[Indian Princess]

jaane kitani hi der Niharika wahi padi rahi, jab raat ke khane ke liye Bhushan use bulane aaya to usake kafi der tak darwaja pitane par bhi jab Niharika ne darwaja nahi kholaa to Bhushan niche se Sulochana ko bulaa laya. Sulochana ne aur naukar ki madad se darwaja khulwaya. farsh par padi Niharika ko dekh kar Sulochana chinta me pad gayi , Doctor ko fauran bulaya gaya. Doctor ne jaanch karane ke baad kisi sadme ki vajah se behosh hona bataya. injection de kar doctor chala gaya aur Niharika ke liye sirf aaraam ka khyaal rakahane ko bol gaya.

subah jab Niharika ki neend khuli to ghar ki ek mahila naukarani waha baithi huyi thi, usane fauran Sulochana ko is baat ki suchanaa de di.Sulochana ne aane k baad Niharika se usaki tabiyat ka haal puchhaa aur usake behosh hone kaa karan bhi. jab Niharika ne use raat ka saaraa kissaa bataayaa to Sulochana ki hairani ka to thikaanaa hi naa raha.usane Niharika ki baat ko sunane ke baad khidaki ko aur khidaki ke bahar dhyaan se dekhaa. vo khidaki 2nd floor par thi aur usake niche aisaa kuchh bhi nahi thaa jisake upar koyi khada ho sake. magar Niharika ne ye sab baate pure hosh-o-hawaas me sekhane ka daawaa kiya tab Sulochana ne ye saari baate Rai sahab se kah sunayi. unhone bhi tajjub jataaya par baat ki gambheerataa ko samajhate hue turant Police ko inform kar diyaa.

police ki taraf se jo officer bhejaa gaya thaa vo shayad iss “puchh taachh” type kaam me jyada interested dikha. usane mahaj khana-purti karate hue thode-bahut sawaal Niharika aur ghar ke saare naukaro se karake, uchit karywahi ka aashwasan deke chalataa banaa. Rai sahab ne ghar ke security guards ko bhe chaukasi baratane ka vishesh nirdesh de diyaa. Ye sab hote hote naashte ka time ho gaya thaa Niharika bhi raat ki bhukhi thi to Sulochana ne fatafat naashtaa lagawaa diyaa. naashte ki table par aaj chhote malik bhi baithe the, jo lagatar Niharika ko hee ghoore jaa raha thaa. usaki nigaaho kit apish Niharika ko apane pure sareer par mehsoos ho rahi thi. usaki khaamosh nigahe lagataar kuchh aisa kah rahi thi jo Niharika samajhanaa chah kar bhi nahi samajh paa rahi thi.

Rai sahab! jo kaafi der se ye sab dekh rah the unhone baato ka silsilaa shuru karate hue us naujawaan ko sambodhit karate hue puchhaa…… raat me tum aaraam se soye the ki nahi Rohit! hmmmm…. bolkar Rohit ne jawab diyaa. achchhaa to Rohit naam hai isskaa….Niharika ne apane mann me sochaa. are soye kaha the? ye to raat bhar apanaa vahi tun-tunaa bajaaye rahe the… bhushan ne shikayati lahaje me kaha. Bhushan! use guitar kahate hai ….. Sulochana ne kaha. are oo susaraa jaune kuchh hoye…. magar humaraa to neende hee kharab kar dete hain Chhote bhaiyya ji…Bhushan ne fir se apani kheej ko jahir kiyaa. Sulochana ne iss baar kuchh aur kadi najaro se usako ghuraa to vo sakapakaa kar kitchen me chala gaya.

unase alag rah bhi nahi sakataa aur jhooth-mooth kaa muh bhee banaataa hai……Rai sahab ne muskuraa kar kaha. Tabhi Rai sahab ke gate keeper ne kisi CID officer ke aane ki ittilaa di jo Kundan Daas murder case ke silsile me Niharika se milanaa chahtaa hai ………….

unhe living room me baithaa kar Chaay vagairah pilaao tab tak Niharika nashtaa karke aa rahi hai........................................................................................................ Rai
sahab ne ek baar Niharika ki taraf dekh kar bola jo ab kuchh fikramand dikh rahi thi. Aap fikra mat kariye, aap par koyi dabaaw nahi padane diya jayegaa....................................... Rai sahab ne Niharika ko chinta mukt karane ki
koshish karate hue kaha. Kal raat ki baat ko na batanaa jyada theek rahegaa, vaise bhee vo shayad tumhare thake aur dare hue dimaag ka BHRAM raha hoga..................................................................................... Sulochana ne apani baat rakhate hue
kahaa. Par Niharika ko to yakeen hai naa ki jo kuchh usane dekha tha vo vaastvikata thee na ki uska BHRAM ab Rai sahab ne kaha. Khud Niharika ab soch me pad gayi thi ki kal raat wali ghatanaa usakaa
BHRAM tha ya vastvikataa?

Inhee sab baato ko sochati huyi vo living room me aa pahuchee. Vaha use vo cid officer chaay peetaa huaa mila. Niharika ko dekhate hee usane chaay ka cup center table par rakhate hue ek muskurahat ke saath usakaa swaagat jaisa kiya aur apanaa haath aage badhate hue kaha, Ji! Naacheez ko BHAARAT SHARMA kahate hai, mai cid department me DSP ki chhoti si post par naukari kartaa hu. Chand chhote- mote case suljhane ki vajah se mera department mujhe bada kabil officer samajh baitha hai. Do roj pahale pahale hue Kundan murder case ki jaanch ab humaree nigrani me hogi aur mai is case ka Officer incharge rahaungaa. Niharika ne usake badhe hue haath se apanaa haath milane ki jagah Namaskaar se uskaa abhivaadan kiya........................... Apane badhe hue haath ko vapas karate hue vo samajh gaya ki ye ladki abhee bade
shaharo ke taur tariko se anjaan hai.

Maine apana statement pahle hee de diya tha ab aur kya puchhana chahate hain aap! Niharika ne living room ke ek sofe par baithate hue puchhaa. Vo to ek sadharan policiyaa formality thee madam, ab ye case cid ke dayare me aa gaya hai. Aapkaa bayaan Kundan daas ji ki personality ke hisaab se fit nahi baith raha. Bhaarat ne aage bolate hue kaha, aapke kathan anusaar kundan daas ne us kaale kapade wale se bachane ke liye aapki gardan par chaku rakha tha jisaki ummeed kisi sadak chhaap gunde se to ki ja sakati hai par Kundan daas jaise sabhya shahari se nahi. Ek baar ko ye maana ja sakataa hai ki kisi musibat me padkar vo shayad aisa kar sakate the magar apani jeb me chaku rakhana..................................................................................................... ye to kundan
daas jaisee mash'hur shakhsiyat ke baare me sochana bhee jara tedhee kheer hai.

Ji dekhiye! Mai na to Kundan daas ko janti hu naa hee us kaale kapade wale ko. Meri badkismati kahiye jo mai us raat train ke usi compartment me thee jaha ye sab ghatanaa ghati. Aapke kundan daas ne to meri gardan par chaku rakhate hue mujhe apani dhaal banaa'na chaah raha thaa, usi ke chaku se mile ghaav ka nishaan aapko meri gardan par dikhayi de jayegaa jise aap ek sabhya shahari ka darjaa de rahe hain. Niharika ne apani baat khatm karate hue kaha. Yahi to vo baate hain jinaki vajah se State government ne ye case bina koyi der kiye hume saunp diyaa hai............................................................................................ Bhaarat ne chaay khatm karate hue
kaha.

Tabhee Rai sahab apani wheel chair par waha pahuch gaye aur Bhaarat se mukhatib hote hue bole........
Apani jaankari ke dayare ko badhaiye Dsp sahab! Kundan daas ke upar humaare hee NGO ne kayi baar gareebo ki jameene hadapane ke case darj karaye hain. Apani buildings ko banwane ke liye mauke ki

jameen ko saste se saste daamo par hadapane ke liye vo har hath'kande apnaane wala aadami thaa. Magar kisi bhee case me aaj tak kuchh bhee aisa sabit nahi huaa Rai sahab............................................................................................ Bhaarat ne Rai sahab se aage
badhkar haath milaate hue kahaa.

Aapase pahale kabhee mulakaat to nahi huyi magar aapke baare me bahut sunaa hai Rai sahab, aur yakeen maaniye jitanaa bhee sunaa hai sab achchha hee sunaa hai....................................................................................... Bhaarat ne muskurate hue kaha.
Maine bhee aapake baare me achchha hee sun kar baithaa hua hu DSP sahab........................................................................................................ Rai sahab ne pratyuttar
me muskurate hue hee kaha. jyada din nahi beete hai jab akhbaaro me ek yuwaa police officer dwaraa Co- operative bank ghotaale ke gunaah'gaaro ko apani sujh bujh aur bahaduri se pakadwane ki khabar se bhare pade the. President medal jeet kar aapane na kewal apane maa baap ka balki humare pure shahar ka naam roshan kar diya Apani baat ko jaari rakhate hue Rai sahab ne kaha. Aap Kundan daas ke
dusare rango ko bhee dekhane ki koshish kariye DSP sahab!


Humari najaro se koyi bhee rang nahi chhup saktaa Rai sahab bas chand dino ki baat hai, mai fir aaungaa Aapase aur Niharika ji se milane abhee to kuchh aur jaruri kaam yaad aa gaya hai............................................................................................... Itanaa kahkar vo
dono ki taraf haath hilaa kar living room se chalaa gayaa.

Rai sahab ke chehare par ek muskaan khel rahi thi. vo samajh rahe the ki ye insaan jo abhi abhi yaha se uth kar gaya hai vo itani aasaani se man’ne walo me se nahi hai.unhone Niharika ki taraf dekha aur bole “aap in sab baato se pareshaan mat honaa, bas chand dino me ye bhee apani khaana purti karake case rafa dafaa kar denge. ab aap agar comfortable feel kar rahi ho to jara mujhe saari baate tafseel se bataiye.”
“ji puchhiye! kya puchhana chahte hai aap”Niharika ne kaha.
RaiSahab:-“kuchh aisee baate jo abhi tak aapane inn Police waalo ko bhi nahi batayi ho ”.

Niharika:-“jitanaa maine dekhaa tha aur jitana mujhe yaad tha vo sab maine bata diyaa hai Sir! mujhe oyi bhee baat chhipaane ki jarurat hee nahi thi, so maine kuchh bhi nahi chhpaate hue sab bataa diyaa.”

RaiSahab:-“fir bhi kuchh to aisaa hoga jo tumane baad me notice kiyaa hoga, achchhaa ye batao jab Kundan daas ne aapko apane chaku se cover kiyaa huaa thaa to us hatyaaraa ne jo fire kiyaa thaa vo tumhe bachaate hue kiyaa tha yaa aapko aisaa laga ki aapko goli lage ya naa lage usko koyi fark nahi padataa.”

Niharika:- “nahi nahi Sir! us aadami ne bade hee sadhe taur par bina kisi hadbadahat ke nishanaa lagay tha, shayad vo confident raha hogaa apane nishane ke prati.”

Rai Sahab:-“hmmm! ye baat to aapaki ekdum sahi lagati hai……achchhaa ye bataiye ki pure vakaye ke dauraan usane kuchh aisaa bola ya kahaa thaa jo aapko ajeeb lagaa thaa”.

Niharika:- “nahi Sir! usane pure vakaye ke dauraan ek shabd bhee nahi bola thaa, usake haav bhaav me ajeeb see tasalli thi..................................... koyi hadbadahat usake kisi bhi action se dikhayi hee nahi pad rahi thi. usane pure
itminaan se Kundan daas ke samane nihatthaa khada thaa.”

RaiSahab:-“(hairaani se)Nihatthaa khaa tha..... isakaa kyaa matlab hai?”

Niharika:- “jab vo cabin me ghusaa thaa to usake haath me kuchh bhi nahi thaa, Kundan daas ne jab meri garden par chaku rakhaa tab kahi jakar usane apani jeb se Revolver nikaalaa thaa.Kunadan daas ke upar fire karane ke baad usane fir us Revolver kaa istemaal bhi nahi kiyaa thaa par Sir! vo jo bhi thaa,
Kundan daas se be-intehaa nafrat kartaa thaa, usaki aankho me mujhe puri duniyaa-jahaan ki nafarat dikhayi pad rahi thi.”

RaiSahab:- “khair vo to mujhe news paper me padh kar hee samajh me aa gaya thaa…… magar kyaa usane us dauraan kuchh bhi nahi bola thaa?”

Niharika:- “bola thaa naa Sir! jab vo kundan daas par chaku ke vaar kiye jaa raha thaa tab maine darr ke mare apani aaknhe band kar lee thi….cabin me jab Kundan daas ki chekhe aani band ho gayi thi tab maine aankhe khol kar dekhaa to vo mere saamane vaise hee shaant mudra me baithaa thaa, mujhe darraa hua dekh kar usane mujhe tasalli dee ki vo mujhe kuchh nahi karegaa aur Kundan daas ke saath jo huaa vo usako usi layak bata raha thaa.”

RaiSahab:- “hmmm! usaki aawaaj dubaaraa sunogi to kyaa usako pahchaan logi?”

Niharika:-“mai guarantee se kuchh nahi kah sakati Sir! usane behad dheemee aawaaj me bola thaa jaise koyi fisfusaa kar baat kartaa ho aur vaise bhee train ki aawaaj me vo bhi koyi bahut saaf nahi suni thi.”


“agar aap dono ko koyi dikkat naa ho to kya mai bhi aap logo ke saath yaha baith sakataa hu”? us nau- javaan ne andar aate hue behad masumiyat se puchhaa.

RaiSahab:- “are chhote! bhala aapko humaare paas aane ke liye ijaazat ki jarurat kab se padane lagi.”

Ye Rohit tha jo iss vakt kuchh normal saa bartaav kar raha tha. usake aate hee Niharika kuchh asahaj mehsoos karane lagi, karati bhi kyo naa…..Rohit ki najare fir se use he ghure jaa rahi thi. Rai sahab ki tej najaro se ye baat chhupi na rah saki. Unhone Rohit ko apani wheel chair ke paas wale sofe par baithane kaa ishaaraa kiyaa jise manate hue Rohit wahi baith gaya. Niharika usaki har gati vidhi bade dhyaan se dekh rahi thi aur rah rah kar use hairaani ho rahi thi ki kal subah us par pagalo ki tarah jhapattaa marane wala insaan aaj itanaa sabhya vyohaar kaise kar raha hai?

Rai sahab ne usaki sahajataa ko vapas late hue bolana shuru kiyaa…. “Niharika! aap humaare chhote bhai se to mil hee chuki hongi, ye humaare ajeej, farma-bardaar aur behad hee dulaare chhote bhai hain.”

“to ye chhote bhai hain”…… Niharika ne mann hee mann me sochaa par fir ye eklaute varies kaise hue bhala….. Rai sahab ki bhee to santaan hogi hee….. usaki soch ne usako aur uljhaaya magar usane mere liye ye sab bekaar ki baate hain bhala mai ye sab kyo sochu…..jaisaa vichaar karake apane sar ko jhatakate hue Rai sahab se apane kamare jaane ki ijaazat maangi aur uthane ka upkram karane lagi.


Usako uthataa dekh Rohit ekdum se khada ho gaya aur Niharika ke paas aakar…ekdum paas aakar usako kareeb se dekhane laga. ek baar fir se Niharika asahaj ho gayi. Rai Sahab ne usako “naa darre” ka ishaara kiyaa magar Niharika ki shakl se usakaa darr saaf dikh raha thaa. Rohit usake ekdum paas khada thaa, vo usako chhu to nahi raha thaa magar Niharika ko vo apane shareer par chhaaya huaa sa hee mehsoos ho raha thaa. Rai sahab ne Rohit ko pukara magar Rohit ne jaise unhe sunaa hee naa ho, vo ektak Niharika ko dekh raha thaa fir Rai sahab ke dubaaraa pukarane par usane Bolana shuru kiyaa…….

Rohit:- “bhaiyaa! ye meri Manasi hee to hai…… vahi cheharaa, vahi aankhe , vahi nain-nakhsha…..ye vahi hai bhaiyaa…vahi hai… meri Manasi….. aap log chaahe kitanaa bhee kahe par ye meri Manasi hee hai.”

ye sab kahate kahate Rohit kaa cheharaa aawesh me laal hotaa jar aha thaa aur Niharika ki dil ki dhadkan fir kisi anhoni ki aashankaa se jor-2 se badhane lagi thi.Rai sahab ne bhi iss baat ko dhyaan me late hue turant Bhushan ko aawaaj dee, jise sunkar Bhushan bhee daudata chala aaya. Rohit ki mutthiyaa bhich chuki thi aur usakaa sharer kaanpane laga thaa jise dekh kar Niharika ki ghuti huyi cheekh nikal padi aur vo vaha se peechhe ki taraf hatanaa chah rahi thi tab tak Rohit ne usakaa haath pakad liyaa aur “mujhe chhod kar mat jaao Manasi….plss Manasi!” kahane laga. aaj usaki aawaaj me junoon kam aur tadap jyada thi. ye aisi tadap thee ise dekh kar Niharika behad ajeeb awasthaa me fansee huyi mehsoos

kar rahi thi. use eksaath darr aur karunaa dono kaa milaa julaa ehsaas ho raha thaa…… shayad yahi karunaa hee to kisi bhee naari ki sabase badee ‘shakti aur kamjori’ dono hoti hai.

Bhushan:- “chhote bhaiyyaa! inhe chhodiye , ye Manasi ji nahi hain, Sahab ji! jaldi se Doctor sahab ko bulwaaiye….chhote bhaiyyaa par fir se dauraa pad raha hai ”

Bhushan ne jaise hee ye baat kahi Niharika ka dhyaan Rohit ke chehare ki taraf gaya, usake muh se ab jhhaag nikalanaa shuru ho gaya thaa. Rai sahab ne baaki naukaro tathaa Sulochana ko aawaaj lagate hue Doctor ko bulaane ke liye kaha. 4-5 naukar bhagate hue living room me aa gaye aur Rohit ke haath pair pakadate hue usako uthaa kar usake kamare ki taraf le jaane ki koshish karane lage. Rohit ki aankhe ab tak mundane lagi thi aur usakaa puraa sharer rah rah kar jhatake khaane laga thaa. usake muh se naikalane waala jhaag ab aur bhee gaadhi shakl ikhtiyaar kar chukaa thaa. Sulochana, jo ab kamare me pahuch chuki thi usane daud kar Rohit ke marm-sthaan par haath rakh kar usako shaant karane ki oshish kari. par aaj to ye prakriyaa bhee be asar sabit ho rahi thi………………

Jaise taise ghar ke saare naukar Rohit ko usake kamare tak le gaye ab tak Rohit puree tarah se murchhit awastha me pahuch chukaa thaa, sirf usaka sharer me rah rah ke jhatake usake “daure” me hone ki pushti kar rahe the. Rohit ka kamara ghar ke first floor par tha magar ghar me elevator (lift) hone ki vajah se Rai sahab bhee vaha pahuch gaye the unaki bechaini is samay dekhane layak thee. Saaf pata chal raha thaa ki vo apane chhote bhai se kitanaa pyaar karate hain. Saare naukar Rohit ke haath-pair ki maalish karane lage the, Sulochana apane phone se lagatar Doctor ke touch me thee aur baki logo ko standing instruction de rahi thi.

 

[Indian Princess]

Thodi der me Doctor bhee apani chhoti see team ke saath waha pahuch gaye aur haalaat ko samajhate hue unaki team fatafat Rohit ke upchaar me lag gayi. Doctor ne Rohit ko koyi injection lagayaa jisase thodi hee der me Rohit ke sharer me lagataar aa rahe jhatako me kami aani shuru ho gayi tathaa dheere-2 vo ekdum shaant ho gaya aur shayad dawaa ke prabhaav me so bhee gaya.Niharika bhee iss saare hungaame ko Rohit ke kamare ke darwaje par khadi dekh rahi thee. Vo bechaari is saari ghatana ke liye khud ko kos rahi thee. usakaa komal hriday usaki aankho ke jariye aansoo bahaata huaa apani sanvedana prakat kar raha thaa.

Rohit ke sharer me uthee huyi aithan ab shaant ho gayi thi, usakaa sharer ab dheelaa pad chukaa thaa. Doctor ne sabako kamare se bahar jaane ko kah kar khud bhee Rai sahab aur Sulochana ke saath bahar aa gaya.
Doctor :-“itane din baad achanak aaj kaise ye dauraa pad gaya? Kiss baat se ye itanaa uttejit ho gaya thaa? ”
Rai Sahab:- “kya bataye Doctor sahab! Kal se ye Niharika ko dekh kar pareshaan ho gaya hai, kal subah jaane kaise ye apane kamare se nikal kar usake kamare me chala gaya…… fir Niharika ko Manasi-2 kah kar usase lipat gaya thaa….Sulochana aur Bhushan ne kisi tarah usako shaant kiyaa saari raat ye soya
nahi…neend ki goli jo ye aapake kahe anusaar khataa hai vo bhee kal be-asar sabit huyi….subah tak bechare Bhushan ne ise jaise taise sulaa diya… uthane ke baad ye kaafi had tak normal thaa….humane bhee ise koyi panic attack maan kar ignore kar diyaa.................................................................................... abhee thodi der pahale tak ye ekdum shaant aur
decently behave kar raha thaa….magar Niharika ko dekhate hue jaane kyaa soche jaa raha thaaaur finally ye sab ho gaya.”
Doctor :- “ye Niharika kaun hain” ?
Niharika jo itani der se khamosh khadi sab sun rahi thee…. ne aage badh kar Doctor ko apane aap se parichit karwaya.
Doctor :- “kyaa aap inase pahale mil chuki hain?” Niharika:- “ji nahi.”
Doctor:- (Rai sahab se)…. “aap log agar Rohit ki bhalayi chahate hain to kuchh din ke liye Niharika ji ko

Manasi bana dijiye”.
Ye sun kar Niharika chaunk uthee aur Rai sahab tathaa sulochana ki taraf dekhane lagi…. Usakaa chaukana dekh kar Rai sahab ne hee Doctor se isaki vajah puchhee.
Doctor:- “ye to aap log bhee dekh hee rahe honge ki jab se vo hadasaa Rohit ke saath huaa hai ye kabhi itanaa excited (uttejit) nahi huaa jitana aap kal yaa aaj dekh rahe hain…..isako daure to padate the magar jyadatar ye shaant hee rahataa thaa….isane kisi ke saath bhee koyi buraa bartaaw nahi kiyaa bas apane aap me hee khoyaa rahataa thaa par Niharika ji ke aane ke baad se jo changes aye hai vo medical point of view se ek saath negative aur positive dono hain….. negative iss liye ki …itani jyaadaa uttejana brain- hammerage ka kaaran bhee ban sakati hai aur Positive isliye ki pahali baar koyi aise vajah bhee dekhane ko mili jo inhe uttejit kar sakati hai…… dimaag ko aisi hee uttejit awasthaa me vapas stable(sthir) kiyaa ja sakataa hai. ”
Rai sahab :- “mai abhee bhee aapaki baat samajh nahi paaya Doctor sahab!..................................................................................................... akhir Niharika ko bhala
hum kaise Manasi bana sakate hain? Hum log to khud bhee manasi ke baare me khuchh khaas nahi janate…. Fir bhaa hum kaise Rohit ko ye yakeen dilaa payenge ki ye Niharika nahi Manasi hai?”
Doctor:-“aap logo ko kuchh nahi karanaa, sivay Niharika ko Manasi kah kar bulaane ke sivaa….baaki ki baate Rohit kaa unstable mind (asthir mastishk) use khud yaken dilaayegaa........................................................................................................ ye ek aakhiri koshish hai jo
hum Rohit ko theek karane ke liye kar sakate hain…mere khyaal se iss koshish me koyi harj nahi hai….Niharika ji ko bhee isame koyi aapatti nahi honi chahiye.”
ye kahate hue Doctor ne Niharika ki taraf prashaatmak mudraa me dekhaa jise dekh kar Niharika koyi jawaab nahi de paayi, vo confuse see vahi khadi rahi. Doctor ne Rai sahab aur Sulochana ki taraf dekhate hue bola “aap log bhali bhaanti iss baare me soch-vichaar kar lijiye aur ye prayaas karake dekh lijiye”.
Itanaa kah kar Doctor ek baar fir se Rohit ke paas jaa kar usaki nabj vagairah check karake aur kuchh dawaayo ke naam ek parchi par likh kar chala gaya.

