A STORY - A REALITY

IT IS A STORY WITH NO LINK TO ANY PERSON OR COMPANY LIVING OR DEAD OR DYING

Do you remember the advertisement that used to come on Television few years back about Helmet?
It said, "MARZI HAI AAPKI, AAKHIR SIR HAI AAPKA" (It's your wish, afterall, it's your head)
 
=============================================================================
Some background first to evaluate these situations:
=============================================================================
 
BACKGROUND:
 
Rahul (assumed Husband) is on his way from office to his home. His wife, Priya (assumed wife) had gone to her parent's house. She had told Rahul that she was missing her parents so Rahul had dropped her in the morning to her parent's place in the morning.
 
Rahul's phone starts ringing. As a law abiding man, he stops his car at a nearby stopping area onside and picks the phone. Call is coming from an unknown number.
 
Call is coming from a CAW Cell (Crime Against Women Cell).
 
He picks the phone. The call is to inform him that Priya has lodged a complaint against him, his parents, his brother who is suffering from Cancer and getting treated in Singapore (specialisation). The call is to ask him to come for a meeting tomorrow.
 
Rahul goes through emotion burst, goes through an immediate shatter of his happiness, his very existence. He keeps weeping, crying for 15 minutes in his car and while crying, scenes of his parents behind bar runs in front of him, a scene of police standing with handcuffs infront of the hospital bed of his brother runs through. He is scared, he is sobbing, crying, weeping but keeps wiping his tear as he doesnt want that bypassers should notice his tears.
 
He picks his phone again after cleaning his wet face (wet of tears) with a tissue & controls his emotions and call his father's number. His father picks the phone and says, "Khotte de puttar (laughing), kyon khush nahi rakh sakta tu Priya ko itna ki wo apne mayeke khush jaaye, miss ker ke na jaaye" (You idiot, why cant you keep Priya so happy that she goes to her parent's home smiling and not because she is missing her parents.).
 
Rahul controls himself but a slight weep goes through the mobile network and reaches his father's ear-drum. Father asks, "Is everything OK son? Dont worry. We are with you because we know you are a good man. Priya & all of us love you a lot and all of us are there with you."
 
Rahul is not able to control his emotions now. He disconnects the phone and starts crying again. His heart is not able to bear this pain that his parents still think that Priya loves him. His heart is filled with pain and agony that Priya has filed a complaint when eveyone lived with her like a queen along with 5 house helps who respected Priya as the new Controller of the house.
 
Rahul switches off his phone as he knows that his father will call him anytime to check what has happened to his son and why did he weep? He gets out of his car and starts crossing the road half mindedly as his brain has stopped working for past 30 minutes. He keeps walking across the busy highway, cars honking, people screaming at him "abe marega kya?" (Hey, Do you want to kill yourself?) But Rahul keeps walking across, his senses are not working. His luck walks with him till half of the road. He reaches the divider. He steps on the divider, suddenly his next step is on a poor stray dog who is sleeping on the road divider. The dog wakes up crying and the cry is so loud that it wakes up senses of Rahul too. He suddenly shakes himself and finds himself standing in middle of the road. He is blackedout on how and why is he in middle of that road. He quickly returns to his car (this time with care of not getting hit by speeding traffic) and sits inside and then gradually starts recollecting what happened with him in last 23 minutes. Last he remembers is his father telling him over phone, "Son we are with you".
 
These last words act as immediate powerdose to him. His glucose levels get back to normal, his brain starts working, his senses are back and he is thinking now.
 
He switches on his phone. He goes to Internet and searches on google if he can get some help.
 
After some search, he finds a phone number and quickly dials it.
 
