Gujarat

Friday, April 27th, 2012

During a short period of two months, this was my second visit to Gujarat. The direct base being Ahmedabad, and then short trips to Denmal and Balasinor, which my accompanies had been to Denmal and Surat.

Ahmedabad and Denmal was a religious visit while Balasinor was a friend’s marriage.

Gujarat progress is real good, with even Volkswagen show rooms in small towns near Ahmedabad, like the one I saw in Mehsana. Well, that’s the power of Dollar and Pounds (as the car driver said to me).

My Dear Bank

Wednesday, April 4th, 2012

My Dear Bank

I agree that YOU were the pioneer in bringing many changes in the way banks work, especially in India.

But, now, please stop ending sms / emails for visiting your ATM, while you are aware that most of your atm’s are either out of order, old, out of network, out of cash.

Sincerely.

Indian Railways

Wednesday, March 28th, 2012

Ever visited, the Indian Railways @ Nagpur station. So you must be well aware of the rough attitude, non-helping staff at ticketing counters. And yes, the gang of 10+ stray dogs roaming freely at the entire railway station.

Help!!!!

Who cares ?

Monday, March 26th, 2012

Well, Who Cares ? These are the only words coming to mind, in view of what I have been watching here in Nagpur since a week, month, quarter, about 8-9 months in Nagpur after returning from Dubai.

Traffic rule: Who cares, those who are supposed to be on the squares, sit in a shade about 10 feet away from the square, nicely sitting on their bikes and selectively stopping people whom they think will pay them, for not following one or the other law. Even the government owned buses break the law.

Airport: Yeah, its an International Airport (surprised!). But the standards are not even of a local airport. You have to pay parking fees, even if you don’t park your vehicle in their premises.

Footfalls at Malls: These are countable on fingers in Nagpur. And, they themselves don’t care to get proper footfalls in their market place. One mall charges you 15Rs just to park your vehicle, even before you do anything there. And that too not in a proper manner. Another mall outlet, asks you to carry your own plastic bags to fill your purchases, as they will ask you for money to buy plastic bags, as per norms of Government ministry of some sort. And lo, you can’t take your plastic bags inside. You have to keep them outside at security counters, which sometimes does not issue tokens also. And when you stand in long queue and get your bills made, you come out, take the plastic bags, go inside, fill your things, and again come back.

Is anyone reading ?

MIHAN, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Nagpur International Airport, Big Bazaar (Future Group), Empress Mall (Empress City).

Thats life

Tuesday, March 6th, 2012

There is an old saying, ‘When you smile, the world smiles with you; When you cry, you are alone’.

Yes, thats life and its true too. When you are smiling and happy, everyone around you will smile. When you cry, you will be perfectly alone, no one, yes, no one, not a single soul on the earth will be besides you, whatever be the relationship which you share with anyone in the world, you shall be alone when you cry.

Life goes on.

Treasure Hunt

Monday, March 5th, 2012

Sunday, 4th March 2011, Toloba ul Kulliyat il Mumineen, Shantinagar, Nagpur had organized Treasure Hunt, on bike and car.

They had a good response, and I’m sure the response will grow on, if they keep track of timings. About 2 hours we were waiting for the start of the program. We had been called for to report by 7.45am, and our car (no 9) was flagged off at 9.46am.

Overall, it was a well organized function, except that they missed Time Management.

We had to drive fast, for 46 kms drive, covering almost 1/3rd of the ring road encircling nagpur from shantinagar to kille kolar. Then began the treasure hunt, searching for 8 items in the trees.

Good work. Keep it up Toloba.

IRCTC — Good work Keep it UP

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

At some choosen railway stations, IRCTC has come up with dormitories and rooms, both AC and non-AC. I was there in a dormitory for some hours. Its clean, hygienically sound, financially also not too much, and neither too low. Moreover, rooms / dormitories can be pre-booked.

Will surely stop again at IRCTC retiring rooms.

Shocked

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

This is a belated post, dedicated to my belated mother-in-law.

14th of Feb, the day passed off with peace and love in the air. At night, I got a call from my brother-in-law and called to say that my mother-in-law has passed away in Mumbai. I was shocked. After two mins, I again called him to ask, and reconfirm what he had just said.

Minutes later, I called my family and informed them of it, and all of them rushed to my house at night itself.

My mother in law was scheduled to board the flight of ziyarat of Maqamaat Muqaddasah on 15th Feb at 9am. She fell down in Raudat Tahera complex. Last rites were performed on the same day and were finished off by 1am. The rest of the passengers continued on their scheduled ziyarat.

May Allah grant her peace. Ameen.
