  • Camel kick up dust as they walk through desert scrubland in the early morning on their way to be sold at Pushkar Horse and Camel Fair, Pushkar , Rajasthan,  India, 28/10/2009<br />
<br />
The Indian festival of Kartik Purnima is marked annually in October or  November by a huge cattle and camel fair in Pushkar, Rajasthan .  Pushkar Mela attracts over 200,000 visitors and pilgrims.

Serious trading takes place before the official opening of the mela between farmers, breeders and camel traders. Events begin four to five days before the full moon and include camel and horse races,  a tug of war between Rajastanis and foreigners, a fashion show for Sari wearers and competitions of horse 'dancing' . Jugglers, acrobats, magicians and folk dancers abound while salesman of equestrian and camel-related merchandise do a roaring trade in the bustling camp.<br />

  • A book based on the 4361 year old ''Shalihotra Samhita" (encyclopedia of the physician Shalihotra) photographed at Dundlod Fort, Dundlod, Rajasthan, India, 14th June 2008. <br />
<br />
The Shalihotra Samhita is a large treatise on the care and management of horses with some 12,000 shlokas in Sanskrit. It is the principal work of Shalihotra (c. 2350 BCE) who was the son of a Brahmin sage. It has been translated into Persian, Arabic, Tibetan and English languages. The work described equine and elephant anatomy, physiology, surgery and diseases with their curative and preventive measures. It elaborated on the body structures of different races of horses, and identified the structural details by which one can determine the age of a horse. Two other works, namely Asva-prashnsa and Asva-lakshana sastram are also attributed to Shalihotra.  Some later authors have named their veterinary works after Shalihotra and others have based their work on his Samhita. Subsequent generations copied, revised and added to Shalihotra's text. Hence the term Shalihotra refers to similar texts in a tradition.<br />

Pushkar Mela , one of Asia's (if not the world’s) largest camel fairs occurs annually during the Hindu month of Kartik (October-November) in the small desert town of Pushkar in Rajasthan, India. Semi-nomadic tribal people with hordes of cattle, camels and horses materialise out of the desert and descend upon the town setting up a vast camp on the outskirts. It runs concurrently with the festival of Kartik Poornima which honours the God Brahma. Its celebrated with particular fervor in Pushkar because it hosts one of the very few Brahma temples in India and culminates with thousands of devout Hindus taking a ritual bath in the sacred Pushkar Lake. Its this melange of pilgrims, musicians, magicians, acrobats, folk dancers, traders, comedians, ‘sadhus’ and tribals that creates a uniquely colourful spectacle transforming the usually sleepy town into an astonishing cultural phenomenon. <br />

  • Om Prakash 26 year old Horse Trainer 'tent pegging' (spearing tent peg sized pieces of foam with a lance) on Mawari mare Narayani (7), The Marwari Bloodlines stud farm in Dundlod, Rajasthan, India, 14th June 2008. Tent pegging is an exercise or sport with its roots on battlefields of the past when lances were used as weapons from horseback<br />
<br />
Raghuvendra Singh Dundlod is co-owner of the Marwari Bloodlines stud farm in Dundlod, dedicated to the preservation and international recognition of the indigenous horses of India. Of these horses the Mawari is considered the most regal. Its defining characteristics are the unique lyre shaped ears which can rotate 180 degrees individually or together; they are one of the most ancient and purest breeding lines; they have endurance considered to be on a par with Arabian horses; they were bred in India by the 12th century Marwar rulers for battle in which they excelled; known for particularly for its loyalty, speed and stamina. The breed came to the point extinction during the Raj as a result of British persecution and numbers remained critically low until the formation of the Indigenous Horse Society of India in 1996. The breed remains threatened to this day.<br />

The Love Commandos is a small organisation that was established in July 2010 and is based in Delhi. It is staffed by Indian activists devoted to providing help and assistance to Indian couples facing threats, violence, monetary difficulties and other problems associated with love marriages in India. Specifically they tackle the iniquity of so-called 'honour killings' that are still so common across the country. <br />
The Love Commandos have 2,000 plus volunteers from different spheres of life across the country. While founder Sanjoy Sachdeva is a journalist, his Chief Coordinator Harsh Malhotra is a garment businessman. They also have lawyers, doctors, daily wagers and others as volunteers. They have five centres in the national capital plus there are others in Punjab, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.<br />
So what do they do when they get a distress call?<br />
<br />
"Initially, we try to counsel the couple over the phone. If the matter is serious, then we send out a team to the area, which will take help from the local police to rescue the couple. Then depending on what they want to do, we either marry them off or give them protection till they reach a decision. Most police forces cooperate with us except for the Uttar Pradesh police, which is a shame, because we receive maximum number of distress calls from UP," Sachdeva says.<br />

Elephant handlers (Mahouts) eke out a living in makeshift camps on the banks of the Yamuna River in New Delhi.

The owners keep all the money from hiring the animals out for religious festivals, events and weddings, they also are involved in the illegal trade of captive elephants. The living conditions and treatment of elephants kept in cities in North India is extremely harsh, the handlers use the banned 'ankush' or bullhook to control the animals through daily beatings, the animals have no proper shelters are forced to walk on burning hot tarmac and stand for hours with their feet chained together. <br />

  • A woman prays quietly as Hindu's celebrate Holi in the Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindavan, in the Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh, India ,1st March 2010. <br />
<br />
Holi, also called the Festival of Colours, is a spring festival celebrated by Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, Jains and others. It is primarily observed in India, Nepal, Srilanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and countries with a large Indian diaspora populations, such as Suriname, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, UK, USA, Mauritius, and Fiji. In West Bengal of India and Bangladesh it is known as Dolyatra (Doul Jatra) or Basanta-Utsav ("spring festival"). The most celebrated Holi is that of the Braj region, in locations connected to the god Krishna: Mathura, Vrindavan, Nandagaon, and Barsana. These places have become tourist destinations during the festive season of Holi, which lasts here to up to sixteen days.<br />
The main day, Holi, also known as Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi, is celebrated by people throwing coloored powder and colored water at each other. Bonfires are lit the day before, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi). The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of god Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his unshakable devotion. Holika Dahan is referred to as Kama Dahanam in Andhra Pradesh.<br />
