RANDOM THOUGHTS OCT, 2019

The highlight of this month is the Indian Festival of Deepawli celebrating the victory of good over evil. The city of Ayodhya was lit up to receive Lord Rama returning after he killed the Demon Ravana. Deeawalli has since been celebrated in India to commemorate that event. Over centuries, it has aquired a generalized meaning of good winning over bad.

An important post in this month relates to the need of regulating conduct of Corporates. The corporate honchos control large amount of public money and the post relating to ex-CMD of Fortis showing misuse of these funds brings out such a need.

ROMAN SCRIPT TO DEVNAGRI SCRIPT:

HINDI TO ENGLISH……SHARING A SOLUTION
I have noticed many friends communicate in Hindi but write Hindi language in Roman script.This may be due to lack of proficiency in English or difficulty in typing Hindi on computer key board or both. Reading such posts is also a pain.
I had long litigation with villagers in my Haryana village, regarding my ancestral lands. This required a lot of Hindi typing for the court work.I spent lot of money & time getting Hindi typing from typists in Courts.This was until:I found a solution.
I wish to share this solution with you all.
This will save the writer the pain of typing in Hindi script and save the reader the pain of making sense out of Hindi written in Roman script.
Please visit www.indiatyping.com. Here you write Hindi in Roman script and in a second the site returns it duly typed in Devnagari script.You can then copy and paste.

Example: I type:- Aap kaise hain. Kis party ko jita raheh hain?

I get: आप कैसे हैं किस पार्टी को जीता रहेह हैं ?

Hope it helps.

Abhinek of 2023 batch is here with me to get some contribution for “Kshitij” –a students event to be held 18th to 20th Jan 2020 and braught back memories of days gone by.

CHEDI’s was the place for late night tea,coffee,pakoda,’sutta/fag’;
We called it ‘Le Chedis’
He talked about the new lingo used at ‘kgp’ currently:
‘peace’ sustitutes for ”ok’
‘load’: substitutes for tension, like; lot of load due to maths these days
and the good old “tempo” and “funda” continue

DURGA POOJA

DURGA POOJA BY KIDS, FOR KIDS, OF KIDS
ये दौलत भी ले लो , ये शोहरत भी ले लो
भले छीन लो मुझसे मेरी जवानी
मगर मुझको लौटा दो बचपन का सावन
वो कागज़ की कश्ती , वो बारिश का पानी….(Translation:Follows)
Give me back, my Lord:
Those drops of rain on my face,
Those boats of paper, those play things;
My name, my fame, my youth-
These are but nothings.
