Mumbai : Amidst all the recent surge of rising unemployment in India, the youth of India has now found various ways to cope with this problem.
It seems Akash Engineerwala, a guy from Bandra has found a unique way to cope up with this so called issue of 'unemployment'. Yesterday Akash set up an illegal slum near his college with the help of his friends Ajay and Navin to get the benefits of 'Rajiv Awas Yojana' whose one of the primary objectives is to improve and provide housing, basic civic infrastructure and social amenities in intervened slums.

"I am very happy today. Finally I'll have a house of my own, under the 'Rajiv Awas Yojana'. I was already tired of taunts like "Nalayak, kya fayada hua engineering karke, na toh tujhe job hai, na hi tera khud ka ghar, zindagi vyarth hai teri' and how my engineering degree is a waste, from my close relatives. So I decided I should do something about this. And here I'm. All prepared to take possession of my 'to be ready' house!*exclaims with joy*" said Akash to our news correspondent.

On being asked how did he come to know about 'Rajiv Awas Yojana', Akash replied, 
"Yesterday I was watching TV, admiring Sunny Leone in some advertisement*blushes*. Just as my eyes were glued to the television, the advert got over abruptly and then I saw this 'Rajiv Awas Yojana' thing. That moment was the best moment of my life. That moment was even better than the day when my college crush had smiled at me! *Navin interrupts* " She had smiled at the guy behind you, who is now her boyfriend"...*after a  momentary silence and some exchange of negative vibes among them,Akash starts speaking again* "Yeah, whatever. That moment I switched of the TV and went to the nearby shop to eat Mentos, which hellped me in thinking about this idea to bulid a slum near my college!!"

College authorities are unfazed about this and are making continous efforts to remove his slum from their campus. Our correspondent contacted the Principal of the college on this issue.
"This is totally an absurd thing to set up a slum in college campus. I know students love our college, but then this is wrong. If you fail to get placed, its your fault, our college has an excellent placement record. Look at the 'Pappu Xerox Center', Atul Vada Pav, Ankit Frankies'etc just outside our college. I can proudly say that they are my students! They visits our campus every year for placements!" excalimed Mr. Arun Gupta, the principal of the college. He also works as a the Chief Teacher at the nearby 'Sunshine Playgroup & Nursery'.

Meanwhile Akash and his friends have got full support of the local Congress MLA Altaf Bhai. Our representative contacted Altaf Bhai on this issue.
"Ye bandon ko apun ka pura support hai. Aisi faadu yojana ka laabh toh har kisi ko uthana chaiye. Apun bhi dekhtaye kis *abusive language not suitable for readers* mein itna dum  hai jo inki zhopdi ko haath laga ke dikhaye! Aise zhopdi khade karne wale sabhi college ke bantai ko apna fullto support hai" said Altaf Bhai.

With the rising unemployment in recent times, more such unemployed engineers, doctors, lawyers etc are already packing their things to set up slums nearby their colleges.

The Depression And Suicide Connundrum

Image
(Pic credits: www.thequotes.in) Since everyone is riding on the Justin Beiber wave, selling their kidneys and souls, dying to get the tickets to that elusive concert, I thought why not take this opportunity and talk about depression and killing oneself. Because that's what most people are going to do after the concert. "He killed himself. He must be a coward." We've often heard this phrase being uttered by many. People who didn't even know the person, judging the heck out the them, after their death. Maybe. Perhaps he is a coward. Or perhaps he is a brave heart. It's all a matter of perspective. There's a general societal notion that one who kills himself is a coward. One who's timid and doesn't know how to fightback. But is it really so? Do folks who kill themselves consider themselves as cowards and losers? Is suicide really an act of faint-heartedness? There are no specific answers to this question. But I often ask myself, why is it t

The Last Interview

[The following article is a work of fiction made from the fragments of author's weird and demented imagination. It does not bear any resemblance to reality. If so, it's purely accidental. Thank you!] I was sitting in the waiting room. There were four individuals besides me, waiting for their turn. I glanced over to see their faces. It reeked of nervousness, I could tell that easily. Adjusting their neck ties and regularly wiping off their faces with the handkerchief. I very well remember being in that position. A few months back, I guess. I had lost count after 47. The lady behind the counter called my name. This is it. I stood up and went inside. A man greeted me with a smug smile on his face. A smile that could even put Mona Lisa in a fix. I went ahead and greeted him. "Good morning, Sir!" "Oh good morning Mr. Harry! Please take a seat!" I pulled the chair and sat on it. All that expensive cushioning and still it didn't feel comfortable. I mad

The Irony Of War And Peace

Peace. Such a wonderful word. Webster's dictionary defines peace as, "a state in which there is no war or fighting" Humanity has been striving for eternal peace since eons! And yes, the struggle is real indeed. A few days back, a harrowing video surfaced on the internet. It was about this 5 year old little Syrian kid, Omran Daqneesh, who was rescued from the rubble, after an airstrike at Aleppo. This horrific video sent shivers down my spine and every time I look at that boy's shocked and innocent face, I struggle to fight that lump in my throat. The pathetic state of humanity right now. But does it even matter to us? Nope. It doesn't. Because we don't live in Syria. A few more months and everyone will soon forget about Omran. Just like we forgot Alan Kurdi. Yes, the iconic kid in the picture, whose corpse was swept ashore. I won't go about preaching how this is all fucking insane and how we should do something about it. Ranting won't chan
