THE WORST PLACES ON EARTH ARE MARKET PLACES.
Only those concerned
to know its worst need to watch and understand the uncontrolled, abnormal
behavior most of the day. It is a place where all kinds of criminals, cheats,
thieves, eve teasers, robbers and fraudulent come to take a chance of their
crimes. The adulterations are rampant and brotherhood among human
species is absent .At times untoward behaviors of the business community ,small
shop keepers, cell shopkeepers; their employees ,hawkers of all categories spread
over the foot bath as well as middle paths of the roads, in lanes by lanes and above all Law has no place in their life and dealing
I visited one of the well
known centres of marketing for the poor, middle class ,below average and also
rich income groups. They can get everything at reasonable rates. It is a bazaar
where every item in our use is available and a bazaar where every bit of ugly
event is bound to happen. All environmental filth and hazards endangering human
genus is invading the place. It is worst in the sense that men, women, children
and youngsters have only one single business that they come to purchase and
enjoy.
Auto rickshaws, two wheelers, hawkers and
trolleys keep are raiding the roads and the practice of passengers on sharing
basis is very common. Fast running public buses and vehicular traffic does not
allow you to answer the call of phones. The deafening sounds all day long, dust
laden with pollution are forcing their way to all our inlets such as ears, eyes
and mouths. Since the shopping centers are on both the side of the roads, the
continuous flow of human chains disrupts the speedy and safe movements.
Even the occasional
feeling of presence of the almighty, the creator and sustainner of all of them is
no more there. It is summer (42 degree Celsius) afternoon, one hears the bang
(Azan)coming from the mosques including Mecca Mosque nearby ,a call for the Faithful to rush to pray their universal lord. More than 90% are Muslims and who
traditionally l always votes to MIM and at times congress. None of them were
paying the least attention to the prayer call. Anxiety to rush to the mosque
was out of question. Islam enshrines that its faithful give up business and
move to pray. I have never seen them anxious to towards this duty. All are in
fact in complete command of devil .Only scant exceptions are there. The day
begins this way and ends that way. Defiance of Islamic laws are witnessed as
also the defiance of municipal laws and governance. The other centers of
bazaars are equally infected with those ills described above. It can
conclusively be affirmed that the market places are the worst in human
adventures. The idea to watch the bazaar behavior emanated from the saying of
Prophet Mohammad(BPUH) that the bazaars are worst places on earth. It is
confirmed.
The villages are
deserted fast and its inhabitants are moving to the bazaar cult and culture.
Concrete house soon, multistory rising flats(pigeon holes )proudly acclaimed
as best suitable suits are increasingly on demand. Loan borrowing trends become
the order of the day. Loans are
shamelessly borrowed by the residents and many defy the repayments. It is the
reminder of the element of shame (esteem) which drives the village farmers to
commit suicide on failures of repayments of EMI.
