Floods And Landslides In Kerala's Wayanad

Floods And Landslides In Kerala's Wayanad

Floods and landslides do take place in our country. Hilly terrain can't remain untouched if there are torrential rains. This was what happened in Wayanad leaving huge trail of destruction and erasing settlements after settlements. Idduki and Palakkad in Kerala State had received more rains than Wayanad but given the hilly background it could not escape nature's wrath. One wonders why settlements were allowed over the years to come up when all knew that this part of Kerala is prone to landslides at drop of hat. 

Torrential Rains Without A Break

With rains on July 30 showing no signs of abating those who were hit the most came from poor background staying put in this part of Wayanad to earn livelihood. In this country those who seek employment to support their families are the worst hit and are admonished by nature for no fault. In this country there is urban distress and rural distress multiplying each passing moment and here those tied to hilly terrain their predicament increase by leaps and bounds if they set out in search of jobs in areas most exposed to landslides. Torrential rains overnight and without break gave little time for residents to reach safe hideouts and most could not be rescued. Those who have lost their near and dear ones and those who have been displaced stare at uncertain future. Uncertain for the very fact that would they be able to come out of relief camps and get back to their sites where they had their dwellings. 

State Govt Assistance Should Be Handy Enough To Start Life All Over Again

Rescue efforts to reach to the last person in this devastation is hampered by the fact that bridges have broken up and what to talk of roads even passages have been washed out. It would take months for people to get back to their respective areas and raise hamlets for which they would need State Government Assistance. Assistance shouldn't be few and far and those who have been rescued enough efforts should be initiated to instill confidence that they can start their life all over again. 

Flooding Way Back In 2018

Flooding in parts of Kerala way back in 2018 and horrifying details emerging from the same illustrates that this Southern State has been at the receiving end of nature's ferocity and madness with which employment is promised do raise a storm. Passion to live and passion to pursue a clean life brings with it share of speculation with no contingency plans in place. Flooding of 2018 may take a lifetime for some to stage a comeback and this time round that tedious punch shouldn't kick in. There are fault lines and fault lines across India given the mountainous and rugged terrain that it hosts and efforts should be to let in settlements if there is a back up plan. In the absence of exigency deal settlements shouldn't be tried. Wayanad and the residents should raise a prayer that semblance of order should come in soon and with nature they should not be in cluttered pact.

Visiting Goddess Meenakshi Amman Temple In Madurai In Tamil Nadu State In South India

Visiting Goddess Meenakshi Amman Temple In Madurai In Tamil Nadu State In South India

When I was in Chennai I had the opportunity to visit Chennai Central Railway Station and the train that had pulled in not much earlier to depart was none other Chennai Central Lokmanya Terminus (Mumbai) Super Fast Express. The thought that crossed my mind was where were the tracks for trains to run at full throttle and much crumbling railway structure was a cause of concern. Having returned back to Tourist Homes I was yet to free myself from sentiments swirling around Indian Railways hitting one running imponderable after another with passage of time. Coming to my entry to Madurai The City I desired to stay next to the temple and not College House the option which I had exercised on previous occasions. The lodge in West Chitrai Street seem to be the perfect setting for me to sail and I could think of proceeding to other destinations with ease. No sooner I waded into West Tower Street right next to a police van an old gentleman spitted before me and I could visualise personnel from Home Ministry New Delhi had infiltrated this Madurai Space As Well. Checking the centres from where milk and black tea could be availed there was not much success and as directed by lodge personnel I visited North India Bhojanalaya (Food Centre) to take North Indian Meals. To my horror I bumped into a restaurant fellow who expressed his desire to serve and there were nasty tales to follow. Every time he used to bring roti (bread) prior to that he would clear his throat and spit as I was sitting in the vicinity of Kitchen Area. I could sense this meal could give me goose bumps and that was the script to unfold few hours later. 

