An Experience with nature

An Experience with nature - I

A night in the deep jungle of mountain

I was walking alone through the deep blue jungle. It was a full moon night and the jungle was awesome in the moonlight; I was astonished watching the dark beauty of the jungle.

A trekking camp was conducted by the Assam Mountaineering Association to Jithang, a base camp of the Garishion peak of Arunachal Himalaya Mountain Range in the month of October in 1996. In a beautiful morning we started our journey to Tezpur, from where we would go to Tawang District of Arunachal Pradesh to start our trekking expedition to Jithang. We were 15 members, our Team Leader and senior member Sh. Kishor Baruah, Dy. Leader Sh. Lalit Rabha, senior member Sh. Pulak Mahanta, senior member Ms. Bhumika Talukder, senoir member Ratan Basumatary, Rupak, Bipul, Sanjeev, Hiranmayee, Ramesh, our friend late Amar, Babita, Jeuti and myself along with our cook Daju.

We reached Tezpur in the afternoon. Tezpur is a historical and mythological place of Assam. In mythology, it is said that princess of Tezpur (Sunitpur), Usha was fall in love with Anirudha, the grandson of Lord Krishna. So Anirudha was kidnapped to Tezpur by a friend of Princes Usha. But when King knew about their love story, he arrested Prince Anirudha. Then Lord Krishna came with his army to free Anirudha.

After having lunch, we went to Agnigarh, palace of King Baan. We enjoyed the beautiful view of Brahmaputra River from Agnigarh. The sunset view was a memorable moment in my life! Next day evening we moved to Tawang District. In the morning we reached Jung, from where we were supposed to start our expedition. Jung is a historical place in Arunachal Pradesh. This is the place where during the Indo-China war in 1962, our Indian Army fought bravely with our enemy.

The day after, we started our trekking expedition to Jithang. Our first destination was Broxer. After having breakfast we moved towards Broxer. It was a beautiful shinny morning! I was on full energy and enjoying the views on my way. But after lunch time, I was slow in walking. I felt tired and wanted to take rest for some time. But our team leader told me, we had to reach our destination by the evening. So slowly I kept walking. All my team members had already reached our destination. Slowly it became dark. It was a full moon night and the jungle looked beautiful. I had never seen this scene in my life before! Though I was too late to reach my destination, I forgot everything. Tried to enjoy those awesome moments in jungle in the moonlight!

At last, I could be able to reach Broxer – our destination. My friends Sanjeev and Ramesh had come towards me for help. Everybody was waiting for me and cheered me when I reached. But as I was too tired to say any word, only I could give them a smile. I slept early that night because next day we had to go on most tough trek – our next destination was Thimbu.

To be continue.

Independence Day.... NOSTALGIA!

15th August, Independence Day of India, it's a just Nostalgia now. Just like a green valley in my childhood memory! On every pre Independence day evening little girls eagarly waited for their father on his return from office. Then he opened the iron trunk and kept out the tri color for his daughters. The littles were so happy to get the tri color in hands! On every Independence day these littles fled the tri color at their courtyard and sang Jana Gana Mana along with their parents. The young little girls even did not understand well the meaning of INDEPENDENCE those days!! Likely the other pre independence evenings, that evening also the littles eagarly waited for their father. Father came from office but did not hand over the tri color to his daughters. Littles were still waiting to get their tri color from that locked iron trunk... at last they decided to remind their father about their tri color. But in reply what their father said, they didn't understand. Father tol...

We want only half of the Sky!!!

Today the world is celebrating “WOMEN’S DAY” . But do we really understand who is a woman? Are we really giving value to this human being except dedicating a special day every year! It is very shameful to say that this society is still not safe for females. Somewhere, little young girls are molested by some sick minded people; somewhere 80 years old lady has to be treated very badly; somewhere if a girl wants to protest against eve teasing she has to be a victim of acid attack. Recently the “16 December DAMINI ” is still alive in our minds! The DAMINI died, we protested and our law & order said that DAMINI will be justified soon. Though the victims were caught instantly, our judicial system is still trailing that what punishment should be given to those culprits after 3 and half months have passed. A grand salute!!! I have seen the people being upset when a girl child born in their family and the same people look for seven or eight little young girls to worsh...
