Reaching New Delhi from Jodhpur some weeks ago
Some weeks ago i had the opportunity to visit Jodhpur and after spending four to five days decided to leave for National Capital of Delhi.
Leave at 12.10 pm from Mannu Guest House located in Jalori Gate. Autos in the city are least demanding and i hail one driven by Mr Yusuf Khan . Mr Yusuf Khan is very cautious while driving his vehicle and in the past 12 years only once his most prized possession has given him trouble.
Going past Arora Makhaniya lassi
- Shree Murlidhar Jewellers
- Railway Station Jodhpur
- JDA Office
- Lords Inn Jodhpur
Then there are directions for Pali, Sirohi and Udaipur destinations.
A little later come across Gyanyodya Make your dreams come true under guidance of IITians.
- Shree Kuldas photocopy and stationers
- Senapati Bhawan
- Time School
- Directions for Sasai Colony, Nehru colony, Bagai Khana, Marwar Defence
- Ashok Dairy and Provision store
I reach Jodhpur Airport at 12.37 pm. Welcome to India's first airport with 4G wi-fi facility.
Announcements are being made for different flights including one for Surat. Come across Mr Bharat Singh working at airport from 10.30 am to 2.30 pm. He tells me Bikaner is 300 kms and Jaisalmer 270 kms from Jodhpur. Perhaps a second check is required as far as the distances are concerned.
There is a couple from Colorado. The man corrects me that there is only one Colorado. I tell him there is North Carolina, South Carolina and North Dakota and South Dakota. The couple took flight from Denver to New York and from New York to New Delhi. We discuss about Mr Rex Tillerson who was till then the US Secy of State and doing quite well. The couple has been to Amritsar, Mcleodganj, Rishikesh (stayed in Rishikesh for one month) Agra, Udaipur, Pushkar and Jodhpur.
There is a board that says Security checks have been intensified due to heightened threat perception. All are requested to cooperate. Mr Mayur B Ajgar of CISF is very thorough with frisking.
Meet a group from Taiwan that includes Mr Guill from US/Taiwan. Mr Guill is working in Tata Communications in US. His wife is working in Taiwan. Meet Mr Anwar Ali associated with Ret movie shot in Jaisalmer. Meet Mr Rohit who has been cast in the movie. Mr Anwar Ali stays in Mumbai and hails from Andhra Pradesh. He tells me Guntur and Vijaywada combined together makes Amravati the capital of Andhra Pradesh. ETV Andhra Pradesh channel and its reach is something we discuss.
Meet Ms Kim working in CISF hailing from Manipur. Meet Mr Rahul working in India Army as Captain. He came to Jodhpur to meet his sister pursuing a dental course from Vyas Institute. Mr Rahul hails from North East and he is very humble. He is posted in Hyderabad.
Say no to child sexual abuse is prominently displayed on a board and that shows the need to create more awareness about the same.
On screen NDTV India news channel is belting out poll results.
Announcement is being made for Surat Goa flight. The Snack bar which is not far away and goes by the name Jal Pan Griha offers tea for 40 rs, masala tea for 50 rs and coffee 50 rs. Perhaps the New Delhi airport should toe the same line.
There is a family from Lucknow speaking in Bangla, largely spoken in West Bengal State and in Bangladesh. The family has one member staying in New York and perhaps been on a holiday to India. The family had been to Jaisalmer, Jodhpur. Took a flight from Delhi to Jaisalmer. I tell them there is no flight connectivity between Delhi and Jaisalmer. They correct me by stating that Jaisalmer has a new airport and there are flights to Jaisalmer.
Meet a family from Himachal Pradesh who had come to Jodhpur to participate in a function in a school where they studied 55 years ago. Meet Mr Gajendar on tarmac. There is a couple from Switzerland. Meet a man from Sikar. Meet a man from Jodhpur running a stationery shop in Rudrapur in Uttarakhand State. On the tarmac the guy who looks at the boarding pass before letting in the passengers in the flight is rude to this man from Jodhpur. One should give respect to everyone irrespective of the fabric he or she sports and background he or she comes from.
Take the seat a little before three. Captain Mr Deepak Yadav is at the helm. The plane moves at 3.06. A little later stops for 10 minutes. Moves and takes off at 3.23. All we have on hand is a clear sky. The flight lands at New Delhi airport at 4.18 pm. Take auto from public transport centre driven by Mr Arshad. Reach home a little before 6.00.
As per reports there is a move to increase auto fare in the National Capital of Delhi. That should be least tried and if at all fares have to be revised for the first three kms the base fare should remain the same. Any fare increase would be highly unjustified. As for SC/ST Act there is misuse of the same over the years and reams of newsprint talk about its misuse. A middle ground should be explored as a large number of innocent people have been framed for no fault.
At another level the Syrian Administration using Chemical weapons against its own citizens was appalling and here repeated air strikes to deflate its chemical weapons could dissuade it from toeing that line.
