During my 21,000 kms walk, I clicked these two pictures randomly in two different cities and interestingly around the same time of two different days.
The first picture I clicked in Vellore when I was crossing a bridge and found it this clean.
When I was in Ahmedabad few weeks

When I was in Ahmedabad few weeks
ago I saw this bridge and due to its condition I clicked it.
Now, if you see in terms of GDP, Literacy, Population, Income, Ranking etc Ahmedabad leads in comparison with Vellore.
But literacy is completely different from education, people in south are more “educated”

But literacy is completely different from education, people in south are more “educated”
as they understand the value of public property.
Their educated mind gives them sense of ownership and make them more responsible towards public property.
That’s why you will find roads, toilets, Schools, Building, lot more cleaner anywhere in southern states.

I am still seeing messages where people are asking whether it would rain as it is being "hyped". Please note that if it doesn't happen we would be the happiest.
But unfortunately - the blogging community on the whole is of the same opinion that there would be heavy rains

One of the right arms of Shiva winds his lifted leg and makes the #abhaya gesture. Some of the earliest of these images are found at #kanchipuram , while some of the later figures of this dance form are from #Chidambaram ,

நாராயணபுரம் கிராமம் ஆதிதிராவிடர் காலனி மக்களுக்கு தனி சுடுகாடு. ஆனால், யாராவது மரணம் அடைந்தால் அச்சுடுகாட்டில் எரிக்க முடியாத சூழ்நிலை என்பதால், பக்கத்தில் உள்ள பாலாற்றங்கரையில் சடலத்தை எரியுட்டுவது வழக்கம்.
பாலாற்றின் இருமருங்கிலும், விவசாய நிலம் வைத்திருந்தவர்கள் நாளடைவில்
பாலாற்றின் இருமருங்கிலும், விவசாய நிலம் வைத்திருந்தவர்கள் நாளடைவில்
பாலாற்றின் கரைகளை ஒட்டி வழியை அடைத்து வேலி அமைத்ததாக கூறப்படுகிறது. இதனால் பிரச்னை ஏற்பட்டது. பல கட்ட பேச்சுவார்த்தையில் உடன்பாடு எட்டவில்லை. நேற்று முந்தினம் நாராயபுரத்தைச் சேர்ந்த குப்பன் என்பவர் மரணம்.
சடலத்தை எடுத்துச்செல்ல வழி இல்லை. விவசாய நிலத்தின் வழியாக எடுத்துச்செல்ல

Iconography, inscriptions and grandeur inside the 10th century CE Chola-built Somanatha temple at Melpadi, #Vellore dist, TN.
#Jain iconography carved into a natural overhang; 9th century CE. #Vallimalai village, #Vellore dist, TN. The state is dotted with numerous #Jain sites similar to this. Wonder if there is a book that explores the Jain history of the region?
Perhaps the most unique structure in the Kanchipuram-Vellore-Arcot region, a monolithic rock cut temple at Mahendravadi, #Vellore dist, TN. Dates to the 7th century CE. Built under the patronage of Pallava ruler Mahendravarman, this Vishnu temple now houses an idol of Narasimha.
