Dard Quotes

A real story from Konni, Pathanamthitta, Kerala:
A BPL family got water connection. Everyone was happy . The tap never gave any water after initial testing but after 3-4 months a bill of Rs. 480/- came in June 2024. The poor widow lady went to the local water office to complain that she had received a water bill showing meter reading zero. She also told authorities that being a BPL family she was told that no water bill will come.

The officials told her that her connection is yet to be converted to BPL and thus she has to pay the bill. They told that the connection will be converted to BPL in January 2025. Further, they directed her to an engineer. The engineer confirmed that as the water tank is still under construction so no water has been supplied to her as reflected in zero meter reading.

The lady asked them that she wants to surrender the water connection to which the officials told her that then she needs to pay panchayat penalty for agreeing to a water connection and then surrendering it. They told her that they will temporarily disconnect the connection but in case the meter reading will reflect any usage then she will face water theft charges.

अफ़सरों की मुरव्वत और
3 बलि के बकरे हो गए
तेरी तफ़तीश-ए-अख़्लाक़ के
तो हम क़ायल हो गए ..

Hum rahe na rahe, un logon ko saza milni chahiye.
Yeh 2020 hai, Insaaf ki misaal honi chahiye.
Court tumhara, neta tumhara, thana tumhara
Magar kanoon ko bhi to gunjaaish honi chahiye.
Izzat se zindagi basar karne ki
humein bhi to ijaazat honi chahiye..

Har ilzaam ka haqdaar woh humein banaa jaate hain,
har khata ki sazaa woh humein bataa jaate hain,
hum har baar khaamosh reh jaate hain..
kyonki woh har baar dost hone ka haq jataa jaate hain.

मैं चुपके से टूट गया
गिरता तो शोर होता ।

Tumse dooor jaane ka iraada na tha,
par saath rehne ka bhi waada na tha,
tum yaad na karoge yeh jaante the hum..
par itni jaldi bhool jaaoge yeh andaaza na tha.

Kaha koi aisa mila jispe dil luta dete,
Har ek ne dhoka diya kis-kisko bhula dete,
Apne dil ka dard dil hi mein dabaye rakhe hain,
Karte bayan to mehfil ko rula dete….
