JAGO GRAHAK JAGO

Today is “Jagtik Grahak Din”. So all consumers, wish you that in coming year , not a single seller should deceive you. Now a day, govt. is trying to aware the consumers by the advertisement” Jago Grahak Jago”. But there is a doubt in my mind whether the consumer is really slept? Or is he pretending to be slept?Because this consumer when goes to market to buy coriander or a coconut, he enquires the price at 3 - 4 vendors,shakes the coconut 3 - 4 times before purchasing and warns the vendor that he will replace the coconut if it will not be good after breaking open. In newspaper, many times there is a news that a cheater, pretending to polish gold jewellery, deceived someone. Again many times, there is news in newspaper about various bogus schemes. In such bogus schemes, there are very attractive lures promised by the seller. Even a man of common sense, will understand that in this world, there can't be a single business -man,who will be running his shop for loss. Yet, every day , above mentioned incidents of deceiving happen.
        The reality is that, in this world, some fraudulent vendors as well as the consumers both are very clever and there is always a competition between them. Some consumers are always trying to save money and to achieve more and more in less expenditure. Infact ,to save money isn't bad at all. Again the consumer wishes to provide comfort to his family members in his limited income. Moreover, in these days of growing dearth, the consumer has to be economical. Many times, he is helpless.  But some fraudulent vendors take disadvantages of consumer’s this weak-point. They find out various attractive new schemes and easily deceive the consumers.
 
            Some days ago, I have listened that some builders came together and built a township on an unauthorised land. They sold these flats at half price to the consumers. They prepared sale-deed only on stamp of Rs.500, and without registration.Yet the consumers were ready to buy, and all flats were sold. Afterward this township was legalised. So in such cases, whom will you blame? Even though there are laws to prevent such deceiving, it is necessary that the consumer also should be alert.
        Now, on 18th March, there is Gudi Padva. So let us pledge on our first day of the new year according to Marathi Calendar that in this new year we (all consumers) shall try to take precautions as much as possible. So, wish you Happy Gudi Padva also with this Jagtik Grahak Din.

WEAK-POINT OF PARENTS

When I saw in news, that Daud is in depression because of his son, there was no surprise for me. Because now, this is admitted fact that everyone can fight against the whole world, but not against own issues. So Daud who in his whole life fought against many nations and against the mankind, became helpless towards his Son. So taking disadvantages of this truth, many times, the children emotionally blackmail parents and compel the parents to behave according to their wishes.         In childhood, many among us ,had seen the movie “ Molakarin”. As I was child,I wasn't understanding why that mother was tolerating the behaviour of her son and of daughter-in-law. Why was she forgiving her son and loving him? Afterward I read the story of Hirakani. Moreover I read news about a mother that when a tiger attacked her son, she fought with that tiger and saved her son. Then I came to know that for the sons and daughters, the parents are always ready to ...

CREATIVITY

There is four years old Mini living near my house. Yesterday she came to my house and took me to her home forcibly to see her Rangoli. In fact there were only four five zigzag lines to which she was calling as peacock . But for the first time, she had drawn Rangoli, and there was great happiness on her face. When I saw her Rangoli and was praising her to encourage her, her grandmother came in that room with a delicious dish of banana pury. She told me that she had made that dish for the first time, and everyone in their house liked it very much. There was also the same happiness on her face like her granddaughter. It was the happiness of creativity. Yes! Creativity in every field gives the same happiness to everyone. That's why the poor person when builds or prepare a hut with his own hands, there is this happiness on his face as if he has built “Taj- Mahal”. If such creativity is praised by people,that artist's happiness increases. But he gets same happiness from his creatio...

GOD'S GIFT ?

Two days ago,I met our one relative. She is 85 years old lady. I have been looking her since 40 years. Till her age of 80 year, she was very active lady, doing her all duties in family, as well as in society. She, regularly exercised for an hour every day. She put in to practice all tips for health. So overall, she was very fit person and ideal person in society. But now, because of age factor, she is unable to stand, to walk and she suffers from gasping. Now she is very weak. So really it is very painful to see her present condition. The more painful thing is that she herself is aware about her past and present condition.             I know another old lady. She has crossed her 90 years age. For the whole life, she was a lady of calm and quiet nature and always taking precautions that there should be no nuisance to others because of her. But now, because of age factor,she has lost her control on her brain. So, now, for every m...
