My Experiments with Uttar Pradesh

My Experiments with Uttar Pradesh

I traveled UP during monsoon, found many of fellow villagers are suffering from ever new types of fever and stomach diseases. Death because of a common disease is a very common story there. For 4 village there is 1 doctor and more 20 doctors in the nearby city are owning Mercedes, Audi and Volkswagen. Every street of the village is having an expert advisory (who is even worse in his own business of farming) to suggest diclofin, paracetamol or antibiotic of his choice to any family of size more than 10 kids plus spouse. Skin disease is like you would prefer to lap a lamb but cannot even touch a human kid.

In Agra, I happen to meat a street cart puller, he was teaching (5th September) me about the importance of prostitution, goons, decoits and misconducts on the women. His tactic to support his views was miraculous, I just got to imagine the danger of existing poor education system of this country after talking to him. Point is, if an illiterate Indian sounds so impressive for advocating wrong deeds, what if a honor degree holder will do with his/her unemployable future of tomorrow!

I manage to sneak to Moguls paradise, i.e. The Tajmahal... one of the seven wonders of the world. Indians have thrown garbage on it like it is there home dustbin. In the public toilets, a board is marked "Rs.5 for Indians and free for Foreigners" I recalled "Dogs & Indians not allowed. So worthy thought! Indians worth such tagline.

In my entire train journey, I managed to bribe and fool ticket inspectors to make this journey feasible for me and I was the one shouting slogan against corruption during Anna Hazare's fasting.

Incredible !ndia.... Jai Hind!

The Nightwalker!

The Nightwalker  …And the Starving Race     T he Nightw alker is the code name of a self proclaimed private detective . A young man of decent height and health, talented, college dropout, suspicious in his behavior, abandoned from normal society . He has decided to leave this world the way it is to design one of his own. He has simulated a world for him self where everything happens the way he wants (for at least till now) . He remains jobless for most of the time because not many pe ople hire Detectives and if few hires , they opt for the famous credible agencies . These agencies are audited and supervised. Nightwalker refused to work with any such agencies because he had only one thrilling reason to opt this profession i.e. live unidentified . Many agencies hire him but on his terms i.e. don’t try to find who he is . His commitment to his professions helps him mak e decent money . It is an achievement of his detective attributes that while he is r...

Syahi Sa Sandesh!

जलती निगाहें, मचलते ख्वाब  प्यार की तर्ज़, नफरत की आग,  नर्म मासूमियत में ये मेरा फ़न था,  जो कुछ भी लिखा, मेरा बचपन था!  फिर परिंदे को पर मिले,  गुलशन में कांटे खिले,  धूमिल तस्वीर सी बनी जिंदगानी,  मेरे ख्याल से थी जो लापरवाह जवानी!  अब पंख मेरे थक चुके है,  रेले आंसुओं के रुक चुके है!  मायूस.... अपनी परछाई ढूँढता रहा,  तभी चुपके से बड़प्पन आ गया!  लोग मशवरे में मसरूफ रखते थे,  और हम पहले से जरा झुक कर चलते थे!  मर गया जोश, जलापा आ गया,  सब चिराग बुझ गए, बुढ़ापा आ गया!!  एक रोज उड़ती पतंग दिखी,  झपकती आँखे जरा तंग लगी,  कलरव पंछियों की बुझ गयी,  और डोर साँसों की टूट गयी....!!  मेरी ये स्याही अब अग्नि को समर्पित,  दो पुष्प तुम भी ले आना, करना मुझ पर अर्पित!!!!  करना मुझ पर अर्पित!!!                                                    ...
