I had been speaking quite frequently in Hindi as well as in our local
dialect of Mandi from our State Radio Station, Shimla.  This was in eighties
when I was working with the University of Horticulture & Forestry.

I would have loved to do it for NAFEX but alas I am located too far here in
India.

Well if any other kind of help is needed, I shall be to glad to offer my
services.
