15 Feb 2010-JAIPUR: Though the dust was believed to have settled in the RCA after Union minister C P Joshi's intervention to ensure a smooth match on February 21, the recent CBI raid on RCA secretary Sanjay Dixit's residence has again raked up differences in the cricketing body.
Criticising Sanjay Dixit, some district cricket associations on Sunday demanded that either he resign or be sacked from the post of secretary. These units are believed to be supporters of IPL chief Lalit Modi.
Sensing that Dixit is in trouble because of the CBI raids, most of Modi's supporters have joined chorus with Rajasthan Cricket Players Association (RCPA), who has time and again criticised Dixit on one pretext or the other.
"Since C P Joshi is a senior politician and a man of clean image, he should ask Dixit to resign. We have written to both Joshi and chief minister Ashok Gehlot to sack him," said Rajendra Singh Rathore, secretary of Jhunjhunu district association.
Criticising Dixit and RCA for online sale of tickets and for leaving out experienced workers out to various committees, president of Tonk district association Anant Vyas said: "I am not against any individual but RCA's image has been tarnished by these raids. Dixit should himself offer to resign on moral grounds."
Secretary of RCPA and former Ranji medium pacer Shamsher Singh alleged that since Dixit was "underground," the preparations for the India-South Africa ODI scheduled for February 21 will be affected. "It is best that he be removed immediately,'' he adds.
Meanwhile, the man in eye of the storm Sanjay Dixit took a meeting of the various committees on Sunday afternoon. "Dixit has chaired a meeting this afternoon in SMS stadium and it automatically dispels the speculations that he was underground'. He is willing to cooperate with CBI which had raided his house. Till now, he has not been proved guilty. So there is no question of him resigning from his post. He also inspected the security arrangements with SP (south) today," said a source.

Security lax at malls, multiplexes
15 Feb 2010-JAIPUR: The security scene at hotels, malls, multiplexes and eateries remains grim in Jaipur even after the blast in Pune which took nine lives and injured hundred others on Saturday.
The police said security arrangements have become important after inputs that terrorists are planning to strike at these places as they are frequented by tourists on a regular basis. In Pune attack, the terrorists had targeted a bakery which was milling with foreign tourists in the evening.
The administration of malls and multiplexes in the city claims to follow strict security measures as prescribed to them by the police. However, there are still many glaring negligence that one can spot.
At malls, including Raisar Plaza, Ganpati Plaza and others, there are hardly any security arrangements. Security guards have not been deployed and there are no equipment to frisk people.
"It is not feasible for us to check all the people who visit Raisar Plaza area every day. Close to 5,000 people visit the mall on a regular basis," said a representative of Raisar Plaza Vyapar Mandal. He added that the police should deploy cops to keep a tab on suspicious activities here.
However, management of multiplexes in the city claims to have all the security systems in place. "From entry into the mall to the ticket counter at the multiplex, people are frisked twice and they have to go through metal detectors. Their belongings are also checked before they enter the theater. CCTVs have also been installed at strategic places," said an official at Inox multiplex situated near 22 Godown Circle.
The tourists feel that security arrangements at eateries and restaurants in the city are not up to the mark.
"I went to a restaurant near Chomu Circle in C-Scheme area when someone told me that a lot of foreign tourists go there. I spotted many of them, but found no security arrangements in place," said Adrienne, a French tourist.

They also confirmed he had taken a room facing the road where the Jewish prayer hall is located.
During the investigation it surfaced that he had gone to Mumbai via Jaipur and might have conducted recce of some places here as well. But after two months of investigation, the police officials said that no evidence regarding this has come up so far. "Earlier, NIA has suspected that he could have stayed in a hotel or an inn in Jaipur for a few days. It might be possible, but our investigation has yet not suggested anything like that," said a police officer. As in Pune blast, it has been confirmed that Headley had conducted recce of places where the blast took place, the questions regarding Headley's stay in Pushkar and Jaipur are once again haunting Rajasthan police.

