G-4 (Home,StudyRoom,Recreation Centre and Dharamshala for many)

Sitting in this lonely room of mine at XIM, my mind often flew back to the remniciences of my stay at G-4, this was our flat number while staying there in Bhilai completing my engineering. The place often haunt me whenever i miss my room-mates Nitesh, Manish and Vikas now the former two are out of india and the later is also ready to leave, Never thaught that one day we would be seperated by such a distance, but happy for their achievements that had led them there.

Nitesh being my childhood friend (langotia yaar) i was knowing them before i joined BIT, and came to know more about Manish and Vikas only after my first semester though our rooms were only few yards from each other. These two guys were really great in making there network be it with senior or our batchmates, they are really friend in true sense. I still remember the amount of effort that we have put in to get that flat, as it was one of the nearest to the college, on the first floor, in a posh locality having a badmintion court, and lots of girls as there was a girls college nearby but unfortunately in our three year stay in that flat we could hardly found a girl that we could admire, with Bhadoria (vikas) keep on shouting to the girls who used to sit in the in garden near our flat.

Something about our landlords Mr. and Mrs. Daripa with later one of the most horiffying looks and her shrill shout really makes us scared and we used to look for any possible way so that we would not have to conatact that lady, on the otherhand his husband was true gentleman thin and lean contrary to his wife in physique and character also. "Hum tumko bola tha na" and "Manish- Manish " was the chants we had to hear from her.

Our flat was really like the true home in the sense it has all the facilities that are required, and we used to have a cook for our meals, the true legacy we enjoyed thought not for a long time. Some skirmish that we often had on clearing up the monthly accounts and having a party of cold-drinks and icecream of the money that is left from the account. We also maintain a Hero-Puch that chacha(Manish) braught from one of the senior, that was real luxury be it going to the party or going for classes at SSI (nitesh will defenately remember that).

During our tenure of three years our flat was cleaned and maintained by many of the person with whom we have developed really good releation. the first was Rupa the maid we first employeed to clean our house, her name was totally a misnomer. then came our 'Jindagi' wale bhaiya, the person we discovered who had left his home in search of work, and he used to live with us until once he left for holidays to his village and never came back, and we found out that Rs 700 hundred were missing from home, then followed 'Bui' and 'Radhika' with Radhika serving for the longest time as she used to treat our house like hers, her favorite was Chacha and his brother vikas.

Though we four were living in that flat, but hardly we could find less than 5-6 people in it. Our constant visitor were our another three close friends of us, who have taken our flat as there own for granted and we havent have any problem with that. Our three Guest cum room partner are Paras Jain, Amit pandey and Manish Chaudhary. With pandey ji living most of the time in our flat toilet. Our flat was also a sort of place were people often come to get entertain, or entertain us, with their problems thinking that we have the solutions for each.

There is much more to write about the activities that we have done there that this space of my blog will prove to be scarce, still i would be writing about those later about my room-mates, friends of BIT, about bhilai and our college whenever i would get the momento for doing that.
