What I have done or not yet!

There is a wave going in Nepalese blog world to tell the world what the individual blogger has done or has never done in his life. The trend was first started by Tajim http://blog.tajim.com.np/ (it seems as Wagle http://wagle.com.np/ and Aakar http://www.aakarpost.com/ also say in their posts), and now followed by many including me. You can read other bloggers’ take on the topic in their respective blogs in given links.

As I see Tajim’s blog today, I can see that he had very simple things in mind and his post was written with not much fanfare but it seems that we other bloggers while emulating him have tried to give some more color to the topic. All credit should go to Tajim for this innovative idea, (to me, it was really innovative) and was very nice to read other people’s views about their ‘nevers’ and etc. Now, I am joining the bandwagon here.

Before I start cribbing something on the point, let me borrow some words from a blog which I visited for the first time today. I saw through my facebook page that there is a fellow blogger maintaining blog at http://sadhanasharma.blogspot.com/ and I have borrowed her words to start my blog with.

“I am while browsing the blogs of my co-bloggers, I read this post published by Aakar today. I also found that not only Aakar but also Tajim (Actually, it was Tajim’s witty idea of confession), Anbika http://anbika.com/i-have-never/ and Dinesh Wagle (the same wagle whom I have referred above) have posted this type of confessions in their respective blogs.

All these posts inspired me to have something like that with my descriptions. My heartily thanks goes to Tajim, Aakar, Anbika and Dinesh Wagle, for inspiring me to write this (and to Sadhana Sharma, says Chamatkaribaba). As everyone else, I am also borrowing the titles from Tajim’s post”

Above in Quote has been borrowed from: http://sadhanasharma.blogspot.com/2010/08/i-have.html

Now, below starts my story:

1. 1. Seen an Ocean

Yes, I have seen the Ocean, or you can call them seas. I am in India from 2003 and first time saw sea/ocean in 2005 November in Kerala, Kochin City. The sea beach was not great. I had very little time to visit as I had gone to Kerala to participate in one Moot Court Competition by representing my University. Thereafter, in 2005 December-January, 2006, I went to ICCR Tour and could visit Marina Beach in Chennai, and some other Beach in Tamilnadu Chennai, and then in Pondicherry (two beaches – one sandy and one rocky in main town), and then in Kanyakumari meetings of Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and Dirty Bay of Bengal, as we were told. I think in the same year 2006, when we had gone to Tirupati Balaji Temple in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh; I, along with my friends Kul Chandra and Ashok Kahar decided to go to Chennai, Tamilnadu and took four hours long train journey from Tirupati to Chennai and went again to Marina Beach.

In my original post, I had forgotten this incident that In 2008 October, when I was at Tie-School in Bombay (some kind of internal training for new joinees in the company), I saw Arabic Ocean again from Gateway of India just standing in front of Taj which was attacked after a month!

From 2006, I could go to beach again only in 2009 November when I went to Goa with my friends from Pune, Bombay, Bangalore and I from Hyderabad. There I visited Calangute, Vagator, Anjuna and Baga Beaches (all north beach). Again, in 2010 March, When I went to Goa, I visited many beaches from both North and South. In north, again, Anjuna, Baga, Vagator, Candolim, and Calangute and in South Colva, Agonda and Palolem. Thereafter I got a chance to visit Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh in July, 2010, where I could see R.K (Radha Krishna) Beach and Rishi Konda (I am not so sure about this Name) Beach. And, recently in first week of August, I went to Jagganath Puri Temple in Orissa, and went Puri and Konark Beaches golden beach Private beach of my resort, and Chandra Bhaga Beach. All were nice but I found Orissa beaches less interesting. So, to conclude, I have seen Ocean/Seas – Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea and Black watered Bay of Bengal.

Every time, I go to beach; I feel so good. I feel so great seeing the calm beach and the tides over there. Walking on the beach in the morning or in the evening is immensely satisfying to me.

1. 2. Been to a swimming pool

I have been to swimming pool. Yea, many times but never gone inside it. No, Never. I do not know how to swim. So, wherever I go where there is Swimming Pool, mostly in Hotels and Resorts. I just go near it, see the blue water (because of blue painting of bottom of pool), and feel good and come back. So, I have gone to swimming pool but never taken a dip into water.