Is Dixit trying for anticipatory bail?
14 Feb 2010-JAIPUR: Sensing possibility of arrest in the passport verification case, the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) secretary and senior IAS officer Sanjay Dixit is reportedly trying for an anticipatory bail.
He did not turn up at RCA on Saturday despite the fact that he was scheduled to be there around 3.30 pm. It gave rise to speculations that he might be making efforts for lobbying in political and bureaucratic circles. A few close aides of Dixit confirmed that the latter might also try for an anticipatory bail.
The CBI is also closing in on Dixit. Sources claimed that two days after the CBI raided five locations belonging to Dixit and history-sheeter Ranjeet Singh Panwar, the agency is in contact with chief secretary of Rajasthan,
department of personnel, ministry of external affairs and Jaipur SP (south) and collecting documents from them.
They also claimed that action might follow after the documents reach the CBI. The documents could not be collected due to holidays since Friday. They added that some strict action against Dixit might follow in a couple of days. “Documents have been sought from four places and CBI team from Jaipur has gone to Delhi to collect them from ministry of home affairs (MHA) also,” said a source.
“We are investigating the matter,” said SP (CBI) R S Kalia. He also refused to share information regarding documents which according to CBI proved a nexus between Panwar and Dixit.
Meanwhile, some of Dixit’s aides claimed that he had written a letter to the Jaipur passport office in October, 2008 stating that verification certificate issued to Panwar should be cancelled on the grounds that he had issued it by mistake. They also claimed that Ranjeet at that time was manager of kabbadi team which was to visit China and Dixit had issued the certificate in good faith.
The raids were conducted following a high court order that was passed a fortnight ago in a passport verification case. Dixit had allegedly ensured a passport for Singh under the tatkal scheme by issuing him a verification certificate despite the fact that the latter had many criminal cases pending against him.

14 Feb 2010 JAIPUR: This Valentine’s Day most couples in the Pink City will be travelling out to celebrate the day away from the hustle and bustle. It’s been a welcome weekend for travel agents who are walking all the way to the bank. “All the major locations in the state are booked, and even places on their route are packed.

It will be a peaceful evening for our regular guests.” To that the manager of another leading five-star hotel says, “We too are staying away from lavish celebrations.” Ask them the reason and they say in unison, “First reason is that people are travelling out and second is going by the spate of unfortunate events why take a chance. Guests who walk in on Valentine’s Day will get the best treatment is what we can assure.”
A claim is that V-Day celebrations aren’t extra profit making venture this time as it falls on a Sunday, usual party day for the city. “Had it been any other day we would have thought about making it lavish, but this time there won’t be any added return,” says the manager of the five star hotel.
At the Golden Tulip, they are celebrating ‘Two 2 Tango’ theme and even offering a Club Class ticket for a couple to watch MNIK at a leading cinema hall. “People might be refraining, but we believe it’s time to celebrate love and have added an extra day to it. We have kept the price reasonable to ensure that people walk in with their loved ones and in Rs 1,500 per couple inclusive of taxes we offer food and drinks,” says Sujan Ganguly of Golden Tulip.
Despite the club owners giving V-Day a miss the florists and gift shop owners are busy. “Combination of cakes and roses is doing well and an average order is for Rs. 500. It’s been good so far and the big push will come on Sunday,” says Renu Gupta, who has a floral shop in Malviya Nagar.