Doctor ke jaane ke baad Rai sahab, Sulochana aur Niharika ke beech ek lambee khaamoshi bani rahi jise iss baar khd Niharika ne todaa…..
Niharika :- “mai Manasi banana ke liye taiyyaar hum agar ye manasi hain kaun? Kyaa mai vakayee unake jaisee dikhati hu?”
Usakaa jawaab aur sawaal ek saath sun kar Rai sahab aur Sulochana ki shakl par chamak aa gayi.. Rai sahab ne to khushi ke maare apani wheel chair aage badhaate hue Niharika kaa haath thaamate hue usako baar-baar thanks bolane lage. Niharika ne unhe aashwast karate hue Manasi ko lakar apanaa sawaal fir se dohraaya.

Rai sahab :- “tumhe Manasi ke saath-2 aur bhee kayi baate bataaungaa par aao hum yaha se study room me chale”. Sulochana ne bhee haami bharate hue Rai sahab ki wheel chair ko study room me le aayi. Study room me rakhe sofe par baithate hue Sulochana ne Rai sahab ki wheel chair ko bhee apane paas hee khada kiyaa… gala saaf kar ke Rai sahab ne bolana shuru kiyaa
Rai sahab:- “ samajh nahi aa raha ki kaha se shuru karu, shayad ekdum shuru se shuru karanaa hee thek rahegaa. Humaaraa khaandaan kaa naam hameshaa se hee bade aur ra’ees (rich) khaandaan me shumaar hotaa aaya hai. Jab hum chhote the…… lagbhag 13-14 saal ke tab humaari maa ji ko ek asaadhya rog ne apanaa shikaar bana liyaa..... pitaa ji ne saari duniyaa me unakaa ilaaj karwaaya magar kahi baat nahi
bain… maa ji ko bhi apani mrityu najdeek lagane lagi thee to unhone mere bachpan ki chintaa karate hue apani ek saheli jinhone apani parivaarik samasyaayo ke karan abhee tak shaadi nahi kari thee, se pitaa ji ki dusari shaadi karwaa dee…. Pita ji pahale to ye shadi nahi karanaa chahte par maa ki akhiri ichchhaa kaa maan rakhate hue unhone ye shaadi kar he li…… shaadi ke kuchh din baad maa chal basi.................................................................................................. meri
sauteli maa jinhe mai bade aadar se choti maa kahataa thaa ne mujhe bhar-poor pyaar diyaa….mujhe kabhi meri sagi maa ki kami nahi khalane dee. Kuchh saal baad chhoti maa ne mere chahete, mere pyaare pyaare bhai ko janm diyaa.”
“Matalab ye sautelaa bhai hai” Rai sahab ki baat sunate hue Niharika ne apae mann me sochaa. Rai sahab:-“ haa! Rohit meraa sautela bhai hai.”
Niharika chaunk gayi…… aur acharaj se Rai sahab ko dekhane lagi.
Rai Sahab:-“iatana hairan mat ho Niharika! Pahali-2 baar jab bhee koyi sunataa hai use aise hee hairaani

hoti hai aur vo yahi baat sochata hai jo abhi aap soch rahi hain…..to mere liye ye baat guess karanaa koyi badi baat nahi hai.”
Niharika ne jaise baat ko samajh liyaa….aur sahamati me apani garadan hilaa dee. Rai sahab ne apani baat ko aage jaari rakhate hue bolanaa shuru kiyaa…….
Rai sahab :- “shayad Rohit ki kismat me bhee humaari tarah apani sagi maa kaa pyaar nahi likhaa thaa….. usake janm ke kuchh din baad se hee chhoti maa bimaar rahane lagi…. Apani lambee bimaari ke dauraan vo kaafi kamjor rahane lagi thee….. maa ki mamta ko tarasataa Rohit apane bade bhai ki god me vo pyaar dhundhata thaa…..Pita ji , maa ki bimaari ki pareshaani me maa se pahale hee chal base….

Pure parivaar me Rohit ke liye bas mai hee rah gaya thaa…..usake liye maa ka honaa naa honaa ek samaan thaa…..vo mujhame hee apani maa aur pita ko dekhataa thaa…..mai college me apani padhaayi ke dauraan hee Sulochana se milaa….iss saundaryaa ki devi ne meraa dil churaa ke mujhe apanaa bana liyaa (ye kahate hue Rai sahab ne Sulochana ko bade pyaar se nihaara jisase aise gambheer mahoul me bhee sulochana sharmaye aur Niharika muskuraye binaa naa rah saki)

…sulochana me vo sab khubiyaa thee jo humaare khaandaan ki bahuo me honi chahiye….. maa ne bhee Sulochana se milkar apani raja mandi pradaan kar dee…..shaadi ke baad Sulochana ne pure ghar ko ummeed se badh kar pyaar diyaa….Rohit ko bhee jaise apani maa mil gayi ho….. maa bhee Sulochana ko apane Rohit se pyar bhara vyavhaar karataa dekh kar satusht thee magar ab bhee unhe koyi baat pareshaan karate thee… apanee aakhiri saans lete hue maa ne Rohit ki taraf bade hee karunaa mayi andaaj me dekhate hue mujhase Rohit kaa khyaal rakhane ko kahaa…..maine bhee maa ko aashwasan de diyaa magar maa ne puchhaa ki kal ko tere khud ke bachche ho jayenge tab bhee kyaa mai Rohit ka khyaal aise hee rakhungaa……

Mane maa ki mrityu ko unake liye sukhad banane aura pane upar chadhe hue unaki mamtaa ka karj chukaane kaa sochate hue unhe vachan de diyaa ki ‘aap chintaa naa kare maa! Mai taumraa nisantaan rahungaa aur Rohit ko hee apana beta maanungaa’…

Maa ki saanse jaise aisee hee kisi vachan ke liye ataki thee….apane chehare par santushti ke bhaav liye hue maa ne hameshaaa ke liye apani aankhe moond lee. ”

Itanaaa kah kar Rai sahab khaamosh ho gaye…pure kamare me ek ajeeb see khaamoshi chhaa gayi….jise sirf Sulochana ki siskakiyaa hee bhang kar rahi thee…..

Rai sahab:-“hum janate hai Sulochana! hum tumhaare gunaah-gaar hain…maa ko aisaa koyi bhee vachan dene se pahale hume aapai bhee rajamandi leni chahiye thee…. pr vakt aur haalaat hee kuchh aise the ki hum bhawanaao me bah gaye aur ma ko ye vachan de baithe……khud Rohit bhee humase iss baat par behad khafaa rahane laga thaa aur hajaaro baar hume ye vachan todane ke liye kahataa rahtaa thaa par hum aisaa karake apani Chhoti maa ko bhala kyaa muh dikhaate?”….

Niharika puri baat khaamoshi se sun rahi thee….usaki najaro me Rai sahab ki ijaat aur bhee badh gayi thee… Rai sahab ne baato kaa silsilaa aage badhaate hue Niharika se mukhatib hote hue fir se bolanaa shuru kiyaa…..

Rai sahab :- “ab raha sawaal Manasi kaun hai ? to usake baare me hume bhee jyada nahi pata… dar asal huaa yu thaa ki Haldwaani ke paas humaara ek farm house thaa jisaki dekh rekh humane pichhale kuch saalo se Rohit ke jimme kar rakhi thee….. pichhali garmiyo ke khatm hone tak vaha ki nayi fasalo ki bowaayi(seeding) apane saamane karwane ke liye rohit wahi gaya huaa thaa…. Lagbhag ek maheene baad vaha ke manager ka phone aaya ki Rohit pichhale ek hafte se laapata hai…. Ye sunkar hum pareshaan ho gaye aur fauran hum dono vaha ke liye nikal pade….. pure 8-9 ghante ke safar ke baad jab hum vaha pahuche to manager ne bataya ki local police me ittilaa de de gayi hai…aur puchhane par unhone bataya ki Rohit ko kisi ladaki ke saath dekha gaya thaa jisase aaj kal vo kaafi milataa julata thaa.

Police ne ek jale hue ghar se Rohit ko ghayal awasthaa me baramad kiyaa….usake sar par koyi gambheer

chot aayi thee jisai vajah se ye aaj iss haalat me hai. Hosh me aane kee baad ye baar baar kisi manasi ka jikra kartaa thaa …humane bhee us ladaki ke baare me pata karane ke liye kaafi koshish ki par koyi nateejaa nahi nilkalaa…. Vaha ke log sirf itaanaa hee bata paaye ki vo ladaki apane pitaa ke saath vaha kahi dusare shahar se aayi thee aur usakaa kisi se milana julana nahi thaa… pata nahi kaise Rohit usase milaa aur iss haalat me pahuch gaya. Kamala ki baat ye thee ki us makaan se kisi aur ki dead body bhee nahi mili…matlab vo jo bhee koyi thee von a sirf jindaa hai balki Rohit ki iss haalat ke liye jimmedaar bhee hai. ”

Itanaa kah kar Rai sahab khaamosh ho gaye….. fir Sulochana ne unako paani pilaayaa jise pikar Rai sahab ne fir se bolana shuru kiyaa

Rai sahab:- “aaj jab Doctor ne tumhaare rop me hume aashaa ki ek kiran dikhaayi hai to hum hee janate hai ki hum kitane khush hain aaj … Niharika! Agar tum humaare bhai ko theek karane me humaaree madad karogi to hum saari indagi tumhaare ehsaan mand rahenge.”

Itanaa kahate-2 Rai sahab ne Niharika ke samane apane dono haath jod liye……. Niharika ne bhee paniyaayi aankho se apani gardan ko sahmati me hilaa diyaa…….aur Rai sahab ko aise haath jodane ke liye manaa kar diyaa……

Vaise to Niharika ne haami bhar dee thee par usake swabhaav ko kuchh-2 samajhate hue Sulochana ne Niharika se puchh hee liyaa ki “kahi tum kisi dabaaw me to ye nahi kar rahi ho, agar tum mana bhi kar dogi to bhee hum tumhe koyi dosh nahi denge.”

Niharika:- “nahi-2 Sulochana ji! Maine soch samajh kar hee iss baat ke liye haami bhari hai…..bas mujhe aap log Rohit ji ke baare me bata dijiyegaa….. unake saath kaise baat karani hai aur kaise nahi. Vo kis baat se jyada uttejit ho jaate hai aur kisase nahi….. ‘Manasi’ banane ka natak karane par bhee to kayi baate aisi hongi jinkaa dhyaan rakhanaa hee padegaa.”
Rai Sahab:-“mere khyaal se hume ye baate Doctor sahab se hee samajh leni chahiye.” Sulochana:- “haa! Ye theek rahegaa”.
Aur usane doctor ko phne milaa kar Rai sahab ko thama diyaa
Rai Sahab :-“ hello Doctor sahab!(rai sahab ke chehare par khshi dekhate hee ban rahee thee)…..Niharika aapaki salah par kaam karane ke liye taiyaar ho gayi hai…… je haa! Usane khud he humase ye baat boli hai…humaraa koyi dabaaw nahi hai uspar.” Tabi Sulochana ne unhe tokate hue kaha “aap ye sab baate kyo kah rahe hain? Doctor ko bhala is baat se kyaa matlab ho sakata hai..”

Rai sahab:- “(mouth piece par haath rakhate hue)…. Are haa bhai! Mai to khushi me baukhala gaya hu shayad… (aur Doctor se mukhatib hote hue bolana shuru kiyaa)….. dar’asal maine is liye phone kiya hai ki Niharika ko Manasi bana kar Rohit ke samane pesh karate samay kin -2 baato kaa dhyaan rakhana chahiye padegaa.”

Doctor :-“(phone par Rai sahab se..) aap log sirf is baat ka dhyaan dijiyegaa ki Rohit ke saamane Niharika ko Manasi hee bulaaiyegaa….baki to sab kuchh dawaao aur other type of treatments se hee hogaa ….par ‘Manasi’ ke roop me hume Rohit ke dimaag stable karane ka jariyaa to milegaa hee.” ..itana kah kar kuchh aur baato ke baad Rai sahab ne phone rakh diya aur Niharika ko dekhate hue bole…

Rai Sahab:- “Niharka! Shayad aaj ke baad iss ghar me aapako koyi Niharika ke naam se nahi bulayegaa….. aap bhee iss baat kaa dhyaan rakhiyegaa ki Rohit ke samane aapako sirf aur sirf Manasi hee ban ke rahanaa hai…. Agar iss baat me jara bhee chook huyi to hum Rohit ko humeshaa ke liye kho denge…. To aap ek baar fir se apane mann ko pakkaa kar lijiye aur dridh-nischay ke saath hee iss baat par aage badhiye.”

Niharika :-“ jab maine iss baat ke liye haami bhari thee usi samay hee maine dridh-nischay kar liya

thaa…. Apane sanskaaro se samjhautaa kiye binaa jaha tak bhee mai iss kaam ko kar sakati hu , mai jarur karungee.”

Rai sahab:-“ hum khud bhee nahi chahate ki iss kaam ko karane me aapko yaa aapake sansakaaro ko koyi hani pahuche.. rohit behad nek aur shareef kism kaa ladkaa hai….iss hadase se pahale bhee aur ab bhee sivay aapake usane aisi gustaakhe kisi ke saath bhee nahi kari thee… shayad! Aap jab usako Manasi ke roop me milengee to vo aapase bhee sabhyaa vyavhaar hee karegaa….baaki kisi bhee duswaari ke liye hum sab yaha hai hee…. To aap befikra hokar iss kaam me humaari madad apekshaa nusaar kijiye…hum ta- umra aapake ehsaan mand rahenge.”

Niharika :-“Sir! Maine pahale bhee aapako aisee baate naa karae ke liye kaha hai…aap please baar- 2 aisi baate karake mujhe sharmindaa naa kare…”

Sulochana:- “vaise Rohit ke baare me tumhe humase bhee jyada achchhee tarah se koyi bata sakataa hai to vo hai Bhushan..................................... Bhushan aur Rohit bachpan se saath-2 khele aur bade hue hai…unake beech malik
aur naukar se jyada dosto jaisaa rishtaa hai…Bhushan ne hee Rohit kaa khyaal sabase jyada rakhaa hai….shayad mujhase bhee jyada.”
Aur ye kahate hue Sulochana ne Bhushan ko aawaaj lagayi............................................................................................. humeshaa ki tarah Bhushan apane pure
naam se naa bulaye jaane ki vajah se bhun-bhunata huaa hee kamare me ghusaa…usaki bhun-bhunahat sun kar lagbhag sabhee ke chehare par muskaan khelane lagi….

Rai sahab :-“bhushan! Aaj se hum sabhee Niharika ko Manasi ke naam se hee jaanenge........................................................................................................ tum baaki ke
sabhee logo o ye taakeed kar do ki iss baat ka dhyaan kam se kam Rohit ke samane jarur rakhe ”

Bhushan :-“ (hairani se apana sar khujaataa huaa) kaa matbal (matlab)........................................................................................................ aur bhala eee devi ji kab se
Manasi ban gayi, kaise bani eee Manasi... (bura saa muh banate hue) humkaa kaahe nahi pata chala!?”

Sulochana:-“(thodaa chidhate hue) kyo ! kya tumase ijazat leni padegi iss baat ke liye.”

Bhushan :-“kaahe gareeb se majaak kar rahee hain mem-shaab....................................................................................................... hum bas eehay jaanai (jaana’na)
chaahat raahe ki bhala ee devi ji Manasiyaa (Manasi) kaise hoye sakat haaiin ? ”
Sulochana shayad fir se kuchh ukhadi huyi baat kahati magar Rai sahab jo Bhushan ki baato kaa maja le rahe the , ne beech me bolate hue kaha....

Rai sahab :-“Chandra bhushan mahato ji! (bhushan ekdum se khush ho gaya)...................................................................................................... yaha aapako wahi baat
bataane ke liye hee to bulaaya gaya hai...... aapane to dekhaa hee hai ki kis tarah Rohit, Niharika ko
Manasi ke naam se bulaataa hai..... yahi baat aaj jab Doctor sahab ko pata chali to unhone he hume ye
natak karane ke liye kaha hai... unkaa mana’na hai ki aisa karane se humaaraa Rohit theek ho jayegaa ”

Bhusahn :-“ (aankho me chamak liye hue)... kyaa sachchi me humare chhote bhaiyya ji theek hoye sakat
hain..... (rai sahab ne ‘haa’ ka ishara kiyaa)... ab dekhiye sahab ji ..hum kyaa mast khelaa (natak) khelate hai...are ee to kuchhou naahi.......................... apane haajipur me to hum Raamleelaa ke bakhat(vakt) chhutaki Seeta ji
roop dharat rahe..... aur baad me Soopankhaa (shoorp-nakhaa ‘Ravan ki bahen’) kaa roop dharate the aur
puraa kaa puraa public jaun raha oo to ekdamme(ekdum) se khush hoye ke humaar khelaa dekhat rahi...aur to aur ”

bhushan ji ki gaadi fir se alp viraam (,) aur purn viraam (.) ko chhodane lagi thee ki tabhi Sulochana ne use tokate hue rok diyaa aur boli ......

Sulochana :-“ (lagbhag chillaate hue)bhushan! Kabhi mahoul ko samajh kar baat kiya karo......................................................................................................... jab dekho
tab bak-bak karate rahate ho.... tumhe yaha is liye bulaaya hai kit um Niharika ko Rohit ke baare achchhe
samajhaa doge par tum ho ki apane Hajipur ke kisse sunane shuru kar diye.......................................................................................................... ab Niharika ko usake
kamare me le jaao aur har chhoti badi baat jot um janate ho Rohit ke baare me vo Niharika ko bata do....(Niharika se mukhatib hote hue..) ab tum apane kamare me jakar issase saaree baat sun lo magar

dhyaan rakhanaa ki isaki gaadi vapas Hajipur ki taraf naa mud jaaye. ”

 

[Indian Princess]

Niharika muskurate hue aur Bhushan fir se bhun-bhunaate hue ghar ke 2nd floor par Niharika ke kamare ki taraf chal hee padi thee ki tabhee..... “Manasi”!........................................ Rai sahab ne peeche se aawaaj lagayi, jise sunkar
Niharika chaunk gayi...... tab Rai sahab ne usase kaha

Rai Sahab :- “aaj se balki abhee se aap iss naam ki aadat daal lijye.”

Niharika apani ‘temporary’ pehchaan liye us kamare se bahar ki taraf chal dee

Study room se nikal kar dono 2nd floor par bane kamare jo ab Niharika ki rihayish thaa me pahuch jaate hai...... aashcharyajanak roop se Bhushan ji pure raaste khaamosh rahe........................................................................................................ ab ye samajh nahi aa raha thaa
ki vo sthiti ki gambheerata ko samajhana chah rahe the yaa Sulochana kaa daantana unhe khal gaya thaa. Khair dono kamare me pahuch gaye the...................... unake kamare me aate hee Bhushan ne Niharika ke pair pakad
kar ekdum rote hue se andaaj me,
Bhushan :- “humare chhote bhaiyyaa ji ko aap theek kar dijiye , hum apani chamadi nuchawaa kar aapakaa jooti banwaye denge.”

Niharika :-“(bhushan ki baat sunkar aur Rohit ke prati usaka pyaar dekhkar bhawuk ho gayi)........................................................................................................ are-2 ye
kya kar rahe hain aap bhushan bhaiyyaa.... mere pair chhodiye aur ab chaliye uthiye. ”

Bhushan :-“ (aanso pochhate hue)..... vaise to aapane humako humare pure naam se nahi bulaaye hain fir
bhee aapani huko bhaiyyaa bulaaya.... humaara kalejaa ekdum chouchak huya gaya. Puchho ! aapko kaa
puchhanaa hai?..hum sab bataayenge.. ”

Niharika :- “ab mai aise kyaa puchhu aapase..... jo bhee aapako lage ki aap janate hain.................................................................................................... mujhe sab bataa
dijiye.”

Bhushan :- “ dhutt ! (kuchh sharmaate hue)....sab kaise bata sakate hai aapko........................................................................................................... ee sab ladakaa logan kaa
baat....... aapako kaise bata sakate hain hum.”

Niharika :-“ (usake sharmane se muskurate hue)...... offooo ! to aisee bhee baate hain kyaa aap logo ke
beech jinhe bataate hue aapako sharm aa rahi hai.”

Bhushan :- “ei bahiniya (sister)! .....vaise hum aapako bahen bulaa sakate hai naa.......................................................................................................... oo kaa hai ki aapane
abhai(abhee) humako bhaiyyaa bulaaye rahen to... hum bhee to aapako bahin bolenge naa. (Niharika ne
haa me gardan hilaa dee)..... ei huyi naa baat .... haa to hum kah rahe the ki........................................................................................................ aap hum dono ko oo to
naaye samajh rahe naa jaun beemaari aaj kal ke laundan(ladako) me bade teji se fail rahi hai............................................................................................. Ssssaaalaa
! aapase me chummaa chaati karane lag gaya hai..... jaane kaa maja aawat hain sasuran ko ”

Niharika :- “(ahem-2...gala saaf karane ke bahaane se Bhushan ko tokate hue)................................................................................................. dekhiye jab tak aap
Rohit ji ki kuchh khaas baate mujhe nahi batayenge..... mujhe unhe samajhane me dikkat aayegi aur
unake ilaaj me bhee mushkil ho jaayegi..isliye unaki pasand – naa’pasand, ye sab mujhe pata honi chaahiye.”

