards.

As we move to our another district Jaisalmer on roads paved to perfection, I see vast stretches of barren land sans any high rises , my eyes unaccustomed to see. As far as you can see, there are herds of cattle, sheep, cows, goats claiming their land ; turbaned men on charpoys leisurely pulling out the day with no haste ; carefree kids playing some local games and women carrying haystacks on their heads to be used as fodder for the cattle or fuel for cooking.

Enroute Jaisalmer, one can see dates farms and vendors selling so many different varieties of dates that we may not even have heard the names before.

There are certain interesting things you can do like jeep safari, dune bashing, camel riding and parasailing on the Thar desert against the backdrop of the rising sun or against the sun set. Both of these times offer exclusive experiences to cherish.

As I bid adieu to the desert , my heart longs to come back once again and re witness its charm and glory ; savour it’s traditional food ; immerse in the folk music and dance and imbibe the simplicity of this land of sand.

आईएएस सेलिब्रिटी हैं टीना डाबी: जैसलमेर मीडिया पैपराजी में बदल गई है | IAS celebrity Tina Dabi is the subject of paparazzi in the Jaisalmer media;

नौकरशाही की बॉलीवुड स्टार

आईएएस अधिकारी और जैसलमेर कलेक्टर टीना डाबी जब अपनी इंस्टाग्राम प्रोफाइल पिक्चर बदलती हैं, या अपने पति के साथ घूमने जाती हैं, या यहां तक कि बिंदी लगाती हैं, तो वह खबर बन जाती हैं।

एक आईएएस अधिकारी के उबाऊ जीवन का मुहावरा अब अकल्पनीय रूप से पुराना होता जा रहा है। आईएएस अधिकारी और जैसलमेर कलेक्टर टीना डाबी जब अपनी इंस्टाग्राम प्रोफाइल पिक्चर बदलती हैं, या अपने पति के साथ घूमने जाती हैं, या यहां तक कि बिंदी लगाती हैं, तो वह खबर बन जाती हैं। वह नौकरशाही की बॉलीवुड स्टार हैं। ठीक उसी तरह जिस तरह स्टार्स अपने ट्रैवल गेट-अप्स से एयरपोर्ट फैशन को बढ़ावा देते हैं, कंस्ट्रक्शन साइट्स और सरकारी दफ्तरों में उनका जाना अपने आप में एक पूरा लुक है।

दिल्ली की रहने वाली डाबी ने 2015 में यूपीएससी परीक्षा में प्रथम स्थान प्राप्त करके देश का ध्यान आकर्षित किया था। यह उनका पहला प्रयास था और उस समय वह केवल 22 वर्ष की थीं।

रातों-रात, वह एक सेलिब्रिटी बन गई, एक घरेलू नाम जिसे सिविल सेवा परीक्षा में सफल होने की उम्मीद कर रहे लाखों युवा उम्मीदवारों ने अपना आदर्श बना लिया। और तब से जनता की निगाहें कम नहीं हुई हैं।

टीना डाबी की सफलता की रणनीति

YouTube पर एक 'टीना डाबी की सफलता की रणनीति' वीडियो भी है। एक आईएएस अधिकारी से उनकी दूसरी शादी ने न केवल अखबारों में बल्कि राष्ट्रीय दैनिकों और पत्रिकाओं में भी सुर्खियां बटोरीं। 'मिलिए उस आईएएस अधिकारी से जो यूपीएससी टॉपर टीना डाबी से शादी करने के लिए तैयार' हिंदुस्तान टाइम्स), 'आईएएस परीक्षा की टॉपर टीना डाबी फिर से शादी के बंधन में बंधने को तैयार (इंडिया टुडे)' उनके निजी जीवन की कई खबरों में से कुछ थीं।

लोग 'आईएएस टीना डाबी मैडम' के बारे में सब कुछ जानना चाहते हैं। वह क्या पहनती है, कैसे चलती है, कैसे अपना काम करती है। डाबी के खाने, चलने या दिन के साथ काम करने की सांसारिक क्लिप ने YouTube पर सामग्री निर्माताओं और प्रशंसकों को प्रेरित किया है।

