Ashi s first day at Mayo school at Ajmer and visit to Ajmer Dargah on 3/4 April 2009

Ashi Misra is my grand son and he was to join in vii th class at Mayo college at Ajmer.Ever since he got admission in this college we along my daughter were busy in arrnging the the docoments and the packing work as he was going to boarding for the firt time away from the house.We arrnged his TC and went straight to cant staion Delhi .The journy was quite comfortable.We stayed at Rajasthan ministry of tourisam Hotel at Khaden.Luckily got one double Ac room.We took a taxi and reached the Mayo college .We got our documents checked by the School faculty .Ashi was given the accomodation in Oman House.We were given the books and note books and the whole uniforms shoes and sports shoes .after collecting the necessry maaterial we have to mark the admission number on each and every item.Ahitabh 's papa came along with his mother (AHitabhs DadiMrs Mishra)and helped in all the activities.We were astonished that all have so much love affection for Ashi that they came all the way by car driving From Jhansi for this .The parents in India have one thing in mind that their ward should stand on their feet and become good and shining citizens of nation so that the country can rely on this generation.So all the hectic activities kept us busy .In the evening there was a parents meeting with the principal at the get to gether at tea party.some of parents put questions and the same were replied satifactorily .Thi college has a history of about 150 years old.Some of the students brought larels to nation in sports and other fields .Any way we stayed for that day and we were advised by the the principal that we the parents should come again the next day at about 2pm to meet thier wards .some parents wanted to keep some pocket money with thier wards to which Mr Honye the house Keeper told them that there was no need for thesanme as the college authorities had already charged Rs 500/ per month in their fees.So the college authories will give them every month for their petty pocket money.In the hostel the bell stats ringing at the time of school and then at lunch time .every child has to be ready.The students are at first floor and the class at the the ground floor.the students have to complete the home work in the classes and they have to go for supports.So seeing all this we returned with satisfied frame of mind and with the hope that our ward is in safe hands.We have been told that we can talk to our ward on Sundays on Sundays between 10 am to 8 pm.At 10 the children are advised to sleep.When all the things were complete we went to visit to say prayers at Ajmer Chishdi Ki Dargah as our prayer was heard by the grace of the Peer Baba.We offered prayers and bowed our heads at the Dargah and tied the sacred thread at the Dargah of Sufi peer Baba.The gate of Dargah are closed at 2pm and we were just in time.There was no point of religion and we saw all the people of different faith offering the prayers.Even visitors from foreign countries come here to offer prayers.There is great Karahi where people offer their donations .As is the case there was written that the visiters should be careful regarding their purses money and mobile phones and thse items are banned to carry.The report is some persons pick pockets at this piou place.After that we started our return journey by car we strted at 5 pm and reached Delhi at 11pm.After that now we are thinking how much energy came to us and we never got tired .I think it is a chamatkar in our lives .otherwise we feel lazy and complain that we are old persons and try to avoid so many works on the basis of health or other lame excuses. So where there is a will there a is away.One startling news was that the principal told that he was leaving the school on 22nd April 2009 as he has served the institution so well and he is such a nice person we wished that he should serve the institution for some time.