Bhushan :-“memshaab(sulochana) kabhou- kabhou (kabhee-2) humare liye theeke kahate hain ki hum bahut bak-bakaate hain .... abhai dekh liyo............................................ baat kyaa chal rahi thee aur hum kaha ke kaha ude jaa rahe
the... humare Hajipur me bhee...... (bolate-bolate usaki najar Niharika par padati hai aur usake chehare

par dikh rahi jhujhlahat se apani bakwaas wahi rok kar use dekhane lag jaata hai).......................................................................................................... ab nahi bolenge
humhumaare hajipur ke baare me ..... oo sab baat baad me bataayenge aapka.................................................................................................... pahile kaam kaa baat hoye
jaye..... (fir kuchh sochate hue... neeche dekhate hue) oo hum lajaa yah khaatir rahe the ki chhote bhaiyya
ji! prem patra likhwaye me humari madad karaa karat rahen....................................................................................................... (aur bolate hue apane dono haatho se
apanaa cheharaa chhipaa letaa hai). ”...

Niharika usaki sharm-o-haya dekh kar ekdum jor se hansane lagati hai................................................................................................ hansate-hansate usaki aankho
se paani nikalane lagataa hai.... Bhushan usake hansane se naaraaj hota huaa.....

Bhushan :-“ Sasuraa! Eehay khaatir hum aapko ee baat nahi naa bataa rahe the.......................................................................................................... ab aap itana hans rahee
hai ki hum aapako kuchh bhee parsanail (personal) baate nahi bataayenge........................................................................................................ aap to humaari baate sun ka
raise hee hansegi aur koun jaane ee saari baate aap memshaab ko naa bata de................................................................................................... (kuchh ghabarate hue) vo
pahile se humase chidhi rahati hain. ”
Niharika :-“ (vo ab kuch shaant ho gayi thee par rah rah kar usaki hansee nikal hee jaa rahi thee)......................................................................................................... are
nahi-2 bhaiyya! Mai aapaki baat par nahi balki aapake ‘sharamaane’ se hans rahi thee.......................................................................................................... vo kyaa hai ki
kabhee kisi ladake ko aise sharamaate hue nahi dekhaa thaa.”

Bhushan :- “ee lo! Aap je baat par hans rahi thee.... ab hum itane besaram(besharm) to naahi hain naa jo
apane prem patro ke baare me aapako bina lajaaye bata de.” Niharika :-“vaise ye hai kaun jisako aap prem patra likhate hai?”
Bhushan :-“are abhee thode koyi hai (niharika hairaani se dekhate hue usakaa matlab nahi samajhane jaisaa bhaaw apane chehare par laati hai).... are aap itanaa confusiyaa kaahe rahi hain hai ‘bhaai’!................................................................................................... jab
humaraa biyaah (marriage) hogaa .. tab isaki jarurat padegi naa................................................................................................. humare eehaa (yaha) biyaah ke saathe
saath ladaki I vidaayi nahi naa hoti. ”

Ab Niharika ko Sulochana ki di huyi warning yaad aane lagi jo usane Bhushan ke liye use dee thee aur isane bhushan se seedhe sawaal karanaa hee behatar samajhaa..

Niharika :-“ (bhushan ko beech me hee tokate hue).... achchhaa ye bataiye ki, kyaa aapase aur Rohit ji ki
koyi baat su haadase se pahale huyi thee jisame Rohit ji ne Manasi ka jikra kiyaa ho ? ”

Bhushan :- “seedhe -2 naahi par phone par humase bole the ki ghar aakar tujhe khush khabari sunaaungaa...hum fatt dene samajh gaye rahe ki jarur kauno ladaki kaa chakkar hogaa................................................................................................ vo kaa hai ki
bhaiyya ji humeshaa apani kouno ..... (kuchh sochataa huaa saa)......................................................................................................... are usako kaa kahate hai bahiniyaa
jaun ladaki aapake sapao me baar baar aawe laage. ” Niharika :- “dream girl? ”
Bhushan :-“haa-2 wahi... deereem garal (dream girl )....ko lekar humase baat kara karat rahen........................................................................................................... ki oo aise
hogi ...oo vaisee hogi.... to jab unhone humakaa ee baat bole to hum kauno burbak to rahe naaye ki unkar
haal naaye samajh sakat rahe...bas kaa hum lapp dene se puchh lihe ki ....kaa ho bhaiyyaa ji.................................................................................................. humari
chhotaki bhauji finaal(final) kar dihe ho kaa..... bhiayyaa ji naa ekdumme se sakpaka gayen aur kaahe
laagen ki Bhushan! Tum to yaar ekdum gajabe(gajab) karate ho aur lajaa kar phone rakh dihe................................................................................................. rakhate
rakhate bole rahen ki kal fir se phonawaa milaayege par RAAM ji khelaa dekho bahin ji! Humare hasate khelate bhaiyaa ji , ek dum se butt ki tarah hoye gaye................. ab to bas aap unko theek kar do hum aapakaa

ehsaan marate bakhat(vakt) tak maanenge.”

Niharika :- “matlab unhone aapase Manasi ka jikra kiya thaa?”

Bhushan :- “nahi kiya thaa...... ee naam to unake muh se jab vo hosh me aaye rahen tab humsab sune
rahin... pata naahi kaun chudail rahi oo jo humare bhaiyya ji kaa ee haal kare ka jimmedaar
hai...humakaa bas ek dafa mil jaaye... gangaa kasam hum Okar (usaki) tetuwaa (gala) naa dabaaye ke
maar deyi to hum kabho HAAJIPUR ki mitti par kadam naahi rakhabe.”

Niharika ne samajh liya ki isase kuchh puchane ke liye Sulochana yaa Rai sahab kaa honaa jaruri hai....
akele usake bas ki baat nahi hai kuchh puchhane kee.... kahi se bhee bhushan ji apani baato ki gaadi
Haajipur ki taraf ghumaa sakate the..... atah niharika ne baaki ki baate Rai sahab aur Sulochana ke
saamane he karane kaa faisala le liyaa ......


Niharka ke uth ke khade ho jane ke karan Bhushan bhee khada ho gaya aur usaki taraf dekhane laga. Jab Niharika ne use study room me chalane ko kaha tab Bhushan samajh gaya ki ‘shayad’vo fir bak-bak karane laga hai Usane Niharika ko haath jod kar maafi magnate jaise bhaaw me baithane ke liye
kahaa.

Bhushan:-“are ee kaa gajab kar rahee hain bahin jee! Aap to janabe karatee hain ki memshaab humase kitana chidhati hain..dar-asal vo bhi galat to karati nahi naa hain … humahee sasuraa bahute(bahut) bak- bakaate hain..khair ab hum ekdum seereeo-sliye (seriously) bolenge jo bhee bolenge …. Aap puchho jaun puchhe kaa hai.”

Niharika :-“dekhiye bhushan bhaiyya! Mujhe aise kuchh samajh me nahi aa raha hai ki aapase kyaa puchhu aur kyaa naa puchhu …. Jo bhee aapako samajh me aaye ki aap mujhe bata sakate hain vo mujhe bata dijiye Beech-2 me agar kuchh mujhe bhee dhyaan aa jayegaa to mai jarur aapase puchhungee
.”

Bhushan :- “haa! Je ekdumme theek rahegaa...... (apane sar ko khujaate hue …fir jaise kuchh yaad aaya
ho ) …. Are haa ! chhutake bhaiyyaa ji tun-tunaa ekdum mast bajaat hain.” Niharika :- “ aapakaa matlab Guitar se hai naa”.
Bhushan :- “haa-2 vahi taar waala tun-tunaa…..hum okaa (usako) tun-tunaa he kahate hain................................................................................................... magar ek
baat hai bahin jee....... jab humare chhutake bhaiyaa ji oo tun-tunawaa bajaawat hain to sabkaa mann
ekdumme se prannchitt hoye jaat hai …. Log bag aapan-2 (apane) saaree thakaan , saaree pareshaani bhulaay karbas humare bhaiyya ji kaa tun-tunawaa suane khaatir jaha-tahaa khade hoye jaat hain. Vo kisi ko kabhee pareshaan nahi karate hain bahin ji …ek dum devata hai devata…. Jaise bade sahib vaise hee humare chhote bhaiyyaaji …pyaar bhee bahut karate hai dono ek dusare ko …jab bade sahab ne ni- santaan rahe khaatir kasam khaaye the tab chutake bhaiyyaaji ne kam se kam 2-3 maheenaa unase dhang se baat naahi kare rahen …. Dono bas ek dusare par jaan chhidakate hai …. Humari memshaab bhee bas devi hai par kaa bataaye bin aulaad ke kabhau-2 chid-chidaa jaati hain …. Ek do baar to unhone chhutake bhaiyyaa ko hee is baat ke liye jimmedaar maana hai......................................................................................... haalaanki ee saari baate vo apane mann me hee
rakhati hain par hum sab jaanate hain bahin ji …. Humase is ghar kaa kauno baat jyada der tak chhipaa nay sakat …kaa samajhi ?”

Niharika jo abhee-2 kahi gayi sulochana waali baat par thodaa chaunk see gayi tee ….iss baat ko Bhushan ki bak-bak kaa he eek hissaa maanate hue us baat par koyi khaas tawajjo nahi dee.

Niharika :-“ achchhaa unake swabhaaw ki koyi kami bataaiye …. Khaas kar jin baato se Rohit ji ko chidh hoti ho ..”

Bhushan :- “ aisee baat jaan kar aap kaa karengee bahin ji …kahi aap unako chidhaane kaa pilaan (plan ) to naahi banaa rahi hain … agar banaa rahi hain to saaf-2 sun lijiye …. Besak aapako hum apanaa bahin mane hain magar bhaiyya ji ko koyi kisi baatpar chidhaaye …ee sab humare bardaasht se bahar hai …bol de rahe hain ekdum saaf saaf haaa naahi to” .

Niharika fir se jaane ke liye khadi ho jaati hai….. usako jaane ke liye khada hota dekh Bhushan sakpakaa jaata hai aur usake aage nat mastak hotaa huaa ..haat jodletaa hai …
Bhushan:- “ are kaa bataaye bahin ji …humahu saala ek number kaa gadahaa hu(donkey) …. Humeshaa binaa dimaage(dimaag) waali baat karataa hu … ab sochane waali baat hai ki bhala aap kaahe chidhaayengi … aap to unako theek karane ki khaatir ee sab puchh teach kar raheehain ….. hum bataate hain naa ki unako kaahe baat se chidh hai … dekhiye hai to badi maamuli see baat par bhaiyaa ji isako behad badi baat maanate hain ….. unako jhooth bilkul nahi bardaasht hota hai… aurab dekho RAAm ji kaa khelaa … unako theek karane ke liye ek jhooth kaa hee sahaaraa liyaa jaa raha hai”.

Niharika ko ye baat sun kar thodaa saa ajeeb laga magar fir paropkaar ke bhawana uss par haawi ho gayi
…… aur fir kaafi mushkilo ke beech Niharika ne Bhushan se kayi aur baate puchhee…. Likhane ki jarurat nahi hai ki vo mushkile bhala Bhushan ji baato ke siwaay kyaa rahi hogi …. Khair ! inhee sab baato me kaafi vakt lag gayaa thaa aur Niharika ke paas Sulochana kaa bulaawaa lekar ghar ki naukaraani aa pahuchi jo use neeche dining haal me Lunch ke liye bulaa rahi thee…..

Dining table par Rai sahab aur sulochana usakaa intjaar kar rahe the …. Naa jaane kyo Sulochana ke chehare par ek muskaan khel rahi thee aur Rai sahab bade hee gambheer mudraa me baithe the… Niharika ko dekhkar Rai sahab ne rurant use baithane kaa ishaaraa kiyaa aur khaanaa ki plate apane haatho se lagane lage….. Niharika ko thodaa ajeeb saa laga magar usane isse Rai sahab ki khushi me kiyaa jaa raha ek kaam samajh kar binaa kuchh kahe vo plate thaam lee aur unake saath khaana khaane lagi…jaise hee khaanaa khatm huaa Rai sahab ne binaa aur intjaar kiye Niharika se puchane lage

Rai sahab :-“ ( badi hee utsukata se) hume ummeed hai ki ab aap Rohit ke baare me kaafi kuchh jaan hee gayi hongee …. Bhai! Hum to aapase pahale hee ye sab puchh lenaa chaah rahe the magar Sulochana ne naa jaane kyo hume khaanaa khaane tak koyi bhee baat naa puchhane kaa HUKM( hukm par kuchh jyaada hee jordiya Rai sahab ne) diyaa thaa jisaki vajah se humane aapase tab kuchh nahi puchh par ab to hum vakayi besabra ho rahe hai …. Jaldi bataaiye naa ! kyaa ab aapake paas Rohit ke swabhaav ki samuchit jaankaari hai naa …. Aur aap mansik taur par bhee taiyyaar hain naa iss kaam ko karane ke liye”.

Sulochana :-“ aap bhee naa! Kisi bachche se kam nahi hai …maine aapako isliye manaa kiyaa thaa kyonki mai jaanati thee ki shree-2 1008 Bhushan ji maharaja se baat karanaa kitani sar dardi ka kaam hai aur ye bechaaree to pichhale kayo 2-3 ghanto se use jhel rahi thee (aur hasane lagi )”

Niharika ne bhee iss hansee me usakaa saath diyaa aur boli ….. Niharika :-“ ji! Vakayi me Bhushan se baat karanaa bahut mushkil hai” Sulochana :- “ kaam ki baat karanaa usase bhee muchkil hai”
Aur iss baat par to Rai sahab ne bhee hasane me dono mahilaawo kaa saath diyaa …unaki hansee sun kar Bhushan jo ki kitchen me apanaa khaana khaa raha thaa vaha aa pahuchaa aur unaki hansee ki vajah samajhane ki naakaam koshish karane lagaa jabkuchh samajh me nahi aaya tab usane puchhanaa hee behatar samajhaa…

Bhusahn :- “ humako bhee bataiye naa sahab …kyaa baat ho rahi hai ….kahi humari shikayat to naahi kar rahi thee Niharika jee…. (jaise hee Rai sahab ne kadi najaro se ghooraa to ekdum se baat ko samajhate hue ) …are humaraa matbal hai ki Manasi ji ne ?”

Rai sahab :-“ (usaki samajhadaari se kuchh khush hote hue ) …. Are nahi bhushan …vo vechaari to tumhaaree taareef kar rahi thee… kah rahi thee ki bhushan jaisaa samajhdaar insaan to usane aaj tak nahi dekhaa”.

Bhushan :- “ (apani jhuthi taareef se gad-gad hote hue) ….. hum jaanat rahe ki kabhee to vo din aayegaa jab humaree asalee keemat sabako maaloom padegi …dhanya hau aap bahin jee jaun aapane eehaa (yaha) sabko humari asali keemat samajhaa deehi…. Aapaka laakh-2 dhanyawaad”.

Sulochana ne use tokate hue kaha “bas-2 ab fir se humaaree galat fahami ko vapas mat bulaao aur apani asali keemat ko banaa kar rakho….. apani jabaan kaa kam aur dimaag kaa istemaal jitanaa jyada karoge utani tumhaaree keemat badhegi”. Rai sahab muskuraate hue fir se apani tawajjo Niharika ki taraf karate hue ….

Rai sahab :-“ aapane humaaree baat kaa jawaab abhee tak nahi diyaa Niharika! Kyaa ab aap dimaagi roop se taiyaar hai is kaam ko karane ke liye …ek baar aage badhane ke baad aap fir peeche nahi hat sakati isliye achchhee tarah se soch samajh lijiyegaa”.

Niharika :- “ jee Sir ! maine sab soch samakh liyaa hai ….aur jaisaa ki maine pahale bhee kaha thaa ki jaha tak mere sanskaar mujhe ijazat denge mai har us hadd tak ye kaam karungee… baaki…”.

Rai sahab :- “ (beech me hee tokate hue) ….. sanskaaro se alag karane ke liye humaaraa bhee aap par koyi dabaaw nahi rahegaa Niharika”.

Niharika sunate hee bhushan ne jaise baat ko lapak liyaa ….

Bhushan :- “ ab aapako kaun tokegaa je baat ke liye … ki a bee bahin jee Niharika nahi , Manasi hain( aur apani batteesi chamane laga ) …”

Rai sahab:- “ are haa bhai ! sahi me mujhase bhee galati ho gayi …. Dhanyawaad aapakaa Chandar Bhushan Mehato ji (aur muskuraa diye).”

Bhushan ko to jaise swarg kaa aanand mil gaya …

Bhushan :- “bas Haajipur waale aur bol dete to kalejaa ek dum thandaay jaata” .

Sulochana :- “ (kheejate hue) apana pin code bhee to bata do …vo bhee laga denge sahab tumhaare naam ke peeche”.

Shayad Bhushan ji vo bhee bata dete par tabhee jo ek nurse jisako doctor ne waha chhodaa thaa Rohit ki sehat ko monitor karane ke liye usane waha aakar batayaa ki Rohit ko ab hosh a raha hai….. pariwaar kaa koyi sadasyaa waha jaldi se pahuche ….. niharika! Jo ab tak sab kuchh karane kaa daawa kar rahi thee ab jaise usake haath pair phulane lage …vo kaafi nervous najar aane lagi ..Rai sahab ne use ghabaraate hue dekh kar tasalli dee aur bole

Rai sahab:- “ aap pareshaan mat hona’MANASI’ …hum sab me se koyi naa koyi humeshaa aapake saath rahegaa …aapko kisi bhee baat ki chintaa karane ki jarurat nahi hai. (sulochana ko ishaaraa karate hue) aap inhe le chaliye hum lift se Bhushan waha tak le aayegaa”.

Rohit ke kamare ke taraf badhate hue Niharika kaafo nervous ho rahi thee … usaki tango me kamp- kampaahat saaf mehsoos ki sakati thee…. Usaki aisi haalat dekhate hue Sulochana ne usake kandhe par apanaa haath rakh kar use ashwast rahane kaa ishaaraa kiyaa…… Niharika ne mann hee manna pane aaradhya devataao ko yaad kiyaa …un sabhee se iss nek kaam ke liye aasheerwaad bhee maang liyaa aur fir apane dil ko pakkaa karate hue aage badh chali.

Rohit ke kamare ke bahar pahuchate hee Sulochana ne kuchh soch kar use waha rok diyaa aur usako bulane par hee andar aane ko bol kar kamare ke bheetar chali gayi….. Rohit ko dheere -2 hosh aa raha thaa…aankhe khulane par usane Sulochana ko apane saamane dekhaa…sulochana bade pyaar se usake paas baithate hue

Sulochana :- “ ab aapaki tabiyat kaisee hai Rohit! Sar kaa dard theek hai kyaa ?”

Sulochana ne jaan bujhakar sardard kaa naam liyaa taaki Rohit ko koyi aur zehani jor naa pade….. fir Rohit ne dheemi aawaaj me bola…….

Rohit:- “mujhe kyaa huaa thaa bhabhi…mai to bas Manasi ke saath khada thaa …vo kahi jaa rahi thee aur mai usako rok raha thaa …. Fir pata nahi kyaa huaa …mujhe kuchh hosh nahi raha …. Ab Manasi kaha hai Bhabhi? ..(kuchh ghabaraaye swar me )…vo kahi chali to nahi gayi naa…please bhabhi! Bataiye naa ..vo kaha hai ab ?”

Sulochana :- “ ( jo abhee tak Rai sahab kaa intjaar kar rahee thee ….unako kamare me bhushan samet aata dekh )… are ghabaraao mat Rohit! Vo yahi hai …aap behosh ho gaye the naa… to vo Bhagwaan ke paas baith kar aapaki salamati ke liye pujaa kar rahi hai …bhushan ! jaao aur MANASI ko bata do ki Rohit ko hosh aa gaya hai ….”

Bhushan bina kuchh bole jaldi se bahar ki taraf chala jaata hai…. Kamare ke bahar khadi Niharika ye sab sun rahi thee …itanee der me usane khud ko kaafi sanyat kar liyaa thaa aur ab usame thodaa saa hee sahi par atmvishwaas jhalak raha thaa….. Bhushan usake paas aakar usako bheetar chalane ka ishaaraa kiyaa aur thodaa ruk kar 2-4 lambee-2 saanse lekar Niharika kamre ke andar ki taraf badh chali….

…………………………..

Rohit ke liye vakt jaise tham gaya thaa …vo ek-tak Niharika ko dekhe jaa raha thaa.. usakaa khoyaa huaa pyaar ab fir se usake saamane aa gaya thaa …. Jisane usaki raato ki neende aur din kaa chain-o-sukoon , sab chheen liyaa thaa …aaj vo hee pal fir se usake saamane aaya huaa thaa…. Vo letaa huaa thaa par ab usake kamjor sharer me aayi sfoorti ne use uthane ki ek nayi vajah de dee thee….. usake dimaag kaa dhundhalaa-2 (faded) hissaa bhee use yahi yakeen dilaa raha thaa ki ye jo saamane khadi hai ye hee usaki MANASI hai….. Rohit apani aankho me paani liye …… Niharika ki taraf badhataa hai…. Sulochana ne ek baar to usako rokanaa chaahaa par Rai sahab ne usaka haath pakad kar bagair kuchh bole ishaare se hee Rohit ko rokane se manaa kar diyaa….. Rohit ab apane bed se uth kar Niharika ki taraf badhane lagataa hai ….. vo behad dheeme kadamo se apane pyaar ki taraf badh raha hotaa hai ki shaaririk kamjori ki vajah se usako chakkar aane lagataa hai …. Usako lad-khadaataa dekh kar Niharika khud aage badh kar Rohit ko thaam leti hai …

bas! Vakt jaise vahee tham gaya thaa …khaaskar Rohit ke liye … .. kyonki baaki sab to beshak natak kar rahe honge magar usake liye to isase badh kar koyi aur baat thee hee nahi ki usaki MANASI usake saamane khadi thee. Vo bade pyaar se apani Manasi ke chehare par haath firaata hai ….. Niharika ke pure sharer me san-sani daud jaati hai…. Vo khud ko behad asahaj mehsoos karane lagati hai ….. usaki asahajataa dekh kar Sulochana aage badh kar Rohit ke kandhe par apana haath rakh kar use kahati hai……

Sulochana :-“ab to aapako yakeen ho gaya naa ki ‘aapaki Manasi’ yanhee hai kahi gayi nahi hai….. ab aap Doctor kee baat maanate hue sirf aur sirf aaraam karenge..chaliye! apane bed par late jaiye ..”



Rohit :- “Bhaabhi please ! mujhe meri Manasi se alag mat kijiye ..vaise bhee ye kitane din baad aayi hai mujhase milane ….. jab se isake pita ji ise le gaye the tab se ye ab kahi jaa kar mujhe mili hai …… ab to aap ise mujhase mil lene dijiye naa … please Bhaabhi MAA (ye bhaabhi ke saath Maa bolana Rohit ka ‘trump-card’ hota thaa jise vo kisi khaas farmaaish ko puri karane ke liye sulochana par aajmaataa thaa)…. Maan jaiye Bhaabhi Maa!”



Aaj kitane arse ke baad Rohit ke muh se ye shabd sunkar Rai sahab aur Sulochana, dono ko ek sukhad ashcharyaa ne gher liyaa …. Unaki aankho ke saamane Rohit kaa laad-dulaar sab kisi chhoti film ki tarah daud gaya …. Fir Rai sahab ne hee apani wheel chair ko Rohit ke kareeb le jaate hue usase kaha …..



