Studying the political functioning of the biggest democratic country in the world is with no doubt has always been an hideous task for us CBSE students.

I still remember it, long lectures with matter hard to visually imagine in one screen, names of states and there capital and over that understanding the functioning of a dual polity system of central and state governance and each state having its own panchayat with its own leaders has been taking a long hours of students hard work.

Though this was tough, we had our all time favourite cartoons made by Sir. R.k. Laxman to make the subject look interesting. With due respect the shadings we used to put on his cartoons and re-draw it all over our copies are few moments that cannot be forgotten. Making concept look and sound easy his hands have created the finest cartoon in the Indian history. 

The role that the Legendary cartoonist R.k. Laxman has played in students and the Indian society is dominant. His cartoon has been able to make the politicians look human and the humour and satires in the cartoons has made politics interesting for all ages. 

Rest in Peace Sir. R.K. Laxman

Just a coffee!

He came to ask me out, to have a coffee in near by shop. Just a minute walk away it is, said he with a small voice. Confused I was, I tried not to look at his eyes. Making myself look stupid, I wanted to run from his sight. Moving my bag hanging from one side to both my shoulders, I said i have a tuition to attend. Assuring to meet next time, I waved good bye. During the slow walk for home, was a race running within my mind. The silent road had an eco of what was going inside my mind. It was just a coffee.. It was just a coffee.. Its just a coffee! Its just a coffee!

Hey Aabha, Lots have been told during these years. We know the importance we had in each other's life. So, this is not to praise you or to make you feel happy of this precious day but it is to try to make this day a starting of a new journey for you. I will tell you a story today. It started by making a Cup of Coffee. A girl decided to start her journey sharp at 9:00 pm. She placed a book with blank pages on her desk and a new pen besides it. Then she sat on the hard chair in the corner of the room with a confidence to draft her thoughts in paper under the night lamp. She stopped! She reached a white space. Her legs started shaking. Hands started shivering. Fingers unconsciously started rubbing her lips. But, then a bell of reminder to achieve her goal rang and brought her back to the real state. She then took the pen in her hand, stream of thoughts started flowing in her mind. In this abundance of emotions her search for right words began. She lost ...

Stream Of Thoughts (Part 1)

In the warm day of fading white snow, Cool breeze tickles like a feather through my face. Flowers with arm stretched to bloom, Aromatic breeze teases like a sent through my nares. A soft bed of grass cuddles to let the day pass, Gazing to the clear sky my breadth sounds relaxed. With fading light the shadows now seems to grow, Harking through every foot step my life feels occupied. The night of twinkiling stars afire the cosmic presense, Aching neck now nods right and left to get asleep. The cool breeze brings with it a flood of thoughts, Beating the silence now countless question ecos deep. Long forgotten the town i come from, The wait for love still remebers kindness. With arms gaping to heal the raw soal, The naked eyes still dreams of the greatest happiness... To be Continued....
