Foray into Madhya Pradesh

Drove to Jabalpur through a National Highway from Nagpur and came across something that thrilled me. MP Tourism has set up a jungle lodge kind of a hotel with a rest stop restaurant which others on the move can also use. Set up next to a thousand year old banyan tree, it is a lovely point to break the journey for a cup of tea or more. Some of the road is absolutely world class, and you can race the wind on it.

Passed the cantonment town of Kamptee, and towns called Lakhnadoon and Seoni. Also visited the marble rocks at Bhedaghat while there. Sheer cliffs of marble, and a narrow stream of Narmada in which boating is available.

MP is a huge state, and many more things remain to be visited. Pachmadhi, Gwalior, Bhimbetka (where early man lived-real early!), Sanchi, Mandu, Khajuraho and so on.

Meantime, placements have happened at a fast clip and we (IMT) got a lot of our students jobs in the last week. That should bring a smile on to many faces.