Overcoming Stomach Tangle With No Clarity On Visiting Goddess Meenakshi Amman Temple

When I finished the meal and returned to my room just under three hours early Friday morning I had a long session of stomach upset followed by pain all over the body. Prior to taking black tea from Sri Meenakshi Coffee Bar just before noon had set in I had curd rice to get stomach in order. In Sri Meenakshi Coffee Bar there is a huge rush as always and it is no less than a challenge to get your turn to get the requisite tea. That tea did wonders and my pain had largely subsided. I even collected apples from a store that is almost 3 kms from West Tower Street and they too looked probable to bring me close to a desired outcome. As evening set in I was still in a state of uncertainty whether I would be able to visit Meenakshi Amman Temple and that too the next day. Stomach sending mixed signals it seemed I may or may not get out of this impasse. 

Gaining Glimpse Of Goddess Meenakshi

Saturday I left the bed and once having taken shower set out for my pilgrimage to Meenakshi Amman Temple. I had joined the queue by 6.15 AM and from 6.30 onwards the queue did not move. Till 7.30 I was at the same point where I was one hour earlier and I jumped the railing to get the special entrance ticket. For this as well the queue in inner courtyard seem to be long and by the time I entered sanctum sanctorum it would have been well past 9. Sighting Goddess Meenakshi draped in green was blessing indeed and I thanked Goddess Meenakshi for letting me have more than a fleeting glimpse. 

Reaching Lord Shiva Idol 

Reaching Lord Shiva idol one need not circumvent as directions are clear and precise. Moments later I bowed before Lord Shiva lingam and desired to gain one more time glimpse of Goddess Meenakshi. The security personnel well briefed in Hindi did not let me in and after purchase of Special Entrance Ticket approached Superintendent of Temple who made noting in Tamil. By the time I reached sanctum sanctorum it was already 10.30 and doors were shut. By 10.45 I had another opportunity to gain glimpse of Goddess Meenakshi and it was wonderful. It was no less than outstanding achievement and may Goddess Meenakshi bless all in the world. With diary content done and dusted on three different occasions in the temple it was a fabulous moment for me. 

Sale Of Sweets Inside Temple Should Be Stopped To Maintain Sanctity Of Temple

Coming to the temple proceedings on earlier occasions after visiting Lord Shiva sanctum sanctorum one could still return to Goddess Meenakshi Idol and by standing on the iron railing get the glimpse. All of that had been stopped for now. The rush inside the temple is huge and so is the rush of vendors to sell eatables and sweets. This sale of sweets should be stopped as I have noticed that while standing in the queue with the hands with which devotees have these sweets with the same hands they touch idols. To maintain sanctity of temple this sale should be stopped keeping in mind there are large number of idols of Lord Ganesh and others that one can bow before and touch as well. The temple is gargantuan with one noticeable Idol of Lord Ganesh which is giant. The temple is there from time immemorial and though mammoth may be the gathering the devotees have wishes which are by no means monumental as seen through the eyes of Goddess Meenakshi and these wishes are spelt with an eye on the world. By the time I came out of Temple it was almost 11 and this visit would be recalled for giving me three occasions to see Goddess Meenakshi and her excellence in giving each soul the opportunity to gain a glance howsoever brief it may be. Broad has been the opening to the temple and temple hosts devotees running into thousands each day round the year. If one were to take a round of outer courtyard it would roughly take 15 to 18 minutes translating to 2 kms in all. I would remain ever grateful to Goddess Meenakshi and may she shower blessings on occasions that bring good or mixed tidings. 

Visiting Madurai Airport

Once back to the lodge I changed clothes and returned to Sri Meenakshi Hotel Pure Veg and took curd rice. This was followed by a visit to a travel agent office where a woman expressed her inability to dispense flight ticket. Flight ticket for the very fact that plans to visit Rameswaram and Kanniyakumari had been dropped and it was a better bet to head to New Delhi The Capital Of India and wait for the opportune moment to visit these two pilgrimage centres. Felicitations in good quantum would have poured in had I visited Rameswaram And Kanniyakumari but for now it was appropriate to head to North India and not South or West India much chased by rains. Connectivity to these two places from Madurai was not remarkable as trains departed in the middle of night and there was no convoy which ran during day time except for one which ran on Thursday. There were slew of travel agent stores across Madurai Railway Station but there were none to man them. I set out for Madurai Airport in an auto with Mr Zaheer Husain/Khan at the helm and reached the destination under 30 minutes. The airport looked to be less cluttered unlike airports in North and West India and passage to booking centre swift and easy.

