Government Girls School trains its studentsin tailoring and craft making

work of women’s wear in theschool premises, evoking a goodresponse. P. Padma (Headmis-tress) said that the students,

apart from regular studies, arealso compulsorily trained in tai-loring and craft classes afterschool hours. She said that

since many of the girls, owingto poverty, give up studies af-ter school, these skills couldhelp them in finding jobs.

Suicide is Good (Sometimes)Ram Singh a bus driver who was always on the run until

Miss Delhi got into his vehicle one night. He lost his sanityand the angel lost her virginity in an act that stupidMacaulay called an offence of rape under Section 376 of hisinfamous I.P.C.

Ram Singh was, with his invited 5 guests on the rape-dream run, made a State guest in the capital ‘s Tihar Jailwhich, not having a provision to pamper these guests withair-conditioned accommodation, had a grilled opening to letthe good air in and the foul air out.

Ram Singh did not like all the pow-vow going on in thecourt and perhaps did not like the food or his other three cellmates and suddenly decided to call it a night. He engineereda rope out of his bedsheet or shirt and made a beautifulnoose as recompense for what, a few months earlier, hadled to the death of a good girl at the hands of a pack ofbeasts led by him.

Though, allegedly, both his arms had steel supportbecause of some previous injury and though he had theiron will to deflower the tender helpless girl, the possibilityof being hanged a la friend Guru drove this driver nuts andhe did one more foolish thing in life to end his array ofmistakes. How he climbed the 8-feet high grill is left to theSherlockism of the the investigator to unravel but since hehad to look up, the good old Sikh God must have helpedhim and our driver friend must have reached the pearlygates in the haven of peace.

In a recent laugh column in the Times Of India, underthe heading ‘With the Times’, there was a gem which saidthat a chap like our Ram Singh died and, at the interviewby the Reception Committee, the new arrival was aghastat a palace having been allotted to a particular chap while,for the billions of others since life on earth had begun, mereone room tenements made of leaves and thatch had beengiven.

The new entrant asked “Why the palace for him?”“Only one lawyer since time began deserved it and if you

show me another we will build another!”Ram Singh too was given a thatched shed because he

cannot rise to the challenge. Thank you TOI. The next palace will be for me, say 20+

years hence when my tenancy on Mother Earth expires,according to an astrologer. I am in no hurry.
