People of Chhattisgarh (छत्तीसगढ़िया): frost bite

We meet amazing people in our life.
Though strangers they are
but bear character of profound depth and diversity.

Their story quote with photograph 
makes it magical-reality,

as if this being an incredible act of 
freezing a fleeting moment.


Portrait of strangers, inhabitants of a state

vibrant monologue of human life
to share herewith !!







"Our potato crop is suffering from frost bite, leaves are dying, underground tuber will not attain their normal size. It's because of sub zero temperature in the past week."
"What do you do then?"
"We are mending our-water pump and then going to irrigate the potato field. Watering prevents frost."
