आप के ज़माने में बाप के ज़माने वाले मुद्दे ...

Aajkal TV par McDonald's ke 20 rupaye waale happy price menu ke bade ads aa rahe hain... jiske ant mein yehi kehte hain ke aapke zamaane mein baap ke zamaane waale daam.
Hansi aati hai mujhe sunkar... kyuki 20 rupaye mere Papa ke zamaane mein ek achchhi rakam thi. Pura khana mil jata tha 20 rupaye mein...

Badhti abaadi, ghatate shroto ne mehengaai badha di hai. Magar is vakya par sochte sochte mujhe vichar yeh aaya ke... jo mudde mere baap ke zamaane mein they, wo aaj bhi waise ke waise hai.
Sadak, paani, bijli... netaon ne inhi sab muddon par kasame khaayi... aur vote liya...
aaj bhi jab hum nikalte hain, sadak ki haalat dekhte hi banti hai. Mumbai ki sadako ka kya hoga, kuchh pata nahi. Pehle sadak banaate hain, phir khod daalte hain, kabhi bijli ki taar ke liye, kabhi phone ki.

Bijli ka jo haal hai, Mumbai mein to nahi magar Navi Mumbai mein, din mein kam-se-kam 3 ghante gayab rehti hai... na tv par koi picture pura dekh sakte hain, na net se trading kar sakte hain... bas ji, baithe raho.

Mere ilaake mein to wo haal hai ke taras aata hai... jab bijli wapas aati hai, to cable aur net nadarad, kyuki jaha routers lage hain, waha ki bijli gayi hoti hai....

Main Assam sthit chhote se sheher Bongaigaon se aati hu, jaha bachpan mein main inhi sab dikkaton ko dekh kar sochti thi, ke kabhi to wo din aayega, jab pure din ke liye mujhe bijli milegi.
Waha to logo ne na-ummeed hokar gharon mein inverters lagwa liye hain, aur mujhe ab khud ke liye bhi wahi upay sahi lagta hai.

Magar kuchh cheezien phir bhi hain, jo mere Papa ke liye nayi hain, jaise ke badhta Atankwaad, badhta vivaad, badhti sankhya mein talak, badhti jansankhya, ghatati ladkiyan, ghatati shuddhata, ghatati umra, badhti bimariyan....

Shaayad, aaj ke samay mein hum in sab samasyaon ka koi hal nikal paayein, taaki aane waale bachche yeh na kahe ke "Aap ke Zamaane mein Baap ke zamaane waale mudde ..."

Baki phir
