Parting (Mettupalayam Station, 1970)


The child belongs to the National Cadet Corps. A group of cadets was being taken to the Nilgiri Hills, the home of the Defense Services Staff College at Wellington. His pensive mother waits with him for the train to arrive.

I posted another picture from the same time and place here:  Future Past.

...Ho teree yeh sadagee yeh bholapan teraa
Meraa nasib hai khilata joban teraa
Meree bahar tu meraa karar tu
Mastee se bhar diya tune jivan meraa....