CBI grills Dixit for second day
13 Feb2010 JAIPUR: A day after five locations belonging to Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) secretary Sanjay Dixit and history-sheeter Ranjeet Singh Panwar were raided in a passport verification case, CBI sleuths on Friday interrogated Dixit, who is a senior IAS officer.
CBI officials they were only questioning Dixit and examining the documents seized from his locations on Thursday and it was early days yet to say whether he would be arrested. "We are examining the documents recovered during raids on Thursday," CBI spokesperson in Jaipur Atul Gupta told TOI.
After the raids, CBI had claimed it had seized documents proving a nexus between Dixit and Singh after which rumors were ripe that the IAS officer might be arrested. Dixit is secretary, command area development (CAD), in the state administration.
Gupta said he had been interrogated on Thursday and this continued on Friday. "He is being questioned about his relations with Panwar," Gupta added.
A CBI source claimed that as of now, there was no decision on whether Dixit will be arrested. "The investigation will take time and whether he would be arrested or not will be decided only after that," said the source. The CBI officials said that apart from documents, they recovered Rs 45,000 from his government bungalow in Gandhi Nagar.
CBI on Thursday carried out raids at five locations, including the residence and office of Dixit and Ranjeet Singh Panwar. The raids were conducted following a high court order that was passed a fortnight ago in a passport verification case.
Dixit had allegedly ensured a passport for Singh under the tatkal scheme by issuing him a verification certificate despite the fact that the latter had many criminal cases pending against him. The Jaipur police had arrested Singh from IGI Airport in New Delhi in July 2007 when he was flying to China as a member of a sports' delegation.
Meanwhile, Dixit and his camp are perplexed at the CBI action, claiming that agency's promptness smacked of vendetta as allegations could have been probed without creating such a hue and cry. "Ranjeet Singh is a politician and he has his relations in the sports fraternity too. The cases against him are politically motivated and he is not a criminal," said a Dixit sympathiser.
He alleged that a former RCA functionary was pushing the CBI to take harsh action against Dixit mainly to defame him at a time when the country's cricketing fraternity is keenly watching developments Jaipur, which is to host the first India-South Africa ODI on February 21.
"The second ODI between the two countries originally scheduled at Kanpur has already been shifted to Gwalior as there were reports about poor arrangements at Green Park in Kanpur. So all eyes are now focused on Jaipur as the fraternity wants a decent kick-off to the ODI series. But there is an effort to defame Dixit when RCA and Jaipur are in the limelight," said the Dixit sympathiser.

Sexual harassment of minor: one more held
13 Feb 2010 BIKANER: Police arrested one more accused, Geeta, wife of Om Prakash, in the case of sexual harassment of an adolescent girl on Thursday night.
She was presented before the court and sent to judicial custody. Investigating officer Madanlal Kadwasara told the court that Geeta, cousin of main accused Lalchand Nayak, helped kidnap the adolescent and took her to the servants' quarters in the army cantonment area in Bikaneer.
Madanlal said Geeta was arrested on the basis of statements made by accused Lalchand and the victim. He said the police will investigate the frequency of Geeta's visit to the army cantonment area and her contacts in the army.
Lalchand Nayak, accused of sexually assaulting an adolescent girl, was arrested on the basis of an FIR lodged by father of the victim. During interrogation, Lalchand Nayak told the police where to find the girl. She was found in the servants' quarters of the army cantonment in Bikaner. The servant's quarters was in the official residence of Lt Col Rajiv Mishra.
The 12-year-old victim was medically examined and her statement was recorded in the presence of a magistrate. She said Lalchand had kidnapped her last month and kept her captive in the servants' quarters. The child said Lalchand sexually and physically abused her and warned her to not to disclose anything. Initially, Lalchand assured her that he would marry her soon. Police registered a case U/S 363, 366 and 376 of IPC in Sadar police station. After medical examination the girl was handed over to her parents.
Police also recorded the statement of Lt Col Rajiv Mishra, in whose servants' quarters the girl was found. He said he was unaware of what had happened. Lt Col Mishra was asked to submit relevant records and provide information about Lalchand Nayak, since he was working as his servant.
Ma. General K S Kumar, GoC of Ranbankura Division of Army at Bikaner, has also directed military police and military intelligence wing to investigate the matter thoroughly.
The authorities are surprised that somebody could keep a girl in the servants quarters of an officer of Lt Col rank and not just the officer, but the whole security and intelligence staff failed to prevent such activities. It seems to indicate negligence on the part of the army. The barbed wire fencing in the area is missing at many places and land mafia has grabbed valuable land allotted to the army. Besides, anti-social elements may easily trespass into the area and pose a threat to security. Earlier, a Pakistani suspect was arrested in the area. Now after Geeta's arrest, the matter is taking a serious turn so far as trespassing by civilians is concerned.

