Strange Dreams

2011-10-19T00:20:00.000-07:00

Yesterday at 5 am(18 Th Oct 2011) as I was sleeping I found my old house near Bara Hindu Rao and walking near my primary school.As I was treading I saw Sai Baba in one of old garage of double storey building .I just entered in that room I saw Sai Baba who was sitting in old attire just a Dhoti and saffron long shirt.He called me and then inquired about me ,He just gave a Prasad to me and then he rather ordered me to have more and I had to take the Prasad for three times .In that dingy room some other devotees were also sitting .In the spur of moment Sai Baba stood up and went inside the TV type screen and started dancing and on the screen the birds pea cock and the animals also dancing along with him .Sai Baba was a Small statured man and having long curly .There was no affect of old age .He was smiling all the time.After that I went out side towards model Basti area and I found other devotees who offered me some Prasad which was some Small and bib fishes 'As they were handing over those fishes to me those fishes slipped into the tank .So I refused to have that and the matter ended .In this way the lives of those fishes were spared.So then I returned to my house at the same time some body knocked at our door and I woke up with those memories fresh in my mind.This shows that great persons whose soul is pious always remain in the air and come to earth in any form to help the world and to teach the lesson of love and harmony among all wordly creations of God.

Dashehra and old rememberances

2011-10-05T13:02:00.000-07:00

When ever Dashehra festival comes we remember that Lord Rama the symbol of virtues just conquered the symbol of evil the Ravana the king of Lanka.On the effigy of Ravana there is of a effigy of Ass on the top of ten heads and faces of Ravana .The Ass shows that although Ravana was a learned scholar but his deeds were bad .He (Ravana ) did not acted on the best and intelligent advice of Vibhishan(RAVANS BROTHER) and fought with Rama and ultimately was killed .In this way there was a victory of good on the evil.Now a days the life has become so fast and there is no place to burn effigy of Ravana Kumbhkaran and Meghnath and people have to burn effigies in small places in Delhi and major Ramlila is performed at Ramlila ground which are witnessed by the celebrities and the general public alike.I remember during my childhood we used to go to Ramlila ground and we used to collect the bones of Ravana small pieces of bamboos half burnt and used to feel pride of our efforts of collections.I still remember when we were residing in Manakpura near Filmistan we used go to Ramlila ground near Kishan Ganj area and enjoyed a lot in those childhood days.Now the ages have gone by that we have seen Ramlila.During my service time when I was posted at Allahabad we had seen that Dashehra was celebrated with great pump and show and the whole night the chawkies and jhankies were arranged in processions and people along side bazaars were overcrowded where the prossesions used to pass.People used to take seats enroute and also on the roof tops of the houses to have glimpse of Lord Rama ,Sita mata Laksman and Hanuman etc We used to return early morning to our residence at Alopibagh with satisfied frame of mind .This period was from year 1973 to 1981

Anna Hazare and compaign against corruption

2011-09-29T12:43:00.000-07:00

Recently I have seen the campaign against corruption by Anna Hazare and the civil society to bring the focus on this issue which is eroding the nations economy.For 12 days or so I was glued to TV to watch the every moment of fast and Unshun which lasted for 12 days without break.The govt on the other hand used all the possible ways to break his fast but all in vain.Actually the corruption has been taught by the Britishers for decades in the past.Our public has been targeted in those days prior to Independence.
Corruption has already has destroyed the big powers like Russia.In that country corruption was at the highest peak and for single piece of bread one was forced to bribe to the then Government of Russia officials.All this brought disaster to that country and the great nation was broken and the super power country was ruined.Now a days as Anna Hazare has taken pledge from the younger generation hope so that there may be some progress in this direction.But people should show sincere efforts to end this menace of corruption.Lets hope that better sense will prevail and once again India may be called Golden Sparrow or SONE KI CHIRYA.If young India has arisen there will be no place for corruption and the so called corrupt officers .officials and political leaders.I agree that there some good and sincere persons among our officers and political leaders .It should be duty of public to select good persons and the leaders who should work for betterment of our nation.

Good Handwriting in Hindi /English

2011-09-26T11:14:00.001-07:00

When I was in 5Th class our Hindi teacher used to lay much importance to Hindi Hand writing He gave us tip to this aspect.On those olden days we used to write either by Kalam or by Vaverli nib and it was cut at angle of 30 degree at the tip point and it is made smooth on the floor.By this nib we used write after dipping in blue or blue black ink.It used be as shining and good as if it is not written but look like printed matter.Up to 4 Th class in primary school we used to write with Kalam and after words with nib cut slant.Similarly we used G ki nib for better English writing.We had done practice in upright straight and slant handwriting
Similarly we made charts by pencil tip rubbed in angle and then rubbing from opposite sides.
Our teacher used to say a person who writes with good hand is supposed to be disciplined and has good character.Bad hand writing some times give shocking results and misunderstood.

Journey from to Lucknow to Jhansi during the disturbances on account of demolition of Babri Masjid

2011-09-23T12:14:00.000-07:00

In those days I was posted at Jhansi and had gone to Lucknow on official duty.There I finished my job and was returning to Jhansi by Sabarmati Express I got reservation in three tier boogie in upper berth as I entered the train I saw so many kar Sewak who were returning after the demolition of Babri mosque in Ayodhaya three or four sewaks were sitting on my berth and I requested them to please vacate the berth as I wanted to sleep on that berth to this remark they told that it was their berth and I had to accommodate them on the above berth there was no place to sleep in any berth in my compartment and I remained standing throughout the night prior to reaching Jhansi I thanked them that they did not throw me out of the train this was the state of affairs and which no body can believe on reaching Jhansi I heaved a sigh of relief During those days of disturbances so many kar sawaks started processions at Jhansi also and so curfew was imposed . So many government officials were given the duty of the magistrate duty's to curb the disturbances and to maintain peace when I remember those days I feel this should not happened in name of religion.Actually this theory of divide and rule was devised by the Britishers and where there was temple and mosque existed side by side the Britishers took advantage and tried to incite the different communities to rule on our mother land.All this happened after 6Th December 1992

Meeting Sindhu

2011-09-12T23:26:00.000-07:00

Recently I met so many people in the colony and one day I met a girl who is taking pilot training under Prof.Duggal.I liked her charm and personality and more so she's always smiling.I think it is a God-gifted nature which has been bestowed on the pretty girl named Sindhu.I personally feel that she will acquire and achieve the highest post in some airlines and will become a good pilot.My good wishes to her and I pray to God that she may remain happy throughout her life.At present she is staying with us as a family member.She gives a helping hand in writing my blog and to my Mrs.

M Block Saket New Delhi problems

2011-06-11T11:20:00.000-07:00

Recently we are facing a new problem when the old houses are being demolished and new multi storeyed houses are being constructed in M block saket by the builders with basement and ground floors as parking plus 3 floors.As a matter of fact this adds to the problems to the residents such as narrowing of passages ,affecting environment and shortage of water and electricity etc.Now a days we cannot walk in lanes and cannot come out of colony due to heavy traffic jam in and around Amity International school and Garhwali School and near M - I gate where HDFC Bank has been opened recently.The main traffic from Amity to Mandir Marg also started from inside the colony road which has not been repaired since so many years .This road along with internal colony roads should be concreted immediately.For the past so many months no work has been done in Nallah and the huge garbage and slush water is giving bad smell and there is a danger of dengue or malaria.One boundary wall of this Nallah has collapsed and there is no barricading of this boundary wall and at any day some car may fall in the Nallah.So these problems may kindly looked into at earliest before the onset of rains by the authorities MCD and DDA etc.These problems have been raised in Bhagidary meetings so often but the action is still awaited.

On the beginning of new year 2011 I welcome the readers who are taking interest in my blog and wish that there should be peace and prosperity in the whole world. I shall try to remember my past memories of partition time which still haunt me and the moment any thing happens this reminds me some new chapter of past.I shall again start writing with my sincere feelings.

Attending marriage

2010-12-12T10:27:00.000-08:00

Some time ago we received an invitation from Shri Y K Sethi (advocate )r/o 997sector .14 Fridabad to attend the marriage of his son on 11Th DEC,2010 and we were happily awaiting to attend this marriage.We arranged a driver and drove to the marriage venue at Surajkund.We started from Saket at 8pm and returned at 12 pm .At this occasion we met so many relatives and we also caught memories of past and I was astonished when I talked about my child hood memories of our cousin sister "s Krishna Sethi ''s daughter whose name in child hood was Nik and her sister"s name was Mik.Now Nik was standing in front of me and I was telling some story of Nik that her sister used to trick the class teacher by attending the class of Mik.Both the sisters face was used to be true carbon copy of each other .So the class teacher used to be confused.When I finished the story Mik told me that she is MIK and Nik has not come to attend the marriage.Now Nik has grown up and married and so must be Mik also.For some moment I was thinking that GOD is great and how great technical HE is that now body knows about His creations.I always bow my head and pray to GOD that all should enjoy the life to the fullest and always remember Him the Almighty for HIS blessings.We enjoyed the marriage party and returned with satisfied frame of mind.

Attending marriages in November 2010 ( Welfare)

2010-11-22T11:36:00.000-08:00

Just to keep a record I attended the marriage of my oldest friend Mr Mahesh Satija"" s son Vineet Kumar on 12 th Nov 2010 at plot 7 sector 6 Dwarka New Delhi.It was a nice gathering and after showering good wishes we returned at about 11pm .We were quite happy to see the couple .We have seen Vaneet in the child hood when we were posted at Allahabad in year 1978 to 1982.I was astonished that Vaneet recognised us after decades.Similarly on 17 th instant we again attended the marriage of our beloved late JC Batra 's grand daughter Mathli and met Mrs Batra ""s family members like Rajneesh Batra,Jainender Batra and their children who are now striving for their careers .I met Pinki ( Mr J C Batra s doughier ,Babli and their children ) We had a memorable time to see the future generation.When we were at Allahabad I remember there was one child named Kitty as I asked her he told her name but I recognised her by childhood name.She is daughter of Satish Batra brother of Late JC Batra who retired from Dhanbad.All these gave us great joy and old acquaintances were renewed.

God IS GREAT

2010-11-10T02:14:00.000-08:00

I am tempted to write that God Is really great.Once upon a time when we were facing the agony and hardships of partition in 1947 and running from lane to lane and hiding from the ruthless killings from some mindless disgruntled elements in Tobateksingh with convenience of Pakistani police and took shelter in Anaaj Ki mandi.Remained there for about 2 months and finally we were sent to India .Those were the days of horror and the memories went deep in our minds.I came to India along with my four sisters and mother and spent some time in Patiala camp.Later on due to some communications we found our brothers and father who were reported to at Kuruchhetra camp.Slowly we went on doing hard work and we were settled in India better than if we had been in Pakistan.It is a saying that Punjabi es are generally a hard working community and I am proud for the same.when ever we feel some need I don't know from where the Almighty sends the help and enshrines the path.Now at the age of 70 I feel that the past years are matter of days.Every day brings us hope for the better and we are grateful to God and will exist in this world if we act according to the wishes of God.I remember the recent incident when I was returning from J Block t o M Block Saket at 11 pm on Diwali night when a burning splinter came inside my new NANO car as the front window glass was open.As the polythene covers were not removed as yet so it caught fire .I took courage and extinguished the fire by my left hand and threw the burning splinter and polythene out side the car.For the moment I was in a fix but God has sent the courage.As NANO was new I was reluctant to remove the polythene covers from the seats so that it will look new.But one should always take precautions and should not wait for some mishap to happen.So God is Great is my firm belief.

