Intense passion for swimming

Finding a lanky boy in a dark red T-shirt wandering around as though he had just returned from his regular daily swimming practice was obviously a total surprise. This  was not the case at all. He can't explain why he decided on routine swimming, despite his considerable height. He didn't appear to realise that the chlorine in the water would turn his face dark. He and two other older boys were swimming without realising this important fact. This will continue for a minimum period of one full month, as was revealed. Every day, these three lads go to a nearby pool to practice swimming. But the younger one did not go for the usual practice  on the particular day since he had developed a slight cough, which was definitely learned following his smart disclosure in the night.  He seemed to be unaware of the fact that chlorine in the water would darken his fair face. Unaware of this significant reality, he and two others continued swimming. This  goes on regularly but sudd...

Jajmau power flop fixed at 2: 13 a.m.


Nothing upsets residents so much as the sudden power supply failures in Jajmau. It was just on Thursday night that the electricity supply got disrupted, owing to the JCB action that remained in the afternoon in Kanpur's particular area. 

As the levelling process was undergoing, the cables lying beneath the ground broke, and the area getting power supply from those cables plunged into complete darkness, as the people reportedly witnessed. 

Coming out of their respective houses on the road, the residents started blaming the sudden fault. It was quite unfortunate to hear that the servicing was not being initiated sooner. The electricity supply remained disrupted for several hours. The disturbed residents said that it was delayed for reasons clear to the servicing team engaged in the repair. 

What began to irk residents was the onslaught of the winged mosquitoes in the absence of an electricity supply in the densely populated residential areas. 

However, they sought help of the inverter to secure them from the blood sucking insects. Their patience gave way with the weakening of the inverter's strength. 

It was only after 2:13 a.m. that the electricity was finally restored. Even the late restoration of the power supply earned applause from the helpless residents. Everyone learnt that it was too difficult to bear the power supply disruption. 

There’s been plenty of noise about this delay in normalisation of the electricity supply during this humid summer night, but the residents had to bear the onus of the power failure. They really appeared to have demonstrated their patience, coolly accepting the exact situation. 

A humid situation was surely not quite good face for everyone. With a humid night, it was a spell to curse the power disruption for scattered locations, something a little more unbearable.
