The winter & the blankets

Last year during the same time we had lot of problems travelling because of fog. Therefore it was considered appropriate to travel a day in advance. On 24th December we left for Etah. Shahid and Anuj joined from Delhi. Dharmendra joined from Mathura. Luckily there was no fog and we reached by 930 PM at Etah.

Sudhir could not reach as he was indisposed. Babloo and Sajan joined from Etah and we reached Patiyali at 1030. Sajid bhai came over and we started for Gathaura. A village where access is difficult and no one bothers to go.We distributed blankets here and then went to Rikaira, Nagla Dular, Nagla Tikuri, RamTal and Nagla Mehari to help around 600 people with blankets.

Thanks are due to Karunendra, Sanjeev and Anuj for contributing the blankets. Next day we also went to Fatehpur and helped a few needy there as well.

Return was timely as we reached Delhi at 1030 PM. Thanx to every one who was a part of this journey.

कैसे चुपचाप मर जाते हैं कुछ लोग यहाँ
जिस्म की ठंडी सी
तारीक सियाह कब्र के अंदर!
न किसी सांस की आवाज़
न सिसकी कोई
न कोई आह, न जुम्बिश
न ही आहट कोई

ऐसे चुपचाप ही मर जाते हैं कुछ लोग यहाँ
उनको दफ़नाने की ज़हमत भी उठानी नहीं पड़ती !

गुलज़ार

That is how it is.

कितना आसान लगता था
ख़्वाब में नए रंग भरना
आसमाँ मुट्ठी में करना
ख़ुश्बू से आँगन सजाना
बरसात में छत पर नहाना

कितना आसान लगता था

जिंदगी में पर हक़ीक़त
ख़्वाब सी बिलकुल नहीं है
जिंदगी समझौता है इक
कोई जिद चलती नहीं है

जिंदगी में पर हक़ीक़त
ख़्वाब सी बिलकुल नहीं है

Heart Check up Camp at Ganjdundwara

As decided we conducted a two day free heart and health check up camp at Sherwani College at Ganjdundwara in collaboration with Escorts Heart Institute.

The Escorts team left a day in advance. They were taken care of by Babloo at Etah. Arun Pathak, Anuj Saxena and Mohd Arif joined from Delhi. Dharmendra joined enroute at Mathura and got us nice breakfast at Brijwasi Royal. Sudhir joined at Sikandara Rau. Sajan and Babloo along with Dr. Harendra came from Etah.

On reaching Ganj there were issues as always. Doctors had few requirements which took us some time to organise. But once it began, it was one big event. Senior citizens in large numbers turned up and benefited. The doctors from Escorts felt it was really needed here.

The lunch was arranged at Manish Chauhan's place and it was timely served. Some of us returned as we had pressing engagements at Delhi but Sudhir, Dharmendra, Anuj, Babloo held the forteand got the camp conducted the camp next day as well.

Thanx are due to all those who came and all those who wish us well even if they are not able to be physically present.

The struggle is eternal and we shall carry on.