Making Mental Note Of Other Lodges In Chennai And Leaving For Madurai In South India

Making Mental Note Of Other Lodges In Chennai And Leaving For Madurai In South India

Having stayed in Chennai all of six days it was time to explore other lodges where stay while returning from Madurai/Rameswaram/Kanniyakumari may be tried. This was provided that I had blessings to visit the aforementioned places and with or with no sighting of inclement weather I was able to retain aces. The three lodges in Kennet Lane I visited to settle the query on tariff with no inhospitable terrain from terrace were Lakshmi Mohan Lodge 5, Kennet Lane, New Lakshmi Lodge (Managed By Chennai Stays) 16, Kennet Lane and Hotel MASA 15/1 Kennet Lane. Of these three I had stayed in Hotel MASA in the past while on the way to gauge sentiments in and around Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh. All the three were inclined to let me in provided rooms were vacant and this vacancy primarily depended on months when state level govt exams were held in the city and aspirants occupying rooms during that period. One noticeable aspect about Tamil Nadu and other States In South India is to do with the fact that exams are conducted without hiccups and leaving no room for leakage of question papers howsoever hard some forces may try. 

The Dry Cleaner Ever Smiling And Woman Who Was There Way Back In 2011 Having Blessings Of Lord

Having made mental note of these three lodges with Hotel MASA and opposite to that the dry cleaner whom I invariably came across looked to be a gentleman with a recurring smile. Here in the dry cleaner store I can recollect there was a young woman way back in 2011 and her glistening eyes enough to convey that she was a blessed soul drawing enough strength from God. Now the gentleman who was there told me clothes could be returned two days later and here there was no trace of that colleen. Determined to leave Chennai as approach to cyber cafes across city looked to be a tired script I visited Chennai Egmore Station First Floor Reservation Centre. That was not to be there and I was told the reservation centre had shifted to back side of railway station. I walked and as I reached the counter I could sense the tatkal ticket availability would be nigh impossible as already a queue was visible. The reservation personnel I handed over the reservation slip for train number 16127 Guruvayur Express leaving Chennai Egmore at 9.45 AM and reaching Madurai at 5.40 PM. When he handed over the ticket and I came out of reservation centre I realised he had erred as he had booked the ticket to Dindigul three stations earlier (Kodaikanal Road, Sholavandan, Kudalnagar) than Madurai. I brought to his notice and he after cancelling the ticket issued a fresh one having waiting list status. I returned to my room in Tourist Homes and began to ponder on the possibility of the ticket getting confirmed. Surprise of all surprises I received message on phone about the status of Dindigul ticket which had been cancelled and yet I was receiving text to this effect. I was in mood to make a dash to the reservation centre as it was too laborious and kept to myself. 

Meal From Saravana Bhavan In Kennet Lane; Security Personnel And His Cherubic Smile

For Tamil Nadu Meals as I visited Sangeetha Restaurant Egmore I realised dining service hadn't started for one particular wing and I settled for Saravana Bhavan In Kennet Lane . Meal was good so was the hospitality and security man whom I came across and his cherubic smile was enough to illustrate despite travails of life some are able to get going. Thursday the day I was to leave Chennai I visited Modern Snacks/Chennai Gate and had black tea with no desire to have milk as I was supposed to keep date with long distance travel. After packing bags with water supply constrained and those managing the same somewhat diffident I left Tourist Homes with mixed thoughts. Nights were hard given the banging on lift gates and days were wonderful with sighting of enough men, women and babies with strong traits. 

