Partitions
-Kamleshwar
Penguin books
Rajesh Angal had recommended a book 'Kitne Pakistan' by Kamleshwar. It's English translation, by Ameena Kazi Ansari, 'Partitions' was available. This book talks about the circumstances that led to and impacts that followed the partition of India.
A book of serious nature where history is discussed from the voice of various characters including political leaders, kings, common men, breeze, rivers like Ganga and Jamuna, desert, culture, cities like Hiroshima and Nagasaki, etc. Though the auth claims to be unbiased, I find that at the final court of justice, no hindu king is called to clarify himself, while Mughal kings keep justifying their acts. Very clearly, Aurangzeb has to justify his acts while his brother, a failed Dara Shikoh, is highly pitied upon.
The book also claims that India was always ruled united, be it Mughals, Turks, or any other king who visited / ruled India, and that only the British wanted it to be split to ensure that India be busy with its internal issues. The book also claims that some of the pages of Baburnama were removed, by the English, to make Indians believe that Babur built the Baburi Masjid after demolishing a Hindu temple.
The views of the author, Kamleshwar, flow through the voices of various characters and I prefer to see this as a fiction, rather than a history book. Surprised that Kamleshwar got Sahitya Akademi Award for 'Kitne Pakistan' in 2003.
Btw, Kamleshwar has also written scripts for a couple of Hindi movies and serials including the 'Chandrakanta', which was pulled off air by Doordarshan due to certain controversies.

Wifey: Where's the Nescafe pocket?
I: I had emptied that in the bottle.
Wifey: ??? Why?
I: Just to help you.
Wifey: Did you clean the bottle before filling?
I: Yes. I even washed it.
Wifey: ??? Did you wipe it dry?
I: What? Why?!!!

Early morning, while everyone is sleeping inside the home, you go out to dispatch the garbage. The door unfortunately gets locked from behind. You can either wait silently till the door is opened from inside. Or bang the door and stand silently to the questions of the one who opens the door. It all depends on your courage and the pressure of nature call.
My gorgeous green goggles are missing since seven days. Maybe the world will end.
It's sometimes better to miss someone rather then getting them back in your life.
Yeah. That's the guy. He is no more.

Fox tv goofup - showing the wrong Ravishankar (religious leader) photo while airing the news of the death of Pandit Ravishankar (musician).
People even share their intellect, but never the biscuits and wafers kept near them.

Hey Ganpat, chal chai laa...
Eye meet eye = Love
Yawning meet yawning = MOM and meeting phinished
Yawning is contagious.
If the guy sitting in front of me is going to increase his yawning rate from the current 2 / min, I'm going to go to sleep mode.
By now, the world would have wished Rajnikanth a very happy birthday today.
Now, we give a damn to the Mayan calendar.
Hold on! Hold on!
I don't believe in these stupid superstitions; especially when I wear my favourite yellow pants and pink shirt.
I reserve my loyalty to the old shreader than the new printer. It helps me clear my work more efficiently, without evidence.

Some are connected to their old printer in system and are loitering not able to find their prints.

Rumours are that our printer can print PDF in any given language. I tried English and it was perfect.

One net savvy lady was found searching Angry Bird in the printer screen.

Before paper is replenished in the printer, I think they are going to upgrade the application software in it.

Curiosity kills the printer.

As of now, the printer room in our floor is a better social gathering spot than even the pantry or the washroom.

We got one new huge Canon printer installed in our floor and 27 self styled experts lurking around it.
Folks, please stop explaining me it's features and allow me to take a print.
I object my lawyer, your Honour!

Never felt more luckier.
After a week of 'without' travel, sincerely because I forgot the deadline, I got quarterly train pass today morning; and the ticket checker came in just as I boarded the train.
OMG I did it again. Took the wrong lunch box to office - the filled one.
Someone removed my 6:00 AM morning alarm. Its ok. To err is human.
But they added a 4:38 AM alarm. This is alarmingly inhuman.

Don't blame them for not selecting what is best for the country; blame yourself for not selecting what is best for your country.
