A man lights a cannon on top of the Raisen fort hill. About 40 kms from Bhopal, the residents of Raisen town still follow an age old tradition which involves firing a cannon to signal the locals for Sehri and Iftar during the holy month of Ramzan. First started almost 250 years ago by the Nawabs, it is followed with much ardour by the youths, generation after generation. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

Youths belonging to Muslim Teohar committee carry the cannon to top of the hill. During the whole month of Ramzan,the cannon is fired twice a day to mark the simultaneous commencement and completion of fast. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

Since the cannon is used for only one month , it is kept at the district armoury for the rest of the year.The present cannon uses 300 gm of gunpowder, significantly less than what was used in the past. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

The sound of the cannon blast can be heard throught out the town and 50 villages surrounding the area. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

Weighing over 47 kgs and measuring three and a half feet long , generations of Sakahwat Ullah(C) and his family have carried the responsibility to fire the cannon at the stipulated time. The cost of firing the cannon and its maintenance is borne by the Darool Qaza, Muslim Teohar Committee and the local body. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

In the past a much bigger cannon that is a permanent fixture on the Raisen Fort was used for this purpose. However, during the fifties its operation was terminated owing to destruction of the fort. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

Youths distribute sweets after successful installation of the cannon on the top of the Raisen fort hill. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

As soon as the mosque beams the red light, the cannon is fired signalling locals the beginning and end of their days fast respectively. (Mujeeb Faruqui/HT Photo)

Known for water scarcity and blazing summers, Rajasthan may well leave a traveller high and dry. A recourse exists in piyaos –temporary water kiosks made from khus, sarkanda and bamboo weaved with jute and kept at public places. Often placed by charitable individuals or organisations in summer months, a piyao is also traditionally considered an act of good karma towards wayfarers. Equipped with earthen pitchers, cool water is offered free of cost to thirsty passersby. Once setup, the piyao is a community effort in terms of upkeep and functioning (Himanshu Vyas / HT photo)

A Piyao maker holds sarkanda (cane grass) sticks to be supplied to icecream manufacturers. The declining piyao culture, has forced suppliers to shift to economically inferior crafts. (HimanSHU VYAS / HT PHOTO)

Mohammed Saeed, a sixth generation piyao maker has been hit hard by escalation in costs and dwindling buyers for his products. (HimanSHU VYAS / HT PHOTO)

The oldest sources of water in the city - its glorious Baoris (stepwells) are mostly dilapidated while those renovated by the government are kept merely as tourist attractions with drawing water from them being prohibited. (HimanSHU VYAS / HT PHOTO)