वह Google खोज प्रवृत्तियों पर फीचर करती है। उसकी जन्म स्थान से लेकर उसकी जाति, विवाह और उसके पति तक की सारी जानकारी ऑनलाइन है। पांच सेकंड की एक क्लिप में नाश्ते के बाद अपने कुर्ते पर हाथ पोंछते हुए दिखाया गया है। YouTube पर एक टिप्पणी पढ़ें, 'खाने के बाद आपको हाथ धोना चाहिए या नैपकिन का इस्तेमाल करना चाहिए।' अन्य लोग उसके बचाव में उठे, उसके काम की सराहना की।

आठ सेकंड की एक क्लिप जिसमें डाबी को एक वाहन से बाहर निकलते हुए दिखाया गया है, को लगभग दो लाख बार देखा गया है। उन्होंने फ्लोरल प्रिंट सलवार-कमीज के ऊपर स्वेटर पहना हुआ है। एक फैन ने कहा, 'एक आईएएस मैडम बेहद खूबसूरत अंदाज में।' एक अन्य रील में, एक कंटेंट क्रिएटर ने 'तुम छुपा न सकोगी मैं वो राज हूं' का इस्तेमाल करते हुए अपनी सभी तस्वीरों का स्लाइड शो बनाया। इसे 1.5 मिलियन से अधिक बार देखा गया .....

[ Fossilised caudal vertebrae of Tharosaurus indicus. ]

"A team of researchers from India has discovered fossils of a new dicraeosaurid from the Indian city of Jaisalmer in western India. These fossils, dating back to 167 million years, include bones separated at the joints but associated with specimens of the central body bones spread over an area of 270 square feet ( 25- square meters). The dicraeosaurid, called Tharosaurus Indicus in reference to the Thar desert where the fossils were found, is the first ever discovered in India and the oldest in the world’s fossil record. "The significance of this discovery rests in its antiquity," said Sunil Bajpai, a vertebrate paleontologist at the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee and an author of the study, in an interview with Economic Times. The team of five began their work in 2018 when they discovered these fossils. The team acknowledged that the material in their possession is fragmentary, and there is a possibility that as more evidence is recovered, there might be a change in their taxonomic attribution; the fact remains that Tharosaurus Indicus currently is the oldest known diplodocoid. “...the discovery of Tharosaurus makes India a major center for not only diplodocoid but neosauropod radiation,” said the authors in the study. The discovery of Tharosaurus suggests that India played a significant role in the emergence and diversification of neosauropods, a group of long-necked vegetarian dinosaurs that thrived as the largest land animals, explained Debajit Datta, co-author of the study, in an interview with The New York Times."

Tharosaurus indicus Bajpai et al., 2023 (new genus and species)

(Neck vertebrae of Tharosaurus indicus [scale bars = 50 mm], from Bajpai et al., 2023)

Meaning of name: Tharosaurus = Thar Desert lizard [in Greek]; indicus = from India

Age: Middle Jurassic (Bathonian)

Where found: Jaisalmer Formation, Rajasthan, India

How much is known: Several partial vertebrae and a rib.

Notes: Tharosaurus was a sauropod. Although it is known from fragmentary remains, the describers of Tharosaurus found it to be a diplodocoid sauropod in their analyses, which would make it a member of the lineage more closely related to Diplodocus and Apatosaurus than to Brachiosaurus. More specifically, it may have been a dicraeosaurid, a group of diplodocoids probably best known for including the bizarre Amargasaurus and Bajadasaurus from the Cretaceous of South America. If this classification turns out to be accurate, Tharosaurus would be the oldest known diplodocoid, and may suggest that the Indian subcontinent was an important region for their early evolution.