Delhi Metro Train whether safe for ladies and children and senior citizens dated 17th and 18 th september 2010

2010-11-06T08:04:00.000-07:00

It was my desire that I should have a ride on the newly introduced Metro Train.Recently I boarded the metro from Saket to New Delhi at 2.45 pm and reached the destination within 25 minutes .It was a marvellous experience of my life.As I entered the train I was standing and some young fellow gave me the seat but my wife remained standing during the journey.I had to sit as I was holding the bag and other necessary items.We went to Jhansi by Rajdhani and returned to New Delhi the next day by Shatabdi Express Train which reaches New Delhi station at 10.30pm.Having a excellent experience we dared to catch the metro train from new Delhi to Saket.This time the back journey was horrible .There was great rush at the ticket window and we were also having a company of our 6 year old grand son .Any how my wife requested at ticket window and she got 3 tickets.On getting the desired tickets we were happy but our happiness vanished when we saw the long queue at screening counter.At this time my wife requested one police personal to allow her for screening of luggage at the priority basis.But the persons in the queue started objecting but seeing the disability of my wife's right hand we were allowed.Now it was a time for the last train and we hardly reached then the train came and we could get in the last couch.This time were standing all the way.We heaved a sigh of relief on reaching Saket but the ordeals were not finished as yet.as soon we came out of the station at 11.3o pm there were no auto scooters and if any scooters came but they demanded the double the fare that it was Rs 40/for within Saket just from D Block to M Block but we had to pay just to avoid any displeasure with the auto scooter walla .So long awaited pleasure of journey by Metro train ended in the most inconvenient and tiresome.There is no doubt that metro train has reduced the time but due less trains and long queue at the ticket window and screening of luggage make it uncomfortable and inconvenient. Again on second occasion now I happened to travel by metro from Saket to New Delhi station along with my daughter and grand son to receive my grand son we was due to come from Ajmer by Shatabdi.We started from PVR Metro staion Malviya Nagar and just missed one train and boarded the next train .This time we purchased the smart card which is worth Rs 100/Actually in this card sum of Rs 50/ is by way of security .I inquired from the staff whether there is any discount for Senior Citizens which was replied in negative.Thus we boarded the train and there was great rush and we were in the train no doubt but were squeezed.There was a great problem while getting out of the train I myself and daughter and took a shelter near the corner and get out of railway station as almost the entry was blocked by the passengers who wanted to get in any how.This time nobody gave us any seat being senior citizen and we could get down safely .In this short journey we have noticed at all stations passengers enter only as such we felt as if we are just like herd of sheep s and pushed in the train just like journey to hell .As I noticed and learnt that this is scene in peak hours every day and commuters are used to it.Any way Govt should improve the frequency of trains and also should reserve one couch for senior citizens also as it has been done in case of ladies.Only then it will prove to be senior citizens friendly.

condolence message regarding late sita Ram Sethi

2010-10-27T10:26:00.000-07:00

On 24/10/2010 I received the sad news of our Sita Ram Sethi Bhaiya ji who expired in early hours and we rushed to attend the funeral at 5 pm at Faridabad.we paid our homage and again attended his kiray ceremony in sector 15 Gurudwara.He was a noble soul and huge gathering was a testimony to this fact.Ever since partition he had settled in Faridabad and by dint of hard labour he settled his sons and daughters in their respective families .In whole of his life he did a hard labour and will be remembered with due respect for decades together.We again pay our homage to his departed soul and pray to God that He should give peace to his noble soul and enough courage to his family members to bear this unbearable loss.

Common wealth games in Delhi

2010-09-09T10:34:00.000-07:00

I have come across the sad story of common wealth games which are due in the month of Oct 2010 in Delhi.It is really sad to note that the things are getting out of hand due to the furry of nature.But still there is time and the things can be set right.It is no use to find faults and set up inquiries.As a matter of fact we should work as a team and technocrats or the nationalists should come forward to do shramdan to save the name of our country and its prestige which is at stake.Every citizen should put in some service in whatever capacity he is able to help the GOVT.People including some good companies and builders of international fame should donate their work force at this critical stage. If this is done I am hopeful that coming event will be a great success and there is no doubt about it.

BSES Workshop on 3rd and 4 th Sept.2010

2010-09-04T10:33:00.000-07:00

I have attended the workshop of BSES held in Multipurpose Hall in Delhi Sectariate near I T O fly over on 3rd Sept 2010.On this day the registration of RWAs was done .The officers of BSES had presented their achievements since taking over in year 2002 and enhancement in their services in tackling of problems of frequent power failures and reducing the power losses.There is nodoubt that there are less power breakdowns and situation is improved a lot.As a matter of fact the power supply depends on 1-GENCO ,2--Transmission 3 Distribution.There is a regulatory authority which manages and the company has fix tarrif as directions of regulatory .This BSES can take the profit up to 16 %.Some suggestions were made for further improvement and detailed discussions were held between BSES and RWAS office bearers .On 4 Th a presentation of earth worming or Global worming was quite informative and excellent.The session closed with vote of thanks and some prize distribution and test what we have learnt.I came back home with satisfactory frame of mind

Engineers and their dignity

2010-08-31T12:04:00.000-07:00

Today as I was walking and talking about Engineers and their dignity I remember that once Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru ji our first Prime Minister once said that the Engineers are the pillars our country and we are proud of them.As the country became independent so many developments have taken place and our country is due to become world power.On the contrary the general public is pointing fingers on engineers leaving apart their dedications towards their profession,This is the issue that our engineers should ponder as to why their image is being tarnished.We should take special care and should avoid greed and corrupt practice to fill our own pocket and we should adhere to specifications and improve the quality .Any way this is my endeavor that engineers should be seen with respectful eyes in our society.I am pained when some layman talks about the corruption among engineers.When any body says that if any one is engineer then he must have taken commission I feel pity on some of black sheep's who are bent upon to tarnish the image of engineers. As a matter of fact that corruption in all departments and all walks of life should be uprooted.This is my personnel view and in no way against any body or society or govt and I am expressing my heart felt agony and want that our society should respect our achievements and profession.

Idependence Day (15 /08/2010)

2010-08-13T12:51:00.000-07:00

As the Independence day is yet to be celebrated we should take pledge that we shall preserve the honour of our mother land and shun away the jealousy , hatred and all the evils which are prevailing in our society and will promote the brotherhood among the communities.Corruption should be rooted out as this is the main evil which erodes the progress of any nation.This is my wish and I am feeling pride in spreading this message to the whole world.

Jhansi Ki Rani on Zee TV Serial dated 12/08/2010

2010-08-12T12:36:00.000-07:00

As reported that Jhansi Ki Rani serial as dramatised may have some historical facts but showing to public in such a fashion is not in a good taste .It has revealed so many cruelties en lashed in the old days by the the then rulers of British Empire.The canning's of the Frangies and the torture scenes in the the serial will serve no purpose except spreading hatred among our people.The small child sitting by my side was inquiring so many unsolved questions which I did not answer as that will spoil his growth .As I requested earlier that now the TV serials should be censored and segregated in some categories such as Adult viewing and children or family viewing.We all know that had Jhansi Ki Rani succeeded we would have got independence about a century before 1947.I hope most of us agree that Britishers succeeded in dividing our people on the basis of caste and religion basis and they had ruled on us for decades .I have seen some of the incidents during partition and those sad memories haunt me whenever I sit and ponder on those sad events of past .

Happy birth day of Shashi Sethi on 30 th July 2010

2010-07-30T13:48:00.001-07:00

A s I woke up in the morning I just forgot to wish a happy birth day to Shashi Sethi and at the same time a bell of telephone rang and I picked up the phone and I was just heard "",hello dad where is mummy and asked Shashi that Montoo wants to convey good wishes on her Birth day "".Shashi has also reciprocated the feelings of Montoo and the kids and kitty and conveyed thanks to them.Only then I realised that it was my mistake and conveyed sorry to Shashi.In the evening I along with my little friend Soni brought the cake and celebrated it with some of our PGS and took some of the snaps.This was a simple event but we enjoyed with a zeal and refreshed our old memories.On this occasion Anu and Gaurav and P N Anand ,Santosh ,Dolly Subhash and Ashish Anand conveyed their good and sincere wishes to Shashi.We are grateful to them.It is noted here that Ashish Anand s birth day is on 30 th July .We recollect that we celebrated the birth day of both Shashi and Ashish Anand when we were in Canada during our visit to Canada in year 2007

Ragging in educational institutions

2010-07-21T12:12:00.001-07:00

A few days back I have read in the newspaper that Govt is serious and has the intentions to get rid of menace of ragging and started taking affidavits from the students as well as from the parents that they will not take part in ragging of junior students.If the institutions and the students make up their mind then and then only we can heave a sigh of relief.After the court rulings no body should risk his whole career by indulging in ragging .Let us hope for the better and a day is not far when the freshers will feel a congenial environment in their colleges and will attend to their studies in a peaceful manner.I again recall how a sort of introduction of freshers was arranged by College authorities in year 1959 in Roorkee University.It was all official as I have narrated in my earlier blog.

Lost things regained partially

2010-07-10T12:17:00.000-07:00

When I was making account of my life I am satisfied that some of the lost things are found.It is a good sign that not every thing is lost.I got my L I C claim although I have to try again and again.I also found a tenant and the financial position is easing but slowly.I shall win the case of Janakpuri also.I am loosing the hope of getting any claim for the money which has been stollen through ATM misuse.I am happy and enjoying a peaceful life with little kids and fellow aged friends who go on telling their happy and sorrow experiences of their lives.

