MUMBAI: BBC World News is launching a travelogue Travel India. The six-part series of journey to India’s spiritual sites, urban business centres and underdeveloped rural areas will be presented by Harsha Bhogle. It will air every Saturday at 7 pm.

Bhogle starts his journey from the Rann of Kutch in Gujarat and then makes his way to Bikaner. Moving on, Bhogle reaches the Golden Temple in Amritsar before travelling to Kashmir where he visits Wagah. He then travels to Delhi and Uttar Pradesh where he visits Benares.

His journey continues to Bihar and West Bengal where he meets the Sunderbans tribes. Then he hops to the south where he has a stopover at Hyderabad, before going to Kanyakumari. After his journey of the south, he heads west to Nashik to tipple and taste some wine along with a crash course in wine making. He then travels back to Mumbai to wrap up his adventure, a trip that takes a full circle back to the point of origin.

BBC World News programmes head Paul Gibbs says, “The Travel India series uncovers the diverse and unexplored facets of India as it stands today. It’s an exciting discovery of the unexpected which gives a unique and intriguing insight into amazing India.”
