In 1994, soon after the break-up of the Soviet Union, I led the Central Asia Expedition - a 12,000 km journey across Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Chinese Turkestan (Xinjiang) and Tibet.
The purpose of the journey, besides adventure, was to renew India's ancient academic and cultural links with the people of Central Asia.
The expedition was conceived and organised by Major HPS Ahluwalia, President of Youth Exploring Society.
The 5-part serial on the expedition, commissioned by Doordarshan, was produced by Michael Haggiag and directed by Goutam Ghoshe.
The detailed account of the expedition is given in my book Silk Road on Wheels.
Episode 1 introduces the expedition and gives an account of the journey through Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
