14 Feb 2008 New Delhi / Noida :
While waiting for my private Cab Colleagues at ISBT Delhi today ;
I saw this Man -around 25 years of Age . He was sleeping with a
blanket on one of the Pillars supporting 1 of the Flyovers
(probably a Construction worker.)
I could see a sense of grief in his eyes.
He woke up and I could see he was walking barefoot .
How difficult is for such people - with just a blanket
under an open sky in such a Cold Weather.
At least this Man had a Blanket . Many poor people do not have even
this .
You would think that I could give a few blankets or do some charity work .
But such a thing would only be localised .
Can't there be a big revolution in our country to provide all such
people with Houses / Shelters as well as more means to live ?
May be I am getting idealist but then what I saw today provoked me into
thoughts on this .
More in my Next Blog Entry .
In an exciting finish in the first test match at Mohali, India beat Australia by 1 wicket. India had to make 216 to win, and at 1 stage India were 124 for 8. Then V.V.S.Laxman and Ishant Sharma had a superb partnership of 81 runs and took India to victory. Laxman remained unbeated on 73, and Ishant made 31. The place where I am currently staying does not subscribes to the sports channel showing this match, but I would surely love to watchthe highlights of this match.
