English Literature – Stories – ☆ The Judge and the Judged ☆ Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury ☆ Story – The Judge and the Judged ☆ Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury ☆ The train has touched the platform and we two are ready. Not many but just a few of us will alight from this compartment. This is the privilege of travelling in the first class. What to talk of the general compartments which are always filled beyond their capacity, even in sleeper coachs people have to fight for their seats. Even to get their reserved seats sometimes they have to run after the T.T. who, under certain circumstances, might put a mask like face and never bother. A great diplomat of everyday life! But away from all these chaos we enjoy all our journey quite peacefully even in an overcrowded train. This is the advantage of being the government’s right hand! ‘Namaste, Saab! Parnam, malkin (ma’am).’ The moment he saw me standing near the door of the compartment, Ramaasre addressed us. Also our driver was...

English Literature – Stories – ☆ Kosi Sutluj Express ☆ Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury ☆ Story - Kosi Sutluj Express ☆ Dr. Amitabh Shanker Roy Choudhury ☆ One lakh twenty-five thousand cusecs of water! Who knows how much it is! This much is flowing through the river Kosi every day during this flood! Otherwise, every year barely five lakhs would flow in the month of September. Or say, nine lakh cusecs in the month of Kuhar or October. Just some days ago, it was a harmless snake which, a couple of days back, has turned into a giant, ferocious and all engulfing anaconda. And now Kosi is a bit tamed. Its fast-flowing water, washing both the banks, has become a bit subdued. The river Kosi is now flowing gracefully. The colour of all its tributaries – Panar, Lohandra, Mahanadi and Bakra has turned muddy. From orange. As a python becomes listless when it preys upon a deer and swallows it in toto, in the same way Kosi too has become quite gentle...

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
Shri Suraj Kumar Singh ☆ A Strange Reunion ☆    Mounted on a saddled black horse, the bludgeoned knight came to his old friend. The old friend that was the sea celebrated the knight's homecoming. The expression of its joy in the form of tumultuous waves was enchanting. "Oh dear knight, my good old friend you were born here, you grew here and you left only to come back! What pursuit you endeavoured that you took  a sabbatical from a playful innocent dream you saw with me?  The knight replied, "The pursuit of truth my friend!
