CETIJAEN

CETIJAEN is a famous word among the people plying through Kolkata on the public bus number 71. If you could not understand what I meant to say, let me explain it to you in details.
If you are a regular passenger in 71, you might know it.

On 26-11-2006, Sunday at 9.30 pm I was returning from City Centre with my friend Gaurav in the bus number 71. As we were travelling by the bus, I saw that above the seats for the Senior Citizens in the bus, it was written in big block letters CETIJAEN. I showed it to Gaurav and as we both were smiling at such an innovative way in which the word CITIZEN was written.

To add the humour, I told that it looked as if the man who wrote it might be well conversed in some European language. The man next to me added that "As the bus plys near city centre, hence to add its effect, the name has been deliberately transformed to CETIJAEN."

God knows what, but we all agreed that what an innovative way of writing English it was. Ha Ha.

I've broken my own record !

I have broken my own record. I have watched 3 films in a week in a cinema hall or theatre . Yes this is a record for me! My last record was one film in a week. But this week (from 19-11-2006 till 25-11-2006) I have broken my own record.

Let me list the films I had seen: -

19-11-2006 - Don - The Film - starring SRK (at Paradise)
20-11-2006 - Lagey Raho Munnabhai - the greatest comedy of 2006 (at Chaplin)
23-11-2006 - Casino Royale - the 2006 James Bond film (at Globe)

Isn't it a great acheivement for someone who saw only 2 films in the year 2005 in cinema hall and only these 3 films (mentioned above) in the year 2006.

Why did I leave my last Job?

There was a reason why I left my last job. But before that I should mention the details you need to know about me.

Company where I worked: WDC, Sector V, Kolkata
I worked there for: 1 and 1/2 years
Working as a: Lotus Notes Application Developer.
Salary: very low
Reason for leaving:
1. I had my Part I MBA Exams at IISWBM, Kolkata in the middle of 2006 and so I had applied for leave from my office. My application for leave was rejected. So I had to deliberately resign from my job so that I can peacefully appear for my Exams.
2. Low salary
3. My boss in office suffered from an ego (inferiority complex) problem. He saw that I am a B.Tech as well as MBA and he is just a n ordinary graduate. This ate him up the whole day and I could not see him suffering. (read as I could not tolerate him)

Lets Start All Over Again

As you can see from my above post, I am blogging since November 2004. That means I had just passed my B.Tech then. This time was those BLACK DAYS OF MY LIFE, when I used to remain sad the whole time. Please dont ask me the reason. I wont be able to tell you.

GOD'S FINGER TOUCHED HIM AND HE SLEPT

"GOD'S FINGER TOUCHED HIM AND HE SLEPT"

My grandfather, Sri Sanat Kumar Chattoraj is no more with us. He left the world on 2.30am on Sunday the 10th of September, 2006. He was almost 90 years old. He left back 2 sons, 5 daughters and his wife Smt. Nirupama Chattoraj. The elder son is my daddy. So I am his elder grandson.

He breathed his last at B. R. Singh Hospital, Sealdah, Kolkata at Intensive Care Unit, where he was under ventilation, 7 days before his demise. He also had a catheter fitted to his body and he was made to eat through Ryles tube for the past 1 month.

Before being shifted to B. R. Singh Hospital, he was undergoing treatment in a private nursing home for the last 20 days at Calcutta Heart Clinic& Hospital at Salt lake City, Kolkata near tank no 12.

In fact, he was not well for the last one year mainly due to ageing and he had a cerebral attack one year ago. After that, he lost the power of recognition. He used to talk to himself the whole day and whole night. He lost his short term memory but still had his long term memeory intact. Thus he used to go on speaking, what was in his mind, from the past.

3 months ago, one day suddenly his health deteriorated and he was admitted to the nursing home. There he was treated, but his health never got better. It became worse day by day. He was shifted to home 1 month later but again after some days he was taken to the nursing home.

In one word he suffered a lot in the last 2 years. At last he got rid from all the sufferings.

SOMETHING ABOUT MY GRANDFATHER (DADU)

Sri Sanat Kumar Chattoraj was born in an orthodox Brahmin family in a small village nearAsansol in Samdi Colliery area in Burdwan district of West Bengal, in the year 1916 on29th day of Bengali month "Baishakh".

His fathers name was Sri Kumudeshwar Chattoraj. Dadu also has an elder brother who is still living in Burnpur town with is wife. His name is Purna Chandra Chattoraj. He has no son of his own but he adopted a son called Nitish.

Dadu had BA Degree in Bengali and a dual MA in Bengali and Sanskrit. His name is found in the list of Pandits in the holy book of Hindus called "Panjika" or "Paanji" inBengali. He was a learned man and a great philosopher.

He lost his father at the age of 3 and his elder brother was 7 at that time. His mother brought him up and dadu by his own carried out his studies at school. He did his schooling from Ethora High School, Ethora, a place 25 miles away from Samdi. Later he passed the School Final Examinations and did his Graduation from Burdwan University and his Post Graduation from Calcutta University.

His mother was very strict lady. Due to her strictness, dadu covered such a long way in his life. Later he joined as the Sanskrit Teacher in Deshbandhu Vidyalaya Boys School, Chittaranjan and after some years of tough life he was promoted to the post of the Principalin the same school.

He has a long list of successful students. Many are, Doctors, Engineers, Lawyers, Managers, Teachers, and so on. This is something to be felt proud of.

He had a tough life in bringing up his 2 sons and 5 daughters. I personally Salute such a noble man. I really feel proud to call such noble man my Grandfather.

He used to tell me "WE ARE BORN TO LEAD OTHERS AND NOT TO BE LEAD". In the last few years before his demise, he used to recite few lines of a poetry of Kabiguru Rabindranath Tagore.

It said in Bengali: -
"Udayer Pathe Suni Kaar Bani,
Bhoy Nai Ore Bhoy Nai,
Nish-shey-shey Pran,
Je Koribe Daan,
Khoy Nai Taar Khoy Nai".

"MAY GOD REST HIS SOUL IN PEACE UP THERE IN HEAVEN"

"DADU, WE ALL WILL MISS YOU, FOREVER".
