Here come the long awaited photo stories from the boys of Nallagutta!

Most newcomers to Hyderabad would agree that one of the most daunting things about the city is its traffic. In fact, even locals, who have become thoroughly accustomed to the chaotic streets, agree that it is one of the things the city really needs to improve. In this photo story, the boys show us some of the perils of traffic in Hyderabad and express their hope for change.

Chewing tobacco has historically been a favorite among substances used by men, and even women, in India. As our boys slowly transition into men, they have increasingly begun to see their friends pick up this habit. And many of them have already felt the pressure to pick it up themselves. But the students of Nallagutta show us why using this form of tobacco, known here as Gutkhas, is an absolute no-no for them.