Initially, Lalchand assured her that he would marry her soon. Police registered a case U/S 363, 366 and 376 of IPC in Sadar police station. After medical examination the girl was handed over to her parents.
Police also recorded the statement of Lt Col Rajiv Mishra, in whose servants' quarters the girl was found. He said he was unaware of what had happened. Lt Col Mishra was asked to submit relevant records and provide information about Lalchand Nayak, since he was working as his servant.
Ma. General K S Kumar, GoC of Ranbankura Division of Army at Bikaner, has also directed military police and military intelligence wing to investigate the matter thoroughly.
The authorities are surprised that somebody could keep a girl in the servants quarters of an officer of Lt Col rank and not just the officer, but the whole security and intelligence staff failed to prevent such activities. It seems to indicate negligence on the part of the army. The barbed wire fencing in the area is missing at many places and land mafia has grabbed valuable land allotted to the army. Besides, anti-social elements may easily trespass into the area and pose a threat to security. Earlier, a Pakistani suspect was arrested in the area. Now after Geeta's arrest, the matter is taking a serious turn so far as trespassing by civilians is concerned.
Newly-elected sarpanches want social audit to continue
13 Feb 2010JAIPUR: The Suchna Evam Rozar Adhikar Abhiyan has decided to carry forward the social audit of NREGS accounts in the state as demanded by many newly-elected sarpanches. Ironically, just before the panchayat polls, it was the then sarpanches who had protested against the audit. Demonstrations were even held forcing the government to rethink before the high court put brakes on the process.
"About 30 sarpanches elected this time are like-minded people and have won the polls through sheer honest means. They are not amongst those who spent lakhs to ensure victory. And it is these sarpanches who now want a social audit of NREGS to ensure transparency," said Nikhil Dey of the organisation.
In fact, many of these sarpanches were associated with process right from the beginning. Eight activists of the organisation have won from Pali, four from Sirohi, four from Udaipur and two from Kishangarh. "They are of the opinion that they will frame a common manifesto that would focus on transparency and community participation in all work. The manifesto would shortly be made public in a joint meeting. We then plan to organise a seminar for them," he said.
"This group of sarpanches will fight for a clean governance at the panchayat level and we want them to set up an example for others to follow," added prominent social worker Aruna Roy. She also voiced her concerns those women sarpanches who have won the polls this time due to 50% reservation and said that many of them are illiterate and could be misused by others into committing frauds in NREGS.

CBI raids Dixit for helping goon get passport
12 Feb2010 JAIPUR: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday carried out raids at five locations, including the residence and office of senior IAS officer and secretary of Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) Sanjay Dixit and a history-sheeter Ranjeet Singh Panwar. The raids were conducted following a high court order that was passed a fortnight ago in a passport verification case in which Dixit was accused of helping Singh get his passport.
The CBI raids happened at a time when Dixit was busy with preparations for the forthcoming India-South Africa ODI slated for February 21 at SMS Stadium in the city. Although the raids were in compliance with the recent court order, the promptness shown by CBI led to speculations on whether there was a political angle to the episode as Dixit had been at loggerheads with several factions in the state. His rising clout has also caused much heartburn among bureaucrats and in political circles.
CBI spokesperson Harsh Bhal told TOI from New Delhi that during the raids some documents proving a nexus between Dixit and Singh have been recovered and will be included in the investigation into the passport verification case. “I would not be able to comment on property-related documents seized during the raids as they are not relevant to our investigation. We have seized a lot of documents. They are being examined,” he said. Dixit had allegedly ensured a passport for Singh under the tatkal scheme by issuing him a verification certificate despite the fact that the latter had many criminal cases pending against him. He was declared a history-sheeter of Mahesh Nagar police station. The Jaipur police had arrested Singh from IGI airport in New Delhi in July 2007 when he was on his way to China as a member of a sports delegation.
Over 35 cops conducted raids at three places: Dixit’s government quarters in Gandhi Nagar area, his office in Jaipur and his house in Lucknow. The teams also raided two places belonging to Ranjeet Singh Panwar, including his house at his native village Todaraysingh in Tonk district and his residence in Mahesh Nagar in Jaipur.
DIG (CBI) S Suresh told TOI: “The search was only for documents related to passport verification certificate and relations between Dixit and Singh.”
One Prahalad Gujjar, a resident of Lalkothi area in Jaipur, had filed a petition in the high court in July 2009 pleading that Dixit should be prosecuted under section 12(2) of the Passport Act 1967 for issuing an incorrect verification certificate