1. 3. Flown Overseas

Yes, I should say. I first took plane journey in 2003 when I had to come to India. I still remember that day. I took Indian Airlines from Kathmandu to New Delhi and then from New Delhi to Hyderabad by Jet Airways. There was a two hours gap in between these two flights in Delhi and I utilised this time by going from International Airport to Domestic Airport. After that, I have travelled New Delhi – Kathmandu route two three times as I rarely go to Kathmandu. To go home, my most preferred destination is New Delhi – Bagdogra. When I have to talk of flying overseas (by overseas! I understand foreign country), I have travelled from Delhi to capital City of another country last year in 2009 July, which for the time being is a secret and will disclose when time comes. So, to conclude, foreign trip by air is YES!

1. 4. Traveled on the roof of a moving bus

Yes, Of Course many times. I remember Wagle’s words on this. He has said something similar that if you are in Nepal, how you have not travelled on the open roof of the bus? So far as I remember, I have travelled on open roof of bus many many times and started travelling from way back in 1990-91 when I was only 6-7 years old. What to do when Nepal was not and is not so developed and transportation is not still so easy in many places. When I had to go to my paternal grandfather’s home in Topagachhi, Jhapa from my home town Damak, I had to travel many times on open roof of bus.

Among those travels, I remember a recent one- recent only that I did 2 years back in 2008, May. I completed my University education and was going home from Hyderabad via New Delhi. Just finished student’s life and did not have job and no money, so decided to take bus from Delhi to Kathmandu but get down in Narayanghat/Narayangadh in Nepal and take bus from there to Kakarvitta, Jhapa. I got a ticket from Delhi and as planned and reached Narayanghat but was a very hectic journey. Then, there I knew that there was a strike going on in Eastern Nepal for the past 7 -10 days. The strike was not political. Something happened that one guy was knocked down by a vehicle and his relatives asked for 25 lakhs or something compensation, which the vehicle owner refused and the relatives and villagers of deceased started protesting and did not allow any transportation. When I reached there at 5 PM in the evening, I realized that. There were many people waiting for the buses which go to east amid unconfirmed reports that the strikes has been called off. Finally, it was confirmed news that strike has been called off and buses started appearing at 11 PM in the night. All buses were full and crowded and refused to stop and finally, a bus that stopped which was going to the place called ‘Kanchanpur’ that was 200kms far from my house and that was a far distance. Still, I took that bus along with many people and I got a seat on the open roof. It started raining in the night and I had to cover myself by some plastics in that night. J Sounds so cool! Huh! Though the bus was supposed to go till ‘Kanchanpur’, next day, it could crawl till ‘Lahan’ only some 100kms from ‘Kanchanpur’. Again, 11 AM next day, I caught another bus and again got seat only on the rooftop and reached my hometown at 5PM in Damak. Now, U say me can we live in Nepal without travelling like this?

1. 5. Never Jumped out of a plane or a bridge (Bungee **Scary**)

I have never done this. I love to do bungee though I am scared, I know. I think I can gather all my courage and do bungee jumping. When I was in Goa, I wanted to do some water sports, which they are popularly called there. But, it was expensive the one where you have parachute kind of thing on your back and you will be up in the air and you will be tied with a boat by a long rope and you move in the direction of boat. It was of short duration and was expensive. I am looking to do for some para gliding but lack of training, even basic and not so suitable opportunities till date.

Regarding jumping out of a plane, I wish I never have to do, and have never done before.

1. 6. Never touched Snow – the real one, not that which is made in a fridge.

This one thing I have not done yet. Had never seen natural snow, and touched it. Wish I can do it soon.

1. 7. Seen a 3D Movie

Never. Not yet. I do not know what threeD movie is. I presume movie with special effects where they give you special spectacles. Is it? I am not sure. I do not even know which movie is 3D and which is not. When I was in Kathmandu this time in June, my brother was telling me that there is 4D Hall/Theatre being constructed and technology is so developed in Nepal. I did not understand but just said ohhhh….  J

1. 8. Seen an Imax Movie

What is IMAX movie? Is it movie in IMAX theatre? Or are there special IMAX movies? I have seen movies in India’s good theatres like IMAX, Inox, PVR, Big Cinemas, and Cinemax etc etc. But, if there is something called Imax Movie, then, I may not have. U decide, please.

