An Enthralling Dream

Relic Palace in forest

Yesterday night, I saw an amazing and enthralling dream. I saw that with a group of people I reached an aloof place. It was a giant relic of a king’s palace. It was surrounded by the dense woodland. The palace was so tall that the height of the terrace was two floors higher than the tallest trees of the thicket. I can still visualize that panorama. It was splendid. I wish I am a painter and I could canvas it.

According to a rumor that forest was haunted. The troupe of mine visited that place just to find out the concealed truth of that haunted palace and forest. After a day or two [it just passed like daily soaps write at below after two days], we got an information that our chopper cannot come to pick us to take us back to our home. All were anxious. Few were frightened. I talked with the wife of my friend that let’s call number 100 and get the help from the Police. She confronted her husband who was trying to get some way out with my suggestion. He asked her to let him try in his own way and also implied its better to not take the help of police in this matter. According to my inurement, I started thinking why to not take help of Police? I came to the conclusion, may be because we are at such [so called haunted place] and it might raise some issues on taking prior permit to visit this place or something which we didn’t had. That could be the result he was refusing to take help of police. With this thinking I slept in the dream :D

In the next day morning, we were standing on the rooftop and what we saw can you imagine? We saw the choppers in the sky of Ahmedabad police which came to rescue us. In the middle of everyone’s amazement, I was smiling and thinking inside that I was the one who called the One-Zero-Zero to take and asked for the help. I know my friend refused to call the cops, but everyone’s safety had been my first priority as always ;) And I was feeling proud as I rescued everyone and also proud on Ahmedabad police as they came in such short notice on a single call. Then I heard my parent was asking me to wake up or I will be late for the office :D I woke up with an exclamation like “Wow what a thrilling dream it was!”

The dream was outcome of writing a blog on Ahmedabad city police and then watching a Fear files episode of a haunted place in Rajasthan before I went to sleep. It was really fun, but can be scary for soft hearten people.

Ahmedabad City Police is OnLine Duty

You might have read these banners in Ahmedabad. I always believe that someone is doing well always appreciate & encourage the one with few words of admiration. This post is to admire the efforts of Ahmedabad City Police. You might have read my previous post of Women Helpline. If not, you must read for information acquisition and spreading of commendable job, called, PoliceHeart here: http://talksfest.blogspot.com/2013/12/policeheart-initiative-of-ahmedabad.html

Ahmedabad Police seems to be conscious & zealous about their duty. The most meritorious thing is they are not helping people, but also trying to spread awareness with advanced technology like social media. They share updates of various information including Helplines, traffic rules, success stories and something which I liked the most was share of traffic rule breaking penalty list. Check the picture below:

Fine for Violation of Traffic Rules

I wish, you all will obey the traffic rules as a good citizen, but in case if you break any of rules, you can pay the fine listed above. Take self responsibility; obey the traffic rule, if you had not please pay the fine as listed above. Do not support corruption please. :)

Apart from these, there is one more helpline number 1098 which is a child helpline number. You may call on 1098 Ahmedabad police helpline when you want to rescue any child around you. For women, Police has launched two new services which I would love to bring to your attention. 1096 number to get help at time of domestic violence. One more initiative of Ahmedabad Police is called 100 reasons to call 100. We all know police helpline number 100, but you might not have information on how it can help specifically a woman. If at night time, a woman is not getting a cab or auto and/or feeling frightened than she can call the number 100 for help. The Ahmedabad police van will pick a woman and drop her to her home or safe place. One more thing to keep in mind is that van will have a lady police. So if she is not there, demand for a lady police. ;) At night, any lady can ask for a lady cop if she needs to go with the police. Prevention is better than cure.

Ahmedabad police also allows people to spend the day with them and share their experiences. I also wish to experience such day, probably :D I hope, you never stuck in any situation where you need to call any helpline number, but you must be aware of such things. You can get regular updates by liking their online pages.

If any Ahmedabad police cop is reading this post, I would like to give one suggestion that please, arrange self defense learning classes on weekend for women in Ahmedabad because prevention is always better than cure.

The Thrilling Travel Destination

Most Adventorous Travel Destination

Now-a-days, I have started diving in the deep ocean of English. I keep my radar on to grasp new words in English and expand my vocabulary with it. Learning anything is fun and learning English is much more fun because it is quite confusing at sometimes because same word have different meanings and there are numerous words. I think no-one can master the English language thoroughly because there are endless words. I know I am imperfect, but as per my inurement, I have begun my efforts to be closer to perfect which is going to lead me to be good, at least. My dear friend is helping me out by giving me homework in which she gives me a few words and ask me to write a blog on that. Yeah ! She knows that I am lethargic, but good disciple so I will always complete my homework.

Today's topic is to write about my dream destination using few words. Dream Destination, umm, I haven't dreamed to traverse to some specific destination. You know, I dream about my work, studies, career and all that, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy traveling. I would love to go on a voyage. According to the words she has given, The trip should be thrilled enough to have goosebumps. I have already been on such excursion. I have experienced the thrill by ducking myself in the sea during water-sports in Goa. I have seen the panoramic view of forest of flames by watching the back-wood from the cliff & walking alone in the woodland at night at Polo Forest. So I have already been at thrilling travel destinations. I have experienced the nuance of nature. I am sort of person who likes everything so I will enjoy everything and every place because each nuance of nature is vibrant, magnificent, spellbound and so on. Adjectives will be finished , but the adoration of nature will not.

Still If I amalgamate all the words given by my friend then the first spot come into my mind is Hell :D. Yeah the Inferno. As per lore, I have heard that person get fried in evaporated oil and many similar stuff happens there. So if it is matter of thrill, I don't think anything can be more thrilling than that :) Well, I am person who like peace so for sure if it is about long stay, I prefer heaven only, but just for expedition why not do something unique? Let's go to inferno, experience something uncommon, get thrilled and come back home to write new blog on my experience at Inferno. ;) So would you like to be my pal for the expedition to Hell??