Reaching Chennai Egmore Station; Guruvayur Express Leaving From Platform 5

I marched to Chennai Egmore station with one set of porters enunciating that Guruvayur Express would leave from this very platform that was 4. I thought I won't have to walk much as Platform 4 was next to entrance. But the screen had another tale to weave. There was no clarity on Guruvayur Express and that too leaving from Platform 4 and by 9.20 the screen displayed that the train would depart from Platform 5. I trudged all the way to Platform 5; negotiating stairs was one big ask. By the time I settled in coach A1 seat number 8 I sighted one family from Vijaywada In Andhra Pradesh State taking seat next to mine. They looked to be cheerful despite long travel they had maintained right through night. Guruvayur Express left at 9.40 AM  with first stopover in Tambaram. Here a guy from Tamil Heartland boarded having seat number 7. All through the journey he dabbled with two smartphones with conversations less and receding. He was a gentle soul and he informed he was going to join his family in Madurai who had gone there a day earlier to visit Lord Vishnu temple. Going by the name Koodal Azhagar Temple this is a must visit place if one is in Madurai. His dabbling skills showed he was well versed with smartphones theatrics and he could handle the assignment with ease. Stations that came on the way were Chengalpattu, Melmaruvattur, Tindivanam, Villupuram, Vridhachalam, Pennadam, Ariyalur, Srirangam, Tiruchchirapali, Manaparai, Dindigul, Kodaikanal Road, Sholavandan, Kudalnagar and finally Madurai.  A query about flood waters having gushed in colonies of Chennai some years ago he was frank enough to state that Tambaram is quite steep and none of the flooding was seen here. 

Reaching Madurai And Taking A Room In West Chitrai Street

When the convoy reached Madurai it was 6.05 PM with a reminder that this train has more stoppages than Tamil Nadu Sampark Kranti originating from Hazrat Nizamuddin Station In New Delhi (Hazrat Nizamuddin Shrine Is Nearby). With a halt for five minutes I deboarded and porter told me this train reaches Guruvayur the next morning at 4. Guruvayur I had been in September 2023 with a stay as broad as seven days. The next opportunity to visit Guruvayur would only come if I have the blessings of Guruvayurappan. I hailed auto and reached West Tower Street and walked all the way to West Chitrai Street to Vijaylakshmi Lodge. The gentleman appeared to be cool and calm and I took room number 103. Still the big game had yet to begin and I could not foresee. I was here to pray and pray to Goddess Meenakshi with thoughts on next voyage.

Having Reached Chennai On A Saturday

Having Reached Chennai On A Saturday

Having reached Chennai on a Saturday I could make out there were fair number of women who had taken Chennai Rajdhani train from Hazrat Nizamuddin Station (Hazrat Nizamuddin Shrine Is Nearby) in New Delhi and they looked less exhausted and weary despite locked in train coach for nearly 30 hours. These women probably residing in Chennai had gone through all this on umpteen occasions and they deem fit to take a train be it shine or rain. The train conversation/thoughts veered around issues as varied as less quality jobs being created across country vis-a-vis employment in lower segments like agriculture and trade which hadn't tanked by all means and had registered impressive gains. 

From These Findings On Labour Markets To Finding Space In Tourist Homes In Chennai Egmore

According to a finding to accommodate new entrants to labour market India needs to raise about 12 million jobs a year in the decade that would ring in. A growth of over and above 7 per cent would at the most add 8 million jobs a year with the reminder that share of agriculture in GDP from a high of 40 per cent in the '70s has dwindled to 15 per cent but still agriculture accounts for 42 per cent of workforce (Yes 42 Per Cent Of Workforce). As these issues began to take centre stage while on a train ride and as the convoy kissed Chennai and roundabout the thoughts were on the lodge and the leverage that I would have to primarily settle for. It was Mr Prema the porter who carried the luggage to the auto stand and Mr Dinesh Kumar was kind enough to drop me at Chennai Egmore. I didn't have to trudge much and in nick of time I zeroed in on Tourist Homes Hotel in Gandhi Irwin Road. With a tariff way above Rs 1000 given the inroads made by GST Oven I was inclined to stay as this looked to be the desired hideout from activities and conduct that had bothered me in the past. The room allotted to me was 207 and in 206 was Home Ministry personnel who was tailing me right from New Delhi. From his room Hindi Channels were audible and I was able to break the puzzle who all were instrumental in switching on the light outside my room which I used to switch off. The banging of Lift Gates which was right opposite my room all through night during my stay was also the handiwork of these guys from Home Ministry New Delhi. 

