You have dedicated your precious time in the Himalayas to show the world how beautiful life can be without owning a house or land. You remind us that what truly makes a home is family. While we often get caught up worrying about material possessions, your work inspires us to appreciate the simplicity and beauty of life. I also encourage you to explore my district, Sirmour, in Himachal Pradesh. Our Hatti community has a rich history as one of the largest kingdoms in the Himalayas, with roots linked to Jaipur. The Gujjar culture here mirrors that of the Bakarwals and Gaddis, who take their buffaloes to the higher Shivalik mountains during summer. Additionally, the Dodra Kwar area of Shimla, nearby, is another hidden gem worth showcasing.
Thanks "India in Motion" for Videographing the Bakarwal Nomads of JammuKashmir for the larger Audience ... In JammuKashmir we have another beautiful Nomadic Community called "Gaddis" as you have mentioned in the documentary... These local indigenous communities add much beauty to the cultural landscape of the region.. In these fast changing times and due to depleting forests, urbanization and industrialization, their space is shrinking fast.. These communities should be supported to preserve their centuries old culture and traditions.... Thank you❤🌹🙏
The coverage of Bakarwal Shepherds provides insight into their lifestyle, demonstrating how they handle challenging situations. Thank you for your immense efforts. This channel is any eye opener.
So many beautiful moments. The image of the children smiling at the camera will stay with me for a long time. As a reminder to smile more often. You and your videos are a balm to the soul, Saravana!
Saravana you have done a great job in documenting the summer season of these people. It is a pleasant time after sharing the road with impatient drivers and thieves. The drone shots of the Machail road and group crossing the river are superlative! So interesting to see how well they handle this hard outdoor life. The wool board needs to assist these people!
It's fascinating to see the real life of these Nomad.... Government and other NGOs should contribute to the lives of these people while preserving the originality of their cultural Heritage
Absolutely. I'am also reaching out to some NGOs i know to see if they can help in any way. I'am trying to distribute portable solar panels to these people to help them charge their phones on the go.
You are a one man documentary film maker! Kudos to you for a wonderful documentation of a way of life which a lot of us think is very romantic and charming but in fact involves a lot of hardship. What really struck me was the fact that now due to changes in the governmental set up the Bakkarwals are compelled to dump their precious commodity of fine wool from their sheep ...... I sincerely hope that someone in the local administration who has decision making capabilities can reverse this trend by making sure that a fair price is paid for the wool and that all their supply is bought. Thank you once again for producing such an informative and in depth video - I know it has taken months of hard work on your part to get this together. My best wishes are with you as always and do keep making this kind of content, as it is unique in the RUclips universe!🙂
Thank you so much Mr.Alok. Hopefully videos like this will bring out more awareness about the difficulties faced by these people. I will also try to reach out to some NGOs that I know and see if they can do anything to help.
Hi INM, Every time I watch one of your videos, after a long wait, I fall in love with the raw beauty of nature all over again. The way you present it, combined with the soothing background music, deeply touches my heart. I can't resist leaving a comment to show my appreciation for your work. Thank you for filling my day with such wonderful memories of nature. One small correction: regarding the structure built for residing, it's not "Kota" but "Kotha." Thanks again for your amazing efforts!
Thanks for the kind words Rohit. And thanks for the correction.. It is too late to change it now. I should have probably checked the spelling with my friends.

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I have been to Dodra Kwar in 2012 when i did the Rupin pass solo. Would love to go there again.

Well said ... we need to find ways to preserve these traditions while still accounting for the aspirations of the people.
You people are an important part of our society
