Sharandajli to our honorable former chief minister Shri Kalyan Singh ji.

I pay my tearful Sharandali to our  respected Shri Kalyan Singh ji former Chief Minister of U P I remember that I came in contact with him in  1965 when I was posted as Assistant Engineer tube wells  at Atrauli and he used to come to Inspection House to help me to solve the problems of water reaching to fields of the villagers of that area.He was a dedicated social worker and honest and always ready to help the poor and  the needy.I pray that his pious soul may rest in peace under the divine feet of The Almighty God and also pray that The God should also give enough courage to his family and the whole nation to bear this unbearable loss.

A TERRIFIC DREAM OF CORONA DESH AND THE CHARMER

A short story

Picture by JG Sethi

After a long day of hectic activities I lay down on a charpie must have dozed off and soon saw a terrific dream. I saw that a strange Virus ugly in shap(e travelled down to earth found its  abode in Wuhan. This virus had many abilities, it could spread at the lighting speed towards distant lands and much like Raktabija, who had a boon that every drop of its blood would create a duplicate Raktabija, this virus would duplicate every time it came in contact with a living cell. This made this virus deadly than any army in the Universe. The virus was born as WUHAN VIRUS due its birth place took on the title of Corona Virus (The King Virus). The world leaders panicked and were in a fix, no one knew how to tackle this problem.

Soon these leaders found a mortal named  Modi clad as a sadhu with sparkling eyes having confidence showing determination. He disguised as Charmer, came to help all the colorful people in the Brahmand (whole wide world). The world was in the grip of this venomous virus, which was spreading by multiplying clones and within a twinkle of an eye would infect the entire Universe. All over the world one could see the devastation. Heaps of corpses could be seen everywhere. Some said that this enemy was unleashed by the gods as a punishment for polluting the world and going against nature.

Everyone seemed to be helpless, depressed and clueless. How to tackle this deadly  Mahamari (Pandemic) caused by this invisible, dangerous and nasty enemy. All recourse had failed. 

In order to counter this army even nuclear war against this was not  an option. This had put forth the question of survival of the fittest. The virus was gaining strength and becoming stronger, we already knew that it could now travel from human to human by touching, or by sneezing, coughing or spitting. But now it could jump upto distance of 6 to 9 feet, it could even live outside its host for more than 9 hours and could travel via touching anything metal and object & clothes etc. It was  also revealed that the symptoms were relieved within 14 days and the isolation of a person is needed. In Olden Days whenever any epidemic spread the patient was isolated and distance and proper hygiene was maintained .This was a sort of IKANTVAS (Solitude) in the olden days remaining isolated. As the news spread all over the world  our Respected Modi ji felt that some bold steps and determined steps of lock down were   to be taken. The countries like USA, FRANCE, ITALY, IRAN, SPAIN, GERMANY, Switzerland, Sweden  etc and all saarc countries of Asia came to Respected Modiji to lead them in the fight against this deadly coronavirus. 

Now the fight is a fierce one and all the countries have to give Asur Raksha (Demon) kawach (protection) sanitizers PPE  ICU s to all the citizens/hospitals and if any body declines to  cooperate will be dealt with severely under strict laws. Some of minor difficulties of rations and  other difficulties we should forget and join this great fight at present. Every citizen should remember that he is fighting this battle for himself and the whole mankind. 

I remember that after the partition in 1947 when we migrated from  KOHAT NWFP (NOW IN PAKISTAN) during partition I remember we stayed  in Delhi near Kabristan (graveyard) Chamlian and it was hard time even to survive. We had a family  of 3 sisters 3 brothers mother and father and used to take simple rotis and no curry or vegetables but  we had a jazba (passion) that we are in India, Hindustan our matribhumi (mother land) and we  can overcome all the difficulties whatsoever we were the masters of our own destiny. My BAUJI our  respected father used to say a urdu shayari MEHNAT KARO AZIZO  MEHNAT SE KAAM HOGA KEHTE HAIN JISEY WAQT AA KAR GULAM HOGA.

We as a family worked hard and all the family used to make cardboard boxes by hand and sold them near Bara Hindu RAO AHATA KIDARA SHIDI Pura MANAK PURA KAROL BAGH and so on. OUR BAUJI WAS A calm person and never in haste.ONCE he told that we should pray to God by uttering Gayatri Mantras 3 times in the morning and say that whatever the work we're doing  God should give success. He used to walk from Bara Hindu Rao TO LAJPAT NAGAR KHAN MARKET ETC on foot for collection of money against orders supplied He had good habits taking breakfast at correct time then lunch salad fruits milk and was a vegetarian No smoking. Once he narrated that he had a friend pathan who was forcing to smoke cigarette or hookah kash otherwise that he (pathan ) would shoot him . Bauji stood in front of him and challenged him that he could shoot him. This was the courage he was holding and told me that we should have courage to say no  and have self confidence.

