Note – I upset a very dear friend with my choice of words in the first paragraph of this blog. I was very angry when I wrote this, but that’s no excuse. I am rewording the offensive paragraph. Apologies to all my friends and well wishers for the […]
Yesterday when Amma opened the kitchen window, she saw a tiny bat latched onto the outer wire mesh. Obviously the bat couldn’t see very well in daylight and so didn’t move or it was dead. In 2010, as we were about to close up the house and leave […]

In the days after the CAA was passed by the parliament, there are three pictures that sent a chill down my spine and they tell a disturbing story of our country at this present juncture. I am no political commentator nor an activist – I am just a […]
On Friday we were criss crossing the Delhi Cantt area and found this “jhuggi” or “tent” colony right next to one of the MES offices. It worries me that such temporary dwelling has come up inside a cantonment area, because of security reasons. The next point is, this […]
Every year in January the Bengali Saraswati Puja is celebrated in our condominium complex. I have bought the bhog coupons a couple of years but never managed to visit the puja pandal or eat there. This time also I saw the announcement rather late but luckily met Kittu […]