Milk From Chennai Gate The Best; Black Tea From Modern Snacks

Mr Kannan was at the counter looking cheerful to welcome me and after quick shower I made a dash to explore the nearby areas where I could get milk not mixed with water and black tea. The next morning I settled for Mulberry store where milk had a fair share of water and yet I took two disposable cups followed by black tea. Black tea was arranged by Chennai Gate restaurant as well where the proprietor  few days later was honest enough to admit that milk is mixed with water. Despite that admission the milk from Chennai Gate Seem To Be The Best available among varied stores I had tried. Black tea from Modern Snacks who had three men attending to customers was equally great and here one among them seem to be always smiling. One particular day when I had just entered the store one guy began the conversation with peers in Tamil that I would ask for one cup of black tea followed by another and here a customer hailing from Madurai kind enough to reveal the content of conversation that had taken place. Modern Snacks modern to the core was up and running 6 AM onwards and so were Chennai Gate, Vasanta Bhawan and others. 

Visiting Namma Veedu Vasanta Bhawan; Visiting Mount Road Dargah

Namma Veedu Vasanta Bhawan with Mr Amjad at the counter was kind enough to host me and here idlys and dosas in my breakfast were enough to fill. For Tamil Nadu Meals Sangeetha Restaurant was the best and not lagging in the race was Saravana Bhavan in Kennet Lane Egmore. Fathima Medicals and Mr Basha in Arunachalam Street were helpful despite the googly on internet from other quarters that I could not dodge. All through six days in Chennai the city looked less intimidating and here search for internet browsing couldn't get me the requisite space. All through Arunachalam Street on foot to Triplicane High Road on auto the hunt and quest for internet couldn't yield much. Quite exasperated at the outcome I made one final bid at Mount Road and it evoked response short of smirk and snigger. A Mount Road Voyage gave me the opportunity to visit Dargah-e-Hazrath Syed Moosa Shah Qadri Baghdadi who was known to be Sufi Saint of 18th century. Mount Road apart I would have crisscrossed Kennet Lane on innumerable occasions where Pandian Hotel had a cyber cafe and so did the entrance to this lane from Pantheon Road. All that had been brought down over the years by orders not known to mankind. With no success in getting stories done I could sense the next best opportunity would be in Madurai. Had it not been for notings made in New Delhi some three months ago on train connectivity between Chennai Egmore and Madurai I would have been in a state of limbo in getting the requisite ticket. 

Sacred Heart Shrine

From Wednesday onwards water supply to bathroom had all but evaporated and I had to take shower in some other room. Water intricacies made me make a resolve that I would have to quit Chennai and proceed to Madurai. If some guy used to bang the lift gates in the middle of night all through six days so that I couldn't gain sleep there were moments of happiness as well like taking snacks from A R Rahman Cafe in Pantheon Road or visiting outer precincts of Sacred Heart Shrine and that too as well in Pantheon Road. This visit opened doors to a South India where these many days in Chennai I had spent way back in 2014-2015 and this time round the stay had its share of hits and misses. South India I adore and I relish the cheerful index of cities that have a neat tale to them.

Taking Chennai Rajdhani Train To Chennai City In South India

Taking Chennai Rajdhani Train To Chennai City In South India

The day I am supposed to leave for Chennai the previous night is spent admiring the fact that access to this South Indian city would be minus hiccups. Access to South India for pilgrimage that could well take me to Chennai, Madurai, Rameswaram, Kanniyakumari, Bengaluru et al. Still the thought is all about whether I would be able to gain access to tatkal train ticket and if so what would be the seating arrangement like. Elaborate arrangements have to made while travelling from Delhi keeping in mind the journey time spent in train may or may not be fine. The next day a little before 10 AM I logged in to Indian Railway train site and every time I tried to proceed the message would come the online podium hadn't been thrown open to public and try after some time. After 10.05 the online booking began and by the time I secured a ticket it was of upper berth in a coach about which less said the better. With seat number 14 and nothing left to imagine I left Safdarjung Enclave home at 1.47 PM with the traffic on road suggesting there would be diehard optimists who would be able to maintain sanity across spectrum even if vehicles were multiplying every passing hour. Go past INA Market at 1.55 and reach Hazrat Nizamuddin Station (Hazrat Nizamuddin Shrine Is Nearby) at 2.10 with the reminder that if auto has to make the commute complete then the passenger besides Rs 200 would have to shell out another Rs 50 for the toll tax in vicinity of station that had kicked in. 