Now coming to Coronavirus it is proved that it is dangerous and it is endangering the whole generation and world  alike so it is clear that disease knows nothing about caste creed age religion region and as such the whole world  (WORLD/JAHAN//KHAL AK)) is saying that coronavirus is dangerous and deadly So “ AWAZE KHALQ KO AWAZE KHUDA SAMJHO ,ISI MEIN HAMARI  HAMAREY PARIWAR AUR HAMARE HAMSAI AUR PURE GAON SHAHER PURY KAOM PUREY Desh aur puri Duniyaniya ka bhala hai .”

I  saw ANOTHER DREAM AND PREDICTIONS  as AAKAASH VANI:

1. By JUNE END INDIA WILL BE FREE FROM CORONA ij clockdown is maintained
2. World will look forward for demand of medicines
3. India will become the hub of manufacture Of phones
4. Unemployment will go down and   Lndia will be a I T hub
5. People Of other countries will queue up  for Indian Visa
6. Indian cuisines will be liked
7. Our medical facilities will be appreciated  naturopathy and yoga Pranyam teachers will be in great demand

Indians are optimistic people.Dream of Sone Ki CHIRYA ( GOLDEN BIRD) will be a reality ln next 5 to 10 years

JAI HIND!    JAI BHARAT! VANDE MATRAM!

Yours ever  

JAI GOPAL SETHI 

My Conscience is with my motherland Bharat

JAI BHARAT

Heart felt  shrandanjali to our beloved and respected Shri Atal Bihari Bajpaiji our former prime minister of India

On hearing and seeing the shocking  news of sad demise of Shri Atal Bihari ji I went in to deep sorrow and for the whole day I was glued to TV  and tried to see all the achievements and which were given to our Bharat . I still remember the olden days when I was at the age of 8 years or so in year 1948 I along my brother went to hear   the speech of Bajpaiji  at BARA TOOTI SADAR BAZAR DELHI and his Kavita (Poem) .His Party JAN SANGH was very popular in those days and there was much zeal in the people of India but still Hyderabad was not merged with India.Soon after the speech the mob became unruly and the police had  to resort to lathi charge and then teargas shells were thrown to control the mob .We being child had to rush with wet handkerchief's on our eyes and hid under the safe corners ,Soon a profession started and public was shouting ASSAN JANA HYDERABAD LUK BUN KE  DUSHMAN NU  MAR BHAGANA AYE LUK BHAN KE His speech was marvelous and full of patriotism.OUR HEART FELT SHRANDAJALI TO OUR GREAT LEADER.

Thoghts of an old man

While I was in deep thinking I wish to convey the thoughts of an old man to convince the public that how one feels when he is old on this elderly day international :

  I am old

But as good as gold
I am not for wealth
And only for health

I am aging
My health is failing;
Still I am moving
.And my work ,I am doing.

Fascination for material lust
Has almost gone to the dust;
I only seek my mental peace
Which is blocked by Youngsters:tease

I expect the young to respect
But they fail to see this aspect;
They talk of gap -generation
And forget to give us due veneration.

I pray to God
Who is the world"s only lord;
To give me strength and long life
So as to continue my prayers with my wife',

Love and peace,I want in abound
Here and there and everywhere around ;
And when I leave this earth at last
May I feel the blithe of my past.

Showing of humanity and its give pleasure

On today as I was just supervising the repair work of my house the worker was just drilling the hole in the wall and all of a sudden the stair slipped and the person just fell down, I took him to near by hospital and 4 stitches could stop the bleeding.I had to pay the bill which was around 2350 0nly As I returned home I was satisfied as i have done a good job.My soul felt proud that I  have done my duty to serve a person who needed medical attention.

Cancer Treatment and its reimbursement of Medical bill of my wife Shashi Sethi

Waiting endlessly for the settlement of medical bill even I have written the complaint to Honourable Chief minister Uttar Pradesh Shri Aaditya NathYogi ji in JanSunwai.I am hoping against hopes,

Cancer treatment  of My wife and success to some extent

Yesterday as we were sitting and talking about cancer and the progress made by my wife and thanking God for the courage given to her as about one and half year has elapsed and the progress was good.Then it so happened that some salt in the dish started painful effect on the tongue,We showed to Dr Hazarika and he told that some teeth edge started hitting the tongue it should be grind id and to make it round and smooth.We showed to Dr Rita Aluwalia and she has done the work and now we shall again go Max and

Helicopter sell mounted on scooter

When I hear the bad news of terrorists killing the innocent human in the name of so called God or Allaha  I get pained and to my mind comes the idea of Helicopter shell mounted scooters.These scooters can be made bullet proof and can be used to seige the area where the terrorists are hiding and then flush out the terrorists,Our govenment should plunder on this idea and save the human loss

Again Medical treatment of Shashi (my wife) now the most dreaded Cancer of neck and tongue

As ihave reported that cancer  of Shashi was taken up in Max Saket in march /april 2016,Now the course of radiation and chemo is going on we are undergoing tough time which I will descibe  later on .

