“After the peace treaty was signed at Armistice Hall, several groups were formed to take care of the restless situation in Korea. One of the teams was the Custodian Force, of which, I was fortunately part of! When I boarded the special train to Madras with my fellow members, there were already thirty cameramen eager to cover the news at the station. The civilians assembled with flags and shouted ‘Jai Hind!’ 

When I was posted in Vietnam, I had to go to the China Border to give a surprise visit to make sure that no weapons were being smuggled from China to North Vietnam.

By the end of 1987, I had explored so many new and charismatic places in my own country. But while we were in Fatehpur Sikri, the only thought that daunted me in the evening was – Will we see the next day? Is this the end of us? Then again in 1998, I got bored of my hometown and decided to explore another new state to quench my wander thirst.”