Drunk youth drowns in Rang De Basanti stepwell
JAIPUR: A 22-year-old youth drowned in a stepwell on Nahargarh hills on Thursday afternoon. His body was fished out and rushed to SMS Hospital but he was declared brought dead.
The police said a portion of Aamir Khan-starrer Rang De Basanti was shot at the same stepwell. The stepwell, incidentally, is called Rang De Basanti.
The deceased had gone there for a picnic with three friends and they were allegedly in an inebriated condition when the incident took place.

The deceased, Rakesh Kumar, is a resident of Nahargarh area. Ahmed Asif, in charge of Brahmpuri police station, said "Rakesh had gone there for picnic with his friends. They were suspected to be drunk when the incident took place."
As there was water and mud up to 15 feet in the stepwell, he could not swim out . "When his friends, identified as Lalchand, Pradeep and Ritesh, saw him drowning, they raised an alarm and asked people to help, but all efforts were futile. They informed the police after which his body was fished out," said the in charge.
"We rushed him to SMS Hospital but doctors declared him brought dead. A post mortem has been carried out and the report has been handed over to the family members," the officer added.
The incident shocked locals. As the stepwell is frequented by a lot of tourists, they gathered at the spot. The police had earlier claimed that they do not allow youngsters to have liquor in the area, but the residents alleged that it's a regular feature.

Fake currency found in RBI store
JAIPUR: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI)'s Jaipur branch, on Wednesday, lodged an FIR with Gandhi Nagar police when the authorities found fake currency worth Rs 1.73 lakh during a routine inspection of currency notes done every six months.
According to the police, the RBI makes routine checks of the currency which is stored by the agency in an interval of six months. "They found fake currency worth Rs 1.73 lakh and handed it over to the police," said Kushal Singh, incharge of Gandhi Nagar police station. The police have registered a case and investigation is going on.
The police said recovery of fake currency worth lakhs of rupees has become a regular feature. Despite this, the probes have failed to yield results.
The police suspect these currency notes might have been circulated in the city banks after being smuggled into the Indian territory from Pakistan or Nepal. The SOG had busted a gang in Nepal a few months ago in which the cops had nabbed some locals involved in the racket.