Reference: Bajpai, S., D. Datta, P. Pandey, T. Ghosh, K. Kumar, and D. Bhattacharya. 2023. Fossils of the oldest diplodocoid dinosaur suggest India was a major centre for neosauropod radiation. Scientific Reports 13: 12680. doi: 10.1038/s41598-023-39759-2

We need to see more big street celebrations In Star Wars like Carnivál, Mardi-gras, the Chinese New Years festival, Portugals AgitÁgueda, the Yi Peng lantern festival, The Jaisalmer Desert Festival, the Holi festival of color, Day of the Dead, the tomato throwing festival La Tomatina from Spain, the Songkran Water Festival, pride parades. Stuff like that. Something that we often see in Star Wars is a lack of cultural tradition and celebration. I mean for good reason since the empire stripped people of god damn everything because there fascists. But imagine a street celebration on Coriscant that spanned even to the lower levels, lighting up even the darkest corners. Naboo having beautiful artwork displayed on its streets accompanied by flowers and water installations, Alderon lighting colored lanterns and having massive fun water balloon/tomatoe fights. Pantora having huge beautiful parades that last for weeks and theirs lights everywhere and fireworks every night. The people of Tatooine taking to the streets will face paint and traditional clothing celebrating their ancestors, while Tuscan raiders celebrate with traditional music, dances and stories passed down for generations. Think of the possibility’s.

Day 10 : The Gulaal - Jaiselmer

18th March 2023

After a vegetarian meal under the stars we retired early to our room for a shower and a chill.

This hotel is fabulous however the view from an our window is of a building site although looking out from it now, I can’t actually see anyone working the machinery that has been left there. We’ve also had several power cuts, the most notable, was one that caused a total black out whilst I was showering. It was completely pitch black with not a glimmer of light, so I though it best just to keep warm under the hot water until the electricity was restored

Todays first stop was Gadiser Lake, a holy expanse of water that is kept topped up by a canal. Within this lake are catfish around 5 foot long and they have the circumference of a large bucket. Gangi, our guide said that people fished these near mythical monsters for food, however they didn’t taste at all good.

Behind the lake were the Ghats, which are the cremation pyres for Hindus and next to them the burial plots for the Muslim

Our next stop was Jaisalmer Fort which also goes by the name Sonar Quila (Golden Fort) as it rises from the desert itself and seems to become one with the golden hues of the sand. The setting sun adds its own magic and shrouds the fort with mystique. The fort is constructed in the classic style of the royals by local craftsmen. This fort is a world heritage site and around 5000 people live within its walls, mostly from Brahim and Rajput descent.

Its narrow streets are cobbled, broken and steep and gutters run along along side. We left our transport at the bottom gate and began our long slow walk into the fort. I was careful not to slip on the worn stones, but a very old man was squatting on the ground with a chisel and hammer knocking tiny holes into the ground to make the surface a little rougher.

The traffic of men, women, children, dogs, scooters, motor bikes and cows came from every direction, we veered and swerved around each other in some sort of dance, there was me jumping out of the way at every horn blast, trying to avoid the dung that was so freely strewn across the ground, but the cows refused to move and stood their ground, their docile, unblinking , brown eyes staring resolutely ahead of them.

We went into a Jain Temple to admire the stonework on its wall and columns.

Jainism is one of the world’s oldest religions, originating in India at least 2,500 years ago. The spiritual goal of Jainism is to become liberated from the endless cycle of rebirth and to achieve an all-knowing state called moksha. This can be attained by living a nonviolent life, with as little negative impact on any living thing. Some Jains even refuse to eat anything grown from under the ground, they cover their mouths to stop them inhaling insects and in some cases employ people to walk ahead of them, sweeping the ground and thus avoiding stepping on any forms of life.

By midday, the aroma of the fort grew heady with the smell of cooking food, petrol fumes, cow pats and urine or sewage of some sort. The intense heat didn’t help at all and I was ready to get back to the calm of the hotel.

A visit to the sand dunes was planned for this evening to see the sunset, however this excursion included a camel ride. In all honesty my conscience wouldn’t let me go. I know how some animals are treated in this country with little concern for their welfare and well being, for the sake of 15 minutes of entertainment, the poor camel may have suffered a lifetime of pain. So we declined and sat by the pool instead catching up on news and dozing, the cool desert wind like a warm blanket covering us.

So tomorrow we are on the move again.
