A Camel Called Sanjeev

On the final leg of his journey, Sanjeev Bhaskar heads into the magical state of Rajasthan, where he samples the princely lifestyle of the Maharaja of Jodhpur and learns how Indian royalty has reinvented itself in a bid to become relevant in the 21st century. Deeper into the country, Sanjeev hooks up with nomadic camel herders and witnesses the birth of a baby camel. At the remarkable Barefoot College he sees how some of India's poorest people are being empowered and the caste system challenged.
