World's fastest learner
Its very interesting story but true in nature. Recently our admin team encountered with probably the world's fastest learner at Drishtee's head office in Noida Sector-62. Can you believe the person that is being mentioned here as world's fastest learner was an "Angoothachaap (Illiterate person)?" Amazing, isn't it. Let me break this interesting "Breaking News" on Drishtee Times. One of our support staff recently was down with heavy fever, body ache and headache. Being a resident of Delhi, I and some of the other members at head office, jokingly, terrorized him of suffering from the deadly swine flue. Though the support staff couldn't understand the compilation and complications of H1N1 virus, but he decided to skip office till recovery. The admin Team was forced for a makeshift arrangement of a support staff. The cleanliness of the entire office and toilets was the responsibility of the above mentioned support staff.
The Support Staff that Admin team hired for one day with Major Saheb
The admin team hired a temporary support staff for one day as they couldn't leave the entire premises unclean. The temporary support staff worked hard for the entire day trying to match the skills and potential of the regular one. He did a fine job and in the evening claimed his daily wage. After showering some butter-mixed word on this temporary support staff, the admin controller Major saheb (that is how Major Satyevir Singh Grewal, controller, Admin is called in the office) prepared his bill and forward it for receiving at the reception desk. After giving a bashful smile, this temporary staff enquired every face present at the reception desk. I thought he was in no mood to show off his signature in front of too many people present there. May be he was skeptical of his signature being copied and later used for emptying out his bank balance..haa..haaa.. (That's the Natwarlal effect).
Name prcticed on the palm by the temporary support staff
And the Autograph : Signature of the temporary support staff on his wage slip
"Arre! Sign kar yaar," major saheb retorted. Sir, Mujhe sign karna nahi aata" (I don't know signing), "Padhna Likhna Nahi Janta" (I am not educated), "Angootha Lagaunga" (will give a thumb impression on the bill), replied Ramu. "Kaya Baat Karta hai yaar, apne aap ko hi gali de raha hai. Kisne kaha ki tujhe Naam likhna nahi aata? Naam likhne ke liye Padha Likha hona jaroori nahi hai. Naam bata tere? (What are you talking friend, abusing yourself. Who told you that you do not know how to write your name? One needn't be educated just to write his name. Tell me your name?), Major saheb enquired in his lovely Rajasthani dialect. Again with a great smile, the temporary support staff replied, "RAMU." Now Major Saheb began "Operation Educate Ramu." Virtually there is no space for word "Impossible" in the dictionary of an army man (that is what Major saheb decided do show Ramu and that is what I had heard from my father throughout my life). Major Saheb wrote Ramu on the left palm of Ramu and orderd (assuming Ramu as his soldier) him to practice his name, written in Hindi. Interestingly, like a order obliging soldier, Ramu in the first attempt wrote his name on the palm like an educated man. Almost every body present at that time was shocked with the skills of Ramu. Ramu too was happy and willingly gave some of his snaps for Drishtee Times. "Ab mat bolna ki main anpadh hoon", advised major saheb to Ramu. So, Drishtee Connects communities village by village, members of Drishtee family are trying to connect people with education. CHEERS.....
