MY MEMORIES OF BOMBAY LIFE


MEMORIES OF MUMBAI LIFE

I was promoted on transfer to VSNL office during 1985 and
I was hesitating to accept the offer due to lack of fluency in
Hindi and drive against the south Indian by shiva Sena

I was given  a portion of the flat  in VSNL quarters  by one
Of the Engineer incharge who was from Chennai VSNL
By that time Shiva sena’s activities  were in the high
Altitude and south Indians especially Malayalees  were
Attacked  . There was a reason behind its attack on
Malayalle . Tamilians , Telugu people and kannadigas will
Adjust to the place and situation and freely mingle with
Maharashtrian where as the malayalee will keep a separate
Identity and will not mingle with the people there .

Behind the Pantnagar , Ghatgopar quarters there was
One Shiva Sena party office and tamil people never
Used to go through that street . One my colleague
Has warned me not to go to that street by wearing
Dhotis because they can identify me easily as south
Indian.  But I boldly went near their office wearing
\dhotis and applying Ashes on my fore head . Nothing
Has happened except some people in the shiva sena
Office looking at me Strangely as if though they are seeing
A strange animal .
