2015}
Dear
Readers,
Before
reading my Journey Trip let’s have a small pray to a b j Abdul Kalam Death.
Let’s close your eyes and pray for 1 minute to his rest in peace (RIP). On July
27, 2015 I was in temple tours along with my parents in Ahmedabad at night
travelling to Gujarat near to Surat to my aunt house. The main purpose to
Gujarat tour is for temple and river bath for puskaralu (rare event in India).
After reaching home, immediately we heard news about Abdul Kalam died. That he
was died with heart attack. We Indians were missed legendary person who
made India proud son also he is the 11th President of India.
Here is
my journey trip by Train/Bus/car:

Lonavala
Khandla
Vapi
Surat City
Ankleshwar Map
Bharuch
Vadodara - Palace
Anand
Ahmedabad - Gandhi Ashram
Junagadh palace
Veraval - Sand Arts
Somanath Temple
Somanath - Huge pigeons
Rajkot
Jamnagar - Tourist Place
Dwarka - Temple
Gujarat People - Dress
Secunderabad
Hyderabad
– Hitech city
These
are the points that were discussed in group discussions while journey with
other travelers.
1. In
south India, only Pain rice is available but where as in north India whole rice
and basmati rice is available with wheat specials.
2. Solapur
is a city with multi-linguistic and multi-cultural features. Solapur has a
mixture of Kannada, Marathi, Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Urdu language speakers.
But when we are travelling in train towards Gujarat, solapur at night. Some
tribal people started throwing stones on train. It was very dangerous even
train police securities where started searching for them and train was
travelling very slowly.
3. When
train was travelling towards pune city. Pune city is nothing special. Even Hyderabad
and Pune looks alike.
4. In
the way to Gujarat, all people are enjoying looking outside – wonderful climate
in Lonavala and khandla even train was covered with full of fog and beautiful
forest, resorts, building were covered with natural fog. But climate is very
sweaty. Especially when the train was passing through tunnels , it was very
wonder to see.
5.
Indian oil tanks, big companies like ONGC, KRIBHCO, Reliance industries and
many textile industries, Diamond making companies etc with high budget buildings
and residential apartments. For instance: 2 bed rooms flat costs minimum 50
lakhs, and 3 bead room flat costs 1 crore.
6. In
Gujarat, internet is available in all railway stations but here there is no
internet.
7. Famous
small businesses in Gujarat – Graduate tuitions, Spoken English classes, Call
Centre Training, Hotel Management, Vedic Mathematics – Institutes, Saree and textiles, Tourism and travels - car
or taxi, Newspaper ads, Housefly business, ship’s sell or buy business, Lemon
Pickles, and peacock feathers. Large business in Gujarat – Diamond polishing,
Diamond spacing, oil companies etc with huge turnover.
8. I
wonder that parents want their children to be educated but where it comes to English
speaking , it is not at all encouraged.
9. English
is the international language and under stood all over the world. But why
Gujarat ignores speaking in English?
10. As
I visited Gujarat (Surat), 2 times but I have seen there is no difference in
their cultures, food, dressing etc. from 1989 to 2015 year. Gujarat is very peaceful place.
11. In
Ahmedabad, most of the historical tourism places are looking like lover’s parks.
I think government should take care of our oldest tourism places. (Tourist
management point of view)
12. In
Gujarat lifestyle, 65 percentages is slum and 30 percentages is middle class families
and 5 percentages are rich people.
13. Why
coins are thrown in river in India?
Rivers
are considered as a source of fresh water. It helps in many important works
like agriculture, drinking, irrigation, electricity production, etc. In India
Rivers are worshiped by many Indians as they consider it sacred & Goddess. The
general reasoning given for the coin throwing act is that, “it brings Good Luck
to us”. It is also believed that it will bring Goddess of Wealth (Lakshmi) to
our households.
Other
reason is that in ancient time Indian currency was made using copper unlike aluminum,
stainless steel & some other elements now a days. Copper is significant for
health. Thus our ancestors had started a custom of throwing coins in river as
rivers were the only source of water that time. If coin remains in rivers for a
long time then copper present in coin gets dissolved in river water &
becomes beneficial for those who drink it.
14. In
Surat, Most of city is occupied with industrials. To know more I suggest you to
read – Management and Business ethics, Management of industrial Relations, QABD
- Quantitative Analysis for Business Decisions, Management science, organization
behavior, RMS – Research Methodology and statistical analysis are very
important subject in MBA. If you are not a MBA candidate then try to buy and
start reading these books.
15.
Compare to day workers in Surat, Hyderabad is more than Surat.
16. My
visit to Gujarat is second time in my life. Once when i am in childhood and
second – now after MBA. I feel very happy that now in North India, people are available to see telugu channels.
In olden days, Only telugu channels is available at 5 to 7pm in DD national channel.
17. In
Gujarat, wherever you go you will find many peacocks fly in sky and freely
moves in allover Gujarat state.
18. Small
Note: In Andhra Pradesh and telangana, any courses are given duration time is
45 or 30 days. But in Gujarat the basic time period of learning courses is 75
days. Because here sunset is 5: 30 pm and there at 8pm.
19. In
Gujarat, very less people read newspaper daily and in that only Hindi
newspapers are available.
20. In
Gujarat, There are two types of people are available.
a.
North versus South
b. Love
god versus dislike god worshipping.
21. In
Gujarat, they follow according to horoscope and astrology time whether it is
shop, school, cooking, etc.
22.
India is famous for cotton business but most of people ignore cotton stating
that cotton is costly. But you see for Indian climate and seasons one should
adopt cotton itself.
23. As
Gujarat is covered with river and ocean. One must use high standard products
like washing soaps, bath soaps.
24. When
compared to the year 1986, there is a lot of change in infrastructure
facilities. Number of flyovers, bridges were constructed and made the city
clean and green. The city is looking beautiful
without traffic jams.