Jaipur fire in I O C depot about 8 months back

2010-07-04T11:00:00.000-07:00

On 3/7/10 when I was viewing the TV I noticed the news that GM along with 9 0officer s of IOC were arrested on the charge of negligence for the unfortunate of fire which took place about 8 months back in JAIPUR IOC DEPOT.On seeing this news I was shocked as I knew that Mr Sayal was on sanctioned leave due to his brothers son marriage and more over his father was bed ridden and he came to Delhi to attend his ailing father.On hearing the sad accident he rushed back to attend his duties .At the time of accident he was not at the site and in his absence some other officer was looking after his duties in addition to his own. It is also worth mentioning that father of Mr R Sayal died after the incident .We know that Mr Sayal is quite efficient and hardworking and most dedicated employee of IOC who keep a point in mind that work is worship. In IOC the duties of each manager are distributed and all the staff are accordingly are placed in different beats and sections and more over vigilance is kept round the clock .Even then the accidents do happen as accidents are unseen occurrences.In this particular case the fire broke and engulfed the vast area and some people and IOC were killed .The departmental inquiry is pending to ascertain the actual reason and the precautions thereof have been taken or not.When the inquiry is pending the action of arresting all the officers en block and putting behind bars is not justified in my personal knowledge.The charges are yet to be framed and in eyes of law no one is guilty unless it is proved beyond doubt.More over suspension of the servant is only imposed when it is proved in the departmental inquiry that the concerned servant will be ultimately dismissed.When the officers or the servant is cooperating to the inquiry officer or the police arresting en block the whole unit will not serve the purpose .On the other hand the Govt will pay the suspension allowance and will not take any work from the suspended employees .This matter is technical and only techno crates can solve the issue and inquiry should be done as per CCA rules.In my opinion speedy inquiry should be made by technical experts committee and report its findings to the Govt for taking suitable action accordingly.All the above suggestions are quite my personal views and not prejudice against any one and the Govt should also consider the quantum of compensation to the IOC persons.labour and the public at large who were killed due this devastating fire to heel the pain of the kith and kin and family members .I have much regard for IOC as this govt undertaking has changed our lives and helping India in fields of oils and petroleum products.In my opinion arresting and suspensions are not cure and on the other hand demoralises the morale of employees concerned.Our sympathies are with those who were killed or injured in that fire in I O C DEPOT AT JAIPURE

12/24 Karol Bagh Sethi Niwas Zee TV serial

2010-06-17T12:28:00.000-07:00

As I have already written some comments on this serial I again want to advice the writers and producers that the serial should be impartial and should not mention the particular caste.Names of the community should not be dramatised in such serials because it may hurt the feelings of particular caste or community as a whole.When I was studying in tenth class our English teacher used to teach us how to write a story as ...""Once upon a time there lived a priest in a village Nowherefound near a temple .......etc......"" The names of particular community may hurt feelings of people who belong to that community.By seeing such crime stories I recollect that there were some magazines namely satay katha or Maya etc which used to report actual cases of crime but dramatised in a bad fashion.

Such serials should be marked adult viewing .If they cannot change the plot or the story then it should adhere to some norms according to our culture and the producers of such serials should not show the crime scenes as these reflect badly on the children ,youth and the public at
large. Should I hope that the producers and the Govt shall pay some attention on this vital aspect? There should be some good moral of the story.

Happiness

2010-05-21T11:28:00.000-07:00

Today is the auspicious day when I was just thinking about the sublime pleasure of family and when we become grand parents and enjoy the company of the kids and the bliss of God on the faces of the younger and the older ones at the same time and at the same platform of the world. They say that God is everywhere and it is blissfully resides in the younger ones because it is the real picture of God in them. Today I am just picking up the happy moments and some snapshots so that these may have deeper impressions in our mind. Today onwards I shall recollect only the happy moments of our lives and I shall share these with youngers and olders alike.

Amithabhs Birth Day (16 th May,2010) celebrations purpose Actual 22/05/2010

2010-05-17T12:12:00.000-07:00

Here I am trying to put the pleasing memories of Amitabhs birth day on record as I have enjoyed a lot on this event .A day before we started collecting the invitation cards as Amithabh wanted to call his class mates on 16 Th May between 5.30 pm to 8.30pm.On the last day when he was going to class he was gleaming as if he is the king and was on the top of world .On seeing this site I was thinking how God gives so such innocent pleasures to kids and as we grow older and older this pleasures goes on diminishing.We enjoyed with him and this happy memory will last long in my life.God may give him long and happy life and such is our wish.Here I must mention that Amitabh is my grand son (my daughters son ) and is so dear to us.Group photos will surely keep us glued to him when we see those childhood memory

Bagidhari Meeting in DC (south office)

2010-05-07T12:23:00.000-07:00

On 29/4/2010 I attended the meeting in D C South office and put up the problems of M Block Saket.Regarding which I have pointed out that there is one Tube well near J block market and is enough deep and it can be energised .The water will solve the problem of M block and as well as that of J block and amity school .The pump house of this Tube well and its boundary has been encroached upon but vendors and others.The nallah facing has not been cleaned and the jungle and bushes are growing and the slushy water remains near its roots and emanate the foul smell and this will result in breeding place for mosquitoes.the patch of nallah bed is not concreted.The internal drains of M block saket are open and MCD is not taking any action.These drains have become the dust bins and need repeatedly cleaning.If these drains are covered the wasteful expenditure will be saved.It is worth mentioning that the rainy season is near if not cleaned earlier the drains will not be able to take the load of rainy water and will overflow on roads.If this water remains on the internal colony roads will surely damage the road surface.
A few days later as I was returning to saket I saw black smoke in the sky and I out of anxiety rushed to that site and then I came to know that this smoke was due to the fact that MCD people had set the bushes on fire in the nallah.This way of cleaning the bushes is very much dangerous as there are so many residential buildings are located around this Nallah.Any splinter can give rise to huge fire resulting in loss of lives and properties.Burning of bushes is also effects badly on environment.I think that the authorities should wake up and do the needful lest it is too late.There should be traffic lights near the T junction at MCD dhalao opp site the Amity Gate and the school authories should be asked to park their vehicles inside their compound wall and alternatively should make underground parking.At present there is so much chaos at this point that no body including senior citizens and children can cross the road without being injured.More over the Amity buses and others car owners cover the almost full width of road leaving less space for pedestrians to walk safely.As a matter of fact this stretch should be made no parking zone as a permanent solution.

Tehraveen of chander Anand a noble soul

2010-05-01T13:10:00.001-07:00

As detailed the instances the finally we attended Tehrveen of chander anand in Temple of Janakpuri and were astonished to find that so many relatives gathered there in the temple to share the grief of the great loss with the family members .This shows that members of our community are united at time of grief.I respect these good points of our culture.Any way our beloved chander"s noble soul must have found place under the Divine Feet of Almighty God.

Annual day at Amity International school Saket New Delhi

2010-04-17T11:08:00.000-07:00

On Saturday (17 Th April 2010) at 6.15 pm I attended the annual day celebrations and it was good and excellent .His Excellency ambassador of Republic of NAMIBIA attended the function and distributed the prizes.The programme of Dare To dream was a excellent depiction of history of Rome.His Excellency showed keen interest and stressed for need of education.Dr Chauhan has stressed that our culture is the best and when a student touches the feet of teacher or elders he gets the good wishes fro the elders or the teachers as ashirwad.He narrated the short story of one person who used to worship God but at one instance he was so fed up with the problems of life and decided to suicide and started walking towards sea where there was a vast stretch of sand as he reached near the sea shore he found that the track behind were of 4 steps while it should had been 2.Then we was astonished to find who was following him.So the God appeared and told him that God gives shelter to those who remember HIM whole heartedly.So have faith on HIM THE ALMIGHTY GOD and success is gran teed if you work hard to achieve you goal.Now I again stress that ,MAHNET KARO AZIZO MAHENAT SE KAAM HOGA .KAHETE HAIN JISE WAQT AA KAR GULAM HOGA.Amity students out shined in all walks of life and it is the hard work of students and staff and teachers.I returned from the function with happy note.

Another loss on dated 16 th April 2010

2010-04-15T12:51:00.000-07:00

As I was struggling to know how the life after 70 to be.? I have been counting the losses I was shocked to hear the sad news that chander anand who met with a fatal accident a few days ago succumbed to the injuries and breathed his lost at 1 pm today.This is a painful when I count the old memories and think how jolly he was.Any way I am in tears and the whole day was spent in tears which I cannot show.We all pray to God that all the family members may get enough courage to bear this unbearable loss.May THE GOD give this pious soul a place in HIS Devinne feet.

LIC Claim

2010-04-13T12:11:00.000-07:00

As I attended the bank to just to inquire about that whether my LIC claim has been credited in my wife s a/c but shocked to know that the signatures on the cheque of LIC signatory are not on record and the bank at Meerut will reply and then there are chances that the amount will be credited .Still the money lost in ATMS is not recovered .I am waiting that some thing good may turn up. God help me.

Happy moments

2010-04-03T10:33:00.000-07:00

After hectic efforts I got the Lic claim and the house First floor has been put on rent and the process of registration is on.Similarly Sarita Vihar has been vacated and got the keys.But still uneasy lies till the money lost through ATM card is recovered or the person who has done is traced through footage is revealed.

I have uploaded the above images just to show that sometimes there are happy moments and sometimes just the reverse,but as the time passes away God is always with the rightful and sincere persons.Regarding some petty losses one is temporarily shaken but in the end God always gives courage to the persons who is right.Similarly I have noticed that the person who has taken my ATM but due to his guilt feeling he never comes to our house because his soul must have jolted him.So it is a good testament that one should remain poise in one's thoughts and do the rightful things in one's life.

Pakistani Jaurnalist has written some detailed analysis about Ambanis

2010-03-28T12:52:00.001-07:00

Dear all,Whats the world thinks about us...INDIANS!!!
Written by a Pakistani journalist about India [MUST READ]

Capital suggestion
By Dr Farrukh Saleem

Here's what is happening in India:

The two Ambani brothers can buy 100 percent of every company listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) and would still be left with $30 billion to spare. The four richest Indians can buy up all goods and services produced over a year by 169 million Pakistanis and still be left with $60 billion to spare. The four richest Indians are now richer than the forty richest Chinese.

In November, Bombay Stock Exchange's benchmark Sensex flirted with 20,000 points. As a consequence, Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries became a $100 billion company (the entire KSE is capitalized at $65 billion). Mukesh owns 48 percent of Reliance.

In November, comes Neeta's birthday. Neeta turned forty-four three weeks ago. Look what she got from her husband as her birthday present:
A sixty-million dollar jet with a custom fitted master bedroom, bathroom with mood lighting, a sky bar, entertainment cabins, satellite television, wireless communication and a separate cabin with game consoles. Neeta is Mukesh Ambani's wife, and Mukesh is not India 's richest but the second richest.

Mukesh is now building his new home, Residence Antillia (after a mythical, phantom island somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean ). At a cost of $1 billion this would be the most expensive home on the face of the planet.. At 173 meters tall Mukesh's new family residence, for a family of six, will be the equivalent of a 60-storeyed building. The first six floors are reserved for parking. The seventh floor is for car servicing and maintenance. The eighth floor houses a mini-theatre. Then there's a health club, a gym and a swimming pool. Two floors are reserved for Ambani family's guests. Four floors above the guest floors are family floors all with a superb view of the Arabian Sea
On top of everything are three helipads. A staff of 600 is expected to care for the family and their family home.

In 2004, India became the 3rd most attractive foreign direct investment destination. Pakistan wasn't even in the top 25 countries.
In 2004, the United Nations, the representative body of 192 sovereign member states, had requested the Election Commission of India to assist the UN in the holding elections in Al Jumhuriyah al Iraqiyah and Dowlat-e Eslami-ye Afghanestan. Why the Election Commission of India and not the Election Commission of Pakistan? After all, Islamabad is closer to Kabul than is Delhi .

