Telecast of Mythological Serials during Lockdown, 2020 on Doordarshan

 In 2020, Lockdown was announced by the Government because of Corona. During that time people were having a challenging time adjusting to the new routine at home as well as worrying about Corona. Doordarshan came up with this idea of airing Ramayan, Mahabharat, Shri Krishna, Chanakya, Upaanishad Ganga and many more old serials. That idea was very successful. Those legendary serials gave people the  moral and spiritual courage which was the need of the hour. People showered their love again to all those unforgettable serials. Doordarshan set new records of viewership during those days, such a moment of joy and pride for all of us!! Children who watched all those shows for the first time, had a great fun as well as received lessons about ethics from all the characters. We all had memorable time in our house, immersing again in these timeless shows. Thanks to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting for this novel decision.

Jai Shri Krishna.

Prinsep Ghat (Kolkata) Visit

 Prinsep Ghat was build in 1841, in the memory of James Prinsep who was a scholar and contributed towards Indic studies.

Visitors to the Ghat enjoy the riverbank walk beside the Hoogly river/ Ganga. 

There is an arrangement of a boat ride on Ganga, for half an hour. Many people enjoy evening breeze during this boat ride. 

Also there is a Circular Rail Station in the Prinsep Ghat. People travel through Circular Rail to this place. 

We have Howrah on the other bank of the Ganga. The buildings of Howrah looks beautiful during evening.

Moreover, who can forget the second Hooghly Bridge or the Vidyasagar Setu behind the Ghat? All these combine to a visual treat for all the visitors.

It is always a place for a nice evening spent with gentle wind from Ganga and watching the river flowing endlessly.