Khuri Village In Rajasthan
Khudi is a village in Sikar district in Rajasthan. Khuri came in the news in 1935 for struggle by jats against Jagirdari system in Sikar. The village is inhabited by mainly Jats. Major Jat gotras in the village are Mahla, Thalod.
The main agricultural caste in Rajasthan is the Jats, they comprise the largest single caste in the state (9 per cent), and were, in the 1930's and even earlier, the most self-conscious and prosperous among the peasant castes. In 1935 their claims to certain privileges led to a series of clashes between them and the Rajputs, who resisted their attempts to revise accepted signs of status. The clash of 1935 is reminiscent of similar ones in other areas between lower castes on the rise and higher established castes.
The Jat demonstrations broke out in Sikar, the largest thikana in Jaipur State, and involved both economic and social issues. The Jats in the area had formed two associations, the Sikarwati Jat Panchayat and the Jat Kisan Sabha, and had received some help and encouragement from the British Indian province of Uttar Pradesh. Some of these "outsiders" were organizers for the socialist-oriented Kisan Sabha which attempted to mobilize the peasantry in the 1930's in response to radical pressures in the Congress.
The initial demonstration in Khuri village on March 27, 1935, was occasioned by a social issue, whether a Jat bridegroom should be allowed to ride to his bride's house on a horse, a ceremonial act asserting higher station than Rajputs were prepared to concede. 20 March 1935 was a day of marriage in a Jat family in Khuri. The barat had come and they were preparing for the toran ceremoney with bridegroom riding a horse. The Rajputs objected, the Jats insisted, fighting broke out, and an old Jat Ratan Singh Bajiya was killed. Jats and Rajputs gathered in large number. Jats sat on dharna and refused to return the barat. The incident led to further clashes, and the thikana police, the Sikar Lancers, under command of the English chief of the Sikar police Captain veb reached Khuri on 27 March 1935, warned the crowd to disperse. The Rajputs dispersed but Jats did not move. Captain Veb charged the Jat crowds with lathis (quarter-staffs), killed four Jats and injured about 100 Jats. [3] The incidence of Khuri was condemned all the news papers and by Mahatma Gandhi wrote a strong note in Harijan news paper about this incidence

Kheechan Village In Rajasthan
Village Kheechan is situated near Jodhpur, which is natural sanctuary to the bird Kurjan. This bird mainly belongs to South Western Europe, Black Sea, Poland, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, North and South Africa and Magnolia. It is known as Democial Crane. In India,
Banswara district was formerly a princely state ruled by Maharavals and was home to tribal Bhils, who constitute more than half of the city's population. The city was ruled by a Bhil ruler Bansia and Banswara was named after him. Jagmal Singh became the first Maharaval of Banswara after defeating and killing Bansia.
However, there is another theory that says the city is called so because of the abundance of bamboos (bans) in the district's forests. In religious connotations, the place is also called 'Lodhikashi' or Little Kashi because of the presence of eleven and a half Swayambhoo Shivlings here.
In 1913, there was a revolt by Bhils under the leadership of social reformer Govindgiri. In a massacre termed as the mini Jallianwala Bagh Kand, hundreds of Bhils were shot dead at Mangarh hillock where they were holding a peaceful meeting. The place has since become sacred and is called the Mangarh Dham.
Banswara state and Kushalgarh chieftainship got merged in Greater Rajasthan in 1949 when all princely states were merged with the Union of India. Banswara was carved out as a separate district ever since.
The district is situated in the valleys of the Aravallis and has a rich reserve of both flora and fauna. Tribals are the natives here and their culture is seen here in its original form.
The district is surrounded by Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, and hence boasts of a compact culture. The Vagdi culture of this area is actually a mixture of Gujarati, Rajasthani, Malwi and Mewari cultures.
About 160 kilometers from Udaipur, Banswara district is bounded by Dhariawad tehsil of Udaipur and Pratapgarh tehsil of Chittorgarh on the north. In the east, it shares its boundaries with Ratlam district of Madhya Pradesh; in the west by with Sagwara and Aspur of Dungarpur and in the south with Jhabua of MP. Panchmahal district of Gujarat also touches Banswara in the southwest.