Imagine, 12 percent of all American scientists are of Indian origin; 38 percent of doctors in America are Indian; 36 percent of NASA scientists are Indians; 34 percent of Microsoft employees are Indians; and 28 percent of IBM employees are Indians.

For the record: Sabeer Bhatia created and founded Hotmail. Sun Microsystems was founded by Vinod Khosla. The Intel Pentium processor, that runs 90 percent of all computers, was fathered by Vinod Dham. Rajiv Gupta co-invented Hewlett Packard's E-speak project. Four out often Silicon Valley start-ups are run by Indians. Bollywood produces 800 movies per year and six Indian ladies have won Miss Universe/Miss World titles over the past 10 years.

For the record: Azim Premji, the richest Muslim entrepreneur on the face of the planet, was born in Bombay and now lives in Bangalore.India now has more than three dozen billionaires; Pakistan has none (not a single dollar billionaire) .

The other amazing aspect is the rapid pace at which India is creating wealth. In 2002, Dhirubhai Ambani, Mukesh and Anil Ambani's father, left his two sons a fortune worth $2.8 billion. In 2007, their combined wealth stood at $94 billion. On 29 October 2007, as a result of the stock market rally and the appreciation of the Indian rupee, Mukesh became the richest person in the world, with net worth climbing to US$63.2 billion (Bill Gates, the richest American, stands at around $56 billion).
Indians and Pakistanis have the same Y-chromosome haplogroup. We have the same genetic sequence and the same genetic marker (namely: M124).
We have the same DNA molecule, the same DNA sequence. Our culture, our traditions and our cuisine are all the same. We watch the same movies and sing the same songs. What is it that Indians have and we don't?

INDIANS ELECT THEIR LEADERS

And also to mention: They think of Construction of own nation, unlike nations who r just concerned with destruction of others...

Lost Atms debit card

2010-03-28T12:26:00.000-07:00

Today I have attended the police station saket and lodged the FIR regarding loss of my money through fraudulent use of my above card with heavy heart and I have left any thing on GOD .But I am not happy till my lost money is recovered.God only can help.

Another atm dabit card lost HDFC

2010-03-27T12:45:00.000-07:00

Counting on the loss in terms of money I found that my another debit card is with me but some body has emptied my saving account and loss is of Rs 13500/It is material loss but the fact remains that some body has given great shock as we have done so much for the person whom we doubt and he is missing and he is not able to face us.I am thinking again and again whether we should lodge a F I R to the police .But if the person is the same we are thinking then he along with his family will be ruined .But if we dont report to police we will remain in doubtas to who has done.But this has shaken our faith .We hope that report should be otherwise.Let us see what happens and what is written in our fate.?

Lost the atm and lic policy a great shock

2010-03-23T13:12:00.000-07:00

As I was pondering that how much I have lost in life as per our fault and also due to fault of others and that of technology the result is tension.From the beginning if I have to start that what I have lost it will be a great list and it is better to forget the past and try to be on safe gaurd at present and future.
Before partition in 1947 .....I lost our house in Kohat where I used to enjoy my child hood then I moved to Tobatek Singh town at Nanas place when partition took place and were kept hostage along with my mother and 4 sisters .Then moved to India in refugee camp in Patiala.At that time we thinking that we had lost our father and two elder brothers and after some time we got the news tha they were safe and we met at Agra after hectic efforts for the Reunion.In 1948 we lost our eldest sister who suffered a malarial fever .In these years I lost all the education and some of URDU langauge in pre partition time.Started again in some Hindi school at Agra from !948 and shifted To Delhi in !948-1949 Our father lost some money when his pocket was picked at Delhi Station .Used to learn and make cartons which became our family business.Lost so many happy ocassions and was much grieved when I lost my sister ,mother ,elder brother ,and father to whom I pay my heart felt Shrandajali.Some of the material loss is also pinching as recently I lost the Lic policy of Shashi which I remember that orignal bond was not returned by the LIC branch Meerut and I have to run for submitting the I bond on 16 th march 2010 I was shocked that Rs 25000/ have been withdrawn from my Debit Card of Standard chartered Bank Saket.New DELHI.I have given the complaint to the bank but they say that it will take 12 days to find out who has taken the money .The fact is this I have not used my ATM and The ATM is with me still and I keep it in my lock and key.I have not changed the pin also as yet.The result is tension and I am waiting and watching.I am also trying to forget one house which I have lost and the case is pending in High court .The strange thing in this case is that the person who made my signatures and sold it to some one are enjoying and even won the case in lower court after 13 years and now it is in appeal in High court since 3 years.So Now I am of the view that life is great struggle and it is not the bed of roses.One should depend on THE ALIGHTY and leave all our troubles to Him and HE is the only saviour and we we shall get peace .

Partitions Woes

2010-03-09T12:09:00.001-08:00

During partition of India we have seen so much crulities and those cruelities are difficult to erase from our minds.As I had talked to so many it was revealed that it was like a Har Ghar Ki Kahani.the brulities of those days loom large at the faces of the then public who migrated to India.Some have lost their beloved kith and kins .Some of those families who left some of their relatives in Pakistan remained in horrible condions and as the time passed on some were expired and there was no one to tell their slow deaths on account shocks of historical blunders of those days.Sanjha chula of Hindhus and Mulims became the thing of past and so many innocent people died.

Strange pain on the right hand of Shashi (my wife)

2010-02-07T09:33:00.000-08:00

Today when I was away just to offer our sharandjali on the 24 th death anniversary of our respected mother (Bhabhi as we usually call during our childhood )and on my return I found Shashi in tears and she was crying out of immence pain on the right hand near elbow.I immediately gave the warm bottle to her for hot massage and gave some pain killer medicine.This instance is being second time.she got relief .In the evennig again she felt shooting pain on the same spot.I again applied some pain relief ointment named VOLINI(Ranbaxy).Now I am in a fix what to do and what is the permanent cure ? No body knows even the doctors say that as this a long case of some sort of bone TB and callus formation is stopped and the fractured joint has been screwd by the help of plate.Doctors say that if we operate then there is less space near elbow the joint may become immobile and the movements will become difficult.The x ray shows that some of the screws have become loose.I am also suffering from pain because some bowl has erupted near neck and I am taking medicine and it will be cured very soon.

Remembering our respected mother on 24 th death anniversary

2010-02-07T09:02:00.000-08:00

Remembrances of my mother on the death anniversary ( 24 th Death anniversary)
On 7th february every year I along with my wife have made up routine to wke up in the morning and just take bath and sometimes she prepares prasad with her own hands and asks me to go to the temple to offer the same to THE GOD ALMIGHTY and we are disdributing some fruits and Halwa and puries to the poor people near temple.But as the time passes away and the life in Delhi is very fast we vare justt going to temple and offer prasad of fruits sweets milk and boondi Ladoo and burfi etc and some donation to the temple.On this we feel just our mother is just sitting next to us and guiding us from heaven.We have seen that that our mother was such a pious soul that she predicted her death and before death she took out all the jewllery and handed it over to our father that he should tkae care of the ornaments because tomorrow there would be great rush and that he might misplace the same.Such was our mother and we pay a tearful rememberences and pray to GOD that HE should give peace to the departed soul under HIS devine feet.This is our Sharandjali

Our Bauji "s 15 th death anniversary on 22 Jan 2010

2010-01-21T10:09:00.001-08:00

As I was sitting and remembering my beloved Father (Bauji ) who had left us to face this world and from that date he is with us in our hearts and his pious soul is always with us.We definitely know that he is resting under the Devine Feet Of The Almighty God and his blessings are with us.We deeply remember him our beloved Bauji every moment with our hearts and give a tearful Shrandjali on his 15 th death anniversary.We all pray to God that his soul may rest in peace

Condolences on the sad demise of Mr Sayal (Father of Mr Rajesh sayal ) our painful duty

As we woke up then the telephone came that our nearest relative expired at 8am on 8/11/09. and we hurriedly started and reached Shakti vihar so that we may attend the sanskar .The traffic from Saket to Pritampura was neck braking .Any way we thank our driver of car who had taken us to reach our destination.Resently we heard that Mr Sayal a senior citizen who tumbled down due to uneven road near his house and was operated upon for joint near his waist .As a bad luck would have it on the same day he was to attend the marriage of his grand son and he was supposed to attend the same in banquet hall near Rohini.His all the three sons were there when this accident happened.He was admitted in RML hospital and immediately operated upon .After two days he was discharged with ok report.But after 3 days he felt some breathing trouble and was again admitted in the same hospital in the morning and expired at 8 am .Irony of fate was that his two sons left at this moment one to Jaipur and the other to Dabai.Messages were sent to Jaipur and Dabai .One son from Jaipur reached in time and the other could not catch the back flight and it was now evening and the sanskar had to be performed before the sunset .So at 6 pm the funeral was performed by the youngest son .Mr Sayal was a social worker and known for his work for society in the locality and as such there were so many persons to pay their homage to this noble soul.I along with wife were returning from Punjabi Bagh to Saket but we had to wait for another hour but could not catch any three wheeler .All the scooters refused to come to south Delhi .So there was no alternative but to travel by DTC bus .At last one private bus stopped and I had to lift and support my wife to board the bus as there was no handle to catch on left side and unfortunitely her right hand was weak having an implated a shoulder metallic plate due to old surgical operation.Any way we were in the bus seated comfortably upto AIIMS medical stop.On the way this bus having a race with another bus so that to catch passengers risking the lives of passengers and bus driver himself.The ticket was Rs 15/ each and we had paid Rs 30/as the coductor was not having change we gave Rs 100/ note and hoping that he would return the balance automatically .I was astonished to note that he did't return the balance .At this time my wife said ,Bhaiya Mere sattar repya to Lotaa Do."The conductor made a very funny face and gave back the balance.Due to slow driving the journey From Punjabi Bagh to mrdcal took one and half hour.
Now from AIIMS Bus stop we crossed the road through Sub way to reach AIIMS .After crossing the subway we could note find any 3 wheeler and walked about 1 Km to reach another bus stop near the entry gate of AIIMS around flyover.We tried to stop any three wheeler for Saket but no Auto driver was willing to go to saket now the distance was too short and it was not a profit earning proposition for Auto drivers.There was no choice but to board the bus again .After waiting for sometime a Bus 501 route came and we were safely in the bus.After struggling on the road with empty stomach I was feeling headache and we were dropped at Khoka market stop.We crossed the road and were passing through the short cut .I was thinking why at all the senior citizens cross the road or rather step out of house to get hurt?As I was analysing this in my mind I stepped my foot on a track path but by mistake put my foot on the shadow of the step and just fell down with all the bag and my wife came running and two of my friends lifted me on my feet .Luckily I was saved from any injury .I was just bruised at my ankle.My inner voice was anticipating that lest any thing wrong may happen to me .All the way I was caring for this aspect of safety for me as well that
for my wife but on reaching so near to our house some thing happened.At this moment I remembered my Bauji who used to utter a Urdu poetry "" SAMAAN SO BARAS KA PAL KEE KHABBAR NAHI "" In our culture if we had attended the funeral and touched the dead body we have to take bath to make oueselves "' shudh "' and the clothes are changed .So after all the hurdles we were satisfied that we had done our duty as human being.We pray to GOD THE ALMIGHTY that the departed noble soul may rest in peace under HIS Devine FEET.