Reach Hazrat Nizamuddin Station Platform Number 7 In New Delhi

Reach platform 7 at 2.20 with an assurance that Chennai Rajdhani would pull inside platform at 3 PM. It is porter Mr Subhash who carries the luggage to coach A2 and by the time I settle in many have trooped inside. Still thoughts are on upcoming train journey and the hassle free index. At 3.15 a middle aged woman takes the seat opposite mine and she is on a call elucidating what all she had to go through at home fixing the shower. Now train attendant emerges and wishes to know what is my seat number and where I wish to go and thereafter checking the facts on his mobile. I wonder how train attendant could double as TTE (Train Ticket Examiner) and perhaps Indian Railways moved this proposal with ease. The train leaves after 3.30 and recurring thoughts are on who all would be geared to launch offensive tirade with hints dropped by cops. There were three other trains which had left Hazrat Nizamuddin prior to Chennai Rajdhani on the same route and they were Gondwana Express, Goa Express and Vande Bharat. To expect this train to maintain steady speed would be akin to asking for moon and to maintain moderate speed was the staple diet it had been fed on. Right from its passage from Hazrat Nizamuddin the coach of this train would jerk every time it used to slow down and every time it used to speed up it used to jerk again. One wonders where is the need for high speed trains like Vande Bharat when there are no tracks and none to come up in future as well. Vande Bharat has been a drain on exchequer and it essentially entails the possibility that for it get a clear passage all other trains have to be set aside. 

The Big Game Has Begun

When finally the TTE emerges he verifies the details in his computer tablet and tells the woman that her seat is in A5 coach and she needs to vacate the seat here. No sooner the woman leaves and I start reading newspaper I can sense some conversation taking nearby and when conversation is laced with filthy abuse I can make out The Big Game Has Begun. When I remove the curtains I notice the coach attendant in animated discourse with a guy from North India (Punjab/Rajasthan) who is all thrilled to get the conversation peppered with abuse upshot. This guy is travelling without a ticket and on a previous occasion when I came out of AC environs I had noticed he haggling with TTE on the sum total that he would have to pay.  TTE was not willing to settle for anything less giving the reasoning he has to run his family. This guy from North India continues the tirade and train attendant joining the chorus without a break. There were umpteen number of vacant seats in the coach and why train attendant and the guy without ticket made to sit right next to my seat. It is all stage managed and nuisance of cops is in ample supply. By the time the train reaches Bhopal it is almost 11 at night and abuse platform has all along broadened. A word with TTE looked nigh impossible where I could request him to change seat of train attendant. There is no flicker of hope that Empire Of Abuse would recede and by the time the train reaches Nagpur at 4.40 AM the deed of the devil cop is done. I have quite often wondered why the cops make the proceedings look repulsive and make the abusive elements take seat next to mine in a society which has less parallels and mired in oscillation. Adventurism of these dirty cops who take pleasure in giving pain again and again over which Home Ministry has least control brings to the fore anecdotes of inconvenience bordering on abuse and abuse alone. 

Gentleman From Thanjavur In Tamil Nadu State Takes A Seat 

Much after Nagpur I take the lower berth and here a gentleman from Thanjavur in Tamil Nadu State In India takes a seat. He had been to a wedding in Nagpur (Maharashtra State) and wished to travel to Chennai and from where few days later he would be taking another train to Thanjavur. I apprise him of discomfort I had been all along with abusive characters having a field day. By the time the train reaches Warangal (Andhra Pradesh State) it is 11.20 and we hope it is no longer a hotbed of naxalites and here naxals and administration reach a clean understanding. The train reached Vijaywada (Andhra Pradesh State) much before designated time and here Mr Nageshwar Rao takes a seat. Mr Nageshwar Rao's Native Place is Vijaywada and settled in Chennai. His wife has taken a seat in another coach and seeks to know who is sitting across aisle. TTE persuades train attendant to vacate the seat and Mr Rao's wife takes the aforementioned seat  From here onwards Mr Rao begins conversation. Conversation is all about change of guard in Andhra Pradesh State/Province and state debt that has seen a steep increase to biggest beneficiaries of electoral bonds that gave a head start to just one wing of political segment. We both agreed electoral bonds would never be probed and those who gained would be biding time in idyllic surroundings. 