1. 9. Been on a roller coaster

Last year, in 2009 July, I was with my friend. She and I did small roller coaster ride. She was naturally afraid of that. That was a very small one mainly intended for kids. N then, I saw another, a big and long roller coaster. I wished she and I had done that but she was scared and I did not go alone. This second one was amazing a long one and from top of hills to down, and frankly speaking looked little scary to me as well. J

1. 10. Never Smoked

Unfortunately, I have smoked. I have smoked regular cigarettes, local bidis and sometimes cigarettes filled with ganja/hashish/marijuana, or whatever you call it those local stuffs you get in village. BUT, But, I qualify to be non-smoker. To my record, I had last smoked may be 20-24 months back. Or maybe 3 years back. I have never bought any of those things for me. It’s only when I get free of cost J and if my fellow friends are smoking……….just for a style. Just to try one ‘puff’ or ‘two’….and I know and suggest that Smoking is bad for health. Just stay away!

1. 11. Never gone Serious Trekking

Never. Never got any such opportunity. If you can call it a trekking, when I went to visit Dalhousie in Himachal Pradesh, something like 15-20 Kms we walked in forests and hills for half day, if that qualifies to be trekking but I think I have not seriously trekked anywhere.

1. 12. Never visited a dentist

Not for me. But, I visited Positive Dental Hospital with my flat mate Laxman Kumar for his check up few months back.

1. 13. Been to a Gym

Yes. First time in 2001 or 2002 in Kathmandu, somewhere near Purano Baneshwor. There is another funny story how I joined there but this post is already so long that I will write that some other day in some other post. Later, I joined one gym in Hyderabad 2003-2005, and from 2003-05, I was going to my University’s gym also on ‘on and off basis’. Later, I got a small lump of muscle on my right hand, which I still have sometimes (sometimes, it appears and disappears) , and as per Doctor’s advice, stopped lifting anything heavy.

1. 14. Seen a Lion or Tiger

I have seen something in JawalaKhel Zoo. I am not sure it was lion or tiger. And then, I think, I am not so sure that I saw something in Jawaharlal Neharu Zoological Park in Hyderabad in 2003 when I had visited that at that time. I think, again not sure, in 2007 May, when I was in Nainital Tour, I saw something- either lion or tiger. So, whatever was/is there is JawalaKhel Zoo that I have seen for sure.

1. 15. gone to any serious forest/jungle

Yes, I have been too. In childhood, we used to collect wooden stuffs from Chuli Jungle in eastern Nepal, Ilam (Mahabharata range/ Chure Bhawar Chhetra) as wood was the source of fuel for cooking. Later, I stayed with my maternal grandparents in the place called Puhatubari, Chandragadhi, Jhapa and the home was just a kilometer far from deep Charali Forests. I used to go to jungle for wood, grass for animals, picnics, and as a cowherd with many many cows in the morning and used to come back in the evening with them. I miss that time when my friend Sibu Bogati and I used to chase many many monkeys—small to big, baby to parents and we loved chasing those groups of 100 to 200 monkeys. Those monkeys never attacked back and we were never afraid.

Now, if I see one monkey, I am not that confident of saving myself from it than before J

1. 16. Applied for US Diversity VISA

Yes, many times, may be 3-4 times previously. Last year, I did not apply. I was just lazy and was in Goa when it was the last day and one of my friends, Kul Chandra kept on constantly calling me, reminding me and saying me that I should fill. But, from this year, I have promised to myself that I will fill DV form each year from this year onwards till the time I do not get any kind of Visa to US or Nepal disqualifies after sending more than 50,000 people, whichever happens earlier.

1. 17. Gone more than 6 months in any serious day job

Yes. The work I am doing now is my first job in life. I am working in the same organization for the past more than 2 years, from June 9, 2008.

1. 18. Never seen any Himesh Reshammiya Movie (this one for Bollywood Fans)

I have never done this. I have heard his songs. Some of them are nice and were hits at that time. I know he has acted in some movies but I have not watched and will not watch unless someone gives me CD or movie. If I get from source, I may watch it.

1. 19. Never been to any underground concerts

Underground concerts?? Never heard. I have only heard something on open ground, or on stadium or on big auditorium. I have attended two concerts in my life- one by Indian Ocean’s concert in my university in 2004-05; another was Rock Yatra by 1974 AD in Dasarath Stadium in 2001-02. N I loved that concert of 2001-02. I can say I grew up watching that concert. Another concert was there in my University in 2006-07 by JAL BAND from Pakistan. I did not attend it but went to friend’s place in Hyderabad City. I, now, wish I should have attended that.