A TERRIBLE STORY OF PARTITION PERIOD OF 1947

2009-10-12T12:09:00.000-07:00

As I was walking with my old friend in the park the issue arose about the hardships the refugees faced in 1947 when the partition took place between India and Pakistan .the most sufferers were the people who migrated from the portion which is now termed as Pakistan .My friend told me that when the partition took place the people with majority community started looting the properties of minority people.These people included Muslims and Pathans.My friend narrated like this....."I along my two brothers were the residents of Rawalpindi nearby area .In those days the Hindu population used live in Ahatas as they used to feel that the Ahatas were safe for them as these ahatas were pucca structures and the other population were in kacha structures.As the trouble started the Pathans and others raided those ahatas and brutally killed the young and old alike with rifles katas or revolvers and knives The narrator told me that he along with his younger brothers hid themselves in a room or behind the trunks or other shelter deeming it to be safe.the Pathans and others started shooting with guns on the door and as bad luck would have it the bullet shot hit his mother at the chin and the whole face was blown off and it appeared that some pig was hanging on the meat shop.other bullet shots hit his father at two or three places on his body .as he came out of the hidden space he found his father just bleeding and he pointed out towards the mother and died on the spot.now the narrator ran from that place along with his brothers and entered in Cantonment military area.Seeing some children the military helped them and kept them in a room and asked them that they should bolt the room from inside .they remained there for three days and provided the meals etc.Then they asked them to go to camp .They started and found some miscreants on the way on the other side of the wall and on the way they noticed a mother of some young person about 25 years .they were asked that they should accept Islam .The mother told the pathans that if her son accepted then she would also convert .As they inquired from the son he refused then they shot him down and took the mother along with them and what happened afterwards no body knew.Any how the narrator reached Ambala be the Train which were being run for exchange of population between India and Pakistan The narrator was in tears when he was telling his story and hardships He lost his parents and all belonging in West Pakistan.The narrator was in tears while he was telling his sad story.So many people suffered and so many innocent lives were lost.

Old Memories of year 1950 to 1959 Regarding Bara Hindu Rao and get to gather in E block Saket

2009-10-11T09:04:00.000-07:00

As I have already narrated that my am recllecting some fond memories of past.All of asudden I was called by our Bharji ji to E Block saket for get to gather on the auspicious occasion of at home due to the marriage of Raju Our brothers son .we had a ttended this party .I dont know why we tend to go E block as imagine that these people give us great respect.I feel as if I am the part of my late brothers family and always I remember my eldest brother who is resting under the Devine Feet Of Almighty God .During the meeting the chapter of old memories started when we were children .as matter of chance the father of our daughter in law had been the reident of Bhara Hindu Rao and Pahari Dheeraj.There we started the talk of Westand cinema ,Filmistan and one of Halwai Madan Lal ,Hemraj building Jain temple and other narrow lanes .Mr Gupta told us there was the only place where children get the bycycles on rent as low as 4 annas per hour .there is Mulim and Hindu papulation is about 50 % evenly distributed although the name is Bara HinduRao I used to take bycycle on rent and used to peddle the same on Kabristan Chamelian Road which used be empty and is the best for learners with quite pleasing sound of bicycle bells.Then there was a Bangali Sweets shop oppsite the Filmistan cinema.All the stories of the past gave us great joy.Our Jijaji Kohli sabeb Deepak Kohli and family,Gulshan and vini and family my brother D V sethi and family ,Pawan Sethi and family Anu Gaurav and family Bubbu abd Papu and family and other near and dear ones enjoyed a lot.Main attraction was the humouous of Deepak kohli ( Bobby)and his jokes.We all thanked Namita s parents and her brother who had left no stone unturned to make this occasion a great success and all credit goes To Raju ,Namita and Krishana Sethi Bharjaiji for their hospitality .

TV Serial 12/24 Karol Bagh Dated 6/10/2009 and Pavitra Rishta ( 6/10 2009)

2009-10-06T11:38:00.000-07:00

As I was watching the serial 12 /24 Karol Bagh which depicts about Rajender Sethi family and about Bhalla family .Although by saying that all the story is a false and characters are fictitious this does not give right to any producer of serial to defame the community as a whole .The story is full of all the blackmailing tacticts and langauge of character Rajiv Bhalla as he threatened Simi ( name fictitious) that he would ruin the Sethi family by defaming etc the language used is a filthy one and is condemned .No producer has a right to defame a community or any sub caste In my opinion the screening of such bad taste serials which only high light the bad facts of society should be censored by the Information Ministry of Govt Of India.These serials are not helping the public but only spreading hatred .Similarly in Pavitra Rishta the so called IEE the mother of Manav the language used is very rude and in my opinion no mother in law will stoop so low as shown in the serial.These opinions are of my own and in no way bearing any malice to any body or firm or producer .It is my humble endeavour that positive points of society should be depicted

Today as senior Citizen Day ( 1/10/2009)

2009-10-01T08:44:00.000-07:00

As I was watching the national programme I noticed that the health programme regarding cancer was very much useful information.Doctor of Lok Nayak Hospital was giving some preventive steps as to how to safe gaurd against the deadly cancer.He advised to avoid tabaco and smoking cigaretes and chewing tabaco products.Due to this habit the millions of senior citizens are suffering from cancer .This cancer can be at any part of body like throat cancer ,chest or breast cancer,prostate cancer.More over the treatment of this decease is very very expencive.One of the caller asked the doctor that his both sons are living abroad and they cannot attend the senior citizen or old parents as the life is very hectic .the caller was adviced that he (caller ) should take shelter in some old homes and get the treatment from good hospital for which Govt has opened the old homes .It may be that their wards may come to see them at this hour of need.Cancer is such a desease that it aggrevates other deaseses like diabetese blood pressure other complications.But the fact remains that young people should look after their elderly parents so that the elderly parents can face the troublesome old age passage peacefully.Afterall those who are young today will become old and then they will also require the support of their children.All days of senior days are important and need support of their children and the Govt.
In this connection I remember one incident which is coming to my mind .Long back in year 1965 I happened to stay at Agra in the house of our uncle in Shahzadi Mandi Sadar Bazar Agra cantt.There I met one of our tenant who was working as Bank Manager.I remember that he was about 40 years old but did not marry.He was living with his mother who was about 80 years old and was widow.Her husband died when her son was just a small child .Any how she brought up her son and worked hard to give him the exellent education.She was suffering from cancer and bed ridden for enough period and her son used to carry her on his back to toilets and wash room etc.Seeing the condition of his mother he took a vow that he would not marry and would serve her mother till she survived .He told me that he turned down so many offers of marriage in those yester years . His true story brought myself into tears .Such was the dedication which inherits from our culture.Story of Sharwan Kumar in our religius books is also ture when son carried his blind mother and father on a religious trip and walked on difficult terrains carrying baghi on his shoulder.Such was the tradition and now the time has changed the children of modern society think to send the elderly parents to some old homes quite uncared and totally unsupportive environment.I am confused and pondering where we shall go what will happen to us at the fag end of our journey of lives.Still life is a struggle and we have to fight and win .

Helping some one for getting admission in DCE/

2009-09-30T12:13:00.000-07:00

As I was sitting in the market and by the way my friend told me that if I can help him to guide so that he can get his son admitted in DCE .I frankly told him that I can try through some of my old friend who has retired long time from Mech department.I tried to find his address and phone but whole time was wasted and we were failed to get his phone .Now the only alternative was to go to concelling .I told him that he should remember God three times and go for the interview.I told my friend that put your all efforts reach in time.He rushed to the interview place .There was scene that againt 8 vacancies 61 aspirants appeared but some of them left and there were only 14 left out which again 6 did not turn up and last eight were selected .My friend was in the seventh heaven of delight and he called me in the evening and thanked me for guiding and I was so overjoyed and distributed ladoos from my side although he tried to stop me but ultimately I was given chance to express my joy as if the friends son is like my own.I also got joy of different nature which comes from within.This joy is smilar to that which we get when we serve others from core of our heart.

Zee TV serials ( Jhansi Ki Rani)

2009-09-21T11:12:00.001-07:00

Recently we had a chance to view Zee TV serial Jhansi Ki Rani .In this serial the dramtised version is not correct .I have one objection in my mind that so much torture by the then British rulers should not be shown on screen like beating the Indian slaves in jail,pulling out nails.taking out eyes by thrushing red hot iron rods in the eyes was too much barberous .We no doubt respect Jhansi Ki Rani who actually ignited the feeling of independence in 1857 and we term that year as the first war of Independence.Now the issue is that how can the children see these scenes?.On the other day a child was asking me why at all this type of behavior was being shown by the British soldiers towards indians who just wanted the freedom for their motherland.
This may be historically true but shoing such scenes to kids and adults is not correct.Such scenes should be censored and can only be shown to adults.These are my personnal views and in no way against any Govt policy or any person or firm

Life at Saket ( Sept 2009)

2009-09-13T12:28:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I along with my wife attended the Kirya ceremony of our relative Late Sham Sunder Talwar at Naraina Sanatan Temple.The journey by car was very sternuous.It took us about 2 hours.This was due traffic jam and bad roads and due to metro construction ,We paid our sharandajali to the departed soul.While coming back the cylancer of our car broke down and today it was replaced.I have attended the Kirya ceremony of Late Prof. Sher singh and prayed to God that the departed suol may get peace onder the devine feet ALMIGHTY GOD.All the dignataries attended this meeting at Arya Samaj Lodhi Garden Among respected personalpties were Honble Chief Minister Deldhi Smt Sheila Dikshit,Pt Yonganand Shastriji speaker Of Delhi Assembly and Arya samaj samamjis .As he has worked hard for upliftment of arya samaj.Professor Sher singh was a freedom fighter and worked in congress for decades.He was a ex defence minister of state in central Government of India.As such I also paid shrandajali to the departed soul on behalf of residents of M block saket as he was the resident of our Mblock a few days prior to his death

Regarding collaps of Metro flyover in Delhi(In year 2009 )

2009-09-08T10:53:00.000-07:00

As I have mentioned earlier that Engineers should adhere to the rules and regulations and specifications .Why in foreign countries the buildings ,bridges and flyover and all the structures dont collapse ? the reason is not far to seek.When the plans of civil structures are santioned ther are different departments which look all the aspects whether the structure in question is technically safe and no projects is sanctioned unless there is quality control laboratory which checks the quality of the materials used during constructions.India has the history of the best civil engineers in the world .Once former prime minister Pt Jawahar Lal Nehru had said that the engineers are pillars of our nation.But such lapses and structures giving way no doubt bring a bad name to the nation.I know so many young engineers who provide structural designs on line and send the same to all countries in the world.By every failure so many lives are lost apart from damages.So it is my apeal to the engineers that they should work for the nation like famous engineer like Engineer VISHASWARIA who was given the honour of BHARAT RATAN.

