as mentioned in my previous posts, today 4 fronts were opened for katai - however GH decided to send 50 strong Katai folks to khet behind engineering college hostel. I also went in that - and we got a bit khet to cut on our own - took us about 1 hour to do the needful as all of the people who went were good at Katai. Punjab folks have also started coming in for part-II of Bhandara and that definitely helps. I wonder in the age of outsourcing their own khets to Bihari labourers on contract how come these folks maintain high level of fitness.
anyway, it is always an out of world experience to have GH standing next to you in Khet as he maintains oversight on what is going on. You work with trepedition that you dont do anything wrong but you also work either work at 3 times the normal pace or some people just drop their pace to 1/3 and dont seem to move at all (esp when they are at a vandage point).
all done today - loading still continuing - but 3 hours of Katai has left me sore and injured a bit - so I came back after having Mathri and Gud. It is incidentally quite nice to work without excessive supervision - i.e. not have too many volunteers barking left right and center at you. Thankfully most volunteers seem to have been put on duty on Ladies Khet - where their own experiences have not been very good to say the least.
