Let us be the change we want to see.

From 4th April onwards my days are spent in scanning and awarding marks to the answer sheets of +2 council examinees. It is in the administrative block of V.D. Autonomous College at Jeypore. There I along with around 60 of other examiners am toiling hard to finish our valuation assignments as soon as possible and so that we can get relieved from the tedious work at the earliest. 

Valuation of answer sheets requires great concentration and persistent efforts. The long hours of valuation duty are naturally punctuated with visits to the washroom when the bladder gets full beyond toleration. But the entry into the washroom of that college will fill your nostrils with the worst kind of smell of stale urine as a result, if you are a male, reflexively you will hold your nostrils closed in one hand and the other hand will guide your penis to pass the urine. But if you are a female then perhaps the horrible alkaline smell of putrefied urine will call both of your hands to close your nostrils tightly to save your lungs & soul. The condition of the washroom becomes very unhygienic because everyday more than 200 bladders get emptied there for more than three times a day but no sanitary measures are taken by the college administration such as flushing the washroom with antiseptic………… 

I condemned the college administration for the washroom but to what extent is it logical and sensible?
In India Gandhi brought freedom and the whole country is indebted to him for all times to come. Most of the time, we fold our hands before the statue of Gandhi but shut our eyes to Gandhism. We never follow the ideals of Gandhi which says, “Do your work yourself”. We know to urinate but don’t know to flush it with antiseptic. We wait for Government provisions & schemes to solve our own problems.  

Let us be the change we want to see.