ADDITIONS OF SOME MEMORIES IN CHAPTER AFTER PARTITION DURING 1948 TO 1954

2009-08-15T11:07:00.000-07:00

While going back to the memories of year after partition in years 1948 to 1954 when we had put up at Ambala ( tehsil Shahbad Markanda ] in Sayeeda Wali Kothi I remember that it was written on the gate ,"" AAGAHA KI APNI MOAT SE KOI BASHER NAHI SAAMAN SO BARS KA PAL KI KBABAR NAHI"ITS a urdu SHER meaning there by that it may be noted that a man cannot do any thing againt death and hundrd of years efforts earnings in shape of money or goods and property can be washed away in a twinkling of an eye .Here in those days we were just on roads having no shelter of our own.We were thinking that it was enough and satisfying gesture that we were alive .We had a flourishing bussiness and house property in Kohat and TalaGang which we left there and never looked back

Rajats Marriage Dated 9th august 2009

2009-08-11T09:13:00.000-07:00

Finaly I attended the marriage celebrations at the City park hotel and I along with my daugter Anu and son in law gaurav just reavched when the marrige procession just reached the pandal .I was being called for Milani as uncle to uncle.We embraced each other enthusiatically and exchanged gifts.The marriage vanue was tastefully decorated and the food items were quite delicious.But I wanted to dance in the procession which I missed due to taffic jam .It is another way good that my wife got the chance and her performance was execellent .previosly I enjoyed and danced at the tune of DJ .I at this age was also performed on the dance floor.I dont know how this desire comes the these memories find deep feeling of pleasure.We came from the marrige and Pheres and with Doli at about 3 am in the morning with satified frame of mind and with feeling that one good work has been achieved.In the frequent electric failures no doubt some times marred the show.I think this is due to no rain and hot weather.We were lucky that the electricity came at 3.30 am and we slept and have sound sleep.To day we were invited for some ceremonies of TILVETRE and we blessed the bride that she should be blessed with sons .The cople has left for Honey moon to Bankak and we are there to say best of journey.Some of the traditions are in practice in Punjabies and khatris are peculiar but they are enough to remeber our old culture.

Happy Birth Day wishes to Shashi Sethi(my Wife) on completing 60 years

2009-07-30T11:50:00.001-07:00

As I was always loosing memory due to age but I am thankful to God that He has helped me that I remembered to say Happy Birth Day wishes to Shashi( my wife) on her 60 th birth day and we enjoyed a lot and some snaps were taken and pastry's were distributed among those who happened to be present on this day .As our children are away at this ocassion they conveyed their good wishes on this day.We enjoyed the company of Amitabb (our daughters son ) who gave the idea of pastry's instead of cake as he said that in case of pastry we have not to cut the cake and it will be easier to distribute.This the Innocent gesture of a small child whose only 6 years old.It is a coincidence that the birth day of our nephew falls on this day and we have conveyed our good wishes to him at Canada through telephone .About 2 years back we were at Vancover and enjoyed the joyful birthday celebrations of Sashi and my nephew Asish Anand(Happy).At this point we remember the sweet memories when we were in Canada.

My experience of seeing the picture "" NEW YORK "" on 29 th June 2009 at Select City PVR SAKET NEW DELHI

2009-06-30T10:36:00.000-07:00

As Iwas sitting and doing some social work of my colony all of asudden some body told me to visit select city pvr saket nd see pictire NEW YORK.I along with my wife went to see the picture There was a great rush especially younger ones THe normal ticket casts Rs 370 and the next higher class casts even more.On seeing the picture that what ever is being shown is a reality but some of the Torture scenes are not meant for children just urinating on the face of suspected terroris

Ragging in educational institutions

2009-06-23T07:57:00.000-07:00

While referring to my earlier blog on this subject I am happy that Govt has taken steps to stop ragging .t has been taken steps like taking affidevits from the senior students that they will not indulge in ragging of the juniors.Some hard steps should also be taken to get rid of this menace once for all.The intoduction of juniors should be taken in the presence of the college authorities and parents to inculcate the confidence in the minds of parents and students so that parents may feel that their wards are in safe hands during their stay in the concerned college/or institution

Racial attacks on Indians

2009-06-05T10:17:00.000-07:00

I am again paind to see that 9 th or 10 th indian student was attacked when he was on his way to work .I apeal to the Indian Govt to lodge a strong protest to Australia and ask them to safe gaurd the Indians who are in Australia.In this pretext it is worth while to mention we treat the foreign students as our guests and take utmost safety,So the Australian Govenrment should also take early steps for the safety of Indians including Indian students in particular.

Racial attacks on Indian students in Australia

2009-06-03T11:10:00.000-07:00

I have read from news on TV and was pained to note that Indian students who have gone to Australia just to get higher education are being subjected to racial attacks.This incident indicate that the career of thousands of Indian students is at stake.Although our Govt is protesting against such attacks but in my opinnion these protests are falling on deaf ears on the Austalian Govt .On the other hand our Indian Govt takes so much care of the foreign students and treat them as our honoured guests .In a similar manner the Australian Govt should reciprocate and take suitable measures for the safety of Indian students and initiate strong measures to curb such attacks in future .Indian Govt should also lodge strong prostests.In the past also such incidents happened but remained in the history resulting in repetitions.

Ragging in educational institutions

2009-06-01T12:22:00.000-07:00

I was pained when I read that a student died on account of ragging in college.As a matter of fact that ragging in any form is banned by law but even then the institutions fail to imforce laws in their respective institutions.In my opionion that the institutions which are approved by UGC should issue strict instructions that if there is a ragging in their institution then in that case the financial aid would be stopped and the institution will be accountable in this respect.THe institutions can play the decisive roll to stop the ragging and so many lives of innocent students can be saved.Earlier I have mentioned that during my admission in the college I along with about 120 students were ragged and were made to march naked when the juniors and seniors fight began and luckily the seniors ran away from the site and we all escaped unheart.I had also learnt in those years that previous batch were ragged and one of the student was orderd to jump a big drain and that student fell into that drain and died.Simply crying that the ragging is banned and the students should shun this bad habit will not serve any purpose.If there is stict management of the college only then the menice of ragging can be stopped.Even college authorities can be made to pay to the parents as it was the fault of college authorities which could not enforce the ban on ragging due which the aaccident occured.Moreover during no body should be touched by senior student nor third degree oppressive punishments be given to junior student.Some malpractices are there in in colleges which cannot be expressed ans all these bad examples cast a slur on so called civilized soceity.Sometimes the trauma of ragging lasts for ever to the victom due to stern ragging .All those endulged in illegal ragging should be punished by the college and legal authorities suitably.I had suggested that the college authorities should hold intoduction seminar of the junior students to the seniors and hold community meeting aand the parents of the juniors should also be allowed to attned such introductory seminars.Such seminars will definately enthuse confidence in the junior students an d parents will also think that their wards are in safe hands of college authorities.These are my own suggestions and are not directed to any one or institution whatsoever

Rajus ring ceremoney dated 10/5/2009

2009-05-11T09:49:00.000-07:00

As I was thinking what is fate and when some good things happen and suddenly the stars start favouring luck of a person
I was informed that the marriage of my brothers son has been fixed and all of us have to attend the ring ceremony of Raju (RAJAT)( my elder brothers son).As I have mentioned earlier that my eldest brother met with a fatal accident .He had a great vision for his son but unfortunately could not see the happiness.Our family members gathered at Royal Palace Banquet Hall at 1 sant Kirpal sing marg Maurice nagar near Daulat Ram college New Delhi .I met all the relatives and all the memories were refreshed .The parents of the girl are down to earth gentle persons.Being Guptas has got no barrier in setting relation ships Some times out of castes marriages are more successful than within in own castes .Any way we wish Bharjaiji and family a very happy life as they have seen so much sufferings due untimely death of our eldest brother.We came back to saket at 11pm the same day with satisfied frame of mind At the end we send our compliments from our Sethi family and from Gaurav Misra ,Anu Misra, and from kids SONI and ASHI

Art of living programme at Amity Int School saket new Delhi( SouthDelhi ) dated 26/04/2009

2009-04-26T13:27:00.000-07:00

Today I have attended attended the funneral of my friends wife who died of liver failure.The sad story is that about 2 and half year back her husband died due to road accident .After attending the funneral I kept some time mum and was thinking that why God sometimes take away the pius souls?In the end every of funeral ceremony body was saying that this Yatra is called the ANTIM YATRA.If this Is ANTIM YATRA THEN WHY we believe that Soul just changes from one body to another and they say that Soul is UJAR AND AMAR.It is written in Bhagvath Gita that jeev Ko to Karam Karne Ka Adhikar Hai and man should not think of result thereof.Any way I returned home thinking that mysterious are the ways of God and no body can solve this puzzel.
In the evening I attended the seminar of Art of Living held at Amity INt School School.People young and old throng from far near areas.The bhajans were very nice and I felt that I should attend this but when I inquired from the counter what I have to pay for registraion I was informed that I have to pay Rs 1500/ as the registration money for one weeks training.I was thinking why the seminar is being organised in air condioned hall of Palm Green Hotel and why not in open air park as the time remembering God is in the morning and naturally this will definitely cost less.The lovely sangs were spontanious and I found people were dancing youn and old alike weth piou feeling and I was also feeling to dance to the tune of Bhajan but any how felt shy and returned to my colony with all mixed thoughts and brought the literature for study and to find the path of peace.In the meeting I met Shri Vijay Jolly the former MLA south Delhi and thanked him that he had sanctioned some development in Mblock Saket and due his initiative the colony road has become wide and the boundry wall of block saket has been completed .I also thanked him for this common interest matter for the benefit residents and senior citizens in particular.

They say that life after retirement becomes easy but some times it is just the reverse.Ever since I started living in my own house I could not enjoy my life to the fullest .I just get up at 7 am rush to fetch milk from milk booth and then rush for fruits and vegetables and due to great rush on roads I prefer to walk and I just have to walk upto 5 days a minimum and some times 10 times upto the market for one or the other reasons.At the end of the day I find that I have not done any useful work and no body is bothered that senior citizens are becoming a frustated lot always seemingly tense.The roads are narrow and even the roads being encroached by the residents and outsiders of colony and no body can dare to ask the encrachers to follow rules.Residents and even neighbourers feel shy to talk their common problems .My son and daughet in law live in Californea USA and are happy along with his family.Some times we talk on Skype but physical presence is not there so is our agony that we cannot express.Some times our Association people do meet in Saket park but there also we cannot find any peace.So many times we get news that such and such person has been crically ill and operated upon either heart related problem and other medical related problems.But seldom people rush to the hospital to inquire about his or her health as life has been so busy.I could not meet my sister who lived in Maya Puri except on Rakhi festival .We remenmber when we were living at meerut /Allahabad we managed to visit our relations so many times.But after retirement lethargy has crept in and we dont feel going to visit our near relatives owing to fact that distances and also if you go the place and the other end you find that there is no body at house then you can very well imagine the situation
So the life is continuing and we feel that God has been kind enough having
bestowed on us all the blessings.

