Agra
Western gate of Taj Mahal. Crowds of tourists, marble shine, and two women from Italy in a blue pink sari, Alicia and Bruna. The wind was strong, the sari was flying. Pallu was falling down again and again. He tried many times, made plates, but the saree was not getting correct. People present around making videos, people but no one came near and helped. Then Laxmi Devi, a woman soldier of UP police, came to light. Lakshmi neither panicked nor hesitated. With a cute smile, he said May I help you?
After this, the moment started, which became the most memorable part of the entire India trip of both those foreign guests. Lakshmi Devi took care of both of them in a very intimate way. Made plates, stabbed the pallu on the shoulder well and taught them how to walk, how to sit so that the sari does not come in the leg, and remain comfortable the whole time.
Both also asked a lot of questions
Alicia asked, Lakshmi smiled on this every day and said that at the festivals, at home, and sometimes on duty. There is also a saree in our uniform. When Lakshmi said that Pallu means dignity, and the plates are like discipline, then Alicia and Bruna showed curiosity and respect in the eyes. Bruna said that now it is understood, Indian women look so comfortable and beautiful in saris. This is not a cloth, a culture.
People kept watching, but what Lakshmi did, he touched the heart
Whether someone is recording this whole process, it does not matter. The scene was recorded directly in the hearts of foreign guests. In the shadow of the Taj Mahal, the language was different between two foreign tourists and one Indian women policemen, but the emotion and honor from one.
Not just a monument, it was experience
Alicia and Bruna were on a tour of India. Delhi had seen, now came to Agra and further her attitude towards Jaipur. But according to him, “The Taj Mahal is beautiful, but the most lovely experience we got was with Lakshmi. Lakshmi Devi said on this whole incident, I did what my mother would do, my sister, or an Indian woman would do. The sari is part of Indian culture and she is our guest. Finally Alicia said Thank You, Lakshmi.
