Rajiv K. Singh Bais - Sindhi Colony Pachmarhi Road Pipariya Madhya Pradesh

1969 in Sindhi Colony Pipariya. Sparrows were every where. Nests seen on almost every roadside electric pole and in every gali (lane). Weekly Sunday market when villagers brought their grain produce on bullock carts for selling by the roadside attracted so many sparrows. Pipariya’s Galla Bazar (Grains Market) was a big market for the grains and pulses produced in nearby villages. Here grains were stocked in the open in huge heaps. Villagers set up their shops by the roadside on Pachmarhi Road also.