1. 20. Been to a discotheque

Twice or thrice, I have been to such places. Once in Kathmandu, and rest in India. These places never entice me. And I really do not understand why people go there, why I went there. I do not think I ever go again to these kinds of places………frankly speaking, waste of money J

1. 21. Never been to top floor of any high rise building

High Rise? How many floor building? 6-7? I went to one hotel/restaurant located at 25^th floor but it was not top of that building and view outside looked nice from windows. J

I have been to top of only those buildings which have 6-7 floors.

1. 22. Met a Chinese

As a passerby, may be many. But, I had one Chinese friend in India called John. He is my facebook friend now. He was very interesting and his speaking way was funny like all Chinese!

1. 23. Seen an actual theater play

Never. This is something I want to see.

1. 24. Drank Beer

Yes. Sometimes. In office parties. Not only beer, I have tasted other stuffs also, different brand and varieties. But, I find lassie (Indian sweet curd), Tea and Lemon Water or Sarbat or anything non-alcoholic much much better than these alcoholic products. To borrow another blogger’s words, “I cannot imagine why people like to drink such bitter thing”

1. 25. Been on TV Camera

In 2001-02, there was a competition by UNICEF to write about how to make world better place for youth. I also wrote something and participated in that competition and was shortlisted among 5 finalists. If I had become first, I would go to New York with PM Sher Bahadur Deuba at that time to participate in some UN Conference and to tell about youth’s problems. But, I became second is what Sushma (who hosted “Sathi Sanga Manka Kura” Programme at that time) told to my brother Rewati through telephone when I was not in home. They had taken short two minutes interviews of us – 5 finalists and shown by Nepal Television after “AAth bajeko Samachar” which I could not see myself as I did not have TV at that time in my room in Kathmandu. But, many of my friends and relatives watched it and remembered the incident. I could never watch. In my University, when I was in Hyderabad, local TV Channels came sometimes and interviewed us – foreign students regarding how, and why we came to India. They did shooting and must have telecasted in their local ‘Telugu’ language but I never saw. So, at least faced camera twice or thrice but have never seen my acting! J

1. 26. Never had a Boyfriend

Yes, I never had boyfriend. If you talk of girlfriend, Yes, I have a one! J Who is she?? Is something I can hear around now.

1. 27. Never been admitted in a hospital.

Thanx God!

India and Foreign Currency Conversion

The Post is little longer. U can take many rest while reading it.

This is not any apocryphal story. Let me put in this blog some stories which represent the hard times that people face in this country. One of the story that represent our hard times in India is getting foreign exchange from Banks. I am writing about some experience faced by my friend and me in recent years.

These are some of the old experiences that I had around 2007 and 2008. In 2009 also, one of my friends told that he had the same experience like me and my other friend way back in 2007 and 2008. So, I am writing this piece as my experience in India regarding the problems of converting Indian Currency to Foreign Exchange- US Dollars.

In Connaught Place New Delhi, almost all the shops there are brokers for foreign exchange. They are, in my opinion, authorized people to deal with forex. The rate of these people will be slightly different from the nationalized banks has to offer. They buy US Dollar by giving you less amount than nationalized bank has to give; and charge you little higher Indian Currency if you want to buy US Dollar. So, You may think why not to go to Banks? – nationalized banks and private banks where you get slightly better rates?

Same we thought- back in 2007, also in 2008 and again in 2009. However, we fail to understand why these banks are reluctant to sell USD to you. Why do they need so many documents from you so that at last, you give up the idea of buying/selling forex? If legally, these many documents are required, then, are these people who buy and sell forex in all those blocks around Connaught place are doing business illegally? These people are not doing business in the dark. They are buying and selling USD in open market and does not seem to be doing any illegal business.

Then, it must be that our government has such an archaic rules which can not be understood by general public. I tell you the story of 2007 and at that time in Pune, we had to sell around 400 USD. We approached a shop dealing with forex. They easily gave us Indian Currency, took Xerox of our Passports, and took two print-outs of the receipts. They signed one of the receipts and gave to us. They retained another receipt with noting our passport number there and issuing country.

That’s all. The process was over by then.

