The Story Of Ramesh And Suresh

The Story Of Ramesh And Suresh - Part 2

Both Ramesh and Suresh decided to go to a postpaid sweets & snacks shop which is running well so that they can eat and escape from there without paying for it.

Part 1: The Story of Ramesh and Suresh

[ Suresh still looking nervous but Ramesh is very confident ]

"Are you sure, we won't get caught?" asked Suresh
"Oh! Absolutely not, you just relax" said Ramesh locking his bicycle.

[ Both entered the shop ]

"Look at the facial expression of that man, if we get caught he will beat our bum till it becomes red-hot," said Suresh in a faint voice.

"He is the staff, not the owner...It seems that last night his wife had beaten him too much" Ramesh jeered at him.

"Give us four samosas in two different plates...and don't forget the chutney" Ramesh said to that staff.
The staff gave him a weird look but then gave him his order.

*Both Ramesh and Suresh decided to eat that outside the shop, not too far, the shopkeeper and the staff became suspicious of their behaviour but became busy taking the order of the next customer.

"Behave in a natural way and don't eat too fast" lectured Ramesh about how to not get caught.

[Both began eating]

"The samosa is delicious and with chutney, it is like..uh...WOW!" said Suresh (biting Samosa dipped in the chutney).

"This Samosa is tastier than those we have to pay for" said Ramesh.

[Suresh find this argument completely nonsense but he ignored it and enjoying his snack]

"Now listen, we've to put the plates there, wash our hands, and run to the bicycle. But don't run suddenly, first walk, gradually increase your speed and finally run with full speed." Ramesh said, completing his lecture.

"I am going first" said Suresh suddenly.

They both did the same and after they were gone the shopkeeper realised that the kids cheated them.

"From where do these people come from? What manners their parents have given them? They're bloody thieves" the shopkeeper said in frustration.

[On the way to home]

"Hurray! We made it...I said we can do that" Ramesh bragged about his so-called art.

*Suresh showed his fake smile but didn't say anything.

"What do you think...Should we do it again?"

"Are you suffering from kleptomania or something?"

"Are you crazy? Did I steal something?" asked Ramesh in a loud voice.

What the hell is he saying? Is he mad?? Suresh asked these questions to himself.

[Silence]

Bihar Liquor Ban - The Political Perspective

Whether you call it Nitish Kumar's masterstroke for gaining publicity and support of people or a responsible chief minister batting for people's interests, on the face of it, it is great that Bihar is free from alcohol abuse. The Bihar excise (amendment) act, 2016 – a very old 1915 act has been converted into a very stringent law – is haunting the alcohol gang of Bihar. This law banned manufacturing, selling or consumption of liquors (strong or mild) and even prescribes the death penalty for the manufacturer, suppliers and sellers of hooch in case of death as a result of consumption of spurious liquors. Although Biharis can drink outside state boundary, they'll be punished if they create nuisance after returning home. The government had actually proposed to ban only 'desi' liquors. The sale of non-country or ‘Indian Made Foreign Liquor’ (IMFL) was allowed, although, with some caveats. However, within five days, the government extended the ban to IMFL as w...

Bihar Liquor Ban - Alcoholism and Society

Disclaimer : No alcohol has been used during the writing of this post. I don't know why I didn't cover this story earlier. Probably because on this topic, I didn't want to write in haste and as sayings go “better late than never”, I came up with this post. And while writing this article, sometimes I felt an alcoholic haze, that is why you should read this carefully! Let us begin with the definition of 'Alcoholism'. Casually, the process of consuming alcoholic drinks is called alcoholism. But, to be precise, alcoholism is a medical condition in which there is an abnormal addiction to alcohol, and taking it in small quantity very occasionally is not. Simply put, if you can live without alcohol, you are not an alcoholic. “Alcoholism is the effect of excessive intake of alcohol on the functions of the body and personality.” ~ W.C. Reckless “Alcoholism is a condition in which the individual has lost control over his alcohol intake in that he is constantl...

