A cab story (non-fiction)
I boarded an Ola cab last night for a trip of around 45 mins.
Straightaway my eyes went on Taj Majal & Dr Ambedkar statue on his dashboard.
I could sense “Meem Bheem Syndrome,” & decided to break the silence.

I asked him, “so you follow the principles of Dr Ambedkar?”
He replied in an inquisitive note, “Dr Ambedkar?” & said further, “you mean Babasaheb?”
“Yes,” I replied & said, “seems that you are fond of Taj Mahal too!”

He replied positively with a smile & said, “Sir, it is a great building, a symbol of love & thanks to dynasty of Akbar who gave us so much.”
“Hmm,” I said, “but have you heard or ever read Dr Ambedkar’s views about Islamic rulers & invaders?”

“What sir, everyone knows, Babasaheb was all up for social harmony, justice & specially secular to core. He taught to see all religion people as our own brothers & sisters,” he said.
Again I smiled & asked him, if he has heard of his book, “Pakistan or Partition of India?”
He replied negatively. I opened the pdf in my phone to show him what book it is & then explained few crux points from there.

My destination was almost there so I ended up forwarding him the book “Pakistan or Partition of India” & one of my essay on Dr Ambedkar firstpost.com
He just said at last,”thank you sir, for giving a right direction. I will remove this Taj from today.”
I said with smile while leaving, “place sculpture of Kailasha Mandir if you find & a deity. Worship him everyday before starting the day.”
He nodded positively & I left.