Later, in Delhi, in 2008, we approached to Punjab National Bank in Connaught Place, New Delhi. Since my friend was leaving to her country, she had to change some only 2000 Indian currencies. Punjab National Bank gave us a simple answer that since the amount is small; you better convert it in Airport itself. We understood that it can not happen here now and headed to Indira Gandhi Airport, New Delhi. There inside, after security check up, it was converted. Interestingly, if you convert your Indian money to US Dollar in Airport, you have to pay much higher amount for each dollar. And if you convert Dollar to Indian currency, you get much less Rupees. And that day, I realized how difficult it will be to buy and sell USD from Indian Banks in India.

But, that is an iceberg of a problem- real problem that happened in 2009 makes you realize really how difficult the problem is.

Now, let me tell you the problem of my friend that was faced in 2009. He has account with Indian Bank, State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, ICICI Bank and HSBC Bank.

This is interesting to mention here that he has his savings and credit card accounts in so many banks as he will be asked by almost all the banks whether he has account with that bank. Let me start a story with an ICICI Bank’s one of the branches in Cannaught Place in New Delhi.

There, he made a good effort to explain his problems and what services he expected from the bank employees. And, those bank employees made no efforts even to hear him. The bank was so crowded, and there were many people and the voices of my friend just created another cacophony in that group. Shortly, he gave up and opened the door and walked out.

There are many banks in Cannaught Place and my friend simply did not seem to be worried by the service of ICICI bank. If not this bank, there is another was in his mind.

Now, on the way, He saw another bank- he does not remember the name, either it was Standard Chartered bank or something called American Express. He tried to enter and on the gate the security guard stopped him. He thought they wanted to frisk him for security purpose. But the guard asks him why he wants to go inside. He answered for what he had come there.

The Security guard told him he can not get this service there, and immediately noted some Forex broker’s address on the paper and handed to my friend. The guard told to name of the bank, and told my friend to say that he has been referred by that bank-may be Standard Charted Bank. My friend got surprised, stunned and left the place fuming, and tearing that piece of paper. He could see thousands of brokers on the way and did not need any reference and address from anyone, much less from security guards of a bank where he was not allowed to enter.

And then, he moved. On the way, he saw a less crowded and completely calm place called ‘South Indian Bank’. What is there in the name if he can get service there? He entered and said what he wanted. He was asked whether he has bank account with this South Indian Bank. The answer was no and they also said that no, he can not get forex service there if he has not bank account there. He was asked in which bank he has account with? He replied, ‘State Bank of India’ among many banks with which he has accounts. He was told to walk little ahead, and there he will see ‘State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur’ which is one of the many subsidiaries/group banks of State controlled ‘State Bank of India’. He obeyed. He went to State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur and explained the case. He was asked whether he has bank account with State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur and he replied that he has with ‘State Bank of India’. He was nicely advised to go ‘State Bank of India’ which is just 100 meters away from that place. He again obeyed.

He went to that bank ‘State Bank of India’ and found that that particular bank branch is for NRI Services. The bank served only to those customers which have bank account with that particular branch. He was told other two bank branches of ‘State Bank of India’ which were around Cannaught Place and was suggested to go there. Now, he succumbed little, and gave up the plan to visit those branches of ‘State Bank of India’. But, while walking around, he saw another bank ‘Indian Bank’ with which also he had bank account. He thought to give a last shot, and went inside, and explained his problem. The bank told that since my friend has bank account with Indian Bank in some other branch in Hyderabad, it takes minimum two to three days to get the services. My friend was told that he needs to submit his Visa and Passport, reasons for foreign currency requirements in one application. The request should be routed through his branch in Hyderabad, his branch in Hyderabad should be convinced that he really requires foreign currency and once the branch in Hyderabad approves the release of foreign currency, then, he will get it after two three days from Delhi Branch of Indian Bank.

The explanation frightened my friend, he came out and just on his right, there was a foreign currency dealer. He gave his Indian rupees-a thick bunch of money and received around 9 to 10 US 100 Dollar Notes.

He was really amazed, really frustrated and all smiling moved ahead to Delhi Metro Station in Palika Bazar, as I saw him on that day.

(I will write my experience of Nepal in relation to foreign currency conversion after few days.)

Part II-But of What?

[Some part of this post was written on 31^st December and has been completed now and just today. So, it contains at the end, more than what exactly was intended on that day. I hope that you all will enjoy.]

