“A Banana for a friend….”
Pamho, AgtSP Berlin, Germany: One day during the marathon, I noticed my SKT partner was having an exceptionally huge day while I was struggling like crazy. At one point I also noticed that his book cart was running out early in the day, so somehow I managed to unlock and take it the van to reload it for him.

Book Distribution from Chowpatti
In the past we have seen how devotees have achieved spectacular success by distributing books in local trains of Mumbai. We have heard some daring accounts of intrepid distributors, braving all odds by shouting, enacting skits and giving fired up lectures in this crazy place.
