I don't know why KZfaq India doesn't promote this content to everyone. Rather they promote unnecessary things and stuff to all across the world. There should be an algorithm where they should promote these videos for the benefit of mankind and humanity. India in motion is one man show. One day the world realises the sacrifice and dedication by this man , which bought so much happiness and joy to the world. Keep doing good work, It may be realisation to you and u love it. But, one thing for sure, by doing this u inspire many around you, which make this country happier than ever. With all the blessings for your journey for mankind.🙏🙏🙏

"Tabas have little that they own yet they have a life full of purpose and full of joy." Man, this line gives a chill to the spine. Here we own every "thing" of pleasure and are still not satisfied and are always running behind something unknown, something unachievable.

This channel is too good compared to mediocre travel vloggers like Tanya Khanijow or even Mountain Trekker or Nomadic Indian. There's so much patience, hard work and photographic skills involved here. Unfortunately the masses like quick overview of places with limited knowledge of the places offered to them rather than in depth understanding of a place or situation like this one. Saravana Kumar deserves a job from Time Life or National Geographic videos

Your videos are a treasure that will be valued for long. Thank You for gems like these :)