After few rings, the call is picked and NOW:
 
==============================================================================
 
SITUATION 1:
 
Person on Phone (PoP): Hi, this is Men Service Center (Centers who give paid service are service centers).
Rahul: Hi, I am Rahul, I am calling from Thane. I have a problem and I need help.
PoP: We dont provide help, we provide service. It is for a nominal fee.
Rahul: See, I have just got a call from CAW cell.
PoP: We understand Rahul. We are a Staff and would log a call and give you a ticket number. You can then goto our website,www.PAY-THE-FEE.org, enter this ticket number and get 20% discount on our package.
Rahul: I need some help NOW.
PoP: Dont worry sir, thats why we are here. Your ticket would reach to Uncle Sam and they would call you back soon. Thanks for calling us.
Rahul: When will I get the call?
PoP: The moment you select a package on our website and become our member.
 
Rahul quickly logs into the website, www.PAY-THE-FEE.org and selects the cheapest package (nominal??? huh?, Rahul thinks), pays from his Credit Card and waits.
 
He gets an email confirmation & sms confirmation on his mobile.
 
He waits and great, he gets a call within few hours of depositing his fee. By then, he has reached Suraj's place (his friend) as he cant show his these tears to anyone else except Suraj who is his childhood friend.
 
He gets a call from another unknown number, but this time, its the Uncle Sam (US) from Men Service Center.
 
US: Hi ummmmm (searching on his screen for the name but still makes a mistake) Rohit.
Rahul: My name is not Rohit. It's Rahul but anyways.
US: Ohh Rahul, thanks for becoming our member. We are a Company who are there to give you services at the time you need. Thanks a lot for filing our membership form.
Rahul: See, I am in a problem.
US: All that is fine Rahul but we havent received your payment. Your credit card payment has not hit our account yet.
Rahul: See, I have made the transaction and I got SMS for my credit card for deduction of X,000 Rupees for your Bronze Package.
US: Ohh thats fine. We are a Men Service Center and see, you cant trust all men because as per our experience, lot of men take our services and dont pay later so we have to be careful.
Rahul: If you want, I can forward the SMS I got to you to prove my bonafide.
US: It's OK, we can talk as we run on trust.
Rahul: See, I am calling from Thane.
US: Ohh, thats a nice city. I visited it when my feminist mother was hiding when Police came to arrest all of us in #498A. She, like any feminist woman, hide there while me and my father were arrested. I would never forgive her.
Rahul: Thats not nice to talk about your mother. Anyways, it is about my problem.
US: Ohh yes, I got carried away.
Rahul: By the way, what is 498A?
US: Ohh, you dont know? See, this is why we need Men's Rights. Because of idiots like you men suffer who stood up to support my feminist mother. You have become our member and you dont know #498A? Is this idiocity expected from a learned person who knows Internet? You are good for nothing.
Rahul: (brushing all abuse aside) Can you help me?
US: We dont help, we give service. But tell me the problem.
Rahul: I have got a call from CAW Cell and
US (interrupts): Ohh, before we proceed, since you claim to have paid, we have our centers in all across India.
Rahul: You mean, I can come there to meet you now?
US: Yes, it is a Men service center and we are spread across India with 3 centers.
Rahul: Did you say 3? Is there one in Thane?
US: No, but we are not far. We have got one in Bhopal.
Rahul: Can you help me over phone.
US (laughs): Rohit, I told you, we dont help, we provide service.
Rahul: It's Rahul Uncle Sam.
US: Ohh Sorry. So you were saying you have got a call from CAW cell. Dont worry, CAW cell have no power. Dont worry. Attend the first date and come over to Bhopal over the weekend. You can play carom, chat with other husbands, go through law books, check your facebook too and all that for free.
Rahul: So what do you suggest that I do tomorrow at CAW cell?
US: Rahul, you are too scared. We are there to give service always. You can call me anytime and I will give you service.
Rahul: Uncle Sam, I am on call now with you, provide me service.
US: But Rahul, you payment is still to come. See, still, I trusted you and gave you some service. And on CAW, I told you, they dont have any powers. Read about 498A on our website and if your wife wants to settle the case, as long as it is within 5 Lakhs, it is OK, settle it as finally you need to settle the case.
Rahul: Is this what you tell me after paying X,000 to you?
US: No, we will teach you to fight. To stand up for Men's Rights. Men hate Men stronger but even then we trust you and talking to you inspite of the payment not being there.
Rahul: Do I need to go there with a lawyer?
US: Goshh!! Another Free service Mangina. See, you would need a lawyer but dont worry, with you X,000 nominal fee to us, we will reduce your lawyer expense by atleast 80%. So see, X,000 and we save your lakhs. It is not about money, but isnt it cool?
Rahul: By the way, did you abuse me?
US: I am telling you with folded hands that I am the Father of Men's Rights Movement and I have done so much for the movement.
Rahul: Who says you are the father?
US (angry now): You blood sucking Mangina, go to Internet and READ MY POSTS. IT IS ALL OVER WRITTEN, I AM THE FATHER OF MEN'S RIGHTS MOVEMENT OF INDIA.
And US keeps the phone down as Rahul and Suraj keep looking at each other thinking, what just happened?
 