Phalodi Village In Rajasthan
Located 141 km from Jodhpur District headquarters, Phalodi is an old caravan center in the Thar Desert. This town was a trading center being on the land route from North Western India into Central India.
Situated in between Jodhpur and Jaisalmer district, Phalodi. The city is well known for salt business, old historical presence, temples and the art works. Here a lot of migratory birds gather. Watching them circle in noisy, undulating formations overhead, or stepping gingerly across the sands, has to be one of the great spectacles of the Thar region. A small village worth visiting.
Phalodi is an old caravan center in the Thar Desert. This town was a trading center being on the land route from North Western India into Central India. The area saw a lot of movement in those times. Though various rulers ruled this city, it was originally under the rule of Rao Maldev Rathore of Jodhpur. Thereafter for a short while this town came under the direct rule of Emperor Akbar. But Akbar's policy of appeasement saw the town in the hands of the rulers of Jaisalmer.
Phalodi is thought to have been founded in the 15th century. In the books of history this town was famous for Jain and Hindu temples. It is believed that some of these temples are over 300 years old. There are a number of havelis in Phalodi. Most of them are typical in their style. Most of the havelis have their entrances towards the main road; special attention has been given in building Jharokhas and Jaalis to keep womenfolk in seclusion. Nearly all of them are painted in vibrant colors. Temples prefer bright yellow for the doors, a fabulous combination against pristine whitewashed walls, the sand and the colorful attire of the womenfolk.
Phalodi town is famous for its delicate 'jooti'. These shoes come in various shapes and sizes but will be decorated with heavy embroidery. You can bargain and buy some of these. If you like bangles then this place has to offer a lot. You can find it wherever you go in the town. A small bead jeweler's shop quickly puts together Bishnoi style necklace complete with enormous pendants. Correspondingly, workmanship and artistry of a high order also appears to be an inborn gift of the people here.

Khimsar Village In Rajasthan
Khimsar Sand Dunes Village lies six kms from Khimsar Fort in the heart of the seven dunes of Akla, measuring eight km in circumference. A water body in the center makes it a perfect 60-acre oasis of peace.

Khimsar Fort: The Khimsar Fort is perched on the edge of the vast Thar Desert of Rajasthan and is the most important attraction of this rustic hamlet. It was constructed around the beginning of the 16th century. At that point of time, it was basically a military structure, full of turrets, fort walls and stables. A Zenana or ladies residence was constructed in the mid-18th century after which the royal family moved to the fort. The fort was subsequently converted into a hotel that is often rated as one of the best heritage hotels in India.

A visit to Deshnok's fascinating temple of Karni Mata, an incarnation of Durga, is not far for squeamish. Here the holy rodents are considered to be incarnations of the storytellers, and run riot over the temple complex.
Karni Mata, considered as an incarnation of Goddess Durga lived here in the fourteenth century and performed many miracles. When her youngest son, Lakhan, drowned, Karni Mata ordered Yama, the god of Death, to bring him back to life. Yama replied that he was unable to do this, but that Karni Mata, is an incarnation of Durga, could restore Lakhan's life.
This she did, and decreed that members of her family would no longer die, but would be incarnated as kabas (rats), and these kabas would returns as members of her family. There are around 600 fami
Originally the village was called 'dus- nok' meaning ten corners as it was formed by taking ten corners of ten villages.lies in Deshnok who claim both decent from Karni Mata and that they will be reincarnated as kabas.
The temple is an important place of pilgrimage, with pilgrims being disgorged every few minutes from buses. Before the temple, is a beautiful marble facade with solid silver doors donated by Maharaja Gaj Singh. Across the doorway to the inner sanctum are the repousse (raised relief) silver doors - one panel shows the goddess with her holy charges at her feet. An image of goddess is enshrined in the sanctum. There are special holes around the temple courtyard to fascinate the rats' movements, and a wire grille has been placed over the courtyard to prevent the birds of prey and other predators consuming the holy rodents.
It is considered quite auspicious to have a kaba run across your feet. White kabas are quite rare, albeit there are one or two at the temple and sightseeing one augurs well for your spiritual progress.

