Rumors

By : Aparna Das Date : 29.3.2018


One day when I was standing in front of the house gate, a known voice came from the neighbor house. One of my Aunt is telling someone, that on the other side of the Canning (in south 24 pgs) Muslims are going to Hindu para and say house to house, If Hindus come out of the house then they will be cut off. As soon as I heard this, I was scared. Since seven years as I write on the newspaper, Magazine so I came out in the next day morning to see the truth of this rumors towards Caning area. In  midday I reached the canning station by auto from Baruipur. I saw People around the caning station are crowded, everyone is busy with their work, Somewhere I did not think so differently. Everything was  the same. Then I went into a lane on the side of the pavement, when  I was going to enter the lane, I saw many men, women taking water in a Kaltola And mocking smile with each other. I went beside the koltola and saw, several Hindu and Muslim women are flooding water each other's pots. Seeing the dresses of them both Hindus an Muslims were present there. The Koltala seemed like a family. At that time one of them looked at me and said, Ma, will you drink water? I took my neck and said, Ma’am first you fill  water, after that I'll take it. Honestly speaking, I was so pleased to see the mutual love of each other that I was wishing to see this scene filled with my two eyes. In the meantime, a woman gave me a bottle of water to drink. I thanked the Muslim woman and started drinking water from the bottle. When I was drinking water, a aged woman asked me, Ma do not know you, are you new in this para? I replied, no. Actually one of my relative lives in this para. As I heard he was ill, so I came to see him.The aged women said, oh! is your relative well now? I said, yes. I'm returning home only because he is well. My heart is filled with joy, knowing that my relative live in healthy and wealthy, that’s why I am standing here for so long.

Real relative , who helps in a bad time                                                                         By : Aparna Das Date : 21.3.2018           Last year in the middle of April, one day I went to Panchayat in my area for a trade license. It was very hot day. From home to Panchayat 20 minutes walking distance, so I walked there with my close friend umbrella. When I reached Panchayat there was no one present, except 2-1  temporary staff.   I asked one person and got to know that someone had died on that day, so everyone went there. After hearing it, my mind became a little worse. As soon as for return home, I was going straight down the stairs, at that time I got pee . I was feeling very embarrassed and immediately began to sweat. Suddenly I saw an elderly gentleman in a tailor in front of the Panchayet. Seeing the hanging boards in front of the tailor and the shave of the aged man, I   realized that he is a Muslim . Gradually I went forward to the tailors, and I found

Month of Valentine's By : Aparna Das                                                      Date : 31.1.2018 Love is in the air  . Me, my family, my friends and all across the globe, have started planning what will be doing on the big day as Valentine’s Day. Here my question is w hy every year, on a particular day in the month of February, we all are sudden start feeling romantic! Especially the ones, why not everyone and everything?. Added that, I have another thing on my mind, Valentine’s day should be renamed as ‘Global Bravery Day for Singles’, looking at the amount of Singles trying to make this day a tad bit ‘normal’ by making it romantic. Lovey-dovey, hearts, roses, chocolates, selfie,  red red everywhere. And the middle of it single people have a lot of worry in this day’s! They pray to god, when the day would passed! To the folks, I would suggest 1 st  April as the new Valentine’s Day from this year . At least in that case, if the girl or boy rejects som
