Answer 1

We stepped out of the vehicle at the end of the road. Immediately, our body sent signals that our decision to visit the sand dunes in the afternoon was insane. We had passed a few hamlets on our way to the desert. We could not find even a single soul outdoors, defying the blazing sun. Even the camels were slumped in the little shade offered by the khejri trees. In this remote place people relied on Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) to connect to the world as the area was devoid of any other network service.
