Phone booths across country
There has been a desire to search for phone booths across country. The freedom that comes along can be entirely understood if one ever seeks to free himself/herself from a cell bell. It is the cell that sets you in a state of suspended animation leading to animosity of thoughts and ideas. Repeated usage of a cell not only leads to a state of disenchantment; it could also lead to repeated postures where to smell the raw scent you have to bend. What better way to get over this than free yourself from cell and the accompanying bell.
In Kolkata
In the city of Kolkata, right in the heart of Howrah station the phone booth facility is no less sensation; one near the departure gate right before the taxi stand and another at the first gate from which you enter/exit. There could be a fair sprinkling of landline advantage in other locations of station premises as well. Going to Bentinck street, there is a phone booth on either side adjacent to a hot tea outlet. This can be identified by a board that suggests the rate for hot tea effective from 19/9/2011; special full -12rs, special half - 8rs. One stationary van in the Bentinck street also serves as a handy outlet for making phone calls; the present status is not known. In Lenin Sarani there is one near Hotel PAradise; the shop also dangles the advantage of selling travelling bags of different sizes which most can brag.
In Rasbhari Road there is straits restaurant and in its vicinity are a slew of typewriters in operation. Right opposite the typewriters is a cyber cafe which doubles as STD/PCO booth. This is known as Peoples Book Centre. Further down the road in Kalighat there is one opposite the temple and if you set yourself on a search for others the chances are you would find it hard to zero in. There could be innumerable in and around Bhowanipore; probably a walk inside the market could get you the phone booth. One is sure of a phone booth near Bijali theatre where there are over half a dozen shops on xerox.
If one is moving around new market area next to S S Hogg market there is aircel message point serving as a phone booth with the personnel at the counter as energetic as ever to hand you the change if a big note has been shown. Santosh Tailors also has a phone booth inside and here too the cooperation is widely appreciated. There could be handy if not innumerable options on B B Ganguly street and Chittaranjan avenue and once one is able to place them the same can be elucidated.
In Ahmedabad
Moving towards Ahmedabad in Lalbazar area near Relief Cinema there is Salapose Road. And here the outlet selling soda drinks has in the vicinity one phone booth with an equal spread of biscuits and attar.In the main railway station of the city, there is a phone booth away from platform one.
In Somnath there are none in the shopping centre and one has to walk a bit before accessing the one run by vaidhya bhai in prabhas patan. Veraval can get you in the market but probably none in the bus stand.
As for national capital, the search for a phone booth near AIIMS is not bothering except for the fact that as one starts making calls to Leh and Mcleodganj there is an active gathering of people who till the other minute were engaged in acts of catering. Privacy lost and and amidst preservatives lot, the act to convey your consent on a concert gets defeated and at most the next time round you could be garland feted. Perhaps the urgency to seek phone booths from Kanchipuram to Kanniyakumari has been to turn myself away from tweets and tense teeth as this act of tweeting is nothing but blowing the trumpet and let the world know who are equally capable of carrying a bucket. Tweets are here to stay as day is not far away when water won't come in the bucket and equally tempting would be the tweet on how to get water ticket. So far no tweets have come on water and waiter and once they begin to come you can say with certainty you have a rotating bum. Herein the policy should be to lift the veil on phone booths and endorse those gems who root for this decades old truth.
