Can you guess the location in this picture?
When our group of 18 IAS trainees began our Bharat Darshan journey, I wondered if it was going to be a mere transit from place to place. After visiting 15 odd states and travelling 20,000 km, I couldn’t have been more wrong.
Near the Sino-Indian border, staying with the Army made us witness the tough life of our jawans. In Sikkim’s aspirational district, we’ve learnt how Gram Panchayats can work effectively to deliver public services. Down south in Chennai we visited Tulir, an NGO working tirelessly fighting child sexual abuse. In Chattisgarh, we’ve seen how an ultra-modern smart city was built from the ground up.
Can you guess the location in this picture?
No matter where we travelled, each place had something to teach us, something to inspire us. In all its diversity, our journey has taught us one lesson: India’s diversity is not only a source of unity but also its strength and beauty. And no amount of reading could’ve have substituted that sheer rawness of visual experience.
I wanted to write and document about it all. But sometimes to relive the journey, mere words aren’t enough. So here we present our story.

The video is great
Perfectly edited
My favourite part is definitely CHAPTER 1
As i have profound fondness for nature and also for sikkim state
Although i had never been to that state
I love the fact that it is one of cleanest state with 100 percent sanitation and i could clearly see the beauty of nature. I am pretty sure people can sense peace from that state with buddism all over . Tathagata tsal was truly beautiful
every chapter is beautifully illustrated so its difficult to select one . but i definitely like to mention that after watching this video i have been thinking of doing Bharat darshan at least once in life :)

Sikkim is multi ethnic and multilingual state. we could clearly see beauty of nature at 2:36.
I think you gained more experience from Sikkim.
Watched incredible India from the lens of most credible persons of india.Thanq very much sir for showing the colours of India.
Hello, Anudeep Sir,
First of all thanks sir for sharing the "BHARAT DARSHAN" experience with us, Each Chapter has its own importance, and teach something which is beyond words. No Chapter is less important than others. But at the end of the video, the feeling of oneness emerged that is incredible. No matter where we live, all the parts of India whether it is mountainous areas, Oceanic part, Desert areas or Forest areas, they are the testimony of India's Oneness. Unity in Diversity is our real strength. "Jai hind".
Wow sir
Isiliye log ias ke liye bante h
Best days of life
