I was busy with the works of the departmental events and
expert lectures to both the faculty and students. Experience with the organizing
events is always demanding and took most of my time without giving some spare
time to sit and post few blogs. For one of the expert lecture, we invited a
professor from Goa University and I was assigned with the work of taking care
of that person. As the person was known to me it was not difficult for me to
converse with him regarding his whereabouts and requirements. The journey to
see small part or glimpse of Hyderabad started from the time I went to receive
the professor at S. R. Nagar.
I woke up at four in the morning and reached directly to S R
Nagar taking bus from Uppal depot as head of my department informed me that the
car arranged by the car will be directly coming to pick both of us at S R
Nagar. With a bit struggle with auto rickshaw drivers I was able to reach
destination. Felt relaxed seeing the professor; it was my duty to make him feel
comfortable as I only arranged for his visit to Hyderabad. I informed the car
driver in little Telugu whatever I knew about where we are standing and land
mark (TB hospital) Car came in twenty minutes to take us to the lodge reserved
for stay.
Narayana Comforts at Habsiguda is a good and economic lodge
can opt for but all the rooms are air conditioned. One more advantage is its
location, center to many places. After completing professor’s daily rituals we
left to college and the program went well as the scheduled plan.
Evening we duo returned to lodge and wet for shopping
resting for a while as professor wanted to do some shopping. Habsiguda has all
the branded show rooms and he purchased t-shirts from Mega Mart. While
conversing I told professor that the shoes and leather items are quite cheaper
here compared to any other places. He was quite surprised and showed interest
in purchasing. We went to Nacharam, I was quite surprised to see street full of
shoe marts on either sides. As suggested by one of my colleague’s husband we directly
went to Anand Leathers. Prices were very less compared to the branded ones such
as Bata, Woodlands etc., the shop had good collections and the service by the
shop boys was also good making professor to purchase more than one pair.
Exploring came to end on the next day dropping professor
at lakdi-ka-pool for his return journey to Goa. I was happy that I saw a bit of
Hyderabad including Nacharam, Planning to explore the city in the near future
as I have heard lot of places to visit.