Bishnoi Village In Rajasthan
Bishnoi Village is located at a distance of 25 kilometers from Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India. Khejri tree groves, deer herds, peacocks and migratory birds make it a serene location.
Guda Bishnoi Village is located at a distance of 25 kilometers from Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India. Khejri tree groves, deer herds, peacocks and migratory birds make it a serene location.The Bishnois derive their name from bish, which means twenty, and noi, which means nine, and they are believed to be the pioneers of the green movement in the world.
Bishnoi carpenters never cut trees. They wait for trees to die on their own or fall down during storms.They prefer to die than let any harm come to the environment and feel blessed as you come across maternity in its natural glory when you see women feeding little deer and other wild animals who roam around freely without any fear of attack.
Marvel at the neat and clean huts that dot the Guda Bishnoi Village landscape and be enchanted with the traditional ways of these people who lead a vegetarian existence and believe in conserving the environment.
The inhabitants of Guda Bishnoi Village follow the tenets preached by their religious leader Jambaji. They pray to Lord Vishnu and bury their dead to demonstrate their faith in secular existence as advocated by their guru.
The varied species in Guda Bishnoi Village include blackbucks, antelopes, chinkaras, peacocks and even cranes. Gazelles are commonly available in the Jodhpur district where they are worshipped by the Bishnoi tribes
The blackbuck is also a much-worshiped animal among the Bishnoi tribes who inhabit the area. Many men of this community have died in their efforts to oppose armed poaching gangs. The Bishnoi bury Chinkara that die and erect stones to mark their graves. A community stock up is maintained by the Bishnois to feed the blackbuck.
Tribal color and rural cultural grandeur best describes the Guda Bishnoi Village. Bishnois also have a strange interconnection between death and festivity. Whenever the head of a family dies, all unmarried girls, regardless of their age, are married off on the 12th day after death.
There are manmade lakes located in the Guda Bishnoi Village where migratory birds stop and drink water.
The Bishnois have contributed more to environment and wildlife protection than the entire country put together. They have learnt, with time and severities, how to take care of nature and grow with it instead of exploiting it.
Guda Bishnoi is a wonderland where wild animals walk past village huts; where the villagers prefer to sleep without food so that the animals are fed and are ready to die to save the trees and nature. The Bishnoi tribals lead a pure vegetarian and clean life according to the tenets preached by their religious guru, Jambaji.
A noticeable fact about the Bishnoi's is that they pray to the Hindu deity Lord Vishnu and bury their dead like the Muslims.

Guda Bishnoi Village is located at a distance of 25 kilometers from Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India. Khejri tree groves, deer herds, peacocks and migratory birds make it a serene location.The Bishnois derive their name from bish, which means twenty, and noi, which means nine, and they are believed to be the pioneers of the green movement in the world.
Bishnoi carpenters never cut trees. They wait for trees to die on their own or fall down during storms.They prefer to die than let any harm come to the environment and feel blessed as you come across maternity in its natural glory when you see women feeding little deer and other wild animals who roam around freely without any fear of attack.
Marvel at the neat and clean huts that dot the Guda Bishnoi Village landscape and be enchanted with the traditional ways of these people who lead a vegetarian existence and believe in conserving the environment.
The inhabitants of Guda Bishnoi Village follow the tenets preached by their religious leader Jambaji. They pray to Lord Vishnu and bury their dead to demonstrate their faith in secular existence as advocated by their guru.
The varied species in Guda Bishnoi Village include blackbucks, antelopes, chinkaras, peacocks and even cranes. Gazelles are commonly available in the Jodhpur district where they are worshipped by the Bishnoi tribes
The blackbuck is also a much-worshiped animal among the Bishnoi tribes who inhabit the area. Many men of this community have died in their efforts to oppose armed poaching gangs. The Bishnoi bury Chinkara that die and erect stones to mark their graves. A community stock up is maintained by the Bishnois to feed the blackbuck.
Tribal color and rural cultural grandeur best describes the Guda Bishnoi Village. Bishnois also have a strange interconnection between death and festivity. Whenever the head of a family dies, all unmarried girls, regardless of their age, are married off on the 12th day after death.