Hellicopter shell mounted on scooter

2009-04-23T11:40:00.000-07:00

Again referring to the proposed (in dream) hollicopter shell fitted on the scooter may have other advantages that being in a round shape and strong plasiic bady will definately not hurt the occupant if hit in any direction as the occopant remains fastened by means of success.The project may have to be taken up with back up engineering skilland moderen gadgets will be fitted in the right place .Supposing this shell falls in the ditch then it will roll and there will be shock absorbers to save it from shocks and damages from behind and front and from top to bottom .SThis can be made earth quake proof , shock proof ,and tunami proof.Somany IITian s and scientists may ponder on this idea.This scooter may even be sent in the space and can work as robort and investigations can be made about its feasibility.If any how this idea is of any use then it will be just a dream come true.

Manufacturing and installing the helicopter shell on the two wheeler scooter

2009-04-12T13:31:00.000-07:00

Once I dreamt that my late brother told me that if he was successful to fit the Helicopter shell fitted on the chassis of two wheeler chasis then it will be safest mode which will be safe on the road .There will be no effect of accident on the passenger if the belt is used by the occupant .There will be certain holes in the body of shell for air supply and it can roll over but life will be saved .My brother used to use scooter and he was in the process of designing such a scooter but alas he died while he was on his way to Faridabad on the same very scooterin 1993 at Ajronda more that too when he was hit by another scooter coming from the front of his scooter on the wrong side .This shows that he any got some indications that scooter was risky and and some modications might be made but he could not succeed in his venture .He was of the opinion that two wheelrs were risky because it is on two wheels and the balance is not correct technically.Ever since his death the idea haunts me that some thing should be done in this regard so that the scooterist may be saved from accidents.By writing this blog I pay a shrandjali to my elder brother who might be resting under the devine feet of THE Almighty God.

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

2009-04-05T12:16:00.000-07:00

Ashitabh 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 .Ashitabh 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.

Costly Education

2009-04-01T11:35:00.000-07:00

When I hear that the education has become so costly it comes to my mind how the poor persons can afford ?.India claims that they intend to provide free education to the masses and they promise that quality education will be provided.After lapse of 62 years after independence even primary education has not been provided so far to all citizens.All the projects remain on paper and we could not make the masses literate.On govt side in Schools there is always shortage of teachers and the schools have not all the fascilities and the labs not well equiped.On the other hand the private schools go on increasing their fee at tremendous rates which become beyond the reach of comman man.Now education has also become the commercial and spreading education has not remained as Vidya DAN . Tech/medical/MBA?aviation courses they say costs about 6 to 20 lakhs.Who can afford all these costs ? The parents feel all the difficulties and when the children get all these degrees and then if they dont get jobs then the tension mounts on both the parents and children .The unemployment causes so much crimes like thefts and robberies and lootings we also hear news that some of unemployed persons committed suicides.Now the question is how to take the redressal measures .The answer to my opinion is to create the job opportunities within India so that no educated youth should remain unemployed.India should should give more funds to education and side by side increase job opportunities in India and so that no youth may be tempted to seek jobs in other cuontries .This move will definitely improve the present situation .There is no doubt that Indians are hard working and Indians are far better and the brain drain should also be checked.Govt should avoid the superflous expenditures and economy should be the main aim of the Govt.In my previous chapter I requested that the senior citizens should be given retirement allowance to survive and lead dignified lives and Govt should not think that these gems of nation have lost their sheen and as such useless lot..When our Govt is not able to provide employment to the youths then how the Govt will take care of retired persons?.This a big question the Govt will have to decide sooner the better.Histoery tells that so many great nations have been destroyed due to corruptions and so the Govt should have honest persons in public life as well as political and Govt level.If all such measures are taken I am sure that our India will be called Sone KI CHIRIA again and will lead the whole world.

Senior Citizens and thier security and health insurance

2009-03-25T12:13:00.000-07:00

Senior citizens are generally facing the difficulties as under.
Health
As matter of fact senior citizens become weak and hope that at the old age their children will help out so that they can pass this difficult stage peace fully and gracefully.But I am not sure how many are lucky who have sons like Lord Ram ,and brothers like Laxman ,Bharat ,and Shatrughan etc and similarly wives like Sita and Urmila etc .Even King Dasrath had to keep promice which he made with Kakayee and although he was not interested but the fate was great and Rama obeyed the orders of his father and spent about 14 years in Banvas.During that banvas period King Dasrath died in in pain and could not see his son Lord Ram .All this teaches the Maryad rather duties regarding father ,son ,brothers ,sons and mothers and all the pious relations enshrined in our religious books.But these are the happenings of Satyug.
When I sit in park and some general discussions the elderly people seem to be a frustated lot they are generally not happy in this Kalyug when their dear children go to work and children to school they remain all alone just to gaurd the house and the house hold for which they have spent the whole life.The fear remains in their mind for themselves and their children .As their sons or children leave the house the tension prevails if they will return safe and sound due to heavy traffic on the roads and the crimals are also targeting the easy preys while when they return from the work places.The cases of this nature and looting and crime are increasing every day .Senior citizens are also themselves become easy prey while all alone in their homes.Their is some incidents of domestic violence either by domestic helps or by the members of their own family members.In metro cities like Delhi and around areas these are common incidents.In some cases their own leave them helpless and shelter less .So security of senior citizens should be prime concern of the Govt.Simply by giving some benefits just like Separate ques in banks or at railway counters or bus stops or standing in separate ques at Delhi Jal Board water bills counters or BSES etc will not solve these problems.When I visited Canada I found that the senior citizens are getting free medical and other fascilities and more over allowance sufficient to survive in a dignified manner .In my opinion now the time has come that Govt should take the full responsibilty as the senior citizens are the pride of any nation and they should be given respect and regards which they have earned by serving the nation.The general public and in schools in moral science this type of morals should be taught.At present when we see an old person who is trying to cross the road I found very few persons help them .Some old homes should be made by the Govt and also be controlled by the Govt as it should be duty of Govt In my opinion a separate ministry should be formed to rehabilate the senior citizens and this should not be left at the hands some of the NGOs alone.Govt can also get some help from senior citizens for which they deem to be of any use and service.Although as it appears to be a distant dream but if there is will of Govt then a day is not far when we say that in our India all senior citizens and ladies will live in fearless and free environment which will be equql to Ram Rajya.The govt servants or others should strive to make such moves as they also cant escape from retiring from active service and all the problems will also to be tackled by them when they retire.Even laws can be framed and lagislations can be made .But it is very clear that early actions in this regard will also help those are in Govt to avct in larger interst of public and senior citizens in particular.

Senior citizens' Association Saket New Delhi election on 15/3 /2009 at Arya Samaj Mandir saket

2009-03-14T12:45:00.000-07:00

At the insistence oF senior citizen I agreed to stand for the post of General Secretary and tried to convace the residents to vote and support for me At the tea party so many problems were put fourth and I and I promised to fulfill the aspirations of the senior citizens and I hope that I shall try to be helpful and do my duties sincerly .I am lucky that Sh N P Therajaji if elected president will give his full support .Many speakers praised Mr Thareja and informed me that he is such a social worker that what ever he earns spend 90 percent to the needy poor people and remaining 10 percent for the upkeep of the park.I wish him all the success so that I may get previlege to work with him so GOD help me.

Ragging in colleges by senior students towards Junior students in Ht dated 10/3/2009

2009-03-11T11:03:00.000-07:00

I was shocked to read the shocking news in which a medical student was ragged or tortured by senior students in one of mmedical college in Himmachal Pradesh with the result that junior student died. Really it is shame on society and the college authorities who cannot stop ragging. I mentioned in my earlier blog when I got admission in Roorkee Engineering college when a mass ragging was organised by the seniors at about mid night and all the freshers were lined quite naked and ordered to quick march on canal service road. Some of the seniors were injured during scuffles. This was a mass ragging and freshers were out numbered, so the then authorities put forth a civilised method of ragging. Every fresher was called on the stage and would tell his or her name, the place from where he is hailing and previous college and hobbies etc and all the authorities then get the introduction of the freshers and seniors were helpful to the needy students later on. I think this is better way of introduction of the fresh students. The law authorities and the Govt should make the college authorities accountable on this issue.

HT news that Hindus families are forced to leave the NWFP Pakistan by Talebansand fundementlists forces dated 9/3/2009

2009-03-09T12:16:00.000-07:00

Today the headings published in HT news paper that so many Hindu famlies have been forced to leave NWFP Pakistan and crossed over to India.They have narrated the horrible stories and they were being pressed to leave that place where their forefathers lived for generations to genrations.They were of the opnion that their forefathers did a mitake and took a decision to stay back during partition of India and Pakistan.They told the reporters that there is no longer any government and the law ful government cannot take any action.In my earlier blog already mentioned that in there culture the women have no value and they are not allowed to go to schooland they are supposed to wear burqa and remain in house.Only the mail children are supposed to go to school.My mother when used to carry tiffen for my fathe to the shop she also used to have long jhund (the chuni should cover all the face)I have also mentioned that the local phathans from the uotskirts of Kohat used to invade the houses of hindus with the firearms and some times they used to set the houses of Hindus on fire.I also remembered that the local hindus used to gaurd their houses at night lest they might not be harmed.Now I am astonishing that after about 61 years the sitiation is the same and we feel lucky that our forefathers took a right step about 61 years back and history has proved that our forefathers had a great vision and they had not shifted we also have been repenting as these unlucky Hindus are repenting at the wrongful decisions now and they have to left their homes empty hands or selling their properies at a throw away prices or leaving these properties just save their lives and that of their children .
I also over heard in those days that our tauji was not interested to leave during partition as his Hikmat was booming and he was bosting that he had so many fiends and was of the firm opionion that they would not ditch him (Tauji).My father told him that that he along with family children wuold not be safe and any how my TAYAJI agreed to leave .In the end I pray to GOD that the people of that rigion should live peacefully and should learn the piou theary of live and let live

Again Terror and terrorists now at cricket team at Lahor at Gadaffi stadium on 3rd March 2009

2009-03-03T07:40:00.001-08:00

Again while I opened the screen of TV and found that a terrorist attacked on Srilanka cricket team in Pakistan .this attack has got the same modus operandi as that of Mumbai attack last year on 26 th Nov 2009.The results are the same that innocent people are wounded or killed.I am shocked and only pray to GOD or Allah to give these misguided persons a good sense Humanity is to be saved at all costs.All the nations should ponder on this issue of Terrorism and take bold steps so that these happennigs may not repeat.I am of the opinion that nations progess when there is peace and only peace.

