I told you about my maternal granps, no, Doc ? .. that ideologue congressiya banda.
Nana ki secularism was too much.. he'd always defend the islami mazhab.. ki "scientific hai" etc
chewtya, sorry granps.. but then he was witness to partition and sheltered some intellectual types and drove them to the station and prayed ki kuch ho naa jaye unka.. they were literally neighbours, uska best friend tha.
jo bhi bolo, yaar.. sad scene toh tha, boss.. this partition thing.
Goa rehta hu, akela bhi feel karta hu in this culture... kasam se, koi lahori mil jaye frequency ka banda, like Lull.. uss se zyada pategi.
Make of it what you want... aapko bhi, I suppose.. you travel to Cal or Madras or Sikkim or whatever.. ekdum alien feeling will come to you too.
I dont know racial hai, ki linguistic hai, kya hai.. some anthropological lafda is there for sure, but.
I suppose Kalkattey walas also feel same if in Dhaka or Barishaal

etc... ancestral memory or whatever, right ?