Rai sahab :- “tumhaari bhaabhi maa ne ‘Niha’..…Manasi ko tumase alag thode hee kar rahi hain chhote! Vo to bas aapake aaraam ko dhyaan me rakh kar aapase aaraam karane ke liye kah rahee hain… aap chinta naa kariye chhote! Manasi kahi nahi jaayegi …ab vo yahee rahegi.. ”



Haalaanki khud Rai sahab ke muh se Manasi ki jagah Niharika nikalate-2 rah gaya thaa magar Rohit bhala kaha us baat par dhyaan detaa ,,,vo to Niharika aur Manasi ke beech ki sachchaayi ko jaanataa hee nahi thaa…… shayad kabhi jaan’naa chaahe bhee naa…. Vo to bas Rai sahab ki baat sunkar khush ho gaya thaa …behad khush … aane waale kal ke toofaano se anjaan ……







Rai sahab ki baat sun kar Rohit ne Niharika kaa haath pakadaa aur use apane kamare me rakhe hue 5 seater sofa set k ek single sofe par bithaa kar khud usake pairo ka paas jameen par baith jaata hai………



Niharika :-“are-2 ! aap yaha kaha baith rahe hain … upar baithiye naa(aur asahaj hote hue baki sab ki tarf dekhane lagati hai).”



Rohit kaa aisaa vyavahaar dekhate hue sab bade hee duvidhaa me pad gaye the….. kisi ne sochaa bhee nahi thaa ki Rohit iss hadd tak Manasi ko pyaar karataa hai…..usaki mansik sthiti ko dekhate hue koyi kuch karane yaa kahane se pahale 10-10 baar soch raha thaa….. aur udhar Rohit in sab se bekhabar bas apani Manasi ko nihaare jaa raha thaa…..



Rohit :- “tum kahaa chali gayi thee Manasi….usdin tumhaare ghar par jab tumane mujhe bulaaya thaa

…. Mai kitani khushi-2 waha aayaa thaa ….par jab andar aaya tab waha koyi nahi milaa…….tumhe pata hai! Jab mai waha tumhaara intjaar kar rahaa thaa tab kisi ne mere sar par bahut jor se maaraa thaa (kahate-2 Rohit ne apane sar par haath feraa …shayad usi jagah kaa ehsaas kar raha thaa jaha use chot lagi thee)…. Fir to mujhe kuchh yaad hee nahi raha.”



Usaki baate sun kar Rai sahab ki aankho me khoon utar raha thaa….unhe apane jaan se jyaada pyaare bhai ki us haalat ko sochate hue bhee mutthiyaa bhinchati jaa rahi thee… aaj tak alag-2 tareeko se hajaaro baar puchhane par bhee Rohit ne kabhee in baato kaa jikra bhee nahi kiyaa thaa …unhe jo bhee pata lag paaya thaa vo bhee bas policiyaa tahakikaat se , nahi to shayad ye bhee unhe nahi pata lag paata ki Rohit ki ye dashaa kaise huyi thee….. udhar Rohit in sab baato se bekhabar apani Manasi se itane saare din ki judaayi ki bhadaas nikaal lenaa chahtaa thaa …. Vo usakaa haath pakade-2 use nihaare jaa raha thaa…. Usaki belaus nigaahe Niharika ko lagataar asahaj kiye jaa rahi thee…. Use is maasum ke saath apane jhuthe naatak par ab afasos ho raha thaa ….

 

[Indian Princess]

Rohit kaafi der tak vaise hee farsh par baithaa huaa Niharika kaa haath apane haatho me liye lagataar kuchh naa kuchh bole jaa rahaa thaa ….. par uname aisaa kuchh nahi thaa jo usake saath hue haadase ke baare me koyi khaas baat ki taraf ishaaraa kar rahi thee …. Rohit to sirf ek aise premi ki tarah bartaaw kar raha thaa jisaki roothee huyi premikaa achanak usake paas vaapas aa gayi hai…. Kabhee vo ye bataata ki Manasi ko kyaa pasand thaa aur kabhee ye ki Manasi usase kis -2 baat par naaraaj ho jaati thee…… par naa to vo ye bataa raha thaa ki Manasi use kaha aur kaise mili aur ye hee vo baat thee jise jaan’ne ki teevra ichchhaa sabake mann me thee…..

Sulochana ne jo abtak ye sab dekh rahi thee usane ab in sab ke beech me hastakshep karate hue ….. Rohit ko ab aaraam ki taakeed karati hai …. Rohit fir se vaisee hee yaachana bhare swar me vinati karataa hai magar Sulochana ne iss baar kadaayi se kaam lete hue naa Rohit ko naa hee Rai sahab ko koyi maukaa dete hue ….Rohit ko Doctor dwaaraa prescribed dawaaiyaa jiname sleeping pills bhee shamil hoti thee khilaate hue usako usake bed par sulaa diyaa….. vaise to Rohit kaa dimaag in dawaao ke prabhaaw se kal beasar saabit huaa thaa par aaj usake dimaag me ye sukoon thaa ki usaki premika ab usake paas vapas aa gayi thee aura b vo pichhali baar ki tarah kahi nahi jaayegi. Neend ki aagosh me jaate-2 bhee Rohit bas apani Manasi ko dekhe jaa raha thaa aur jaise hee Rohit ke halke kharraate kamare me gunjane lagate hai aur Niharika ko ye yakeen ho jaata hai ki rohit an so chukaa hai ….. vo itanee der se apane dil me jazb kiye hue apane glaani bhaaw (GUILT) ko sambhaal nahi paayi aur phoot -2 kar rone lagi…..

Usakaa ronaa dekh kar kamare me maujood baaki sab sann (stun) rah jaate hai …. Bhushan bhee apane aansoo rok nahi paata aur rone me Niharika kaa saath dene lagataa hai….. sulochana jo abhee niharika ke hee rone se kisi soch me doobi thee par Bhushan key u rone se to jaise vo kuchh frustrate jaisee ho gayi aur
…..

Sulochana :-“ (rohit ki kachchi neend kaa khyaal rakhate hue…dabi huyi aawaaj me gusse se) bhushan! Ye kyaa laga rakhaa hai tumane ….jaao yaha se …. ”

Bhushan :-“hum kaha ro rahe the memshaab ! vo to Niha…(sambhalate hue)….. humaraa matbal hai ki Manasi ji ko yu rote dekh humaaraa bhee ronaa apane aap hee nikal pada..(aura pane aansoo pochha letaa hai).”

Rai sahab:-“mere khyaal se ab hume yaha se chalanaa chahiye….. hum sabake yaha rahane se Rohit ke aaraam me khalal padegaa….vaise bhee Nurse to hai hee yaha par( fir Niharika ki taraf dekhate hain fir Sulochana ko ishaara karate hue )…. Inhe bhee aap ab bahar le jaaiye…. Inhe abhee sambhalane me shayad aur jyadaa vakt ki darkaar hai.”

Sulochana ne aage badh kar subakati huyi Niharika ke kandhe par pyaar se thap-thapaa use shaant karaati hai aur ….

Sulochana :-“humsab samajh rahe hai ki shayad tum Rohit ki baato se bhaawuk ho gayi ho aur usake saath jhooth bolane ki vajah se khud ko gunahgaar maan rahi ho magar mai tumhe ek baat ekdum spasht bataati hu …ye jo bhee tum kar rahi ho vo humaare upar ek bahut badaa ehsaan hai …Rai sahab aur mai kabhee bhee tumhaaraa ye ehsaan nahi chukaa paayenge…tumhe khud ko kisi bhee baat ke liye kosane ki jarurat nahi hai….”

Aur bade pyaar se Niharika ka sar apane kandho par rakh liyaa …Niharika ki subakiya ab dheere -2 shaant ho rahi thee…sulochana kaa marm-sparshi sparsh usakee subakiyo me kami aane kaa ek bada karan saabit ho raha thaa. Kamare ke bahar aate hue Rai sahab kaa phone baj uthaa ….unhone ….. phone par udhar se bolane waale kee baat sunate hue chand ‘hu-haa’ ke baad kaha “mujhe usake dwaraa kisi aise hee kadam ki ummeed thee ..ab aap fatafat vo kariye jo karane ke liye maine aapase kaha thaa…aur us kaam ko kar ke jald se jald mere paas pahuchiye”aur baat khatm karate hue unhone apanaa phone

apani jeb me vaapas rakhate hue ek muskaan bharee najaro se Niharika aur Sulochana ko dekhaa aur Bhushan ko neeche apane kamare me le chalane ke liye kahaa.

kareeb ek - sawa ek ghane me hee unake paas ek aadami aa kar koyi kagaj thamaa jaata hai jise lete hue Rai sahab ke chehare par ek santosh bhari muskaan aa jaati hai. Niharika aaj mansik rop se atyant thaki huyi mehsoos kar rahi thee..subah se ab tak jo-2 huaa vo sab usakee najaro ke saamane ghumane laga thaa
…. Naashte ke baad DSP BHAARAT kaa aana , fir Rohit kaa use Manasi samajhate hue uttejit honaa aur fir khud usakaa Manasi ban’ne ki ichchhaa jataanaa……. Vo khud apanenirnay se ab hairaan ho rahi thee
…shayad vakti taur par ubhare apane naari sulabh bhaawnaao par niyantran naa rakh pane ki dashaa me usane ye nirnay le liyaa thaa …par ab jaisaa Rai sahab ne kaha tha vo vapas nahi ho yaha se vapas nahi ho sakati …… yahi sab sochate hue vo apane kamare me aa pahuchi ….. thodi hee der me Dinner ka vakt hone waala thaa to Sulochana ne use tab tak ke liye aaraam karane aur apane pariwaar se baat karane liye kaha… shayad apane pariwaar se baat karane ke baad vo kuchh relax mehsoos kare…….

Apane pariwaar se baat karane ke baad usane nahaa kar fresh hone ke baare me sochate hue bath room me ghus gayi. Shower lene ke baad jab vo bahar aayi to usane kamare ki khidaki par kisi saaye ko dekhaa..jise dekhate hee vo ghabaraa gayi …. Usake dimag me vahi Kale kapade waala aadami ghumane laga …. Par usake dekhate-2 vo saaya khidaki se gayab hogaya…… Niharika abhee in baato ko soch hee rahi thee ki usake kaano me kisi ke cheekhane ki aawaaj padati hai ….

Sulochana :- “Are ye aawaaj to ………”
Sulochana bhaagate hue Rai sahib kee study me jaati hai aur unase unaki kushal puchhati hai …… rai sahab jo apane kuchh jaruri papers dekh rahe the …. Iss cheekh ko sun kar apane papers ko rakhate hue bahar nikalane ki taiyaari hee kar rahe the ki Sulochana vaha ahuch gayi thee..bhushan jo Rai sahab ke paas kuchh der pahale tak khada thaa …use vaha naa dekh kar ..Sulochana usake bare me puchhati hai
…..



Rai sahab :-“ (jo apani wheel chair ko bahar ki taraf leke nikale hee the ki Sulochana vaha pahuch gayi).. use to maine apani ek file laane ke liye bhejaa thaa …kahi ye cheekh…. Jaldi se mujhe bahar le chalo…. Pata nahi aaj kal humaare ghar par kisaki buri najar lagi huyi hai …..”

Study se bahar aate hee ghar ke kuchh aur naukar bhee waha aa pahuche the …ye sab usi cheekh ko sun kar pareshaan the aur soch hee rahe the ki ye cheekh kisaki hai …tabhee Rai sahab ko jaise kuchh yaad aaya aur unhone 2-3 naukaro ko fatafat 2nd floor par Niharika ke kamare ki taraf jaane ko kaha aur use apane saath hee neeche lekar aane ko kaha……saare naukar to dikhaayi diye par Bhushan kahi nahi dikh raha tha….. usaki anupasthiti ko mehsoos karake Sulochana aur Rai sahab ne usako bhee dhundhane ko kaha …..

Rai sahab ne main gate par khade guards ko andar bulaa kar unase saare ghar ka chakkar lagaane ko kaha……. Jo naukar upar Niharika ko laane gaye the vo apane saath Niharika ko ab neeche le aaye the …. Niharika kaa puraa shareer dar ki vajah se peelaa padaa huaa thaa… pahale us saaye ko dekh kar thathaa baad me ye cheekh sun kar usaki haalat buri ho gayi thee….. baahar se ek guard daudata huaa aaya aur usane Rai sahab ko bataya ki ghar ke pichhali taraf Bhushan ghayal awastha me pada huaa hai ….. usake sar par chot lagi thee aur vaha se khoon bah raha thaa…… us guard ke peeche-2 …… 2-3 guards ghayal Bhushan ko uthaa kar laa rahe the jise dekhate hee Rai sahab aur Sulochana pareshaan ho gaye….
Bhushan ardh-murchhit awastha me thaa …. Sulochana ne fauran Doctor ko phone karake bulaa liya aur

khud dettol mangwaa kar bhushan ke ghaav saaf karane lagi……



Bhushan ke sar me ek ‘goomad’ nikal aaya thaa jaha se khoon bah rahaa thaa ….. thodi der me Doctor vaha pahuch gaye aur unhone Bhushan ke ghaav ki jaanch kari aur ghaav ko ‘jyada khatarnaak nahi batayaa’ fir usaki dressing (marham-patti) kar dee…. Ek injection lagate hue unhone kuchh dawaaye khaane ke liye de dee aur chalate bane…… thodi der me dawaa aur injection ne apanaa asar dikhaayaa aur Bhushan ne apani aankhe kholi aura pane chaaro taraf dekhate hue apani sthiti ko samajhane ki koshish kari …usako uthata dekh kar Sulochana ne use late kar baat karane ko kaha ……

Sulochana :- “ye sab kaise huaa Bhushan! kisane maara tumhe ?”

Bhushan :-“ (sar me abhee tak uthate dard se kuchh kheejata huaa)….. pata naahi memshaab! Hum to Rai sahab ki file lewe jaat rahe ki humakaa yaad aawa ki hum peechhe waale Lawn me paani khulaa chhod kar aaye hain ….oo kaa hai ki aaj maali sasur chhutti mare baithaa hai aur pichhe waale lawn me sab paudhaa sookhe jaat rahen to hum uhaa (waha) paani chala kea aye rahen ..fir uhaa gaye tab hum kaa dekhat hain ki ek lambee see seedhi (stair made by bamboo stick) jaun putaayi kare khaatir kaam aawat hai ….(fir jaise kuchh yaad aata hai)…. Are ei bhaiyyaa RAJ BAHADUR…. tanik daud ke jaa ta
….paaniyaa abhau(abhi bhee) bahat hoye… haali-2(jaldi-2) jaa aur nalwaa (tap) band karake aay jaa. ”

Aise tanaaw bhare maahoul me bhee usaki baat se Rai sahab samet sabhee muskuraaye bina nahi rah paaye yah tak ki Sulochana bhee apani muskurahat ko rok naa paayi …

Sulochana :-“nal baad me band ho jaayegaa pahale tum apani baat khatm karo….aur jaldi se ye bataao ki ye sab kisane kiyaa?.”

Bhushan jo Sulochana ke muh se ‘baat’ jaari rakhane ki sunkar abheebhoot ho gaya thaa fauran maukaa naa cukate hue apani baat ko fir se shuru kar detaa hai …


Bhushan :-“haa to hum bataaye rahe the ki oo seedhee dekh kar humaar maathaa thankaa ki sarwaa ee bhakat kaun sasur hiyaan (yaha) putaayi kar raha hai..jab paas jaa kar dekhe to kaa dekhat hain ki upar se ek aadami jaun puraa ka puraa kale kapadan me lipataa rahaa……fatafat neeche ki oree (taraf) chalaa aawat raha ”

Kale kapade waale ki baat sun kar sab chaunk gaye aur pichhali raat ki baat yaad karane lage jab kisi ne bhee Niharika ki baat nahi maani thee aur use usakaa BHRAM batakar usaki baat ko khaarij kar diyaa thaa…… Niharika to kale kapade waale ki baat sun kar jad see ho gayi thee …. ‘Usake mann me bas ek hee khyaal aa raha thaa ki usaki band khidaki ke bahar jo say dikhaa thaa jarur vo vahi kale kapade waala hee hogaa’

Rai sahab :-“fir kyaa huaa bhushan ? ”

Bhushan :-“fir kaa sahab ! humahu wahi neeche khade hoye gaye, jab oo lagbhag 5-6 dandee tak pahuch gawaa raha tab hum ookaa neechawe se hee lalkaar kar bole ‘aawa sasur! Humahu hiyaa tohaar intjaar karat hayee’…oo humako neeche dekh kar chaunk gaya ….aur ekdamme se hum par kood gawaa…hum

soche bhee naaye rahe ki sarwaa hum par kood padegaa ..aur hum baukhalaaye gaye…. Pata nahi oo humare sar par kaa maaraa saahab ! puraa bhumandal humare aankho kea age naach gawaa…aur fir jab humari aankh khuli tab hum hiyaa …aap logan ke saamane padaa rahe ”.


Rai sahab ne saare guards ko vaha bulawaa kar un sab ko achchhee tarah se daant laga kar pure ghar ki baariki se talaashi lene ko kaha aur chaukasi ko aur bhee jyaadaa tight karane ko kaha …. Bhushan ko usake kamare me aaraam karane ke liye bhej diyaa gaya ..haalanki vo apane aap ko puri tarah fit bataate hue dinner tak kaam karane ko kah raha thaa par Sulochana ke saamane usaki ek naa chali aur use aaraam karane ke liye jaanaa hee padaa…… dinner karate vakt teeno log ekdum khaamosh the … sirf unake spoons aur plates ke takaraane ki vajah se uthati aawaaj hee us khaamoshi ko rah rah kar bhang kar rahi thee … sulochana ne dekhaa ki Niharika ne apani plate se sirf naam matra kaa hee khaanaa khaayaa thaa….. Niharika kaa cheharaa abhee tak fakk padaa thaa…. Sulochana ne usako santwanaa dete hue …….

Sulochana :-“tum aaj raat se humaare kamare ke paas waale kamare me hee rahogi …upar tumharaa rahanaa ab mujhe theek nahi lagataa…… pata nahi vo kaun hai joy u haath dho kar tumhaare peeche pad gaya hai aur ab yaha tak bhee aa pahuchaa… us din to humane us baat ko tumhaaraa BHRAM samajhaa thaa par ab Bhushan ki baat sun kar to shaque ki koyi gunjaish hee nahi rahi…… (rai sahab ki taraf dekhate hue)…mai theek kar rahi hu naa?”

Rai sahab :-“aapane kabhi galat kiya hai kyaa(muskuraate hue) ..aur vaise bhee …. Humaaree kyaa majaal jo hum aapaki kisi baat ko kaat sake …” .

Sulochana :-“(sharmaate hue)…aap bhee naa! Naa maukaa dekhate hai naa jagah ..bas!”

Un dono ki aisee pyaari baate sun kar Niharika bhee muskuraa deti hai …use muskuraate hue dekh kar …

Rai sahab :-“bas aise hee har pareshaani ko muskuraa kar jhellana hee jindagi hai … nahi to roj hee mar mar ke jeenaa padegaa. ”

Niharika unaki baat sun kar apani gardan samajhane waale andaaj me hila deti hai….

Sulochana :-“ab hume iss baat ki jaan kaari Police me de deni chaahiye agar pahae hee police bulaa lee jaati to shayad bhushan jakhmi hone se bach jaata ….”

Rai sahab :-“aap sahi kah rahi hai …hum kal hee SP sahab se baat karenge…. Abhee to sone kaa vakt ho gay hai …. Unhe disturb karana theek nahi rahegaa .”

Sulochana ne haami bharate hue unaki baat maan lee…. Niharika ko usakaa naya kamaraa dikhaa diya gaya …. Ye waala kamaraa pahale waale se bhee bada thaa…. Aur behtar tareeke se saja bhee huaa thaa…. Niharika itani thaki huyi thee ki naram bistar paate hee so gayi…..

Raat ki kaali chaadar ko hata kar subah apani taajagi bikherate hue suraj ki kirano se jagmagaati huyi ab naye din kaa aaghaaz kar rahi thee. Khidaki se aati dhoop ki kirano ne Niarika ke chehare par shararat karate hue usako jagane kaa prayatn shuru kar diyaa …Niharika bhee dhoop ko apane chehare par mehsoos karate hue kunmunaa kar dusaree taraf karwat karake sone ki koshish karane lagi …. Achanak usane mehsoos kiyaa ki usake chehare aur dhoop ke beech me kuchh aagya thaa….. usane apani aaknho ko kholate hue dekhaa to use Rohit kaa muskuraataa huaa cheharaa dikhaayi diyaa jo apani mehboobaa ko dhoop se bachaane ki koshish kar raha thaa ……
Rohit ko dekhate hee Niharika jhat se uth baithee….. usako uthata dekh kar Rohit ki muskurahat aur bhee badh gayi….. usake haath me Rajanigandhaa ke phoolo ka ek guldastaa thaa….jise shayad vo ghar ke baageeche se hee bana ke laaya thaa….

Rohit :- “ye lo! tumhare man’pasand phool…ek dum taaje -2 aur mahakate hue laaya hu…..jaise tumhe pasand hain…… (aur bade pyaar se Niharika ke haatho me tama deta hai)” …

Un phoolo ko apane haatho me lete hee Niharika ki ‘chheenke’ shuru ho gayi…. 1 baar, 2 baar, 3 baar aur jab 4-5 baar bhee chheenk maar ke usaki chheenk band nahi huyi to Rohit ne usake haath se vo guldastaa vapas le liya Niharika ko shayad Rajanigandha ke phoolo se allergy thee par Bechare Rohit ko kya
pata thaa ki usake saamane Manasi nahi Niharika baithee thee…

Rohit :-“(phoolo ko dekhata huaa)… pata nahi kyaa hai iname jo tumhe inaki khushbu pasand nahi aayi…pahale to yehee vo phool the jinhe tum sabase jyada pasand karati thee….ab kyaa huaa............................................................................................. ”

Niharika :-“(rohit ki udaasi dekhate hue)……mujhe kuchh dino pahale FLU huaa thaa jo kaafi din tak raha ..shayd usake baad hee aisaa ho gaya hai…. Aap itani subah-2 kaise aa gaye (dar’asal vo Rohit ko yu akelaa apane kamare me pakar thodi ghabaraa bhee rahi thee)……soye nahi the kyaa ?”

Rohit :-“(gardan ko ‘haa’ me hilaata huaa)….raat bhar meri aankho me tumhaare hee khwaab aate rahe
….kisi kisi khwaab me to tum vapas chali jaa rahi thee …. bas ! meri aankh khulate hee mai tumhe pure ghar me khojata huaa yaha tak aa pahuchaa…jab pahali baar aaya tab tum bahut hee gahari neend me so rahi thee…. To sochaa ki baageche me se tumhaare pasandeedaa phool tod laau…par kyaa faayadaa(niraash hota hua)…. Tumhe to pasand hee nahi aaye….”

