We were at Gir Jungle of Gujarat India of July 2010 and monsoon was on its peak. We have a Jeep travelling van for the Safari visit which was acclaimed by the driver and tour operator to be most dependable vehicle for the safari.

Me and my wife were travelling with 1 more guide and the driver. All of sudden the spring of the Jeep was broken and nearby garage and automobile shop was almost 26 kilometers away. And no other vehicles was passing by and no network coverage in any cellular network (Not even for SOS)

That was miserable time as it was almost 6:00 pm and the jungle was dark with the wild animals in it like Lions, leopards and hyenas. We were stuck and no one can alone go on walk to bring the help and if both of them go we can die by fear only.

And suddenly a local person come on walk as he was called as "Maldharis" who reside within jungle with small houses colony of 3/4 houses called "Nesda" or "Nes" and he taken both of us to his house and we send both driver and guide to bring help.

In that dark jungle we were in middle of the jungle and they host us for full night stay. with delicious authenticate gujarati food.

God bless them.
