Karve Days 10: Survey work in displaced villages near Narmada river

✪ College gathering and fun with friends
✪ Research deadline is missed, finally!
✪ Villages near Narmada river!
✪ Badvani and 1 Rs- poha
✪ Heart of the hostel- Santosh Rathod

January 2008! Time of the college gathering. The gathering was a relief from the stress of all submissions and tasks! I could enjoy it well as I was sufficiently socialized by hostel friends since last one and a half year. Friends did many performances- the tradition attire, traditional songs and dances! Many wonderful performances were there. Povada, Bharud, folk songs. I remember the attire of Avinash Ravate. Of course, by then he had lost his long hair, like Dhoni of 2006! The new faces- the first years- they were quite known by this time and they also performed well. Everyone was so energetic and zestful. Sandeep Barve's songs- everyone liked them. And the last jamming session! We hostel boys had a jumping dance! Even after feeling tired, we did not stop. And there were those ones who were dancing with minimal movement so as to avoid fatigue! Those were the days!
