Thanks indushek... I have been to HYD-SC area several times myself and was surprised how things have changed for the better or worse for this area. Most startling was the Hussain Sagar lake area.

Man my work place is just beside Hussain Sagar Lake. If u have visited this area then u should have also felt the stench there, sometimes i think the Buddha there must be standing there with hands on his nose .

Rural India is still humble and poor. Avoid going to popular religious and tourist destinations and you will find the real India. India which has preserved it heritage and culture for thousands of years
