It was the month of July and some of my friends had arranged a picnic party. The venue chosen for the party was the Qutab Minar. This place was so chosen because it served two purpose-one of seeing the historical monument and the second, of the outskirts of Delhi. We decided to have our breakfast, lunch and evening tea there. So, we packed our necessities and food-stuffs and went to the picnic spot. The day was very fine. Clouds were hovering in the sky. We reached the Qutab Minar at 9 a.m. we prepared tea on a gas-stove and took it with some snacks. We had also carried with us some musical instruments like harmonium, sitar and transistor. After having our breakfast, a friend of mine, Sudhir, played on the harmonium. He played two songs, which were so thrilling, enchanting and pleasant that we enjoyed them to our heart’s content. The lush green lawns surrounding the Qutab and other shady trees make this place a natural spot full of beauty.