Niharika :-“kisane kaha ki mujhe pasand nahi aaye....... vo to bas mujhe unaki khushbu se ab thodi si
dikkat ho rahi hai …varnaa pasand to mujhe abhee bhee ye hi phool aate hai ” Rohit :-“(khushi se)…sach !”
Niharika :-“(usaki khushi dekh kar muskurate hue) haa – haa ek dum sach…”

“Ee liyo ! aap hiyaa hai …aur hum aapake chakkar me puraa ghar chhaan mare” Bhushan kamare ke khule darwaje se un dono ki aawaaj suntaa huaa bheetar aate hue bolata hai….usake sar par Doctor dwaraa baandhee gayi patti, raat me sote samay dheeli ho gayi thee jise vo baar-2 adjust kar raha thaa………

Rohit :-“(patti dekh kar … hairaani se)…are bhushan! Ye kyaa huaa.............................................................................................. tumhaare sar ye chot kaisee?”

Bhushan :-“ are kaa bataaye chhote bhaiyya ji! (tabhee Niharika ishare se mana karati hai)….. pair fisal gawa raha humaar ..aur hum dhamm dene(dhadaam se) gir pade…. Bas humaar khopadiyaa phoot gayi
….. ”

Rohit :-“kitani baar tumhe kaha hai ki aaraam se chala karo …par tum ho ki din bhar hawaa me udate hue chalate ho….ab dekh kyaa rahe ho jaldi se humaare aur Manasi ke liye kuchh naashtaa leke aawo
…mujhe bahut bhookh lagi hai..”

Ye sun kar Bhushan khushi se chaunk jaata hai ….. naa jaane kitane din baad aaj Rohit ne khud kuchh maangaa thaa khaane ke liye … vo swaamibhakt naukar apani maalik ki haalat ko sudharataa dekh kar khushi se phoolaa naa samaa raha thaa….

Bhushan :-“kyaa khaaoge bhaiyya ji …. Hum abhai banaye ke laawat hain ” Rohit :-“mere aur manasi ke liye fatafat cheese omelet bana kar laao ”
Niharika :-“nahi-2 mai andaa(egg) nahi khaati..mere liye kuchh aur ….hmmmm Paranthe bana dijiyegaa”..

Rohit :-“(hairaani se)…..tum andaa nahi khaati …tumhaari to jaan huaa karati thee andaa…khud hee to kahati thee ki mai to bas and eke dum par jindagi bitaa sakati hu aur ab kah rahi ho ki ‘mai andaa nahi khaati’..ye bhala kaise possible hai? ”

Niharika apani is baat se ekdum fans gayi thee….. use kuchh soojh nahi raha thaa ki tabhee Bhushan ne apani sadaa-bahaar aklmandi dikhaate hue …..

Bhushan :-“(niharika se…)…… are aapane abhee bhaiyya ji ko bataawaa nahi kaa ! (rohit se mukhatib hota hua)…ei bhaiyya ji ! oo kaa hai ki Bahin ji ne mannat maange rahi ki jab tak aap ekdum theek nahi ho jayenge ….ye ekdumme se shuddh SHAKAHAARI khana khaayengi..…..kaa samajhe”…..

Jaha Rohit ne ye baat sun kar bade hee pyaar se apani ‘Manasi’ ki taraf dekhaa wahi Niharika ne Bhushan ki haajir jawaabi se khush hote hue aankho hee ankho me usakaa dhanyawaad kiyaa…… fir Bhushan naashte ki taiyaari karane ke liye jaane laga to Niharika bhee uth khadi huyi….. Rohit ne usakaa haath thaam liya

Rohit :-“tum kaha chali?..jara thodi der to mere paas ruko ….jab se mili ho tab se koyi naa koyi lagataar
…humaari privacy me khalal paidaa karata rahataa hai…. Abhee yaha koyi nahi hai…chand pal mere saath hee baitho naa…….”

Niharika :-“ (apanaa haath chhudaate hue)…… abhee thodee hee der me Sulochana ji aur Rai sahab naashte par humaaraa intjaar shuru kar denge……. Mujhe abhee upar jaakar fresh bhee honaa hai
…hum baad me baate karenge….” Aur apanaa haath chhudaa kar chali gayi……Niharika ka yu jaanaa pasand to nahi aaya par is baar Rohit ne usako nahi rokaa ….. Niharika upar waale kamare me pahuch kar apani dainik kriyaao se nipat kar ..apane saare kapade vagairah jo usane almaaree me laagaye the , unhe vaapas bags me bharane lagati hai ……. Bags pack karate samay hee apeksha anusaar neeche se naashte ke liye bulaawaa aa gaya ……. Vo thodi der me aane kaa kah kar bacha khuchaa saamaan bhee pack leti hai aur fir unhe apane saath hee neeche le kar chal deti hai …use seedhiyo se apane bags ke saath

utarataa dekh kar Bhushan usake haath se bags le letaa hai aur aur use naashte ki table par jaane ko kah kar khud hee usakaa saamaan usake kamare me rakh kar aa jaata hai.



Naashte ki table par Rai sahab, Sulochana ke saath Rohit bhee baithaa huaa thaa, vo Niharika ko dekh kar khush hote hue use apane paas waali chair par baithane kaa ishaaraa karataa hai magar Niharika usake ishaare ko andekhaa karke Sulochana ke paas hee baithati hai …..jise dekh kar Rohit buraa saa muh banataa hai….. bhushan sabko naashtaa serve kar detaa hai …sab apanaa -2 naashtaa karane me lag jaate hain …. Naa jaane kyo Rai sahab rah rah kar apani ghadi dekh rahe the…..tabhee unake guard ne unhe DSP Bhaarat ke aane ki suchana dee…..

[Indian Princess]

jise sun kar jaha Niharika ke chehare par pareshaani dikhane lagi wahi Rai sahab ke chehare par wahi chir-parichit muskaan khelane lagi jo aksar unake vishwaas kaa praateek hoti hai................................................................................................ Rai sahab ne
apane guard se bol kar DSP ko living room me baithaane ko kaha magar guard ne bola ki vo apane saath 2 lady police bhee laaye hain aur Niharika ko jald se jald apane paas bulaa rahe hain …… rai sahab ne ek baar Sulochana ki taraf dekh kar use Rohit ko andar le jaane kaa ishaaraa kiyaa …

Rohit :-“(mskurate hue guard se)…. Unhe bata do ki yaha koyi Niharika nahi rahati …. Ye meri Manasi hai jo mujhase rooth kar Niharika hone ki baat kah rahi thee … par ab ye mujhase naaraaj nahi hai …. Isliye ye Niharika waala naatak khatm huaa …ab vo jaaye yaha se…”

Rai sahab :-“chhote ! tum apani bhaabhi ke saath andar jaao hum abhee dsp sahab ki galat’fahami door karake aate hai…..(aur use ankho hee ankho me tasalli dete hain)…. Aao ‘Niha.......................................................................................................... ’ Manasi… aap humare
sath chaliye …dekhate hain ki dsp sahab aaj fir se naashte ke vakt kyaa lene aaye hain ……”

Aaj fir se Rai sahab Manasi ki jagah Niharika bolate-2 bach gaye............................................................................................... Niharika unaki wheel chair ko
dhakelate hue unhe living room ki taraf le chali…Rohit bhee uthane ko huaa par Sulochana ne use wahi baithaa diyaa living room me dsp Bhaarat apane saath 2 lady police (jo shayad sub inspector rank ki
thee) ke saath , un logo kaa khade -2 hee intajaar kar raha thaa ..usako khada huaa dekhkar……
Rai sahab:-“kyaa baat hai dsp saahab! Aaj aap humaare yaha baithanaa bhe gawaaraa nahi kar rahe
…humase koyi gustaakhi ho gayi kyaa …yaa humaare kisi bhee aadami ne aapko baithane ke liye nahi puchhaa?”

Bhaarat :-“aapake aadmiyo ne bhee puchhaa thaa aur aapase koyi gustaakhee bhee nahi huyi hai Rai sahab(Rai sahab se apanaa haath milaane ke liye badhaataa huaa)..................................................................................................... par kyaa hai ki aaj mai jara jaldi me
hu …… (fir niharika ki taraf dekhata huaa)...... mere paas aapaki girafataari kaa warrant hai (apani jeb se
warrant nikaal kar dikhaate hue)…mai aapko Kundan daas ki katl ke jurm me giraftaar kartaa hu…. ”

Ye sun kar Niharika ke sar par jaise pahaad toot pada ho …. Vo badhawaas see Rai sahab ki taraf dekh kar ……..

Niharika :-“ye jhuth hai , maine koyi katl nahi kiyaa hai …. Dsp sahab! Aap mere saath aisaa nahi kar sakate ….. kundan daas ka katl us kale kapade waale ne hee kiyaa thaa…. Aap jaakar use giraftaar kijiye
…. Mujhe kyo in sab me fansaa rahe hain …… mai nirdosh hu….(usaki aankhe bhar aati hain)”

Rai sahab :-“ (kuchh krodhit hote hue)D.sp sahab! Aap kis aadhaar par aisaa kar rahe hain ….. lagataa hai ki aapake upar kuchh jyadaa hee dabaaw pad raha hai iss case ko nipataane kaa …..jo aap binaa kisi thos aadhaar ke yaha aa pahuche …akhir suboot kyaa hai aapake paas…”

Bhaarat :-“mai kabhi kisi dabaaw me kaam nahi karataa Rai sahab!........................................................................................................ (rai sahabke haath naa milanepar
apanaa haath vapas apani taraf karate hue) humaari tamaam chhaan been me kahi bhee us kale kapade waale ka koyi astitwaa hee saamane nahi aa raha …jisakaa jikra ye apane bayaan me kar rahi hain
…train me chadhate yaa utarate kisi ne bhee asie kisi kale kapade waale ko nahi dekhaa jisake upar ye motarrimaa Kunadan daas ke khoon kaa iljaam thop rahee hain................................................................................................... yaha tak ki train ke us coupe me bhee
koyi nishaan nahi payaa gaya ..jo inake ya Kundan daas ke alaawaa kisi aur ki upasthiti waha darj karwaa sake fir bhala kis aadhaar par hum ye maan le ki us raat sach me koyi kale kapade waala aadami ye
kaam karake chala gaya ho ….aur maje ki baat aisee krurataa se kundan daas ki maarane waale ne inhe kuchh bhee nahi kara.................................. yaha tak kiinake gale par chaaku ki jo kharonch bhee padi thee use ye kundan
daas ki meharbaani bata rahi hain …..(Niharika par vyangatmak najar daalataa huaa)..kamaal hai…”


Rai sahab :-“kamala to aap kar rahe hain dsp sahab! Investigation ke naam par aap bhee khanaa-purti karate najar aa rahe hain…. Aapakaa kaafi naam sunaa thaa par maaf kijiyega......................................................................................... aapane to mujhe
niraash hee kiyaa …”

Bhaarat:-“aapaki niraashaa ke liye mai bhee khed prakat kartaa hu par abhee to inhe leke chaltaa hu” aur apane saath khadi dono lady police SI (sub-inspectors) se Niharika ko apani custody me lene ko kaha….
Vo dono hee Niharika ki taraf badhati hain jise dekh kar Niharika ghabaraa kar peechhe hatati huyi fir se apanee be-gunaahi waali baat dohraati hai…. Usaki baat ko an’sunaa karate hue vo dono Niharika ko dono taraf se pakadati huyi apane saath le chal padati hai par Niharika apane aap ko chhudaane ki koshish jaari rakhatai hai… ..

Bhaarat :-“(rai sahab se)..inase kahiye ki ye humaare saath co-operate kare ..hume kisi prakaar ki jabar’dasti par majboor naa kare........................ ”

Rai sahab :-“unase to jo kahanaa hai hum baad me kahenge abhee filhaal to jaraa aap humaari baat suniye ….” Aur Bhushan ko aawaaj lagaate hai jise sun kar Bhushan ke saath -2 Sulochana bhee aa jaati hai…..

Rai sahab :-“(sulochana se)…. Achchhaa huaa jo aap bhee yaha aa gayi….vaise …Rohit ke paas kaun hai?”

Sulochana :-“filhaal to unaki ayurvedic treatment ke anusaar bataayi huyi maalish ho rahi hai …… (fir lady police dwaara Niharika ko pakade khade dekh kar)…ye kyaa tamaashaa laga rakhaa hai in logo ne
….. Niharika ko kyo pakad rakhaa hai inlogo ne?”

Rai sahab :-“vo to hum baad me bataayenge ….filhaal aap jara humaari study table ki drawer se vo papers lete aaiye jinake baare me humane kal aapko bataaya thaa.. ”

Abhee laayi bol kar sulochana 2 minutes me un papers ko le aayi …… ek baar sarsari taur par un papers ko dekhkar Rai sahab ne un papers ko Bhaarat ke hawaale karate hue …

Rai sahab :-“ye lijiye …. Ye Niharika ke agrim jamaanat (anticipatory bell) ke papers hain, inhe dekh lijiye aur Niharika ko apane saath giraftaar karane ka khyaal dimaag se nikaal dijiye……”

Bhaarat :-“(papers ko dekhate hue )…to aapaki taiyyaaru pahale se hee ho gayi thee ..(muskurate hue)… aapake saath to maja aayegaa Rai sahib… mujhe bhee aasaan cases solve karane me maja nahi aata hai
…aapane meri complication badhaa dee …. Is complication ke liye dhanyawaad…”

Rai sahib :-“jise aap complication kah rahe hai ….vo ek sachchaayi hai janaab ! vaise aapakee jaan kaari ke liye bata du ki jis kale kapade waale ko aap Niharika ki man- gadhant baat bata rahe hai …vo man- gadhant aadami is ghar me do baar aa chukaa hai …kal raat to usane humare ek aadami par humalaa bhee kiyaa (bhushan ki taraf ishaaraa karate hue)…. Isake sar par lagi chot dekh lijiye …kam se kam ..ye aap ko man-gadhant nahi lagegi ……”
Bhaarat :-“ (Bhushan ki taraf dekhate hue)….. idhar aao bhai sahab ..jara apane foote huesar ka deedar to kara dijiye…..(bhushan ke usake paas aane me asamanjas ki sthiti me khada huaa dekh kar)..are aa bhee jaao prabhu!mai sarkari kuttaa jarur hu par har kisi aire gaire ko nahi kat’taa……”

Rai sahab kaa ishaaraa paa kar Bhushan Bhaarat ki taraf jaata hai aura pane sar ko usakee najaro ke saamane karane ke liye jhukaa detaa hai..

Bhaarat :-“wah-2 ! kyaa andaaj hai janaab kaa…… binaa malik ki marji ke hilate bhee nahi hai Bhai sahab ….vaise kyaa maara thaa us kale kapade waale ne aapako?”

Bhushan :-“humkaa pataa naay (nahi) pada oo sasur humakaa kaun cheej se maaraa raha…par jaune cheej se maaraa raha …. (apane sar par haath firaate hue)Bahute tej laag raha ”

Bhaarat :-“hmmm…(bhushan ke lahaje ki nakal karate hue)…..bahute tej laag raha ……. Kaun se jille (distt.) ki paidaawaar ho bhai ?is dhara (soil) ki upaj to nahi lagate…”

Bhushan :-“(chidhe swar me) hum kaa kauno gajar-muli hain joun aap humakaa paidaa waar bolat hain…. Are puchhanaa to ee chaahat raha ki ‘bhaiyya ji! Aap kaha ke raahe waala hain’ bujhale(samajhe) ki naahi ? ”

Bhaarat :-“chalo aise hee sahi (dono haath jod kar …bhushan ke andaaj me)… ‘bhaiyya ji! Aap kaha ke raahe waala hain’……”

Rai sahab :-“dsp sahab! Aap fijool me apanaa aur humaaraa vakt jaaya kar rahe hain …sirf kaam ki baat kariye…ye bhee yaad rakhiye ki agar aap sarkaari mulaajim naa hote to ab tak hum aapako baahar kaa raastaa dikaa chuke hote…. Aapako jis kisi bhee natije par pahuchana hai … jald se waha pahuchiye aur yaha se apani rawaanagi tay kijiye…”

Bhaarat :-“(chidhe se andaaj me)..... apane yaha kaam karane waale har kisi ke liye aap aise hee sochate
hain yaa ye hee dono kuchh khaas hai aapake…… aur raha sawaal kisi nateeje par pahuchane kaa to suniye jara dhyaan se........................................ ab aapake iss naukar ki medical jaanch hogi aur vo bhee sarkari hospital ke
sarkaari doctor se …aapake kisi bhee private doctors ko humaari maanyata nahi mili hai…. Aur yadi aapake ghar me vo kale kapade waala do baar aa chukaa hai to abhee tak aapane koyi complaint kyo nahi

darj karaayi….ya fir mere aane kaa intjaar kar rahe the aap ?”

Rai sahab :-“kal raat hee aapake SP city ko humaaraa e-mail jaa chukaa hai Dsp sahab…..raha sawaal aapake intjaar kaa ….to vo humane kal se hee shuru kar diyaa thaa…jis tarah se aap achanak hee uth kar chale gaye the hume puraa yakeen thaa ki aapaki vaapasi kuchh aise hee andaaj me hogi….(vyangatmak andaaj se ) Itane saal se humane bhee vakalat me jhakk nahi maaree hai shreemaan ji! ”

Bhaarat :-“aapane kyaa maaraa hai kyaa nahi ..vo to mai baad me dekh lungaa...................................................................................................... mere haath se koyi
apraadhee chhut ke bach jaaye ye mere liye doob marane kee baat hai ..aur mere haath se koyi be-gunaah ko saja mile ye bhee mere liye garv ki baat nahi hogi....mujhe meri puchh taachh karane dijiye................................................................................................ bekaar ke
adange naa adaaiye... (bhushan se mukhatib hote hue)........ haa bhai ! tum kuchh batane waale the apane
baare me... ”

Bhushan :-“hum kaha bataane waale the ..khud aap he puchh rahe the humaare baare me................................................................................................. humako koyi
shauk naahi hai be-fijool me har kisi ko apane baare me bak-bak kare kaa...................................................................................................... vaise aapa puchh rahe hho to

hain.....(garv se seenaa kuchh chaaudaa kartaa huaa).....ab pata lag ki hum kaun jillhaa se aawat hain..”

Bhaarat :-“badi meharbaani aapaki jo aapane itane sankshep(short) me apanaa aura pane man-bhaawan jille kaa parichay de diya.... mai to ek dum gad-gad (glad) ho gaya................................................................................................. chalo ab ekdum sach sach bataao ki
ye bataao ki ye chot tumhe kaise lagi ?”

Bhushan :-“ (pareshaan saa hotaa huaa).. abhee to bataay rahe ki ye chot humakaa oo kale kapade waala
adamiyaa maar ke gawaa rahaa...ab isame nawaa baat kaa bataay saahab ”...

Bhaarat :-“maine sach batane ko kaha hai ...Bhushan jee ! ekdum sach bolo..”

Rai sahab :-“aap humaare aadami par bekaar ke dabaaw naa daale.......................................................................................................... vo bol chukaa hai jo usako bolana
thaa...ab kyaa usake muh se aap apani kahi huyi baat bulwaayenge..”

Bhaarat :-“bulwaane par aaye to hum kuchh bhee bulawaa sakate hai isase........................................................................................................ par abhee tak mai sirf aur sirf
sach hee jaan’naa chahtaa hu ....aur ye hai ki sach bol nahi raha............................................................................................................ ”

Bhushan :-“are RAAM ji ki saugandh ! hum ab aur kaun saa sach bole aapase SARKAR!..................................................................................................... chalo jo aap
bol do uhe humahu bol denge.. ”

Bhushan ab apane Rai sahab ked um par Dsp se direct pangaa lene ke mood me aa gaya thaa................................................................................................... tathaa
Bhaarat ki baar- sach bolane ki maang bhee use bahut kheejaa rahi thee.....

Bhaarat :-“(rai sahab se )sach to ye hai ki kale kapade waale kaa koyi astitvaa hee nahi hai........................................................................................................ aur pahale
to ye mohtarrimaa aur ab ye aapakaa naukar .....dono hee jhuth bol rahe hai...................................................................................................... aisaa kaise ho sakataa hai

(fir kuchh
sochataa huaa....niharika ki taraf ishaaraa karate hue).. mujhe inake saamaan ki talaashi leni hai........................................................................................................ aap

ijaajat dete hai to theek nahi to mai search warrant leke aane ki zehmat uthaau...”

Rai sahab :-“kaanoon ki sahayataa karanaa meraa bhee farz hai dsp sahab! Aap jab chaahe is ghar k talaashi le sakate hai...................... ”

Bhaarat:-“suhkriyaa!...mujhe sirf Niharika je eke saaman ki talaashee leni hai....................................................................................................... baki kisi aur cheej me
meraa interest nahi hai... ”

Rai sahab :-“bade shoul se! (niharika ki taraf ishaaraa karate hue)....................................................................................................... inhe apane kamare me le jaiye aur
inaki madad kariye”

Niharika bina kuchh kahe apane kamare ki taraf chal padati hai..................................................................................................... usake saath-2 vo dono lady police
bhee jaati hain..... niharika ke kamare me.... peeche-2 Bhaarat ka jaana to laajimi hee thaa aur Rai
sahab,Sulochana waha kyo naa jaate... so unakaa naam likhane ki aisee koyi aawashayakataa to thee nahi
fir bhee likh deta hu....... waha jaakar Bhaarat ke ishaare par lady police ne saara saamaan jo abhee BAGs
me hee thaa use ulat pulat ke dekh daalaa par kuchh bhee aapattijanak vastu nahi mili......................................................................................................... jab un police
waaliyo ne apane haath khade kar diye tab Niharika ne ek vijayi muskaan ke saath Bhaarat ki taraf dekhaa....

Bhaarat :-“(kuchh kheejata huaa sa)..... ‘well every DOG has a day’.................................................................................................... meraa waalaa aaj nahi hai
shayad..”

Tab tak Bhushan ji, jo iss kshanik vijay se gauravanvit mehsoos kar rahe the.... bol pade ...

Bhushan :-“agar is kamare ki talaashi se jee naay bharaa ho Darogaa babu! To upar waala kamaraa maa bhee jhaank ke dekh liyo....abhee jas kaa tas hai uhaa sab..”
Usaki baat sunkar jaha Rai sahab,Niharika aur Sulochana kheej gaye the wahi Bhaarat ke kaan khade ho gaye the .... fir ekdum se use kuchh yaad aata hai .....
Bhaarat :- “(chidhe hue swar me).... Haajipur ke Kaaji sahab ! agar apanee aankhe khol kar dekhenge to
meree ye wardee par jade sitaare DSP ke hai naa ki kisi DAROGA ke.............................................................................................. (Bhushan apane kandhe uchakaa
detaa hai ...jisase Bhaarat aur bhee chidh jaata hai...fir usako ignore karataa huaa)........................................................................................................ aur ye upar wale
kamare kaa kyaa chakkar hai...... (rai sahab ki taraf dekhata huaa) kyaa ye kamaraa Niharika kaa nahi

Sulochana :-“dar-asal kal ke haadase ke baad... humane Niharika ko upar wale kamare me rakhanaa safe
naa samajhaate hue isako apane paas waale kamare me rakhane kaa faisalaa kiyaa thaa......................................................................................................... kal raat se
pahale ye upar ke kamare me hee rahi thee....par waha kaa saaraa saamaan to yahi par hai............................................................................................................. I mean
Niharika ka samaan... ”

Bhaarat :-“fir bhee mai use dekhana chahungaa Madam..”

