Delhi Jats’ Meet Successful

I read on Jatland that Delhi Jat Meet was very successful, which is an achievement( considering most of the jats on jatland spend their time in bickering and back-biting). The event was organised by satinder goyat and Jyoti Kohar of Vreehi Food Academy. I think this is the same Jyoti, whom we called Rinku. She used to be a very loud and assertive girl. I hear she has two girls, hope they have got their mother’s traits. Rinku was very jolly and straightforward. In the photo, she is the one in Black salwar Kameez and Red dupatta.
Jats are a rare breed of humans. They are aggressive, assertive,straightforward, honest, yet they are intolerably behind times. Most of the jats take pride in their tribal ways and their attitude towards women is simply unacceptable. Yet I have found some gems in jats. One of them is my father. Other is my husband. Then there is Jitender hooda, my brother, Navin Gulia and there are many more whom I have never met or heard of. If Jats learn to respect women, they will be the best race on this planet.

Ganga Hostel, JNU

Ganga hostel is the first hostel that you come across when you enter JNU campus from Munirka’s side. I stayed in room no. 20 in ganga hostel for three years. It is an old hostel with leaking toilets and smelly bathrooms. I used to be very proud of my hostel and always bragged about it at home. But when I went to meet my friend at HAU ( Haryana Agricultural University) Hisar, all my illusions about my hostel being the best were shattered. The hostel where my friend was staying, had clean, airy rooms, with spacious bathrooms and the girls had the option to choose a single room. Girls didn’t have to pay any big fee for the hostel here. And I thought only I was the lucky one to live in a cost friendly hostel!
Anyways back to Ganga Hostel. I used to study for my exam in the hostel mess, because my room mate wasn’t very fond of studying and she would go to sleep early.
The famous Ganga Dhaba opens around 4.30 pm. They maily serve bread roll, samosa and tea, but now they have started dinner too. Ganga Dhaba has been witness to many a political transformations that JNU has undergone in the past few years. I would so love to visit ganga hostel. Its been ten years since I last went there.

Memories of JNU

When I started this blog about Delhi, the first thought that came across my mind was about JNU. Jawahar Lal University, is the one place which nurtured me into a better analyst and human being. You don’t go to an education institute with focus on these two things. Your aim is to get something out of the education system so that you are equipped to earn a decent living. But at JNU I learned that there are things more important. such as thinking about your country, the way it is being run today and the whole political conspiracy that you come across as a common man.
JNU taught me not to treat politics as a dirty word, but to understand it and participate in the political debate. There is so much I want to share about this marvelous institution which is often called the bastion of the left. But I will take your leave today.
