Yesterday was Sunday. In the evening I ( along with a friend, Suresh) thought to go to Pandesara, a working class migrant locality primarily inhabited by people from Orissa, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Once upon a time, STD phone booths were defining features on the landscape of these localities. Now, these booths are accompanied with money remittance channels. This one offers transferring money through Internet to any villages falling under the list of districts. Here the list is populated by places of eastern Utter Pradesh and Western Bihar, historically a region supplying labour to sugar plantations of Fiji, Mauritius, Caribbean islands. Then to Jute mills of Calcutta and tea plantations of Assam. Time changed railway came and Mumbai and then Delhi became the destination. Surat is also not a recent entry.