==============================================================================
 
SITUATION 2:
 
Counsellor on Phone (CoP): Hi. Who is this?
Rahul: Hi, this is Rahul. May I know whom I am talking to? And are you from SAVE Indian Family Movement?
CoP: Yes I am, and my name is Svarup Sahukar (SS)
Rahul: Svarup, my name is Rahul and I am calling from Thane. I need help.
SS: No issues Rahul. I was about to sleep, but dont worry, tell me. You sound worried. Is all OK brother?
Rahul: Sorry Svarup for calling so late. I will call you tomorrow morning.
SS: No problem Rahul. I dont want you to not sleep tonight or to sleep with tension brother. I have spent such nights and dont want it to happen to you.
Rahul: Thanks Svarup. Issue is, my wife has filed a complaint with CAW cell and I have got a call just now.
SS: Ohh, thats sad. Reminds me my days but no issues. I am there with you. Where are you calling from?
Rahul: I am calling from Thane. Where are you from?
SS: I am from Delhi but no worries, I know the process for Maharashtra.
Rahul: Isnt there someone else whom I can speak to or meet in Thane?
SS: Our nearest helpline would be either Mumbai or Nagpur or Pune but since you are connected to me now, let me try and help you.
Rahul: Ok. Question is what should I do now? Should I get a lawyer?
SS: Getting a lawyer is not an emergency for now. Tomorrow you have to goto CAW cell. First thing, dont worry. CAW cell has reconciliatory powers and they would take you and your wife through that process. There are few variations but dont worry. Mentally prepare yourself for variations. Just stick to the truth and if there is any issue / abuse you face there, please file a complaint immediately. And the commonest fear, dont worry, CAW cell can not file FIR. FIR is filed by the Police Station. Get a copy of the complaint first.
Rahul: Ohh, that gives me some strength.
SS: I hope, I was able to give you some peace.
Rahul: Yes surely.
SS: Because, brother, what has happened, has happened. All of us can work to make situations, life and process easier for us. That what we are here for.
Rahul (reluctantly): Any charges?
SS: Do you charge your brother to help him with you experience?
Rahul: Can I call you tomorrow if I am stuck at CAW cell?
SS: Yes, you can call me anytime brother. Once you are free, do try and see if you can help others too.
Rahul: How?
SS: Since you are asking now, I am telling you else my request to you is not to think about us for now, think about yourself brother. You can join backbone of our movement, SaveIndianFamily Yahoogroup
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/saveindianfamily/info) for no charge help anytime from thousands of husbands like you and me across the globe and even join our Open Park, no charge weekly meetings. Details are on www.saveindianfamily.in
Now, nothing more for now Rahul, focus for tomorrow and dont worry, you have already won your battle when you are mentally prepared brother.
 
Phone is disconnected and Suraj tells Rahul. Darr mat bhai, dekhenge jo hoga (Dont be afraid brother, we will see what happens - together).
