Heartless acts!

One of the inmates of this huge colony had recently gone away on transfer. During their stay out here, they had a Boxer as their pet. Each member of the family, as I gather, used to show off their prized possession and the people around considered them to be genuine dog lovers! Well, the real story has now come out in the open. They've left the dog back and gone off to their new destination.

The Boxer is still bewildered and used to move around like a stray animal. Luckily, there are genuine animal lovers too, in our midst and one such family has taken the hapless dog under its wings.

Who gave the right to people to bring up pets and then dump them once their interest had waned? Why do these people consider owning pets only as a status symbol? The psychology of a dog is that, when it gets dumped, it starts fretting and starts to believe that there's something seriously wrong with it. Its end is pretty quick thereafter. And I'm sure that the type of people, cited above, do not value relationships even with their own kith and kin. I sincerely wish that they're taught a lesson or two in life without delay!

Blast in Varanasi.

This evening's blast in the vicinity of the 'Sankat mochan' temple of Varanasi is another cowardly and heartless act by its perpetrators. The violent death of that infant, I'm sure, will haunt them for the times to come! Hope the culprits are brought to book and the sternest punishment meted out to send out a clear message to the would-be-defaulters!
