We made an amazing contact over breakfast at the hotel when we met Peyush Dwivedi. Peyush was college chums with all of the MP ministers. He thinks our cause is noble and is embarassed by the lack of government response we have received. He got on the phone to make things happen. He offered to have our story in the newspaper. His uncle owns the paper.

Roadblock: Our overnight sleeper berth train ticket to Indore never clears standby and is canceled. This is a very busy holiday with school out. No more train seats availble for two days so we take a 5 hour car ride to Delhi then fly to Indore. Indore is a large modern city much like the US. We are here to reach out to local NGOs and goverenment officials concerning water and sanitation issues.
