Life at Saket ( Sept 2009)

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 )

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

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

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.
