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.

A small boy wrote letter to Shivji:
Oh my dear God , please give me a bicycle.
One week passed. Usko cycle nahi mili.
Tab usne Ganesh ji ki moorti dekhi aur
use apne ghar le aaya.
Again he wrote a letter..
Mr Shivji, aapka beta mere kabze mein hai,
agar beta chaahiye to give me a bicycle in 24 hours..

Har kali aapse khushboo udhaar maange,
khuda aapse noor udhaar maange,
rab kare aap dosti nibhaayein aise,
har koi mujhse aapki dosti udhaar maange.

Sehmi-sehmi nigaahon mein khwaab hum jagaa denge,
sooni-sooni raahon mein phool hum khila denge,
aap humaare saath muskura kar to dekho..
hum saare gham bhula denge.

सफ़र में धूप तो होगी, जो चल सको तो चलो
सभी हैं भीड़ में, तुम भी निकल सको तो चलो

किसी के वासते राहें कहाँ बदलती हैं
तुम अपने आप को खुद ही बदल सको तो चलो

यहाँ किसी को कोई रास्ता नहीं देता
मुझे गिराके अगर तुम संभल सको तो चलो

यही है जिंदगी, कुछ ख़्वाब चंद उम्मीदें
इन्ही खिलौनों से तुम भी बहल सको तो चलो

- निदा फ़ज़ली

वादा ना करो अगर निभा ना सको
चाहो ना उसे जिसे तुम पा ना सको
दोस्त तो बहुत होंगे मगर एक ऐसा भी बनाओ
जिसके बिना तुम मुस्कुरा ना सको ..

Waada na karo agar nibha na sako
chaaho na use jise tum paa na sako
dost to bahut honge magar ek aisa bhi banao
jiske bina tum muskura na sako..
