Clean Streets
They clean our roads and streets everymorning so that we can feel the utilisation of our taxes to govt. But we ignore that with lessor taxes there are much higher levels of facilities given to these people elsewhere in the world. Center - pls organise yourself..Thursday, November 25, 2010

Towering Inferno - Fire at our Apartment - Rajendra Vihar - A311....Story So far :- We were sleeping and it was 1 am . I felt i could hear my door bell ringing in my dreams..only to realise that it actually was..thanks to my alert Wife !! Preeti shook me up and said " check who is ringing the bell at such late hours.." . I went to the main door and peeped from the Eye Hole. Nobody there !!! suddenly the Intercom rang !!!! I felt a goblet of saliva going down my throat because i had watched AAHAT on Sony TV before going to sleep....
I picked up the phone and a Lady who was panting very hard told me through her abrupt breaths that there is a fire in my apartment !!!! That's it.. I panicked and ran around my house to search for the source. Preeti had continued on the phone from there and informed me that it wa not in our flat but in A311...2 floor directly abouve us !!!. " pack your valuables" I shouted and took my camera, Full pant where there was my purse and i tried to carry my Sony Playstation 3 but it was overwhelmingly put down by my good wife with just one stare....She had caught hold of Khushi and sped down towards our car. Suddenly i felt as if I could not lock my door !!! It was just fear as we could see people running down the stairs in large nos . Gathering my senses i sped down and reached my car. We put everything in the car and I went near the site from where we could safely see the horrifying sight. Incidentally the Fire Station Wagon had arrived timely and they were able to bring the fore under control very soon. I was not able to use flash as that would have diverted the fire towards me !!!!. I caught the action from behind a car. You can see that the grill has bent with heat and it was more horrifying to see the inferno cause such collosal damage...Shortly the Window AC fell creating a fresh wave of panic but it was brought under control as well. Went back to sleep but couldn't as the situation was very scary and it kept running in our head that we leave the Refrigerator running when we leave our homes for work. What if !!!!!!!!???????

Lush green jungles, Rocks with contrasting hues & color and effects of nature and water evident from the marks on them, Flowing water....Best part..You are looking at the Chhattisgarh border ( 15 kms away is Dantewada { site of massacare of 76 CRPF jawans by rebels } )...chilling..brrrr...however, life is as normal here as it can be. That was the beauty of the place and we came across lots of visitors and tourists who were obviously oblivious of these staggering facts.

Ramagiri police out post - Locals say " The rebels surrounded and fired at the police center. There were 2 policemen inside. 1 fled while the other was bit drunk. The 2nd officer pleaded the rebels to at least give him his motorcycle back. The rebels beat him up saying you dont fear for your life. The officer told them that he had newly purchased the bike and wants it back. Infuriated the keys were given to the officer who fled from the scene like sehwag's hair ! The rebels then planted the mine and blew up the place." Shortly after this the Police headquarters of Koraput was raided by about 600 rebels and arms and ammo enough for 10 years was stolen !! God only knows what is the truth but the story was amusing.
I was standing and having the delicious oil free dosas at this local village breakfast center and i was not even aware that Maoists had blown up the police out post just 7 Kms from here a few days back. It is said that dosas cooked on wood fire is better than on gas. I tasted to believe it. This dude was really amazing.
Sitting on the doorway of a moving train with 37 tunnels and innumerable bridges (with no edges!!) at 6 am and believe me .... you do get your moments. Train was moving very fast and even though with a shutter speed of 1/500 the time to change it to 1/1000 was not there. Otherwise i could not have got that 2 sec yellow-golden tinge. So it was a moment for me worth the efforts.
