When I started going to school on my first bike, I had one major accident once and those days very crucial as board exams were going to start soon. I got several injuries on face and on right leg also. However after a week of medication and rest, I was ready to go to school again. My bike was also damaged and as it was insured, 60% of the repair cost was given by insurance company. Personal Injury legal services also came out to be very useful and at that time I thought how important an insurance is. At the time of accident I don’t remember something hit my lower jaw and it caused some tooth to bleed and later developed some bone infection. I can remember how frightened I was when I heard about it from my dentist and he talked about a surgery. There was no escape from this surgery as it was the only option left else infection could reach other tooth also. The only painful part was the injection on gums and then I was not feeling any pain at all during surgery. However at the time of cutting stitches, the pain was like hell. So if you own an insurance policy, make sure it’s got no hassle claim procedure else it may take very long to get money.

Yesterday a street a street dog became mad and attacked a person of our colony. Thankfully my cousin brother saw that and he gave a hard kick to dog and saved that person. But still he got injured and that dog bit him at many places. Today in the morning I heard from some people that the mad dog has been killed. Few hours back I saw the same dog lying at the side of road and thinking that the dog is now dead, put my camera ON and went near the dog to take a photo for blog. ZMOG! He stood up and started barking, two other dogs came for helping him and I ran back as fast as I can. He was not dead but some people have beaten him hard and broken the legs. I’ll kill not only that dog tomorrow but also the two who are saving him.

Looks like police of Aligarh is having shortage of funds (money for chai pani) so what they do is stand on road side and check all the papers of every vehicle passing by. It’s obvious that not everyone will be having all the papers which include registration, insurance, license etc and they have a chance of asking money for letting you go. Yesterday I was going with my mechanic to buy that rubber paint and they caught me and I had no papers! I took one of the constables in corner and asked of how to get rid of this problem now. He smiled and said to talk with the driver of police wan. I talked to him and at last he came to his point and asked for Rs.150 (about 4$). I asked him if he had a change of Rs.50 and he shamefully said yes. I gave him Rs.200 and he was quick to handover the change, I thanked him and went away. This small bribe saved me from the hassle of challan and saved time as well. However I will now carry all the original papers from now and then see, but I know I’ll have to pay the bribe every time they check because they point out some or the other mistakes in your paper and they know everything is right but for money they do it. I can remember once I had all the papers but the cop said that registration paper looks fake! (though it was not). But today when I was going with my friend Waseem to see his center for his exam, again they caught us and luckily this time Waseem did had his driving license with him. They however fined for not having other papers. While police men were doing their job and telling us to carry papers always, we were happy to have some stuff for blog LOL! |
