Sulaiman bhai and some other members went to another tampal at umerkot they took some pics of shops with their unique name

Words of Sulaiman bhai :
From the top we could literally see Umerkot in its entirety. We noticed a big Mandir in the distance and decided to have a look at one if anyone would let us in providing it was open.

We walked in the heat through the winding galyan and realized if we followed the white local cows we may get to the mandirs much quicker. We had difficulty navigating through the tiny streets but eventually, after much inquiries from locals we found the Mandir we had been looking.

Sulaiman bhai :
We took a few snaps of the Gods in the mandirs and its interior designs. We then quickly made our way back to the Hiace and drank down a few ice cold glasses of water from the cooler. We were burning inside from the heat, and even after getting into the Hiace with full AC we were still perspiring for quite some time.

After spending 2 to 3 hours at Umerkot, we decided to move for Nagarparkar, but when we reached at Main Road what we saw the road was blocked by bushes and army men were trying to clear it, we took another way to go but there was a huge rally coming from opposite side, On bikes, a lot of BANDAY holding DANDAY with them We supposed that they will definitely attack on us, so for the safty precautions, immediately we moved our ride in a nearby street. when rally crossed, we again took a road where a bus going to islamkot, we follow that bus and when we feel safe, we started again our journey with relaxing mood.
