#WillYouShave- 3

A true love is a love forever , Happy Anniversary. Mehul wished me planting a kiss on my face. I smiled in pleasure wanting to hug him tight. Happy Anniversary my hubby. Life has been magical with your love all these 20 years. I opened my arms to hold him tight and look deep into his brown eyes same as he did on our first night and I had blushed. We had an arranged marriage that started with a beautiful friendship. He understands my unspoken words and read heart through my eyes. I leaned towards his face to kiss him back and I stopped. Mehul! I shouted and stepped back. Your face looks smelly. My cheek got a touch with yours. It's so rough. I won't kiss you until you get shaved. He laughed hard. Reetu, c'mon don't behave like a kid. It's our anniversary. Does my face matters more to you than my heart that loves you so much?  Who said that, Mehul? I love you inside outside, you see.  I want everyone to like you outside because inside I won’t allow. I wink and get

#WillYouShave - 2

It is our third year together in JUIT where life run chasing the semesters. From the very first day Ravi has been very kind to me. He is the only reliable friend I have made. The entire college runs behind him for his intelligence but I am an exception. I don't run behind him neither he does. We walk together. Proudly, like an epitome of friendship. The entire college fuss and spread rumors that Ravi and I are in a relationship. Well, this is something very usual and I care no damn about their babbles. Sometimes, I wonder why the hell I don't feel anything for this guy. He is an ideal man. Intelligent, decent, generous and well mannered. He has everything that I wish to see in my life partner. Many a times I had caught him looking at me in a different way. I am sure of his feelings. He hasn't said anything and I wish he never say. I don't want to hurt him saying a no. Last week he requested me to join him as his dancing partner for the carnival to which I disapproved

#WillYouShave or Not?

Do you want some tea? Deepti asked. She knew I caught her smiling secretly. Yea sure, Deeps. Do not forget my favorite cookies.  When I was sure she has got into the kitchen I walked tip toed to read the notebook she was blushing at. I flipped pages of the notebook quickly. There were some short stories and quotations written which Deepti had showed me previously but there was something new inside. That page, with so many pink color heart doodles and a peacock feather and gosh! it had a note written too.   ''My Prince Charming, my future husband would be...''   I heard the sound of her footsteps and quickly kept the notebook on the desk as she had left. I didn't want to embarrass her that a little secret of her got disclosed just now. I plugged headphone to hide my excitement. ‘’A day without you is like a year without rain’’. Hey Deeps, are you in love? I asked her at once sipping cardamom tea and biting cookies. Love? Yes, I am in love with my dream hubby. S

Montu Ke Saath India Bolega

#AbMontuBolega Chak De India! In the recent years India has stabilized itself as a productive globalized nation. It has double stripped itself with arms, emanations, progress in research and science, set up of multinational companies and many more things that makes it a 'modern India' .   We feel proud of our country's success that has left almost no challenge unbeatable but that proud feeling doesn't stay longer as soon as we step out in the streets of India .  On one hand India is known for it's equality in diversity, rich culture and tradition, food and spices, history and historical monuments on the other hand it is becoming a death trap because of increasing pollution. According to WHO's survey , out of 20 most polluted cities in the world, 13 are in India. How shameful is that!  Cinema halls, multiplex, restaurants, shopping malls all of them are cleaned and well managed. We love to visit these places again and again because of their cleanliness a

A Help Finding Toilet For Babli

As a nation we are making progress with the advancement in technology, enriching economy, living standards and education. We are touching skies in this competitive era and accumulating all possible luxuries to live life at its fullest unaware of a serious issue to look upon and work over it. Toilet and sanitation are something we consider for granted because we haven't been deprived of it. It's sad to say that over 597 million people are still facing the problem of Open Defecation .  The continuous practice of open defecation and lack of sanitation are proving to be the major reasons behind the rapid spread of fatal infectious diseases among the children and elders like cholera, jaundice, typhoid, hepatitis, etc. with such serious attacks leading to death of many people. Open defecation is a threat to girls and women for they have to wait until it becomes dark. Many a times while they're out at night for defecation they become a victim of molestation, being raped whic

Dabur Chywanprash, My Immunity Booster

Children are the pride and joy of every parent and every home. Their laughter, naughty acts and over to that, their innocent smiles bring immense joy to every heart. Everyone wants to be with them to see their lost childhood in their activities, to play with them and smile effortlessly without a reason. Elders and parents bless their love and care and play a great role in upbringing of a healthy baby. Unfortunately, those charms of a happy and a healthy baby weren't in me . A serious attack of pneumonia overtook me when I was five. It left an adverse effect on my body during my growth years. I often had cough congestion, fever, pale and weak body. My parents consulted to many doctors but all the remedies were with short-lived effect. It was really embarrassing and saddening for me that I couldn't play with my cousins who visited us and relatives used to discuss my health.  Unlike other children I wasn't allowed to eat ice-creams, banana and other milk products because

Spotlight: The Ekkos Clan by Sudipto Das

The Ekkos Clan  by   Sudipto Das The Blurb   "The Ekkos Clan" is the story of Kratu’s search for the killers of his family, his own roots and the mystery behind his grandmother’s stories. It’s the fascinating account of Kubha and the basketful of folklore she inherited from her ancestors. The eventful lives of Kubha and her family span a hundred years and encompass turbulent phases of Indian history. The family saga unfurls gradually, along with Kubha’s stories, through the three main characters – Kratu Sen, a grad student at Stanford, Kratu’s best friend Tista Dasgupta, and Afsar Fareedi, a linguistic palaeontologist . Afsar hears about Kubha’s stories from Kratu in a casual conversation, but she figures that these stories are not meant to be mere bed time tales – they contain rich linguistic fossils and layers of histories. In a bizarre incident Kratu miraculously survives an attempt on his life. His sister and uncle had not be
