Jaanam Samjha Karo!

“नहीं कहा जो कभी, ख़ामख़ा समझती है

जो चाहता हूँ मैं कहना कहाँ समझती है?

सब तो कहते थे ताल्लुक में इश्क़ के अक्सर 

आँख को आँख, ज़बाँ को ज़बाँ समझती है।”😳

The Great Indian Highway Hurdle!

As the post suggests, it's quute a pain taking a roadtrip in the UP hinterlands....

It's truly a maze.. .full of hurdles , potholes, broken roads, incomplete road overbridge, railways crossings , barricades, unever roads that pot out of nowhere, massive traffic jams, no traffic management, dust globes everywhere, animals, folks, unruly traffic and what not! 

Each trip is more of an adventure and it's such a relief to reach your destination without a broken suspension of either your car or your back!

Ye darr Accha hai.... :)

ख़ौफ़ तो "आवारा कुत्ते" भी मचा देते हैं, 

लेकिन दहशत हमेशा "शेर" की ही होती हैं !!

Lockdown Weekend!

 

I have been so used to the weekend Lockdown that when it was done away with this weekend....I actually had to take a Monday off just to feel like a 2 Day off !! :)

Great time to hit Refresh!

I have obviously got ample time and while i was i thought there was a great opportunity for the Civic Agencies to use this time to make up for all the wrongs

If all proper precautions can be taken to prevent this Corona Virus then there could have been so much that could be achieved!

Imagine..all drains could be de-silted...everything flushed out..garbage, plastic, toxic waste.. it would solve the Water Logging problem to a major extent especially with the impending monsoons

All roads could be repaired/relaid etc etc

All electrical lines could be repaired and shifted to underground trenches,which could otherwise be quite challenging

All parks and public utilities could undertake major renovation/up-gradation

All Railway Coaches could be cleaned, full stripped and de-sanitized.... all the curtains, laundry and seats in the Coaches to be cleaned/washed, replaced/repaired
All electrical items too
Same for all railway stations and tracks.... All Stations are ridden with rats etc..it could be a great time to catch all of them and plug in the loop holes so that the danger with rat disease doesn't arise again

All State Transport Vehicles/Buses can do the same!

So on and so forth

To top it off the Govt would anyways be paying all these daily workers anyway during this lock-down! It would also prevent/abstain the daily wage workers to stay where they are and not return to their native villages. It will be easier to get them any food/medication etc as well if needed.
Solves a lot of issues with one single decision.

But then All necessary precautions has to be taken else this can backfire rather quickly with even a single case of Infection among the workers! and India isn't known to handle hygiene nicely ever!

Food for Thought!

Reset Refresh!

Aptly Titled!!

Re-Set Re-Fresh

Re-Design Re-Build Re-Claim!


Such has been this year so far!

It stared with a bang and boy-O-boy why am I not surprised!

I was quite anxious when we were all locked up inside our houses on the 22nd march, wasn't quite sure as to what/how it would be for so long.... but i was looking forwrd to be just home devoid of all worries....

Never had I ever...thought that the New FY will begin with a Big Zero!

Never had I ever...travelled on the First Day of the Year!

Its been a Lock-down since 22nd March and it continues.... Never had i ever thought i will be home with no work and enjoy it too!

Its a blessing spending time with kids..to see Araddhya attend his Online Classes...clarifying the simplest of doubts...just being around!
to witness Anveer's antics around the house ..his mischievousness with everyone in the House...his prompt responses..his funny faces....everything.

I am getting so used to this that it scares me ...what happens when all this over... and i have to return to Work again!

I will be doing the same 10 to 7.30 drills and be hell worried about everything beyond my control!

I like it this way...this has beyond doubt changed me and my future plans.

2020

Big Changes underway.....

As anticipated.....