 

In my part I blog, I was talking at the end, my room and thin blanket. Let us see my room first. How does it look like? It looks very dirty, that is sure as I am very lazy to clean and not only me but my room members are also too lazy, and some even more lazy/lazier than me. It’s okay; it is their human rights to be lazy in a same fashion like mine. One more thing, these days, I am not in my regular room. Regular room-I mean, my usual University Hostel Room, which is my not only whole world but an entire universe and that remain always dirty occupied by a single member-me. Now and these days, my university is closed and is My University Hostel and we are not allowed to stay in that Hostel Room. So, I am like a refugee and staying with some of my kind hearted and very very helpful friends like Prashant, Kul Chandra and Ashok. There we live, many many people, about a dozen these days and very amicably and in a very friendly manner, till I am writing this another crap.

 

Now, let’s look at what we do regularly in our room. We never forget to do two very great and important things in our room. We regularly eat and quite happily sleep.

 

We sleep these days like animal and sometimes, even more happily than some of these animals in this world. We live a very carefree life though we know that many challenges are waiting for us.

 

I had made a reference about sleeping and thin blanket on my earlier post in part I of this blog, if u remember rightly. Most of you might be wearing thick woolen clothes and must be sheltering inside Nepali Sirak or some Chinese or foreign blankets that too under a very thick blanket. U must do it. If you are from delhi, u might be reeling under 2-3 Degree Celsius or if u are from kathmandu, temperature might be there around 5 degree Celsius and what about London and Astana????? I am sure that these all places have nice and pretty winter with a temperature that I personally like.

 

But, Dude, the story is different here. The people who are born and brought up here say that this year, it is cooler than all previous year. Might be! I can not feel it as last year, I had felt it hot and so, I do feel this year. Let me tell u situation here that, a normal cotton shirt from morning to evening will work as more than a blanket if you stay inside house. If you go out in the day time, you feel very hot. This is a place which is different and so, generally is South India.

 

So, thin blanket in the night serves all the purpose for what it is required here and that too switching on the fan. We need to switch on the fan before we sleep, and that is the story of this place.

 

The place is like this and there is nothing good or bad about the place as hot n cold environment is all about Nature. People stay here irrespective of what kind of temperature is here and so, I lived in this place for last five years and that experience is always good to remember.

 

While, I started writing this post on 31^st December, I had some certain other issues in my mind but today, when I am about to complete this, there is nothing that I remember that I wanted to write. So, if I make u feel bored coz of this incessant talk about this place, u just need to forgive me.

           Before, I part with his blog entry, I am sincerely thankful to Yogesh, a learned Senior brother, (for law graduates, two lawyers are always ‘learned brothers’) for taking his some time off from his rigorous study life and making some comments on my blog. I know, these days, hardly anyone reads me and even few bother to encourage by commenting. In such a draught situation, the efforts of Yogesh Sir were very encouraging to me and wish him and all the readers a great success in life. Keep on Reading!!!!!

Random Feelings without dream

I have NO Dream
Sounds pessimistic? Right. Of Course, let’s talk about pessimism sometimes. Let’s talk about dark things in life. Life is not only spring; it passes through many many cold winters. You tell me, are not you felt bored, sad, unhappy, and angry in life? You have man, you must have. Then, why do not you talk about those things?

Something politically motivated!!!!

I have not written anything in my blog so many days. So, feeling like I have missed out something.
I am somewhere far from my temporary-but-usual place. People call it Hi-Tech City. Yes, Hi-Tech City of Hyderabad. Flooded with fancy buildings, fancy offices with fancy names. It has given job to many, status to many, and of course, quick bucks to many. Hi-Tech City in Hyderabad is a part of changing Hyderabad to Cyberabad.

A Nepali Gazal-Just a try.

If you are reading my blog for quite a long time, You know that how happy I could be if I write or read Gazal in Nepali. I love my language, literature and specially Gazals written in Nepali Language. It’s not my first attempt to write Post in Nepali.

Seeing off somebody in Airport

This is always a difficult task. I had to go this time IGI (Indira Gandhi International Airport, New Delhi) to see off some of my friends who went back to their country after completeing their various
studies in India. We all knew that they had to go and there was no alternative. It was sure, and certain that oneday the date of departure arrives and we were supposed to act in a way the situation demands.