AGAIN HELICOPTER SHELL ON SCOOTER

In my previous blog I referred about the helicopter shell on scooter and narrated its some of its benefits.In this context I have heard that some company is working on this idea and day is not far when we will see these on the roads.As a matter of fact when we heard that such and such deaths have occurred due to accidents I think of that idea of scooter which should be safe.The helicopter shell be made bullet proof water proof and shock proof with the help of modern technology.These scooters can be used to raid the hide outs of terrorists during encounters thereby reducing the deaths of our brave soldiers.I am a civil engineer but I had worked in Tube well department of UP about 20 years.During droughts I have fished out many pumping sets fallen in housing pipes in Handia  District Allahabad by help of a fishing tool which was made by Jugar locally which was later on in great demand by minor irrigation department.During the drought period the ponds were filled with water from tubewells water to save the animals and people .This action was appreciated by the then District Magisterate of Allahabad Sh  Goswami ji.

Shashi " s Medical fight against suspected cancer of neck and tongue

In the month of  March 2016 all of a sudden while wiping the face Shashi realised that there is some Gillity (bowl type hard skin) near the neck right side .We got some suspicion and went to get some medicine to cure the tongue.By the way we went to Dr BRAT for further constultation he found some swelling under the tongue and recommended bypass of tongue.Later on we consulted Dr Hazarika of Max of Saket..Dr Hazarika recommended the surgery.Dr has done the surgery of neck and tonggue  . WE got the discharge of Shashi after paying the highest bill.Shashi is now getting post medical care at home .We are taking all the care but it is known to be the greatest fight against cancer and we are ready for the same. God will give all the courage and the will wishes of all will surely bore fruits.. 

21 st Death ANNIVERSARY OF BAUJI OUR RESPECTED FATHER)

On 22nd January 2016 I got up early and having bath I started for temple to do puja and after that I returned and was in deep meditation and rememberd him and his golden rules .It looked like that he is still with us shovering his blessings.But we are missing his soft touch and voice which he used to utter , Ram Nam Ka Muza jis ki Zuban par AA gya who saare padharth pa gya.  again Ram nam ki loot ha loot sake to loot    Unt kaal  pachhtaye ga Jab paran jainge chhoot.He used to utter some words Agah ki upni moat se kyi busher nahi  saaman so baras ka  pur pul ki kbabar nahi.He is always with us and we feel as if he is showing the right path to us .We pray to God that he must be under His Devine feet.

An immagination in january 2016

As I have read and seen on TV the cowardly act of terrorists that made a attack on Pathan kot air base I was stunt and shocked as these terrorist have attacked on humanity.One thing came to mind that A project should be made to equip our defence persons to have bullet proof helicopters with other defence gadgets to hit the terrorist where they may be hiding and firing.This armored scooters can reach near the hideouts and smash the terrorists and we can save our brave soldiers lives which are so precious for our motherland.As i have also mentioned that scooter with helicopter can be so designed that it can be
 safe for the rider as well as in difficult terrain  and hazardous weather and natural calamities and accident proof and shockproof.

75th Birth Day

As clock stuck 12 0 clock  at mid night of 30 Th  Nov  2015 my 75th birth dayI started  getting happy birth day wishes from my son montoo and daughter Anu.and of course my wife Shashi.As I usually used to say that I was in the seventh of delight on that day as it was auspicious day for me and all of us.Now we are living in 20 Th century and no body has time in this fast life.So my son has fixed a day as 5th december to celebrate and invited all the relatives at Gurgaon.We started at 4 pm from Delhi and reached the destination around 5 pm on that day.Within a short time relatives and friends started coming from far and wide.The party started and some children sung songs which were quite praise worthy and we all encouraged them.We danced on some tunes .Bobby Sabherwal narrated the songs and Bobby kohli cracked jokes .The arrangement set by my son was quite perfect .We thank my son that he had set this surprise programme.These happy moments we will not forget. We also thank all my relatives who took the trouble to attend my 75 th birth day celebrations .Very Many thanks to all once again.

Medical Bills Cleared

After great efforts and long correspondence the medical bills of Shashi and mine have been cleared and  I thank the department and all the concerned authorities for this .I also thank the new law of RTI which has expedited the process.I being senior citizen could not rush from Delhi ,Lucknow,and Gorakhpur  and Meerut for getting the technical checking of the medical bills from CMO office of Lucknow and Meerut.I live in Delhi and I sent bills to head of Department at Lucknow the bills in question were approved by CMO Lucknow but after passing the bills the Account department again sent it to CMO Meerut which has resulted in delay of 2 months in getting my bills payment.Actually there is one GO of UP Govt that retired persons who are living in Delhi can get the approval of CMO Meerut .But once the bill has been passed by one CMO there is no need of countersigning the same by another CMO.It should be left to the head of department to send the bill to any of CMO as per their financial limitations.Any way I shall try to to keep in mind that we will not fall ill so that we may not be burden to the department and put up the situation for which we have to run from pillar to post to get the legitimate medical claim cleared through lethargic procedures.