Rai sahab :-“aap apane saare armaan pure kar lijye Dsp sahab...................................................................................................... baad me mat kahiyegaa ki koyi kasar
chhut gayi thee aapase ...kisi bekasoor ko fansaane me.... ”
Bhaarat kuchh kahata nahi bas apane kandhe uchaka detaa hai. Sulochana bhushan ko isharaa karati hai police team ko upar waale kamare me le jaane kaa..................................... bhushan apane peechhe-2 aane kaa bol kar upar ki
taraf badh jaata hai ....
Fir se puri mandali upar ke kamare ki taraf badh jaati hai...................................................................................................... upar ke kamare me saari almaariyaa to

pahale se hee khaali padi thee... to unhe to ek najar me hee dekh kar ye faisalaa ho gaya ki uname kuchh
nahi hai ..... baaki bed ke gaddo ko ulatane pulatane ki bhee formality puri karake dekh lee gayi........................................................................................................... so waha
bhee kuchh naa milaa.... bhaarat ne ek aakhiri koshosh karate hue bathroom ko khud check karane ka
nirnay liyaa.... usane bath room me pahale to sirf ek sar-sari najar bhar daali fir kuchh soch kar usane
bath room me lage flush tank ke dhakkan ko khol kar dekhaa............................................................................................... dhakkan kholate hee usaki aankho me
chamak aa gayi..... flush tank me ek chaaku pada huaa thaa..................................................................................................... usane gloves (dastaane) pahanate hue us
chaaku ko uthaa liyaa aur bahar aa kar baki sabako dikhaantaa huaa ....

Bhaarat :-“bas ! kuchh aisi hee cheej ,ilane kaa mujhe shaque thaa...................................................................................................... kyaa khub milaa hai ye bhee”

Jaha sab use dekh kar pareshaan ho jate hai wahi ..Rai sahab abhee bhee apani muskaan kaa daaman nahi chhod rahe the....

Bhaarat :-“ (rai sahab ki muskurahat se kuchh andaaja lagaate hue).......................................................................................................... ab aapkaa! Isake baare me kyaa
kahana hai Rai sahab... ”
Rai sahab :-“ye kuchh khaas cheej nahi hai mere liye...... khaas taur par tab ,jab vo kale kapade waala
aadami yaha do baar aa chukaa hai ..... aur ‘khushkismati’ se (fir se vyangatmak andaaj me).. aapaki nahi Niharika ki khushkismati se ...... aapane ye chaaku humaari FIR ke baad baramad kee hai.................................................................................................. atah ye
chaaku humaare liye koyi mayane nahi rakhataa naa hee koyi bhee adalat isako Niharika ke khilaf kisi sabot ke taur par kabool karegi............................. ”

Bhaarat :-“ (prabhavit najaro se Rai sahab ko dekhata huaa).... aapaki baato me dum hai Rai sahab........................................................................................................ par
ye chaaku mere liya fir bhee behad aham suraag saabit ho sakataa hai........................................................................................................... ye wahi chaaku hai ki nahi jisase
kundan daas ka katl huaa thaa..... ye to sirf laboratory ki jaanch se hee pata lagegaa.................................................................................................... filhaal to mai ise

theory par kaayam hu ki aise kisi kale kapade waale aadami ka astitwa kam se kam us raat me to nahi thaa...jis raat kundan daas ka katl huaa thaa.......................... ”

Rai sahab :-“aapako apani theory par kayam rahane ka pura-2 haque hai janaab........................................................................................................ par kripayaa hume us
theory par chalane par majboor naa kare.... ”

Bhaarat :-“majboor mai nahi mere sabot karenge aapako ....filhaal......................................................................................................... aaj ki mulakaat me to aap fir se
bhaaree pade hain .... (muskuraate hue) next may be MINE... ab to haath mila he lijiye............................................................................................................ ” aur
muskuraataa huaa apanaa haath aage karata hai jise Rai sahab apane hath se milaate hue .......
Rai sahab :-“case ko jald se jald nipataa kar apane record ko bar’karaar rakhane ki soch se itar yadi aap khule dimaag se anyaa pahaluo par dhyaan denge to shayad ye case aapako itnaa pecheedaa nahi lagegaa”

Bhaarat :-“ye sab hum aane waale vakt par chhod dete hain.... fir se takleef dene aaungaa..................................................................................................... abhee to

Bhushan usaki baat ko sun kar Rai sahab ki taraf dekhata hai ......
Rai sahab :-“ghabraao nahi Bhushan! Tum bina kisi hikichahat ke saath inake saath jaao........................................................................................................... ye tumhase jo
bhee puchhenge vo tum inhe sab sach sach bata denaa...... (Bhaarat ki taraf mukhatib hote hue)........................................................................................................ aap
par bharosaa karake bina apane kisi assistant ko isake saath kiye mai ise aapake saath bhej raha hu.......
koyi jyadati naa hone paaye isake saath... ”

Bhaarat ne muskuraate hue haami bhar dee aur Bhushan ko apane saath leke chala gaya................................................................................................. bhaarat ke
jaane ke baad lagbhag sabane chain kee saans lee.......
Sulochana :-“(raisahab se )..... aap chaaku ke milane ke baad bhee itane itminaan se kaise baithe rah gaye
the...... kyaa us chaaku kaa milanaa aapake liye koyi badi naat thee?............................................................................................................ ”

Rai sahab :-“(muskuraate hue) lagataa hai humaari dharma patni ko hee ab humaaree kaabliyat par shque ho gaya hai......(sulochana ke chehare par jhunjalahat dekh kar )...are bhaai!............................................................................................ humane e-mail se
S.P. sahab ko jo FIR likhwaayi the usame yahi to likhaa thaa ki humaare ghar me vo kale kapade waala aadami 2 baar gair kaanooni tarike se ghusaa thaa............................................................................. (prashnatmak tarike se dekhate hue ) aur ye
chaaku kab milaa humaare ghar me ?............. (khud he jawaab dete hue)........................................................................................................... us kale kapade waale aadami
ko humaare ghar me dekhe jaane ke baad............. yakinan ye ‘chaaku’ agar vohee ‘chaaku’ hai.................................................................................................. jisakaa
ki hume bhee puraa yakeen hai...... to ye apane aap ek bada evidence (saboot) hogaa kaatil ke khilaaf par
..... abhee to hum yaha bade aaraam se ye siddh kar sakate hain ki ye chaaku iss ghar me ya iss kamare me us kale kapade waale aadami ne hee plant kiyaa thaa...... DSP bhaarat bhee iss baat ko samajh gaya thaa....
(fir se muskuraate hue sulochana se ).... ab to aap samajh hee gayi hongee ki us chaaku ke milane se hume
koyi fark kyo nahi pada thaa... ”

Rai sahab ki baate sun kar Niharika bhee kuchh santusht dikhayi dee fir ......
Rai sahab :-“Niharika! Kyaa aapane is chaaku ko pahale kabhee dekhaa thaa.................................................................................................... meraa matlab iss ghar me
yaa iss kamare me................. ?”

Niharika :-“nahi Sir! Maine aaj pahali baar is chaaku ko dekhaa thaa.................................................................................................... mujhe to pata bhee nahi chala
ki kab ye chaaku yaha pahuch gaya..... kal raat bhee main eek saya apane kamare ke bahar dekhaa thaa
...fir usake thodi hee der baad ..bhushan bhaiyaa ki cheekh sunaayi dee thee................................................................................................... hadase ki dahshat ki
vajah se main aap logo ko ye baat bata nahi paayi....... sach kahu to us train ki cabin me kale kapade waala
aadami mujhe Kundan daas ke mukabale jyada safe lag raha thaa par ab yu usakaa baar-2 yaha aanaa meri samajh se baahar hai.............................. ”

Rai sahab :-“exactly !..yahi to vo baat hai jo rah -2 kar humaare dimaag me khatak rahi hai ..agar usako kuchh karanaa hee hotaa to vo vahee train me hee aapake saath jo chaahe vo kar sakataa thaa par vaha usane kuchh nahi kiyaa aur yaha baar -2 is ghar me usakaa aanaa ........... (gambheer hote hue)..................................................................................................... naa jaane
usakaa iraadaa kyaa hai....... usaka baare me jaisaa humane sunaa thaa usase humane yahi sochaa thaa ki
shayad usaki Kundan daas se koyi dushmani thee ya fir Kundan daas ne kuchh behad galat kaam kiyaa hoga usake saath ........jisakee vajah se usane itani berahami se kundan daas ka khoon kiyaa............................................................................................... par ab
usakaa yu yaha baar-2 aana....... ”

Sulochana :-“ shayad ab usako Niharika se khataraa mehsoos ho raha ho.............................................................................................. (Niharika aur Rai sahab ko
chintit dekh kar).... aap dono yu chintaa naa kare ! security bahut tight kar dee gayi hai.......................................................................................................... vo ab yaha nahi
aa payegaa .... .. (kuchh yaad aata hai fir )....... chaliye ab jara in sab baato se apanaa dhyaan hata kar aaj
‘Jaipur Foot Center’ ke .... expert aapako dekhane aa arahe hai ...unake aane kaa bhee time ho raha .....
pichhali baar vo log aapake pair ka measurement (naap) le hee gaye the................................................................................................... (khush hote hue) Bhagwaan ne
chaahaa to bahut jald hee aap is wheel chair ke binaa bhee ghum fir sakenge” Niharika ko kuchh samajh me nahi aa raha thaa to usako bataate hue ....
Sulochana :-“ Jaipur Foot Center vo jagah hai jaha par door-2 se log apane un ango, khaas taur par haath-

paanw (hands and legs) vapas paane ke liye aate hai jinhe vo kisi na kisi haadase me kho dete hai.......................................................................................................... ke

kritrim (artificial) roop paa jaate hai..... kaafi saare logo ne inhe badi safalataa purvak apanaaya hai......

vaise to ye kaam surgeon(shalya-chikitsak) ek operation ke jariye un artificial limbs (kritrim ang ‘nakali body parts’’)........................... ko sharer me fit kar dete hain par un experts ka kahanaa hai ki Rai sahab ko pahale

detachable (alag ho sakane waala) pair ki aadat daalani chahiye taaki aage jab nakali pair inake shareer se judenge tab tak inhe un nakali pairo ka abhyaas ho chukaa hogaa ”



Rai sahab :-“ (sulochana ki khushi dekhate hue..... majaak me )........................................................................................................ aap bhee nahi chahati ki jo aaraam

hume is pahiye waali gaadi se mil raha hai vo aage naa mile..... ”

Sulochana :-“(thodaa gusse se ).... Bhushan ki tarah aapako bee bak-bak karane ki aadat pad gayi hai
shayad ..... jyada bak-bak naa kare aur chup chaap jakar taiyaar ho jaaiye.......................................................................................................... vo log kisi bhee samay aate
honge... ”

Rai sahab ne muskurate hue apani wheel chair ko aage badhaaya aur..................................................................................................... jaate-2 unhone Niharika ko
kuchh kaam bataaye jo Niharika ko lunch time tak karake denaa thaa......

Niharika study room me jakar apanaa kaam shuru kar deti hai................................................................................................... kareeb 2-3 ghante ki kadi mehnat ke
baad usane apanaa kaam khatm kar liyaa..... Rai sahab ko study room ke intercom se inform karane ke
bad usake paas koyi khaas kaam nahi bachaa thaa. Rai sahab ne bhee use aur koyi kaam saupaa nahi to vo yu hee study room ke book-shelves me rakhi kitaabo me se apane pasand ki koyi kitaab nikaal kar padhane lagi...... vo kitaab padh hee rahi thee ki .......

marane ki bhee naa huyi meri unhe khabar,
saanse chali jab talak kari bhala tune kabhee fikar, saanse chhod baithee hain ab daaman umra kaa, baithaa raha vo yaar meraa, kuchh masroof is kadar..

ye rohit thaa jo kuchh tanj kasane jaise andaaj me ye sher maar raha thaa............................................................................................... Niharika ki samajh me kuchh
aaya to usane muskuraa ke Rohit ko dekhaa....
niharika:-“ye taana kyo maar rahe hain aap?” Rohit:-“hakeekat ko taana maranaa nahi kahate......................................................................... ”
Niharika :-“to ye aap abhee hakeekat bayani kar rahe the.. mai samajhee kahi par padhaa huaa sher yaha
chipakaa rahe the.. ”

Rohit :-“(kuch naraajagi se)...... chahe beshak ghatiya bol do mere sgero ko magar inhe kabhee bhee kisi
aur kaa mat samajhana... achchhaa yaa buraa jaisaa bhee ho mai sher kahataa hu to sirf apane banaye
hue..... kyaa samajhee?.. ”
Niharika :-“mujhe iname koyi shouk nahi hai.. to mujhe kuchh idea bhee nahi ki ye aapaka khud kaa hai
ye kisi aur ka....... (thodaa shokhi se) ab aap kya samajhe? ”

Niharika in saari baato ke dauraan Rohit ke saath kuchh betakalluf najar aa rahi thee...... shayad subah-2 huyi mulaakaat se usaki hichak ab kuchh kam ho gayi thee.... ya fir khatm hee ho gayi thee.....

Rohit :-“tum mujhe kuchh badali-2 see kyo najar aati ho.... vo pahale jaisee baate karane me tumhare
andar ek ajeeb see hichak mehsos kar raha hu mai kal se....kyaa baat hai................................................................................................ mujhase ab tak naaraaj ho
kyaa...maine to sirf majak kiya thaa... ”

Niharika :-“ye tum kis majaak ki baat kar rahe ho? ..mujhe to kuchh bhee naaraajagi nahi hai aapase............................................................................................................ ”
Rohit :-“yadi aisaa nahi hai to fir mujhe AAP-2 karake kyo bulaati ho tum................................................................................................... pahale ki tarah TUM kyo
nahi kahati? Ye AAP kitanaa ajanabi jaisaa lagataa hai..... ”
Niharika :-“(baat ko sambhalate hue) are vo to mai aapake ghar me hu naa.......................................................................................................... ab bhala sabake saamane
mai tumhe TUM kahungee to ye kyaa achchhaa lagegaa.... baat ko samajhaa karo................................................................................................... bekaar me naaraaj
ho jaate ho ghadi-2... ”
Rohit :-“ (is baar kuchh muskuraata hua)..... mai bhala apani Manasi se kaise naaraaj rah sakata hu (fir
kuchh yaad karate hue)..... tumhe yaad hai maine tumase kaha thaa ki jab tum Raj nagar aaogi tab mai
tumhe meraa favorite restaurant me JAWED ki mash’hoor firani khilwaaungaa....................................................................................................... pata hai log to sirf
unake haatho ki bani firani ki photographs bhee apane saath le jaane me bada fakrha mehsoos karate hain..... mai aaj hee tumako waha jarur le chalungaa........................ ”

Niharika :-“bhala aaj mai kaise jaa sakati hu aap..... I mean tumhaare saath......................................................................................................... aaj abhee mujhe kaafi
saara kaam hai ..... bina in sabako nipataye mai kaise jaa sakati hu........................................................................................................ aur tumhaari tabiyat bhee to theek
nahi hai.... pahale doctor se is baat ke liye permission to leni padegi naa............................................................................................................ ”
Niharika ne kisi tarah se apani jaan chhudaani chaahi par Rohit ne jaise aaj than hee rakhaa thaa use Jawed ki firani khilane kaa............................. vo bas apani jidd par adaa huaa thaa. Niharika kaa koyi bhee bahanaa use
manjoor nahi ho raha thaa..... Niharika badi hee asamanjas me pad gayi ki kaise vo Rohit aur jawed ki
firani se apana peechhaa chhudaaye tabhee usakaa sankat mochak ban kar Bhushan waha pahuch gaya
.....

Bhushan :-“are bhaiyyaa ji ! aap bhee kaha us fokatiyaa maal paryog karane waalaa us Jawed aur usaki firani ke peeche pade hain ...are aapko to kaafi jamaanaa huy gaya....................................................................................................... ab to uha vaisan raunak naay laagat

aap”

Rohit :-“ (chidhe hue swar me)...... tumase kisi ne ray maangi kyaa............................................................................................... (bhushan ke nakaratmak me sar
hilane par).....fir ? maine soch liya hai ki aaj to mai Manasi ko bahar leke he jaaungaa... (uttejit swar me)...
chahe koyi kuchh bhee kahe.. ”

Rohit ki uttejana badhati dekh kar bhushan aur Niharika thoda pareshaan se ho gaye...................................................................................................... unhe kuchh
samajh me nahi aa raha thaa ki ab kyaa kare....... khair baat ko taalane ki garj se Niharika ne haami bhar
dee par sath me sulochana ki manjuri ki shart bhee rakh dee jise Rohit ne khushi-2 manjur bhee kar li.

Lunch taiyyaar ho chukka thaa atah usake liye bulawa bhee aa gaya un sabko................................................................................................ bhushan ko vapas aaya
dekh kar Rai sahab ne usaki kushal kshem puchhee ...
Bhushan :-“baaki to sab theek hee raha sahab... hiya se oo bade Daroga babu humako sarkaari doctor ke
lage(paas) le gaye aur uhaa humari jaanch kare ka bol dihen...................................................................................................... thodi der me hum kaa dekhat hain ki ek tho

Sulochana :-“itana lambaa mat kheenco Bhushan ! bas itana bata do ki tumhara check-up aur puchh taachh ke dauraan tumhaare saath koyi badsalooki to nahi huyi naa................................................................................................ ”

Bhushan :-“(bujhe mann se)... haa to uhai to bataay rahe the........................................................................................................ par humaar baat to kauno sunataa hee
kaha hai ...kabaho humakaa puree baat karane bhee naahi detaa koyi...... (ukhade swar me).......................................................................................................... ek badaa

puchhe rahen ...par hum jab kuchh janate naay rahe tab kaa batwat unakaa............................................................................................................ ”

Bhushan saans lene ke liye rukaa to sulochana ne mauke kaa fayadaa uthaa kar use turant aage koyi aur bak-bak na karane kaa maukaa dete hue use kitchen se sweet dish laane ko kah diyaa............................................................................................ bhushan ke jaate
hee Rohit ne sulochana se aaj sham ko manasi ke saath bahar jaane ke liye anumati maangee jise sun kar Sulochana , Niharika ki taraf dekhane lagi......................... fir

Sulochana :-“aap abhee bahar nahi jaa sakate.... abhee doctor ne aapako puraa aaraam karane ko kaha
hai... to aap apane aaraam par puraa dhyaan dijiye.... jab doctor aapko ijaajat de denge to hum jarur
aapako bahar jaane ki manjuri de denge.”

Rohit :-“magar bhabhi! Mai ekdum theek to hu.... bhala mujhe kahi bahar jaane ke liye doctor se kyo
puchhana padegaa.....(jidd karataa huaa).... aaj mujhe baahar janaa hee jaana hai..................................................................................................... chahe kuchh bhee ho
jaaye.. ”

Rohit ki badhati uttejana dekhate hue Rai sahab ne use samajhaane ki aakhiri koshish karate hue kaha ...
“ek baar jara hum doctor se puchh le chhote! Unake kahane ke baad tum beshak bahar jaa sakate ho”

Rai sahab :-“ (bhushan ki taraf dekhate hue)..... kya y wahi hai jo............................................................................................................ ”
Bhushan :-“ (unka ishara samajhate hue)...ji haa sahab! Ye wahi hai......................................................................................................... kal raat yahi to thaa vo jo Niharika
ji ko Manasi-2 kah raha thaa.... ”

Rai sahab :-“ (chintit hote hue...).... kal raat kyaa Rohit ne us aadami par bahut jyada to nahi chillaaya
thaa ? ”

Bhushan :-“ chillaaaye to the sahab!...... par vo to koyi badi baat naahi rahi.................................................................................................... kauno aadami bhee unaki
jagah hota to wahi karat jaun chhote bhaiyyaa kare rahe................................................................................................ sachchee me thode he maar det hain koyi
aise....(samjhaane jaise bhaaw me) haaa naahi to... ”
Rai sahab :-“(lambee saans chhodate hue) phir bhee ! ab Rohit ko kanoni daaw-penh ka saamanaa to karnaa hee padegaa naa..... humane galat kia jo kal usaki zid k aage jhuk gaye................................................................................................. usako abhee bahar jaane
hee nahi denaa thaa.... khair ab kyaa kiyaa ja sakataa hai ... (kuchh sochate hue)....................................................................................................... jaldi se jaa kar
Sulochana ko ye baat bataa do aur unako yaha bulaa kar laao...................................................................................................... vaise Rohit aur Niharika kaha hain ?”

Bhushan :-“jee! vo dono to abhee apane-2 kamaro me hee honge”
Ye baat bol kar Bhushan Sulochana ko bulaane chala jaata hai thodi hee der me Sulochana Rai sahab ke paas aa jati hai. Usake chehare pad ud rahi hawayiyo se ye saaf pata hal raha tha ki Bhushan ne usako bhee vo khabar sunaa ya dikhaa dee thee.
Sulochana :-“ (chintit swar me) ye kyaa huaa..... Rohit ko koyi pareshani to nahi jhelani padegi naa............................................................................................................ ”
Rai sahab :-“usi ke intjaamaat ke liye to humane aapako yaad kiyaa hai....................................................................................................... jaldi se Doctor sahab ko yaha

bulaaiye...... aur unase unakaa letter pad bhee lete aane ko bol dijiye. Policiyaa tehakikaat me Rohit kaa
naam aane me jyada der nahi lagegi.... ”

Sulochana ne fatafat doctor ko apane ghar pahuchane ke liye phone kar diyaa. Bhushan bhee Rohit aur Niharika kea apane-2 kamaro me hone ki pushti kartaa huaa vapas aa gaya. Usake mutabik Rohit to so raha thaa aur Niharika apane ghar par baat kar rahi thee tathaa naha kar neche aane ki baat bol rahi thee. bhushan ne abhee usako is hatyakand ke baare me nahi batayaa thaa.

Thodi hee der me doctor sahab bhe waha pahuch gaye, Rai sahab ne unako haalaat se awagat karayaa. Kal ki saaree baate Sun kar Doctor ne lambe saans let hue kaha
Doctor :-“ Rohit ki mental condition abhee ya kabee bhee itani unsettle(asthir) nahi rahi ki vo kuchh aisaa kare..... ye manasi naam ki ladaki jarur hee usaki bhad khaas rahi hai.................................................................................................... aur Niharika ki shakl vakayi me
usase milati hogi..... Rohit may be a unwell minded personality but he cant be disguised by a well known
face ever...... (fir aane letter pad se ek kagaj faadata huaa ..)..................................................................................................... Rohit ko police ki enquiry se bahaane ke liye
mai usakee mental condition kaa ek certificate issue kar detaa hu....................................................................................................... (Rai sahab ki taraf muskuraa ke
dekhat hue)court me isakaa istemaal kaise karanaa hai... ye to aap behtar jaanate hee hai ”
Rai sahab:-“khaas taur par issee certificate ke liye hee maine aapako yaha bulwaaya thaa.......................................................................................................... ab mai baaki
ki karywaahi jald court ke shuru hote hee kar lungaa.... bas darr sirf iss baat ka hai ki humare haath me
court ka stay order aane se pahale police yaha naa aajye ”
Doctor :-“agar aap kahe to....... stay order Milan se pahale mai Rohit ko apane sath apane asylums (pagal-
khaanaa) me le jaau...jaise hee aapako vo order milataa hai , aap Rohit ko vapas bulawaa lijiyegaa............................................................................................................ ”

Rai sahab :-“nahi Doctor sahab ! hum apane bhai ko pagal khane bhejane ke baare me soch bhee nahi sakate.... aapakaa bahut-2 shukriyaa..”
Doctor samajh gaya ki ab Rai sahab apane shareefaanaa andaaj me usako waha se jaane ke liye kah ahe hai, ishaare ko samajhataa huaa vo vaha se jaane ki ijajat le letaa hai......

