Actually, the size of the roads is very ample, and an as a minute observer, the traffic jams have more to do with the mindset of drivers, who knowingly or unknowingly, drive in a manner that creates traffic jams, where there is no need for one. Really, drivers in Shillong need to be trained in a proper manner on optimum utilisation of space while driving and how to avoid creating jams. The traffic police have their hands full dealing not with the cars, but the mindset of drivers.
Nohkalikai (noh = dive or jump, Kalikai= is the name of a woman).As per my friend Rila's Grand Parents,Kalikai's child was killed and cooked by her step-father,Kalikai came back home and had her lunch.She look for her child everywhere and realised she had eaten her own child when she found the bits and pieces(fingers and toes)in a basket.She ran out of the house in Agony with a Sickle searching for her Husband,she found him and killed him and finally jumped off the cliff.From that day onwards the Fall was named after her"Nohkalikai".

Dear Alf,
Nice to see your mail. During that era lots of WWII activities took place in Nagpur, Gondia, Ranchi, Barrackpore, Pandabeshwar, etc airfields. My father was in the Indian Air Force and he retired from Nagpur and is settled down there. Chindwarra is quite a prominient place now with lots of mining activities happening. The cricket is played in the brand new stadium in Nagpur. Thank you for your goods wishes. Keep sending messages. Stay healthy...Ashchak
