Amish Jaisinghani on his way to give his exams gave the bus conductor a slightly torn 50-rupee note, which resulted in an argument. At one of the stops, four bus conductors assaulted him twisting his left arm. He had to be immediately operated. He incurred an expenditure of Rs.80,000 which is yet to be reimbursed by MBBC. MBBC says they will issue a cheque as compensation. His father protested to Asst. Commissioner MBBC. Amish was ferried in a Sumo Jeep to the exam center to give his exams . His arm is still in a sling, as the two rods inserted in his left arm will be removed after 18 months. The conductor who created a scene in the bus has been suspended.

Hi Ank,

The circumstances from which these young boys and girls have come out a winner is laudable! It reminds me of the song "Dubnewale ko tinke ka sahara hi bahut, dil behel jaye phakt, itna ishaare hi bahut, itne par bhi aasmanwala gira de bijliyan, koi batlade dubta phir kya kare!!"

They just need a small push and they will make a stand for themselves in the society. Hope God is kind to them and does not shower more thunder and lightening to their already disturbed life.

Thanks Ank for appreciating this humble post.
