Grant Road Station, 10 am, October 2, Gandhi Jayanti. It\u2019s unbelievable how much action there was. A little team from Akanksha painted away on a dirty, wet portion of the station as part of a larger initiative to make the railway stations of the city a little less dreary.<\/p>\n

Before we knew it, a painter on his way to work dropped by to give us his suggestions, a father with his five year old decided to not go where he was going and joined us instead! The organisers were so excited that they became our team of painters.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s amazing how things happen even when they feel like they\u2019re not happening.<\/p>\n

Hats off to the little team of Akanksha alumni, headed by Suraj, who worked on this!<\/p>\n

This is one of the two walls that the Akanksha team is painting.<\/p>\n
