Reminiscences Of My Students' Exemplary Behaviour
A few students got up at 5 A.M. to study
and went to bed after 11 P.M.completing Home Work.
They would be absent to Science Practicals
and recorded in their notebooks the readings of others.
When they were taken on tours to other States,
with bare hands they would enter the bus
and with bags of stolen goods they returned.
They would blow kisses at girls and receive in plenty.
Before they played games in tournaments,
they would take hot drinks along with their teachers.
Some boys of the suppressed classes would let loose
vulgar jokes on girls of other classes and sparked fire.
My students wouldn't give seats to the old in buses.
'Why shouldn't these dying ones wait and catch an empty bus? '
they would say but let the fairones to take their seats soon.
They would identify the bluffing teachers and be his friends.
The girls couldn't be advised against meeting of boy friends.
They would chop off a bunch of hair themselves
and put the blame on the strict teachers
and brought the media to torn them into pieces.
I don't hesitate to reminisce some of their progress in life.
Most of them had purchased jobs like drivers, conductors,
the serving nurses, electricians, and constables and so on.
A few had climbed to the top due to reservations or donations.
