आखिर कब आएगा घर वाला स्टेशन? (27/05/2020)

सड़को पर चटाई बिछा के चिलचिलाती धूप में घर परिवार जोड़े-बैठे,गांव जाने की चाह में तकती हुई गरीबों की आँखे,अब थकी-थकी सी नज़र आती हैं!

जिन्होंने अपनी हड्डियों को गला-गला के इन पूँजीपतियों (Capitalists)को करोड़पति बनाया, ये संवेदनहीन लोग इन्हे दो महीने का सहारा नहीं दे सके? जिन्होंने तुम्हारी ऊँची इमारतों को बनाने के लिए रेते में सीमेंट के साथ अपना खून भी मिलाया,क्या उनके बच्चों को मुसीबत के वक़्त खाना देने तुम्हारी जिम्मेदारी नहीं थी?

जब भी बिल्डिंग से नीचे उतरता हूँ ये हज़ारो की तादाद में इखट्टी आशाएं मुझसे चुपके से पूछ लेती हैं,"क्यों अनुपम मियां,अब हमारी मज़बूरियों की फोटो खिंच के पोस्ट लिखोगे न"?मैं कहता हूँ हाँ,इन मरी हुई आत्माओं वाले जिंदा लोगो को जिन्दा करने के लिए जो बन पड़ेगा करूँगा.

कल बॉस को फोन किया की सर मेरी बिल्डिंग के नीचे हज़ारो आदमी भेड़-बकरियों की तरह पड़े हैं,अपने Plant में क्यों न लेले इनको,पर उनकी मजबूरी की उन्हें "Relevant Experience" चाहिए!

इन लोगों का दोषी अदृश्य वायरस नहीं है,इनके दोषी सरकारें हैं, Industrialists हैं,आप-मैं हैं,वो संस्थाओं हैं जो एक बार १०० लोगों को खाना देकर हज़ार फोटो निकालती हैं!

कभी सोचता हूँ सड़को पे पड़े ये लोग ये,महिलाये,बच्चे सुबह टॉयलेट कैसे जाते होंगे, नहाते कहाँ होंगे? क्या उन मकान मालिकों की आत्मा मर गयी थी जब इन सबको सड़को पे धकेला!

शायद हाँ आत्मा तो शायद हम सबकी ही मर चुकी है

#Unblocking Connections (28th April 2020)

This girl had blocked me a year back when I was at home not working, saying I was a pervert, my social media posts & the way I think had no class. Also, I did not deserve to be a friend of any woman whatsoever.

Yesterday, I received her Facebook request & a message on WhatsApp, asking about my well-being first and later telling me that she has lost her job due to COVID & If I could help her with some references if possible.

Guys, the time approaching us is a testing one. Common sense says a number of people will lose means of earning & new job creation is going to be the last thing happening.

In these times, a lot of people, if you are a possible help, will try to get in touch, maybe some old connection you never liked or did not deserve help, but please don't judge them on your past experience, please help them as much as you can.

Unblock connections, ask them if they are fine if they need any support. Some people are so bad in articulating need of help. Entertain each one with compassion even if you are not possibly helping.

What if we are the ones needing help?

But believe me, in no time we will be living in a better world, a world dominated by care, respect & love for each other.

सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः।

Capitalist World under Corona Threat (20-May-2020)

In this capitalist world, don't expect a capitalist to suffer. One who suffers is a hashtag#worker, a salaried, one who earns hashtag#wages. Yes, the world is in trouble, companies have a hard time surviving. But if some capitalist has earned hashtag#Profits for years isn't this is his hashtag#Moral responsibility to take care of those who have helped him to earn those profits in these years. Why is he not thinking twice before throwing them out? Isn't it painful to see workers on roads going back to hometowns in most inhuman ways? Why are they going, why those companies are not taking care of them? Hardly organizations had followed the government order to pay wages in hashtag#lockdown, and if it wasn't enough, the hashtag#SupremeCourt ruled against it. SC can see the losses to capitalists but can't see the pain of Workers. Who dies of workplace tragedies? A worker. Who spends a lifetime to make an organization thriving? A worker. But organizations could not see a couple of months wages going into the pockets of that worker. Dear Narendra Modi, 1) Identify who have died on the roads because of job loss. 2) Find out where were they working. 3) If the Organisation were in profits for the last 3 years, charge the hashtag#Management with Murder.
