The next day, the blizzard was continuing as ferociously as ever. So we all woke up late & the day passed lazily- chatting, reading, playing cards, sleeping- in short, twiddling our thumbs. Some of us tried our hand oat cooking. So freshly cooked rice, alu matar & chappatis we churned out instead of precooked food. Regular trips were made to the Jeevan Jyoti to keep a watch on its functioning. We also went out repeatedly to collect snow for melting. This helped us in stretching our limbs and clearing our minds. It was very frustrating sitting inside with hardly any moving space.
We were no longer able to communicate with Maitri as the radios were out of range. So we were now truly isolated. Maitri would not be aware of our plight