The Magical Castle - Unravelling The Myth

One day, Peter and team decided to give a final try and search the deepest part of the sea. Sadie noticed that there was a large number of aquatic animals moving in and out of a particular place. On further inquiry, she saw a castle, yes it was the magical castle. She felt immense pleasure to see it. She also saw a whale there. She informed Peter about this. Peter and John came there with swords and harpoon, hidden with them. They sent Sadie back to the ship for her safety. As they move forward, Octo uncle saw them and he at once spilled ink as a mark of danger to alert everyone there. Then, came the orca out of the ink to attack them. They moved back in three different directions. The orca chose John and started chasing him. John realised that he can't swim faster than a Whale. So, he aimed the harpoon towards Orca and shot it one after another. This made the orca even more aggressive. John realised that it is his last breath when the aggressive whale was mere 2 ft distance fro...

Why Religion Should Not Be Downplayed

When you were a child and your parents told you stories about god, you listened to that with great curiosity and excitement, but as you grow older and started seeing everything with the rational eye of science, you realise that it was a lie, and so every religious event and ritual appears to you as an act of stupidity. Still, you keep worshipping the men or women whom you were told to worship as Gods. Why? Have you considered what is the significance of religion? Religion teaches us that God has created this universe and he is running it in his own way. The Sun, The Moon, Stars, Planets, Living creatures — bacteria, viruses, plants, animals, humans are all the creation of God. We are just doing things ordained by him. It may appear that we are influencing things, but the reality is we, ourselves, are influenced by some heavenly forces. Indians, especially Hindus, are obsessed with rituals and other religious activities like holding fast and going to temple. Some of ...

JNU - A Vision of Modern Democratic India

Through the ongoing controversy what we need to understand is that ours is a young nation still in the making which has all the ingredients to become truly a great nation, but it needs time. Give this nation that time, that gestation period and it will show the world the true meaning of greatness, one which is home to a complete spectrum of diverse culture but still thrives together with immeasurable amount of tolerance which has never been experienced anywhere else (this holds for the common citizens of India but unfortunately not for the practitioners of divisive vote-bank politics which they don’t find anti-national). Every powerful nation that exists today has gone through some sort of civil war which led to enormous violence and bloodshed. We too have our share of challenges; be it the Kashmir issue, Nagaland or Naxalism; but we have the opportunity to show the world that we can do it in a better way without any bloodshed. It is that unity in diversity that is the soul of ...

FATHERS DAY SPECIAL

I have decided to write about the incredible Father-Children relationship on the occasion of father's day. I can't decide what to write on the topic that is so much related to my heart. I belong to the country which believes that our parents are equivalent to God and I am very proud of it. Whenever I remember my childhood my mind becomes full of incredible moments that I have spent with my parents especially my father I contribute this blog to children who are not fully mature and consider their parents as their enemy only because they care for them and love them so much that they can't fulfil their immature promises. Dear children Remember no one will better take care of you better than your parents will, so never ever consider your father or your mother as your enemy and love them and obey them. So if your dad asks you to hold his hand when you cross the street it's because he knows it can be dangerous because of all the cars. It's also why sometimes dad h...

The Brand Amma - Social Work or Self Promotion

J Jayalalithaa, the actress turned Chief minister of Tamil Nadu was given the nickname " Amma " by her followers comparing to or assuming her Amma (Mother). But, she developed this nickname to be the biggest brand in Tamil Nadu, the “Amma brand”. Despite having no market value of this brand, it has a very significant value for the people of Tamil Nadu, especially the poor and the have-nots. For them, she is the goddess who is not only filling their hungry stomach but also providing them almost all basic items necessary for living a decent life (including some luxurious items too). After becoming CM, the major work Jayalalithaa's government has done is providing subsidy and freebies to the people. For instance, subsidized cheap food at canteen, packaged water, pharmacy bill, cement, free rice, free mixer grinder, spectacles, mobiles, laptops, bicycles, etc. all under brand "Amma" and at the price no other shopkeepers, manufacturers or the e-commerce compan...
