  • 16th October 2015, Delhi, India. A man travels in a wheelchair down the centre of Raj Path in Delhi, India on the 16th October 2015.<br />
<br />
Rajpath (meaning "King's Way") is the ceremonial boulevard in New Delhi, India, that runs from Rashtrapati Bhavan on Raisina Hill through Vijay Chowk and India Gate to National Stadium, Delhi. The avenue is lined on both sides by huge lawns, canals and rows of trees. Considered to be one of the most important roads in India, it is where the annual Republic Day parade takes place on 26 January. Janpath (meaning "People's Way") crosses the road. Rajpath runs in east-west direction. Roads from Connaught Place, the financial centre of Delhi, run into Rajpath from north<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 />

  • 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 />

He lived through the last major earthquake to hit Nepal 81 years ago in 1934. <br />
<br />
Sindhupalchowk District has seen around 2100 deaths as of 3rd May 2015 which is nearly a third of all fatalities recorded in Nepal from the earthquake with magnitude 7.8 that occurred near Lamjung, Nepal, 50 miles northeast of the capital Kathmandu at 06:11:26 UTC on Apr 25, 2015. The capital has seen considerable devastation including the nine-story Dharahara Tower, one of Kathmandu's landmarks built by Nepal's royal rulers as a watchtower in the 1800s and a UNESCO-recognised historical monument. It was reduced to rubble and there were reports of people trapped. Portions of historic buildings in the World Heritage gazetted site of Patan have also been destroyed as well as many buildings in the old city. <br />

  • 19th September, 2012, Chandni Chowk,  Hardayal Municipal Public Library in Old Delhi plays host to many stray cats.<br />
This Raj-era library, was instituted by the British in 1862, when it was called the Institute Library. Now housing some 8,000 rare books (of a total of 1,70,000) in a building nearly a century old it has close to 1,200 members and gets several hundred visitors a day. The rare books include a 1677 edition of Sir Walter Raleigh's History of the World and a Herodotus volume in the original Greek from 1826. But these books, like the library, are currently facing a threat. It has been four months since the library received salaries for its staff, let alone development funds and its feared it will be closed.<br />
