Desperado come to senses

Today one more kind soul amongst us departed away.We were travelling from Chandigarh to Delhi on NH22.A political heavyweight was travelling in Honda CRV.The red lights on the vehicle blinking and making gruffy noises as if someone was struggling between life and death in the hospital.One Gypsy in front and another on the back of Honda were part of that entourage.Gun totting policemen ready to assault in the black scarf on the head were appearing more like devil than security officers. These are the people who believe in political extremism. A show of threatening and coercive hard power. As if the wolf has come out of den,grinning teeth and reddish eyes creating claustrophobia on the roads.Such is the breed of todays statesman.

Victim of this were two young men riding a bike,when they panicked with this threatening vocalization and collided with another car traveeling at a speed of 90 km/hr.Such high was impact that the bike went off in the air and these two performing actual vault with several twists and flips in the air,Landing on the ground with great thud. Elbow bone out of its joint and skull open, pillion rider went straight to heaven on the spot.The other one half dead or half alive, gasping for breath and twitching of an eye looking at the sky unawares.Extreme rosy hopes shattered for the youths carrying colourful Lilliput clothes lying scattered on the roadside.What an extreme way to die on road in a democracy by the people, for the people, of the people.Does 184 or 177 of Motor Vehicle act will be used to penalise the police drivers by finining them to maximum of rs.1000 or let them go scot free to intimidate another life on the road.

"Sorrow comes to all, and to the young it comes with bittered agony because it takes them unawares" a quote by Abrahm Lincoln comes to my mind.