Idhar doctor waha se nikalataa hai aur udhar Niharika apane kamare se neeche aati hai, usako bhee ye baat bata dee jaati hai.......................................... sunate hee aash’anuroop uake haath paanw phool jaate hain. Mushkil se ek hafta
(week) bhee nahi huaa thaa use apane ghar se nikale aur har roj kuchh naa kuchh naya aur khatarnaak ‘haadasaa’ jaisaa hee usake saath ho raha thaa. Bechaari sirf apanee family problem ki vajah se hee itanaa sab jhel ahi thee nahi to normal condition me vo kab kee yaha se apane ghar bhaag jaati. Abhee Rai sahab Niharika se kuchh baat kar paate ki unake naukar ne unhe police ke aane ki suchanaa de dee ...............


Rai sahab :-“ ye to aur bhee gadbad ho gayi......(naukar se).. un sabako pur adar ke saath bithaa kar kilaao
pilaao hum abhe aate hai.”

Sulochana ki taraf pareshaani s dekhate hue....... Sulochana unake paas aa kar unake kandhe par apanaa
haath rakh kar unako tasalli detee hai aur unaki wheel chair ko living room ki taraf le jaati hai. Living room me police ka ek three star inspector apane saath do constable liye hue baithaa thaa. Vaise to mamuli puchh taachh ke liye koyi bhee mamuli sub-inspector bhee aa sakataa hai par yaha baat shahar ke ek mash’hoor gharaane ki hai yaani RAI gharaana. Rai sahab ko aata dekh kar vo sab apani jagah se khade ho gaye.
Rai sahab :-“are baithiye-2! (senior Ins. Se mukhatib hote hue)......................................................................................................... aaj subah-2 kaise takaleef kari janab ?
kyi khaas baat hai kyaa ? ”

Sr.Inspector :-“ jee haa Rai sahab ! baat to khaas hee thee isiliye subah-2 aapako takaleef dee. Kal raat shahar me ek katl huaa hai................................................ jisake baare me thakikaat karane par ye pata laga hai ki aapak chot bhai
ka us aadami k saath jhagadaa huaa thaa aur unhone us aadami ko jaan se maarane ki dhamaki bhee dee thee hum usi silsile m unas puchh-taachh karanaa chahte hain. Aap jara unako umaare saamane
bulaaye......... ”

Rai sahab :-“agar aap ye jaanate hain ki vo humaaraa bhai hai to aapusake baare m bhee janate he honge Inspectr sahab. ”

Sr.Ins:- “ agar aapakaa ishaaaa uakee dimaagi haalat ki taraf hai to hum jaanat hain us baare me , (kuchh sochate hue).... chaliye unake saath jo mahilaa thee unhee ko bulawaa dijiye................................................................................................... jara unase hee kuchh
puchh taanchh kar lete hain......... isame to koi dikkat nahi hai aapako............................................................................................................ ”

Rai sahab :-“ nahi unase puchh-taachh karane me hume koyi dikkat nahi hai........................................................................................................ aur yakeen kariye agar
humaaraa bhai ek normal dimaag kaa insaan hota to beshak hum usase bhee aapako milawaa dete........................................................................................................ par
abhee to binaa doctor ki ijajat ke hum unase nahi milawaa sakate hain...... (Sulochana se)........................................................................................................ aap jara
Niharika ko yaha bulawaa dijiye.... ”

Fir Rai sahab ne Sulochana ko kuchh ishaaraa kiyaa jisako Sulochana baakhubi samajh gayi thee aur Niharika ko bulaan chali gayi.thodi hee der me Niharika waha maujood thee par Sulocana usake saath nahi aayi thee........ Niharika Sr.Ins. ke saamane waale sofe par baith jaati hai ............
Niharika :-“ jee Ins. Sahab ! puhhiye , aapako kyaa puchhanaa hai ?”

Sr.Ins. :-“kal job he kuch huaa thaa vo aap hume tafseel se bataie plss............................................................................................................ ”
Niharika :-“ jee! kal raat hum...... mera matlab hai ki Mai, Rohit ji aur Bhushan ghuman firane ke baad us
restaurant me khaanaa khaane gaye the aura hi us aadami ne mujhe kisi aur ladaki ke dhokhe me parshaan karane laga.......................................... mere baar aur Rohit ke baar-2 samjhaane par bhee vo maan nahi raha thaa aur
apani hee baat par adaa huaa thaa....... usaki baate aisee thee jo Rohit ji ko kaafi buri lagi, aur usi ki vajah
se tang aakar Rohit ne us sirf us aadami kaa gala pakad kar use dhamakaa diaa thaa........................................................................................................ par vo sirf ek
vakti reaction thaa......... nothing else.”

Rai sahab Niharika ko itani tasalli se baat karate dekh kar kaafi prabhawit hue. Vo is samay ek manjee huyi vakel ki tarah jo apane client ke bhale ki baat soch kar hee saari statement data hai, baat kar rahi thee Rohit ki baat bhe batayi aur usakee harkat ko ek genuine reaction bhee batayaa. Sr.Ins. apani
chaay pee chukaa thaa aur usako filhaal aur kuchh soojh bhe nahi raha thaa pa fir bhee usane chalan se pahale Rohit ki raat bhar ki activity ke baare me pooch hee liyaa. Jisake jawaab me Rai sahab ne saare ghar ke naukaro se bhee tasallee kar lene ko kah kar unhe chup karawaa diyaa. Sr.Ins. ko ab us ghar me rukane kaa koyi faayadaa najar nahi aa raha thaa usane jarurat padane par fir aane ki baat kah kar apan saathiyo ke saath vaapas chala gaya.
Rai sahab ne apani wheel chair ko ghumaa kar Rohit k kamare ki taraf jaane lage, ab vo apane bhai ko khud dekhanaa chahate the. Rohit apane kamare me soya huaa thaa. Rohit bed pa ulataa yaani pet ke bal soya pada thaa. Rai sahab ke uthaane par vo apani aankhe malataa huaa uth gaya. Usako dekh kar Rai sahab bhauchakke se rah gaye. Rohit ki shirt jo ki vo kal raat baahar jaate samay se hee pahanaa thaa par laal-laal dhabbe lage hue the jo ki saaf pata hal raha thaa ki khoon ke siwaa kuchh bhee nahi hai. Rai sahab jaldi se khud ko sambaalate hue apani whel chair ko kamare ke darwaje ki taraf le jaate hai aur usako band ar dete hain. Kamare me lage Intercom se unhone Sulochana ko phone karake jald se Rohit ke kamare me bulaa liyaa. Phone par Rai sahab ki badhawaasi ko sun kar Sulochana bhee turant wahaa

pahuch gayi. Rohit ko dekkar Usakaa haal bhee Rai sahab ke jaisaa hee ho gaya. Usaki kuch samajh me nai aa raha thaa ki ye sab kyaa hai aur kyo hai?

Rohit jo abhee tak apani aankh mal raha thaa........... vo bhee apane bhai-bhabhi ko aisaa bhauchakka hota
dekh kar bhramit ho gaya thaa. Usaki kuchh samajh me nahi aa raha thaa ki un dono ko huaa kyaa thaa........ kisi bhole bachche ki tarah vo aankhe faade-2 apane bhai bhabhi ko dekhe jaa raha thaa...........
Rai sahab ne apani wheel chair ko aage badha kar apane bhai ke haath thaam liye. Rohit ko Rai sahab ke haatho me ek kampan sa mhsoos ho raha thaa.

Rohit :-“kyaa huaa bhaiyya! Aap dono itane pareshaan kyo dikh rahe hain ........ (fi kuch soch kar)....................................................................................................... meri
Manasi kaha hai..... vo theek to hai naa?..... (suochana ki taraf dekhataa huaa)................................................................................................. Bhabhi! Aap boliye kyaa
huaa hai ........ sab theek to hai naa....... (fir apane bed se uthataa huaa)........................................................................................................ mai Manasi ko dekhane jaa raha
hu..... vo theek to hai naa.... ”

Usako uthata dekh kar Sulochana ne aage bad kar usako rok liyaa aur usao kamare me lage AAINE (mirror) ki taraf le jaati hai aur use usakee kamej par lag dhabbo ko dikhaati hai. Rohit bhee un dhabbo ko dekh kar hairaan ho gaya usaki kuch samajh me nai aa raha thaa.

Rohit :-“ (bhole pan se ) kal raat khaanaa khaate hue to humaaree kameej par kuch bhee nahi laga thaa.....
raat me guitar bajaate hue hum kab so gaye hme pata bh nahi laga.......................................................................................................... fir ye sab sauce (chatani) kaha se
lag gayi......... hum abhee isako change karake aate hain.”

Aur vo apani us kameej ko utaar kar ek T-shirt pahan letaa hai.................................................................................................... khoon lagee dhabbo waali kameej
jinhe vo sauce samajh raha thaa ko saaf karane ke liye usane bathroom me dhulane ke liye rakhane laga tab Sulochana ne us kamej ko apane haath me uthaa liyaa. Rohit ke puchhane par usane vo kameej apani nigaraani me dhulwaane ki baat kah kar usak samajhaa diyaa............................................................................................... Rohit ab kamare se baahar nikal kar
apani Manasi se milana chah raha thaa par Rai sahab ne usako yahi bulawaane ki baat kah kar shaant kar diyaa. Thodi hee der me Niharika ko bhe us kamare me bulawaa liyaa gaya aur bulaane ke liye bhala Bhushan se achchhaa insaan us ghar me aur kaun thaa. Thodi hee der me kamare me Bhushan aur Niharika bhee maujood the. Rai sahab aur Sulochana ko samajh me nahi aa raha thaa ki khoon ke dhabbo waali baat kaha se shuru ki jaaye............


Un dono ko asmanjas me dekh kar Niharika aur Bhushan ne ek dusare ko dekhaa aur kuchh naa samajh me aane jaisa bhaw apane cheharo par late hue apane-2 kandhe uchaka diye. Fir Sulochana ne Rohit ko us kamare se bahar le jaane kaa soch kar usako apane peeche aane ko kaha . Rohit ne karan puchhaa to “koyi cheej dikhanee hai” aisaa bol kar usako apane saath bahar le gayi. Cheej dikhaane ka to sirf bahana bhar thaa asaliyat me to vo Rai sahab ko maukaa de kar jaa rahi thee taaki kameej par khooni dhabbo waali baat vo Niharika aur Bhushan ko bata sake.

Sulochana aur Rohit ke kamare se bahar jaane ke baad ............
Rai sahab :-“(ek saans chhodate hue)...... naa jaane ye kya aur kyo ho raha hai humaare ghar me......................................................................................................... (fir
kameej par dhabbo waali baat bata kar)...... ye dhabbe jarur khoon ke he hain..................................................................................................... hume pura yakeen hai
..... par vo aaye kaha se ye samajh me nahi aa raha hai..”
Kameej waali baat sun kar Niharika aur Bhushan ...dono ke hee hosh ude hue lag rahe the......
Bhushan :-“ kal saari raat to chhote bhaiyyaa ji aapan tuntunawaa baajaat raahen............................................................................................. takreeban dedh-duyi

baje (1:30 or 2’o clock ) tak ta hum hiyaa kamaraa me baith kar unakaa sunat raahe fir subah jaldi uthe khaatir hum aapan kamaraa me soye chalaa gaye....................................................................................... tuntunawaa baajat samay chhote bhaiyyaa ji ek dum
shaant mudraa me baithaa raahen .... fir kaise aur kab unakaa kapadaa par ee dhabbaa laag sakat hai............................................................................................................ ”
Rai sahab :-“yahi to nahi samajh me aa raha hai Bhushan ! ki usake kapade par ye dhabbaa kaise aa gaya
.......vo kamare se kahi gaya nahi usake kamare me koyi aaya nahi ..fir kaha se ye dhabba lag gaya ?”

Ye baat ho hee rahi thee ki Sulochana waha aa pahuchi...... usake chehare par thodi se ghabaraahat najar
aa rahi thee...... usako dekh kar Rai sahab ne usaki ghabarahat ki vajah poochhee .....

Sulochana :-“vo Dsp Bhaarat aaya hai ...... aur aap sabase milana chaah raha hai........................................................................................................ naa jaane kyo par
mujhe iss baar kisi unhoni ki aashankaa ho rahi hai.... ”

Rai sahab ne apanee wheel chair ko Sulochana ke paas le jaate hue usake haath ko apane haath me pakad kar usako chintaa naa karane ko bola aur Bhushan ko apani wheel chair ko living room me Dsp ke paas le jaane ko kaha Niharika bhee unake pechh-2 living room ki taraf chal hee dee thee ki Rai sahab ko
ekdum se Rohit kaa dhyaan aaya............. Sulochana se usake baare me poochane par Sulochana ne ek
mmadhur muskaan ke saath batayaa ki usane Rohit ko kuchh gahane dkhaaye hain jiname se vo apani Manasi ke liye kuchh pasand kar raha hai ye baat sun kar Rai sahab bina muskuraaye nahi rah paye
aur Niharika ke gaalo ki laali bhee ab dekhane laayak ho rahi thee. fir sab le sab living room ki tafa badh chale ...........

Living room me Bhaarat ek sofe par baithaa koyi magazine padh raha thaa, aaj vo akelaa aur saadi vardi me aaya thaa. Rai sahab ko dekh kar vo apani jagah se uth kar khada ho gaya. Rai sahab se haath milaata hue usane Niharika aur Bhushan par ek bharpoor najar daali.........

Bhaarat :-“ (bhushan aur Niharika mukhatib hote hue) kal aap log khoob ghoome fire the shahar me aur fir us bechaare ko aisee bad duaa dekar chale aaye ki bechaaraa aaj ka suraj bhee nahi dekh
paayaa. ”
Bhushan:-“ hum kauno bad-duaa naahi dihe rahen...... oo khude aay kar rishtedaari jhaadat rahaa.........
bas kaa chhotake bhaiyyaa ji ne okaa (usako)jhaad dihaa..... ab baad me oo mar gawaa yaa kauno maar
gawa to emme (isame) ... humare bhaiyyaa ji yaa humaar sabhe kaa kaun kasoor ‘Darogaa babu’............................................................................................................ ”

Bhaarat :-“ (darogaa babu sun kar chidhata huaa..Rai shab se).................................................................................................. lagataa hai aapake yaha sab ke sab
Vakeel hain ...... ghar kaa naukar bhee logical baate kartaa hai..................................................................................................... khair aapaki jaan kaari ke liye bata du
....... mai har kisi katl kee jaanch-padtaal to karataa nahi hu par humaare expert ne hume ye batayaa hai ki ye katl bhee theek usi andaaj me huaa hai jis andaaj se Kunda daas ka katl huaa thaa........................................................................................... lagbhag sau-
sawaa sau (100-125) vaar chaaku ke kiye gaye the is aadami ke upar bhee ....... aur ek baat........................................................................................................... ye aadami
Kundan daas ka property dealer thaa. Kundan daas jo buildings banaataa thaa usaki marketing ke liye ye aadami ki firm hee jimmedaar hoti thee....... (fir Niharika ki taraf dekhate hue).................................................................................................... kyo MANASI ji !
aapaka kyaa kahanaa hai is baare me?”

Bhaarat ke muh se khud ke liye ‘Manasi’ sun kar Niharika ke saath-2 baaki sab bhee chaun gaye.......................................................................................................... un
sabakaa reaction dekh kar Bhaarat ne muskurate hue ....
Bhaarat :-“kyaa huaa! Maine koyi galat baat bol dee kyaa ? is ghar me aapako isi naam se jaane jaataa hai naa NI-HA-RI-KA ji..................................... ”
vo ek-2 aksharo(letters) ko alag-2 karake un par jor detaa huaa bola.
Rai sahab :-“aap kahanaa kyaa chahate hai Dsp sahab ? humaaree kuch samajh me nahi aaya...... saaf-2

aur khul kar kahiye.... ”
Bhaarat :-“samajh me to meri kuchh nahi aa raha hai Rai sahab! Ek katl train me huaa....................................................................................................... jaha kaatil
badi berahami se inake saamane (niharika ki taraf ishara karata huaa)......................................................................................................... kisi ek shareef shaharee ka katl
karake chalaa jaata hai...... aur inhe kuchh bhee nahi kahataa........................................................................................................ aur baad me inaki khair khabar lene ke
liye iss ghar me chakkar lagaane lagaa...... aapakaa dimaagi beemaar BHAI inako Manasi ke naam se
pehchaanataa hai (rai sahab kee hairani dekhate hue)... ab aise mat hairaan hoiye Rai sahab ! hum police
waale utane bewakoof nahi hote jitana aap humlogo ko samajh rahe hai.............................................................................................. humaaree bhee apani-2 source
hoti hai har khabar ko jaan’ne ki....... (fir kuchh socahata hua)........................................................................................................ haa ! to mai kah raha thaa ki aapakaa
bhai jo zehani taur par beemaar hai vo inhe Manasi ke rop me pehchantaa hai........................................................................................................ aur kal raat vo aadami
ab jisaki body murdaghar me padi hai, ne bhee inhe Manasi ke roop me pehchaanaa to bechaaraa aaj kaa suraj bhee nahi dekh paaya aur theek usi tarah berahami se maaraa gaya jis tarah se train me Kundan daas maara gaya thaa. Ab aap bataaiye ki mai kyaa samajhu in sab baato se.............................................................................................. Manasi aur Niharika me
kuchh to gadbadi wala rishtaa hai...... ”
Apani baat puri karake vo baari-2 sabako dekhane laga par lagbhag sabhee ke chehare par bechaini aur pareshaani ke siwaa kuch nahi dikh raha thaa. Fir Niharika ne apani khaamoshi todate hue .......
Niharika :-“dsp sahab ! kyaa aapako lagataa hai ki mai hee Manasi hu......................................................................................................... agr aisa hai to aap mere shahar
yaa mere ghar jaakar mere baare me pooch sakate hain..... aapako saari sachchaayi ka pata lag
jaayegaa...... ”

Bhaarat :-“aapake baare me to humane bina aapaki raay-shumaari ke hee pata kar liyaa thaa devi ji.....
aapake ghar tak aur aas pados se bhee hume aapake baare me koyi galat baat to nahi sunayi dee hai.”

Niharika :-“ (chintit hote hue).... aap log mere ghar kab gaye... aur mere ghar me kyaa batayaa aap logo ne
.......(gusse se )... sharam nahi aayi aapako... pahale se hee pareshaan un logo ko aap aur pareshaan karane
chale gaye ....... (kuchh roti huyi)..... bechaari meri maa, ye sab baate sun kar kitani pareshaan ho gayi
hongee......(fir use kuchh yaad aata hai)...... magar meri maa ne mujhe kuchh bhee nahi batayaa aap logo
kee pooch taachh ke baare.......... kahi aap logo ne unhe koyi dhamaki to nahi de dee hai ki mujhe ye sab
baate naa bataayi jaaye.... ”

Apani baat khatm hote-2 vo gusse aur pareshaani se haanfane lagati hai.........
Bhaarat :-“aapane jitanaa hum Police waalo ko jaahil aur beparwaah samajh rakha hai..................................................................................................... utane hum
nahi hai devi ji.... ‘ye saari tehakikaat aapake employer ki taraf se aapake good character certificate ko
paane ke liye ki jaa rahi hai’ aisaa humane aapaki Mata ji ko aur aapake padosiyo ko batayaa thaa........................................................................................................... to
aap apani Maa ki chintaa mat kariye abhee tak unhe humaari yaa humaare kisi bhee aadami ki taraf se koyi thes nahi pahuchee hai................................ par jis din mujhe aapake khilaaf koyi thos suboot mil jaayegaa tab ke liye
mai abhee se maafi mang letaa hu ...kyonki tab to shayad isakaa ki bhee vakt nahi milegaa............................................................................................................ ”

Itana kah kar vo fir se khaamosh ho jaata hai. 2 min tak khaamosh rah kar vo fir se bolana shuru karataa hai
Rai sahab :-“mujhe aapake bhai se milanaa hai...... agar aap nahi milane denge to mai majbooran adalati
aadesh lekar aaungaa jisame mujhe thodi see mehanat karane padegi........................................................................................................... to aap please mujhe apane bhai
se milane dijiye..... mai unase koyi jor jabardasti waale sawaal karake unake swasthaya ko haani nahi
pahuchaaungaa...meraa yakeen kijiye........ ye bhee jaan lijiye ki meraa aapake bhai se baat karanaa aapake
bhai ke hee hit me rahegaa..... to aap please... ”

Apani baat aadhe me he chhod kar Bhaarat, Rai sahab ki taraf dekhane lagataa hai.......

Rai sahab ne ek baar Sulochana ki taraf dekha, usane bhee Rai sahab ko maun swekriti de dee aur fir khud hee Rohit ko lene chali gayi............................................... kamare me ekdum khaamoshi chhaayi huyi thee. thodi hee der me
Sulochana vaha Rohit ko le kar aa pahuchee. Rohit ke chehare par kuchh confusion waale bhaaw the ......
vo kamare me aakar pahale Rai sahab aur fir seedhe apani Manasi ke paas jaa kar khada ho jata hai. Kamare ki khaamoshi ko Rai sahab todate hain.....

Rai sahab :-“chhote! Ye humaare bahut achchhe dost hain aur tumase kuchh baat karanaa chahate hain
.... jo bhee ye poochhe usakaa sahi-2 jawaab de denaa.. ”

Rohit ne kisi achchhe bachche ki tarah sahmati me sar ko hilaayaa aur Bhaarat ki taraf dekhane laga.....

Bhaarat :-“ (apane chehare par muskurahat late hue Rohit se) hello Rohit! Meraa naam Bhaarat hai .......
mai Police me kaam karataa hu aur aapake bade bhai kaa dost hu......... (fir apanaa gala saaf karake).....
kal jis aadami ki aapane pitaayi karee thee vo mere paas rote-2 aaya thaa aur aapaki shikayat kar raha thaa............ aapane kyo maara thaa usako ? ”

Rai sahab aur baaki sab Bhaarat ka dostaanaa ravaiyyaa dekh kar thode se khush hue the .........

