Bangalore-Kasargode-Mangalore-Bangalore

Me and Dhanya travelled to the northen tip of Kerala to attend a seminar on Missionaries and their influence in north Malabar and South Canara.

The other pictures are some of the best i have ever taken. They are crude wallpapers i found in a Basel Mission Lower Primary School in Kanghagad.  This is one of the oldest schools in North Malabar – a mere 110 years.  Now, some say education is not up to the mark in India but in this school through these picture; i understand the reality is something different. Some of them convey strong messages with alacrity,foreseeing a catastrophe unfolding in Kerala due to the indiscriminate atrocities committed against nature.
