SOMETHING REALLY DISGUSTING....

I was in a jolly mood till this morning.My injury is healing and my fever has gone down.I haven't been to college since ten days.To all my friends:Fever gripped me on Wednesday and I had a really long rest on bed.When I opened the day's newspaper,I was horrified to read the words "Bandh tomorrow".The reason-a religious head was shot dead in Kandhmal(Orissa), a Maoist-affected district by unidentified assailants.There were 5 dead in all,including a child.Though the authorities have labled it as a "handiwork of terror",the possibility of it being a communal clash cannot be ruled out.In fact,Kandhmal hit the national news headlines during Christmas last year due to riots on basis of religion.
The word "bandh" has put me in a jittery now.The trail to college,the smoke bellowing from burnt tyres ,the roads,the people on the way-all these traumatize me now.
What is the purpose of a bandh,I wonder ...People preventing others-students,workers from doing their work by sheer brute force.What national interest does it serve?If they really want to protest against the injustice meted out,they must attract the attention of policy-makers .
Victimising the common man is definitely not the answer.There has been four road-blockades in the last fortnight on NH-5.I'm just sick of the
whole system of protesting by harming national interests. God knows if we'll be able to attend classes tomorrow without any hassles.I had planned to write a real funny post today,but alas !If only things were better !
