This word is originates from one of the most famous festival of Hindu Myth- Mahashivratri.
Although its not common in India but is very famous in North India. Kawad- This is basically a rally of devotees of Lord Shiva. In this one all the pilgrims go to Haridwar from different places, gathers their and collect the Ganga jal in Kawad. Then they worship the Ganga river and carry that holy water to their places and do pooja of Lord Shiva. This rally continues nearly for 20days.
Like all others, this rally is also having is bad effects. And it directly strikes to normal life in North ( delhi n NCR region). Here the roads destined to Haridwar gets closed. So many highways and small roads are closed. Mainly NH-24 is affected badly. All the heavy loaded trucks get diverted on NH-24.
Now let me tell you all y im writing all these. Actuly my office is on one side of NH-24 whereas i stay on the other. So daily i have to face a jam of about 1hr. It sucks man!!
Even the traffic in Noida and Ghaziabad is hopeless. No one is having traffic sense in these regions. Everyone here is the King. sabke BAAP ka rasta hai. No one cares for others. Today Noida is having one of the widest roads in India. But the people here have the narrowest thinking. No rules nothing. Police wala hath dikhaye toh rukana toh door uske upar gaddi chadha dete hai. People here dont think of Signals. They are only for show purpose. Dikhava hai.
Principle goes like this- If signal is Green then its your turn and if it is RED then obviously its your turn. so Traffic Jam has to be there.
This is the situation in general. And now this Kawad...vaat lag chuki hai puri... To reach office is a battle with your own patience and sweat. The most interesting thing is Baarish ka koi namo nishan nahi hai yaha. buri halat ho jati hai.... so sirf garmi and passine.
Bhagwan jane kab tak chalega aise....
everyone here must be given Lessons on traffic rules n regulations.
If the same will continue tarffic jam and accident scenes will increase naturally.
okie then bye...n tc.
Things that make me happy...(9/365)