Rohit :-“ (usaki taraf acharaj se dekhata huaa..) maine kab maaraa usako......................................................................................................... sirf usako dhakkaa dekar door
kara thaa ........ vo baar -2 meri Manasi ko pareshaan kar raha thaa........................................................................................................... to maine pahale to usako mana
kiyaa fir bhee vo nahi maanaa to maine bas usako gala pakad kar dhakkaa de diyaa..................................................................................................... (bura sa muh
banata huaa) itani se baat ke ke liye vo aapake paas chala aaya ... chhote bachche ki tarah shikayat lekar....
huhh.. ”

Bhaarat :-“are wahi to ! maine bhee jab sunaa ki vo tumhaaraa naam le raha hai to maine bhee usako daant diyaa ki , chal jhutthe ! humaaraa Rohit aisaa kar hee nahi sakataa............................................................................................... vaise usakao dhakelane ke
baad kyaa kiyaa thaa tumane......... vo jaha rukaa thaa vaha bhee gaye the kyaa ?”

Rai sahab ! Bhaarat ki chaturaayi dekh to rahe the par abhee unhone kuchh bolana uchit nahi samajhaa kyonki Bhaarat apane dostaane ravaiyye se Rohit ko bina kisi khaas pareshani ke sawaalaat
pooch raha thaa.

Raohit :-“ (kuchh khejhata saa) vaha kyo jaaungaa mai? Kyaa ye bhe bola thaa usane meri shikayat me.....
ajeeb aadami hai vo....... vaha se hum sedhe yahi chale aaye the..................................................................................................... usane humaaraa mood itanaa kharaab
kara diyaa thaa ki jis mash’hoor ‘Jawed ki firani’ ke liye mai Manasi ko vaha lekar gaya thaa vo to khaa bhee nahi paaye the.”

Fiarni kaa naam sunate hee Bhushan se raha nahi gaya ........

Bhushan :-“eehe (yahi) ek kaam to badhiyaa kihe raha oo aadamiyaa jaun aap logan ke firani naay khaay dihe.......okaa (usako) khakar to bekaar me aur dimaagawa kharab hoy jaat............................................................................................. (Bhaarat se mukhatib hote
hue)... darogaa babu ! aap oo aadami ke yah khaatir maaf kar diha (dijiye)............................................................................................................ ”

Bhushan ke muh se fir se apane liye darogaa (inspector) sun kar Bhaarat khisiyaa jaata hai magar fir ‘bhains kea age been bajaane jaisaa’ samajh kar usane Bhushan ko sirf ghoor kar chhod diyaa.

Bhaarat :-“nahi-2! Usane to nahi poochha thaa, ye to bas mai apani tasalli ke liye pooch raha thaa.........

pata nahi aur kyaa-2 jhooth bol detaa vo............ mujhe to pata hee thaa ki humaaraa Rohit humase kabhee

jhooth nahi bolegaa... ”



Rohit apani taareef sun kar khush ho gaya aur Niharika ki taraf acknowledgement ke liye dekhane laga. Usako aise apanee taraf dekhate hue Niharika ne bhee usaki taraf muskuraa kar apani sahamti jata dee. Idhar Bhaarat apane matlab ki koyi khaas baat na nikalate dekh kar Rai sahab ko Rohit ko bahar bhejane ke liye ishara karataa hai. Rai sahab ne Rohit ko apane kamare se koyi book laane ko kaha jisake liye pahale to Rohit ne Bhushan ki taraf dekhaa to Bhaarat ne abhee usako kuchh poochhane ki baat kah kar usi ko jaane ke liye kah diyaa. Rohit bahar jaate-2 Niharika ko bhee apane saath-2 le gaya...................................................................................................... jis par

Bhaarat ko koyi objection nahi thaa. Kamare ke baahar aate hee Rohit ne Niharika ke kandhe par haath rakh kar khushi se apane kareeb late hue usake kaano me .......



Rohit :-“ (khush hote hue) pata hai maine aaj us Police waale ko khoob ulloo banayaa................................................................................................... aadhee raat ko

jab sab so gaye the tab mai chupake se ghar se bahar nikal kar gaya thaa us aadami ke hotel room tak vo pahale usee restaurant me thaa fir maine waha se usaki taxi ke peechhe apani taxi lekar gaya

thaa..... apani car se hota to raaste me hee rok kar usako khub maarata par meri taxi wala dheelaa driver

thaa aur us aadami ko raaste me rok hee nahi pay...... fir usake hotel me usake peechhe-2 jaakar jaise hee

vo apane kamare me ghusaa........ maine us saale ki khoob pitaayee kari ....... bahut maaraa use maine.......................................................................................................... fir

jab vo girake maafi maangane laga tab maine use chhod diyaa aur samajhaa bhee diyaa ki aaj ke baad meri Manasi ko kabhee bhee pareshaan kiyaa to mai use aur maarungaa................................................................................................... ”

 

[Indian Princess]

Niharika par to ye sab sun kar jaise koyi bijali see giri , vo hairaani se Rohit ko ek tak dekhe jaa rahi thee aur Rohit thaa ki jaise is andaaj me khadaa thaa ki jaise usane koyi mahaan kaam kiyaa ho aur usako ab shaabaashi milane waali ho Niharika ko tu bhauchakkaa saa khada dekh kar Rohit use apane sath
lagbhag kheenchata saa apane saath apane kamare me le gaya aur kamare me pahuchate hee usase lipat gaya. Niharika ke liye ye harkat ek aur jhatake jaisee thee................................................................................................... vo abhee pichhale jhatake jo use Rohit ki
baate sun kar milaa thaa se ubari bhee nahi thee ki Rohit ka yu lipatanaa use ek aur jhatake se kam nahi laga. Rohit usako kas kar apane sharer ke najdeek se najdeek laanaa chahta thaa. Niharika usaki takat ke saamane kaafi kamjor pad rahi thee fir bhee usako Rohit ka yu apane se lipatanaa gawara nahi huaa.
Usane apanaa saaraa jor laga kar Rohit ko khud se alag dhakel diyaa aur aawesh me aakar Rohit ko ek karaaraa chaantaa jad diyaa.

CHaaaaaTaaaaaaakhhhhhh ki aawaaj se puraa kamaraa goonj gaya aur Rohit apane gaal ko pakad kar hatprabh saa khadaa rah gaya. Rohit ko chaanta maarane ke baad Niharika foot-2 kar rone lagi . usane apane dono haatho se apane chehare ko dhak liyaa thaa aur khub subak-2 kar rone lagi Rohit usako
rotaa dekh kar apane gaal par pade chaante ka dard bhool gaya aur Niharika ke paas jaakar usake sar par haath ferane laga.......


Udhar Niharika aur Rohit ke jaane ke baad Bhaarat ne fir se apani baat ka silsilaa shuru kiyaa ....

Bhaarat :-“ Rai sahab ! kyaa aap log in mohtarrimaa ko pahale se jaanate the ?”

Rai sahab :-“ Niharika ki baat kar rahe hai kyaa (Bhaarat ke haami bharane par) ..... nahi-2................................................................................................. humane to
apane yaha naukari ke liye news paper me ishti haar diya thaa................................................................................................... jisakee pratikriyaa me kayi logo ne
reply kiyaa thaa... humaari tamaam sharto ko maan’ne waale chand elogo me se ek ka selection huaa jo ki

ye Niharika hai......... aur us din jab humaare Driver ne railaway station se hume isake saath ghati
ghatanaa ke baare me bataayaa tab hume Niharika ke saath thodi suhanibhuti huyi...................................................................................................... baad me to is
ladaki ki saadagi ne yaha is ghar ke sabhi logo ka mann moh liyaa....... (kuchh der rukene ke baad).......
hume pata hai ki abhee bhee aapane Niharika ko apane shaque ke daayare se baahar nahi nikaalaa hai
.......par apane jaati anubhav se hum ye kah sakate hain ki ye ladaki bedaag hai....................................................................................................... isaki kahi se koyi bhee
bhumikaa nahi hai un katlo ke peeche jinakaa aap isako jimmedaar saabit karane ki koshish kar rahe hain
........ ”

Bhaarat :-“meri koyi jaati dushmani nahi hai Niharika se yaa kisi aur se........................................................................................................ aur rahaa sawaal Niharika
ko shaque ke daayare se hataane kaa...... to usake liye mai ek baat bata du aapako Rai sahab ! jab tak asali
kaatil pakadaa nahi jaataa mai khud ko bhee shaque ke daayare se baahar nahi nikaalataa............................................................................................... Niharika
ke baare me pooch taachh karane par aur to koyi khaas baat nahi pata lagi thee sivaay isake ki Niharika ne apane bachpan kaa kaafi bada hissaa RAMPUR me bitayaa thaa jaha ki usakaa nanihaal hai. Meri ek team abhee Rampur ke liye rawaanaa huyi hai kal raat me huyi hatyaa ke baare chhaanbeen karane
ke liye..... waha se jaise hee koyi aur bhee suraag milataa hai ........ mai aap logo ko fir se dikkat dungaa......
(fir bhushan ki taraf dkhate hue) tumhaari chot ab kaisi hai ?”

Bhushan :-“ (apane sar par haath ferata hua)...... patti to hum kalahi (kal hee) utaar dihe rahe........................................................................................................ par
abhai (abhi).... ghaame (dhoop) me jaat ke khopadiyaa me darad (dard) howat hai.................................................................................................. RAAM ji oo kale

naay ........ aap bas unakaa peechhaa chhod do ab ...... hum to kahat hai ki............................................................................................................ ”

Sulochana :-“fir shuru ho gaye tum ........ unhone tumhaaraa haal chaal pooch haa thaa bata diyaa naa
tumane ....... to bas ab apane muh ko vishraam do ”

Bhaarat :-“ (raahat ki saans lete hue) aapakaa bahut-2 dhanyawaad Sulochana ji jo aapane is shabdo ki TOP ko band kar diyaa...... isakaa sirf On button kaam karataa hai................................................................................................ Off ka switch to isame hai hee

Bhushan :-“ (chdhe hue swar me)..... hum kaa kauno pankhaa-vankhaa hai kaa jo humaraa switch
lagegaa.... jab sunnaa naahi hot tab humase poochhat kaahe ko...................................................................................................... Hum jaa rahe hai sahab hiyaa se
...humakaa aur bhee kaam hai.... ”

Ye baat bol kar Bhushan waha se chala jaataa hai..... Rai sahab usako jataa dekh kar muskuraate hain aur
........

Rai sahab :-“thodaa baatuni jarur hai par dil kaa sachchaa aur behad imaandaar hai ye, (Bhaarat se mukhatib hote hue)...................................... aap abhee tak Niharika ke peechee hee kyo pade hue hain jabaki ye to sabit huyi
baat hai ki us kale kapade waale aadami ka astitva hai .......fir aap kyo nahi maan rahe hain? ”

Bhaarat :-“ kyonki is ghar ke baahar kahi bhee us kale kapade waale ka koyi astitva humaare saamane nahi aaya hai.... yaha tak ki aapake naukar ki chot bhee maamuli see hai............................................................................................. itani berahami se 2-2 katl
karane waalaa bhala isake sar par dheere se kyo maaregaa ”

Rai sahab aur Sulochana ye baat sun kar gahari soch me doob jaate hain
........
Apane sar par Rohit ke haath kaa sparsh paakar Niharika jo ab tak apane dono haatho se apanaa cheharaa chhipaaye roye jaa rahi thee ne apane haatho ko neeche karake Rohit ki taraf dekhaa. Rohit kee aankho me glani aur pschaataap dono ke mile jule bhaaw dikh rahe the. Usakee aankho me aise bhaaw dekh kar Niharika ka komal dil pighal gayaa aur use turant Rohit ki mansik aswasthataa kaa khyaal aayaa. Ye khyaal aate hee ab use apane dwaaraa maare gaye chaante par pachhtaawaa ho raha thaa.
Usane jab Rohit ki taraf dekhate hue sorry bola tab Rohit ne usake aansoo pochhate hue...................................................................................................... khud ki
harkat par sorry bola aur is baar vo khud hee ro padaa............................................................................................... Niharika ko usaka rona behad khal gaya
...usane aage badhkar Rohit ko apane gale se laga liyaa.


Niharika ke gale lagaate hee Rohit ne use khoob kas kar apane aalingan paash me chipaka saa liyaa. Iss baar Niharika ko ye aalingan khal nahi raha thaa................................ jaha pahale waale aalingan me use ek junoon
mehsoos ho raha thaa wahi is baar ke aalingan me use ek romaanchak anubhuti mehsoos ho rahi thee. sach baat to ye hai ki koyi bhee ladaki ya naari apane saath jabardasti pasand nahi karati.

Rohit :-“ (subakate hue)....... mujhase naaraj hokar tum mujhe chhod ke to nahi jaaogi naa........................................................................................................ mai mar
jaaungaa tumhaare bina........ ”

Niharika :-“ mai kahi nahi jaaungi tumhe chhod kar... par mere saath is tarah se kabhi pesh nahi aaoge is
baat kaa bhee vaadaa karo.... ”

Rohit :-“maine kyaa kiyaa thaa ........ (vo abhi bhi subak raha thaa)......................................................................................................... sirf tumhe gale se hee ti lagaayaa
thaa , jaise humeshaa lagaataa thaa ..... pahale ki tarah.... fir tum is baar naaraaj kyo ho gayi ? ”

Niharika :-“pahale ki baat aur thee aura b ki baat kuchh aur hai..................................................................................................... abhee mai yaha tumhaare ghar me hu
..... har samay koyi na koyi aasa paas hota hai...... tumhe samajh me kyo nahi aata ki mujhe tumhare saath
aise lipataa-chipati karate dekh kar tumhare bhaiyyaa bhaabhee kyaa sochenge............................................................................................................ ”

Rohit :-“ (kuchh samajhane jaise andaaj me apane aansoo pochhata huaa)........................................................................................................ haa mujhe iss baat kaa to
dhyaan hee nahi raha........ mai bhee naa ekdum pagal hee hu kuchh bhee sochataa nahi hu bas kar
baithata hu..... tumane ekdum theek kiyaa..... aaindaa bhee jab mai kuchh aisaa vaisaa karu tab mujhe aise
hee lagaa denaa.. ”

Ye baat Rohit ne aise bhole pan se kahi ki Niharika apani muskurahat rok nahi paayi............................................................................................................ is baar usaki
muskurahat me Rohit ne bhee saath diyaa. Aur dono fir se aalingan baddh ho gaye. Dheere -2 dono hee is chamatkaari aalingan ke ehsaas me khone lage. Niharika ke jawaan aur kunwaare jism ki khushbu pahale se hee Manasi ke pyaar me paagal Rohit ke upar ek nashe jaisaa asar kar rahee thee wahi Niharika bhee pahali baar khud apani ichchhaa se kisi nau-yuwak ke aalingan me aur vo bhee ‘vo’ jo khud ko pasand aane laga ho ke aagosh me khud ko madhoshi ki taraf bahati huyi si mehsoos kar rahi thee....................................................................................................... ek dusare ki
saanso ke saath dono ab ek dusare ki dhadkano ko apane kaano se sun sakate the. Saanse jaha har kshan lambee hoti jaa rahi thee wahi dhadkano ne bhee apani gati ko atyant tej kar diyaa thaa. Aise maahaul me jab Rohit ko apane bheetar ubal rahe aawesho par kaabu panaa mushkil huaa tab usane khud ko aalingan se mukt karate hue Niharika ke chehare ki taraf dekhaa...................................................................................................... vo abhee bhee us aalingan ke sukhad ehsaas
se baahar nahi nikal paayi thee aur apani ukhadi saanso ke saath apani aankh band kiye hue khule hontho ke saath Rohit ko nimantrit karati huyi see prateet ho rahi thee.

Rohit ne bhee un larajate hontho ke nimantran ko jyada der tak thukaranaa uchit naa samajhate hue apane kaanpate hontho ko apani Manasi ke garam aur larajate honth par rkh diyaa......................................................................................... hontho kaa
milanaa thaa ki bassssssssssss......... jaise kuchh der ke liye dono ki hee saanse tham gayi ho. Niharika ko
apane pure shareer me ek romaanchkaari lehar daudati huyi see mehsoos huyi jo usake reedh (spine) se kabhi niche se upar to kabhi upar se neeche daudati prateet huyi. Dono ne aahistaa aahistaa ek duje ke ki saanso ko peenaa shuru kar diyaa. Chipake huye labo ne kab ek dusare ko chhosanaa shuru kar diyaa, isakaa to ehsaas bhee unake sunn pa chuke zehan ko naa huaa...................................................................................................... aur vo dono madhoshi ki har seemaa ko
paar karate hue iss alaukik chumban me samaate chale gaye...........

Idhar Bhaarat aur Rai dampatti ke beech mantrana ka daur chalu thaa.

Bhaarat :-“kal raat kaafi der tak vo Rampur wala business man us restaurant me kisi kaa intjaar karataa raha ...... aaj kal Raj nagar ka tourist season hone ki vajah se bhee restaurant der raat tak chalate hain ......
vo adami us restaurant se nikalane waala aakhiri aadami thaa......................................................................................................... jab vo baahar nikalaa tab tak shayad
usane kaafi pee lee thee jisaki vajah se usaki chaal bhee ladkhada rahi thee. subah news paper me katl ki khabar padh ke restaurant ke manager khud raat waali ghatanaa (rohit se haathaa-paayi) ki khabar police ko dee thee hotel ke gate keeper ne bhee iss baat ki pushti kari thee ki jab vo aadami hotel pahuchaa
thaa tab vo kaafi nashe me thaa......... vaise to humane CCTV ki footage maang lee hai, ab dekhana hai ki
kal raat waha kaun-2 aaya thaa........ ummeed karataa hu ki aapaki koyi jaani pehchaani shakl hume waha
naa dekhane ko mile...... ”
ye baat bol kar Bhaarat apane chehare par bina koyi bhaaw laaye un dono ko baari-2 dekhane laga. Sulochana jo itanee der se khamoshi ke saath saari baat sun rahi thee......................................................................................... apana pahalu badale hue
........

Sulochana :-“ dsp sahab! Maine itani der se aapaki saari baate suni...................................................................................................... kyaa aap bata sakate hain ki
aapane abhee tak Kundan daas ke baare me kyaa pata lagaayaa hai?............................................................................................................ ”

Bhaarat :-“jaise ki har builder ke baare kuchh galat kuchh sahi baate suna’ne ko milati hain vaise hee hmaare Kundan daas ji bhee koyi apwaad nahi siddh hue hain........................................................................................... agar unhone kayi dharmik ya
saamajik kaamo me haath bataaya thaa to kayi asaamaajik kaarya jo unhone kaanoon ko taak par rakh kar kiye the , ki bhee shikayat mili thee.............................. jaise chand cases to aap hee ki sarparasti me chalane waale
NGOs ne hee daayar kar rakhe hain........ dara dhamakaa kar jameen hadapane kaa aur kayi jungalo ki
bhee jameen ko unhone apane construction projects me istemaal kiyaa hai.......................................................................................................... jin par abhee bhee
mukadame baaji ka daur jaari hai..... ”

Sulochana :-“kahane kaa matlab yahi hai naa ki vo ek aam shahari to nahi hee the kam se kam............................................................................................................ ”

Bhaarat :-“jee haa ! aam to nahi the par aise koyi jarayam peshaa bhee nahi the jo apani jeb me chaaku rakh kar chale............................... agar usaki jeb se chaku ki jagah revolver ya pistol bhee nikalataa to mai ye baat hajam
kar letaa par ye ‘CHAAKU’ humeshaa mere haajame ke aage atak jaataa hai............................................................................................................ ”

Rai sahab :-“ vo chaaku ittefakan bhee to usaki jeb me rah sakataa hai....................................................................................................... jaise ki shayad us kale kapade
waale aadami se darr ki vajah se ‘kuchh aur naa sahi to ye hee sahi’ jaisee soch ke saath Kundan daas ne rakhaa hogaa kyonki Niharika ki baato se ye bhee to pata lagataa hai ki kale kapade waale ne chaahe
apane pure chehare ko dhak rakhaa ho par Kundan daas ne to use dekhate hee pehchaan liyaa thaa............................................................................................................ ”

Bhaarat :-“ji! gustaakhi ke kshama chahtaa hu par mujhe aapaki Niharika ji aur unaki kisi baat par abhee tak to yakeen hai nahi..................................................... to bhala iss baat par mai kaise karungaa ki kale kapade waale ko Kundan

daas ne pehchaan liyaa thaa...... ”



Sulochana :-“ (kuchh ukhade hue swar me) jab aapane soch hee rakhaa hai ki us maasoom ko fansaa kar hee maanege tab koyi aapako kuchh bhee nahi samajhaa sakataa.......................................................................................... Bhagwaan se aapako sadbuddhi dene

ki praarthana awashya karungi”



Kamare me chaay ke saath ghusata bhushan ne ye aakhiri baat sun li thee.....



Bhushan:-“ chaay pijiye Daarogaa babu! Aur apane dimaag me thodaa tarawat daal ke humari bahin ji ke baare me saaf dimaag se vichaar kijiyegaa........aur ek baat saaf saaf sun lijiye DA-RO-GAA babu ......

Niharika ji humaare Chhote bhaiyyaa ji ke ilaaj me bahut badaa kirdaar adaa kar rahi hain..................................................................................................... inake

saath kuchh bhee galat kiyaa to aap samajh lijiyegaa ki mai bahut kuchh gadbad kar sakataa hu............................................................................................................ ”



Bhushan ne ye baat kuchh aise tewar me kahi thee ki Bhaarat to Bhaarat, Rai dampatti bhee usakaa muh dekhate rah gaye. Is samay Bhushan ke chehare par koyi bewkoofi , koyi nasamjhi najar nahi aa rahi thee....... bas gusse se usakaa muh tam-tama raha thaa. Par Bhaarat bhee koyi airaa gairaa to thaa nahi...

dsp ki post ko sushobhit karataa ek kaabil aur kadak officer thaa . use ek mamuli naukar ke dwaara mili is chhipi huyi dhamaki ne ekdum upset kar diyaa thaa.

So budhe mein abhi bhi kuch jawani baaki hai...

Lagta hai isne apne pure family members ke naam apne naam se jod liya hai.

Kamal aaj kal jise dekho apni hi kahani sunane lag jate hai.. chahe samne wala sunna chahe ya na chahe par isse inlogo ko koi fark nahi padta

are re yeh sakti kapur kaha se aa gaya
are bachhi ki jaan loge kya... ushe saans to lene do... aate hi tut pade hawasi kahi ka
Mehmaano ko bade kamal ki welcome karte hain yeh rai sahab ke gharwale..
ek woh budha phone mein muwahh muwahh ab yeh nau Jawan.. yeh tut hi pada bechari ki upor... lagta hai Aashiqq banaya apne dekhke aaya hai

Hmm.... kahani ke kirdaar apne role bakhubi nibha rahe hai par ek niharika ko chhod, baaki sab log kuch ajib kuch rahashyamay prakriti ke hai... weirdo...
dhikhaya kuch aur jaa raha hai aur chupaya kuch aur....
I think kahani ki center point niharika hi hai... aur usike aas pass saari ghatnaye ghatit hoti rahegi... jaise yeh us kaale kapde wale ne joh kiya uske sath...
. koun ho sakta hai woh joh aaj hi aayi huyi niharika sath yeh sab kar raha hai...