Andhra Pradesh State Capital Has To Start From Scratch

As for Andhra Pradesh and State Capital Development even 1 lakh crore in assistance would be less given the fact that it has to start from scratch. We both agreed some leaders across the aisle have been jailed for the mere fact that they spoke truth per se and here courts are scared to give them relief as they can well earn the ire of powers that be. As the convoy was going past various stations with enough jerking one thought when these dilapidated coaches would be replaced so as to make the journey smooth. Old coaches can prove fatal with much known about weak rail tracks. Finally Chennai Rajdhani pulled in Chennai Central Station at 8.40 PM on a Thursday. 

This Train Ride Would Be Recalled For Various Reasons

This train ride would be recalled for a range of reasons that train journey can be tiresome and here high speed trains in our country are a big misnomer. Mistermed and miscalled for the fact that there are no tracks to make them run and even if they get the requisite passage the off and on faulty signaling system can make it tricky. Trains In India run by virtue of the fact that those travelling inside wish the convoy has a polished passage and these trains are dotted with people coming from varied background. Though trains in India carry millions each day the creaking infrastructure can be bothersome. Let the ride be such where narratives after each station be of hope and none to swindle them. Let the ride be for the good of common man and here deliberations with those in vicinity be about measures that should set in fast to check erosion of faith that people by and large have in ruling regime given high price rise and unemployment. High Price Rise And Unemployment have brought down regimes and here policies not wrapped in oscillation should come in. Time is running out and sooner the effective measures come in the better it would be.

Of Delhi's Autos And Those Keeping In Air Tracking Theatre

Of Delhi's Autos And Those Keeping In Air Tracking Theatre

As we came across slew of autos across City Of Delhi they reminded us of commute that could be done with ease. Be it Mr Akbar, Mr Raiqat Ali or Mr Ram Bharose they have lent a helping hand and made the commute all the more endearing. These autos are easy on pocket, find a way out in the rough-and-tumble of Delhi traffic and set a proceeding that is by no means harsh and for all seasons compliant.  Coming to compliances that most have to meet in this nation they are in multiples and can baffle any commoner who is not well versed with matters entailing day to day account. In the thick of upsurge in mobile tariffs came reminders for umpteen times that verification of mobile in usage for over a decade would have to be done if services are not to be discontinued. 

This Verification And That Vacillation Too Arduous

This verification and that vacillation was too arduous task to stick to and countless times one would have visited the store where till now it had not been subjected to any uproar. Getting Aadhar Authentication itself was tiring and troublesome and with a handset as old as some Presidents have had tenure in White House the road ahead looked difficult and bumpy. The assurance came from the store that in due course the call would come and following which you would have to visit the store to get the deed done. That call never came and one was in a state of limbo. For the wi fi the plea and that too on an urgent basis was made that no sooner the password is keyed in please erase the same from your books and that request fell on deaf ears. They countered by maintaining that password has to be kept for their records and these khaki men took pleasure in the fact that they had access to password illustrating their writ and the script they wanted to play out in public gallery. Again you are back to square one where those keeping a tab on what you do and what flights you gave a miss and had no word with the crew and here khaki men decree is enough to stonewall your queries. 

Infinite Aadhar Authentication To OTP Equation

From infinite Aadhar Authentication to OTP Equation these are no child's play and here one wonders when these imprudent men in khaki doubling as administrators would cease their tracking enterprise with sighting or no sighting of battle of inconvenience. The scramble to unravel the tracking record has been there all these years and howsoever hard you may have tried to make dealings look clean the passage has not looked uncluttered. Fluttering would be their endeavour to bring in fresh energy in tracking experiment and this pursuit would win battles hands down.
