This is story of common man, man who struggled for life and achieved small thing for his family, who not having political connection, who wants to make happy life with family and children, who not interfere in any other’s matter and expect the same from other. Its story of sweet couple named Shailesh Shetye and Kshama Chopra who get into love from there B-School life at SIBM Pune. Both are loving each other and Kshama is pregnant and couple enjoying there greatest days of life. Her friend tells that she was a bubbly and outgoing girl.

But the god wrote something different for them, At 12.10 pm on 5 May, 2012 Kshama, her parents, Shailesh and their driver Sanjay Gulati. Just when they were near the IFFCO Chowk intersection, a BMW racing at 100 kmph rammed into their Indigo. On the spot Kshma, their drive Sanjay Gulati died and Kshama’s parents and Shailesh got serious injury and admitted to ICU. It is brutal end of the love story.

So what happen to the driver of BMW? The driver of BMV is 21 year old person called Suraj Sehrawat – son of Devender Sehrawat. Sehrawat is owner of many buses and cab in Gurgaon area and provide transportation facility to many MNCs. Obviously family having great political connection and power of money to suppress the issue. But real drama stated after the incident. First, the police had not done anything and initially saying that first we wait for FIR to be lodged then we initiate the process. So how come we expect that family which lost one of family member and other in the ICU can go and file a FIR? This is the tragedy of over law. Similar thing we see in government hospital many time or other places where dying patient have to fill the form then he/she attained by the doctor. For the first ten days police and accused started cover up work. Few days after it, policy just say we are looking issue seriously and looking for accused but accused just finding way so that he can beat the laws. We have human rights watch dogs, social activist who can sit for fast, media who relentlessly discuses issue and draw the attention of the nation, parliament which can discuses 1960 cartoon row for whole day. But all are silent on it. It is a clearly serious matter which is faced by every common man of this country. Barkha Datt, Arnab Goswami or Karan Thapar where are all you? You guys seriously drag people like Narendra Modi or say Anna Hazare for whole day. Can you not highlight the issue? Yes, you will not get paid for it.

Mockery of episode happened when a person claiming to be the driver of the BMW car, Rajesh, had surrendered and was arrested. This person has not having single scratch on his body and perfectly fine. It’s clearly attempt to shielding the main accuse. On 15^th May, Suraj Sehrawat – Son of Devendra Sehrawat surrender before court and got bail within one hour of arrest. From last ten days he is untraceable and only represented by his advocate. It’s just making joke of over judicial system. This kind of incident we daily see in Metro by high profile person and titled with hit and run case but justice for them is far away from reach. I would like to see Rahul Gandhi, Anna to fight for this kind of common man instead of going to Dalits home or Lokpal agitation. If the future developed India (Which we often claim with robust GDP growth) is this kind, then I say sorry, we want develop India where ever one have fair and equitable justice, where everyone’s hard work respected by all, where rickshaw puller or any other can earn his bread and eat it with pride. I don’t want robust income; Rather want respectable life and administration treat everyone as equal as citizen of India. 

Common people are went to such level that after hearing this kind of news they just pray to god and hope then it will not happen with them. If people not raise their voice then it will continue, culprit with power of money and politics they will abscond and so called chip life of common man run in this way. It will remind me lines of Martin Niemöller

 

“First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me”

Hope the love of Shailesh and Kshama will meet again in somewhere and god gives some mercy to the common people to fight with the life.