A happy marriage party of My brother"s Son (Pawan Sethi) on 27 Feb 2009

2009-02-27T13:12:00.000-08:00

I have attended the marriage party of Micky (Pawan Sethi) to night and enjoyed a lot >At this party I met so many old acquintances and the shared the old memories.On seeing some of old relatives I was happy and see some of old persons who used to be gleeming with luster and dashing in their youth period and now the aging effect has snatched all the glory.I was pained to see people suffer so much.I forget to think that I have also been old enough and some old relatives could not recognise me and this I now believe that life goes on and mysterious are the ways of GOD.Any how I enjoyed the marriage so much and I believe and hope that my elder brother is lucky to have so beutiful and good girl as his daughter in law.She is beutiful and is a perfect match with Micky (PAWAN SETHI)We wish them a happy married life in future.ONe of the relatives have also told his old incident when his daughter who se leg broken in two peices and he got her leg was set right by Dr Dubey of Medical college of Meerut.As soon as he narrated the srory I recllected the painful accident of my son with truck near Sahibad.I was also lucky that I got Dr Garg of Meerut who fitted the rod in his right leg and after 3 years his rod wastaken out after proper hearig and effrts .Now he is residing at California( U S A )I returned back to Delhi after giving good wishes to all of the relatives

Visit to Sankulp Utsav at PRAGATI MAIDAN ON 21 st FEB. 2009

2009-02-21T08:18:00.000-08:00

I along with one of my friend visited Sankulp Utsav at Pragati maidan .The journey from saket was a tedious one.We took a bus to Khanpur busstop from there we boarded the bus number 419 .this bus was comfortable.But we bymistake occupied ladies seat.Anyway we being senior citizen remained on those seats.It was difficult to take bus journy by bus when there was no reservation of seats for older people.We got down at Purana Qila bus stop and walked down to the subway about 1 Km .So any how we were determind to visit and so we have conqured all the difficulties.There was so much rush and we have to stamped the lunch coupen by standing in queThe lunch packet was not at all tasty having two chapaties some ,rice pickle and at the top of it a colp gulab jamun as a sweet dish.I have heard one person saying that the lunch packet costed about Rs 125/each We had a cup of coffee which contained too much sugar.We could see only two halls and collected some brochers and and at stalls the departments were seen whiling their time and as if they have been compelled to do this duty.No block wise developments were being displayed.Any how the show was being organised half heartedly.The people of Delhi are very much busy and showed no interest in these programmes.RWAS people also knew that these programmes are not organised properly so some of RWAS not attended due to transport fascilities.This I noticed that when I approached the RWA people and they rather refused.In my opinon the RWAS should be given some financial powers to organise some developments and should be manned by technical people.There should be some renumerations to RWAS for supervising the govt projects.The RWAS are working honourary jobs and so they take no intrest and think it to be a thankless job.Sankalp of keeping Delhi clean will be a reality if the RWAS should be given powers and some office space in respective blocks or calonies.Senior citizens are living a horrible lives as the the children have left them alone and at this juncture the Government should adopt them and take a full care of senior citizens as is done in other countries accross the world.In some countries the senior citizens are being given the allowance so that the elderly people can live dignified lives.So while coming back from Pragiti Maidan we came back standing in the bus utterly disgusted.So this was our journey to SANKALP UTSAV sponsored by Delhi State.Previously I attended the Bhagidari workshops and I found those workshops quite attractive and direct contact with departments definitely was a good approach.

Regarding news item of vacating the MCD ( MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF DELHI)"S Town Hall and converting it as National Hertage building at Delhi

2009-02-11T09:56:00.000-08:00

Recently I have seen the news item that MCD office at town hall will be vacated and the whole building shall be on the map of National Heritage building and this has been approved in the standing committee.This building is of historical importance no doubt and had been remained the head office and being used judiciously at present and previously also since decades.It is being harped on the highest pitch of voice that MCD is short of funds and is continuosly under pressure during this recession period.If town hall building is handed over to Archiology Department and the new building is constructed to house the MCD then there will be a huge loss to the Govt as well as it will be a share loss of public money who are paying the property taxes to MCD .In my opinion the building should not be closed merely on the ground that it has got historical value as heritage building.Instead MCD should construct diffrent offices in all the disrict centres of Delhi to improve its efficency to maintain Delhi as the cleaner Delhi . I have so much appreciation for Bhagidari meetings where the represntatives of registered RWAS sit together and try raise the common problems and how these can be solved and remedial measures are assured by so many departments but the implements of the assurances need to monitored by the Govt .More over the cocerned departments should be strictly orderd by the Govt to such Bhagidari meetings at deputy commissioner level and non attendance should find suitable place in the crs of the govt official.Only strict rules and their adherence can bear fruits of the Bhagidari meetings.Delhi is facing acute problems of parking ,encroachments ,traffic jam ,shortage of public transports ,shortages of schools and admissions to even nursery classes.As a matter fact the govt should bring a legislation regarding RIGHT TO FREE EDUCATION TO ALL CITIZENS and no school should refuse admission to the deserving candidates/wards and there should be regulatory body to ensure its implimentation.
I have attended so many Bhagidari meetings and stressed that problems of M BLOCK SAKET NEW DELHI-110017.be solved and raised the issue again but non have been solved.Main problems are .;; 1-Construction of boundry wall of Nallah facing MBlock SAKET.It is to be noted that the boundry wall fell during heavy rains last year and it is dangerous because any vehicle can fall resulting in serious accidents.The bed of Nallah is Kachha which breads mosquitos and insects.All the filth is accumulating giving bad smell.There is traffic jam and residents are facing hardships and Amity School Saket has not providing any parking to its vehicles resulting that during parents teachers meeting the vehles enter in MBlock colony even in lanes and sometimes in back lanes As per rule the Amity shpuld constuct the under ground parking so that residents can heaave a sigh of relief.Near Mblock saket there is another Govt school having a vast ground and it should also construct under Ground parking.There is a peculiar problem that this school has its gate inside Mblock and LBlock colony road and there is great rush and traffic at the time openning and closing of school.I am writing all these problems on behalf ans as president of MBLOCK NE SAKET CULTURAL AND NIWASI WELFARE ASSOCIATION AND AS BHAGIDAR OF DELHI TEAM SPONCERD BY HONB"LE CHIEF MINISTER DELHI

Remembrances of my mother on the death anniversary ( 23 rd Death anniversary)

2009-02-06T07:52:00.000-08:00

On 7th february every year I along with my wife have made up routine to wke up in the morning and just take bath and sometimes she prepares prasad with her own hands and asks me to go to the temple to offer the same to THE GOD ALMIGHTY and we are disdributing some fruits and Halwa and puries to the poor people near temple.But as the time passes away and the life in Delhi is very fast we vare justt going to temple and offer prasad of fruits sweets milk and boondi Ladoo and burfi etc and some donation to the temple.On this we feel just our mother is just sitting next to us and guiding us from heaven.We have seen that that our mother was such a pious soul that she predicted her death and before death she took out all the jewllery and handed it over to our father that he should tkae care of the ornaments because tomorrow there would be great rush and that he might misplace the same.Such was our mother and we pay a tearful rememberences and pray to GOD that HE should give peace to the departed soul under HIS devine feet.This is our Sharandjali

Health Fundas of Our respected Bauji and his legacy

2009-02-04T07:40:00.001-08:00

Recently I along with my wife attended the gettogether of Senior citizens in Saket Park in Dblock where we met so many people of our age group and we enjoyed a lot.so many members narrated their experiences of their lives.I met a lady who told us that she had a fracture in her shoulders and the elopathy medcines when she took some how reacted and she was ellergic and she became numb on taking that medicine
My wife has a history of bone TB since when she was one and half year old.It is reported that one bowl appeared and it used to burst.She was treated by Dr Bakru of Jhansi and then Dr Sen of Sen Nursing Home Darya Ganj New Delhi.Years after years had elapsed nothing happened but as bad luck would have it she fell from two wheeler scooter as she was sitting on pillion seat and a dog ran after us and the she lost balance and fell on the right side and her hand broke .As I was lifting her I found that her hand bone had been broken between shoulder and elbow.Any how I took her to the Doctor at Meerut .The Doctor could not set it right and only he applied the plaster for three months but after seeing the X ray it was noticed that bone was not healed up.We then rushed to another Doctor who then fitted a plat having 9 screws.We thaked the Doctor .Later on she again slipped and we had to reunite the plate with 9 screws now again after lapse 3 years some screws have been broken and the hand is being on the support of 3 screws .Now again consulted the specialist who advised us that the 3rd surgery is not possible as no calcium is being formed.He has advised to take care and to use support to avoid any jerk etc.He advised to use the support as the portion of bone near elbow is very less.As we told this storey to that lady with fractured shoulder she also narrated the pathetic condition of her shoulder.Regarding bones she told us that we should follow the following formula daily
Take 3 pieces of dried ANGEER.3 pieces of almond,and 3 pieces of Akhrot and pour a glass of water and remain it for a night and drink the water remaining drey fruits should be taken with a cup of warm milk.This formula will help us in strengthnig of bones and calcium building.We are using this formula and we have noticed some improvement.During the discussion I also narrated some of the health fundas as told by my respected Bauji which are dedicted to our late Bauji on his 14 th death anniversary in his remeberences as under;

Kader e Sahet Mariz Se Poocho
Sahet Hazar Niamat Hai

1 Jahan tak chalta ho Kam Gaza (diet) se
Bachna Chahaye Dava Se
Jo mahede ho granni
To chak le saunf ya adrak ka paani
Agar Knoon bane kam aur balgam zaida
To kha gajar , chane aur shaljam zaida
Jo chaiye badhazami se too afaka
To kar le aek ya do waqt ka faka
Jo pachissh hai to too peach too is trehe too kas le
Mileke dood mein too neembu ka too rass le.
Jiggar ke bal par hai insaan jeeta agar zofe jiggar toh too khaa papita
Jiggar mein hai jo garmi to dahi kha
Aunto main hai khushki to Ghee Kha
Dhakaan ke mare hoin tere azlaat dheele
To foran garama garam dood too pee le'
Jo takat main ho kami mahsoos
To foran multani mishri kee dali choos
Zaida dimagi hai tera kam
To khaya kar shaid milakar badam
Agar ho dil ki kamzori ka ahsaas
To khaya kar murabba aunwla aur annanaas
Agar garmi ki ho shiddat zaida
To pee sharbat bajai aab taza
Agar dukhta hai gala nazle ke mare
To kar le namkeen paani ke grare.
Agar hai danto ke dard se vayakul
To aungli se masooran per namak mela ke taail mal
So long my bauji was alive he used to follow the above simple health guidance and he lived a happy and healthy life and died at the age of 93 years .We all still remember him and feel that he is guiding us .So we pray to God that he should be given a a divine blessings in heaven.

When I see the activities of terrorist on the screen and their live actions against humanity like killing the innocents just in the same manner as the human lives have no meaning in their faiths I feel pitty on them .I understand that it is a sort of illness which is being spread by giving injections of hatred towards one faith towards another and in name of Jehad (holy war)In old days it was taught in scools that one should be patriotic and respect the whole humanity without any ill will .Our forefathers used to tell us the piou vertues of great saints and Suffies.Why the teachings of the great social reformers and dharam gurus are not inspirings these terrorists who are bent upon to destroy the very existence of human race.I think that some positive remedial measures must be taken to eliminate this cancer which if not stopped shall bring a dooms day much earlier.Ihope that we will surely overcome all the terrorist and make the whole world a place to live in where all the human beings tread fearlessly.We should inculcate in the minds of our brothern the sence of live and let live.
