Baromas By Sadanand Deskmukh

From last 2-3 years the newspapers are publishing same story, Farmer's from Marathwada are committing suicide.In my personal view until we face death close to our family/friends circle we never realize the impact of that incidence, so most of the times i used to say what an Irresponsible fellow, who'll take care of his family?,must have totally lost his mind, those are the people who just can't face any challenges go with this simple path(is it?),now after finishing this Great novel which won Sahitya Academy Award ,my whole view for farmers is completely changed.

This is the simple story of farmer from Marathwada(Agriculture Region in Maharashtra which totally depends on Rains for water) who gets married to a Girl who has some big dreams which are impossible to turn into reality in the village.His father always wants to get loan from SAWKAR(Unofficial loan Distributor who charges really high interest rates )as banks need some huge documents plus loan approval after the rains is of no use to farmers, His mother who is jealous of his wife as she lived into city & unable to adjust into Rural area & his brother who is searching for hidden treasure all the time with his literate unemployed friends from the village as he has passed the government written exam but not having any reference as well as Money which he can give to officers as BRIBE for selection.Now the story moves and some things happens which are tend to to happen in INDIA because of uncertainty of MONSOONS &.......

Guys grab the book & read it,it'll leave the same questions which are in my mind right now. It'll give you a real rural life touch to your AC,IT,APPRAISAL,MULTIPLEX world.

Plot is really simple but the characters just go directly into your heart as this is the story you can easily correlate to any family.Even after finishing the Novel 2 weeks later i was in the book zone.

No one wants to finish this beautiful life by drinking pesticides,but there are some conditions which can easily happen to anyone even a guy in IT industry.The simple message is Life Is Beautiful ,try to utilize each moment to fullest, even in the dark phase of your life you can easily find the ray of light , you just needs to
be strong & never give up at any cost!!!!!!!

Varandha Ghat & Shivtharghal on 20'th July 2008

On 20'Th July 2008, all our Bizsol gang joined together to have the Best Biking trip ever.

We went to Varandha Ghat which is almost 120 K from Pune. As usual the plan was thought by me long back (My plans-- Quantity is huge but actual implementation rarely happens :)
We left pune at 7.00 AM , our Pulsars were catching 85+ all the Time, After some South Indian snacks at NATRAJ we were out of NH4 & took the road towards BHOR. 1'st spot was BHOR BHATGHAR dam. We got some company by Kaveri bus Girls ,took some nice pictures and decided to move ahead .In Summer 2007 we were there to view the inner dam it is Constructional marvel by British guys which was build in early 1900 .When water level goes down we can still view that beauty & we are the fortunate ones to claim we have seen that !!!!!!
As usual our trip favorite Bhel material we bought in Bhor and started the rough Ride .The rod condition was really poor in early stage but the scenery was so great we forgot that we were on the worst Road .

The Manson have not heavily fall this year so we were hoping we should see at least some waterfalls on the road but Luck was on our favour we got the 1'st very shortly.Vivek & i was wearing the shorts & floaters so we just directly jumped to words the main waterfall.Played with water , now with that great start all of us were so happy that we never missed single waterfall on the Road
The view of the road was incredible .Road is really the tourist Delight, On the left you have the the backwaters of Nira Devghar Dam,

on the Right you have beautiful waterfalls ,the journey continues for 45 minutes and you reach the PEAK .The monster waterfall is waiting for You with clouds all the times and all Lust Green nature everywhere your eyes can go , sometimes you wonder what is the definition of BEAUTIFUL ? The beauty must have originated from this place only!!!

The serenity of the place is just out of the world.Last week i was watching 1000 places you must see before you die on Travel and Living .After watching this beauty of Varandha i felt if you are in Maharashtra & you have not seen this Beauty then you have really missed the Best part of your Life.


Well after spending some quality time there we moved to Shivtharghal ,which is the origin of DASBODH .The Guru of Shivaji maharaj RamdasSwami stayed at that Place. The Road from Ghat to the main place was the Worst of whole journey .We were hoping safety of the Bikes as all 100 Km we travelled without a Bike service station on the Road.Luckily pulsars are Born tough so we were out of any damage. Personally i didn't like that place.
Then after taking some hot Bhajies from the local vendor we moved back.All the Bhel material was waiting for all of us. We found good place to have food and the our chefs went into action. After 30 min of preparation we had great spicy & really Delicious Bhel with the company of the beautiful peacocks on the the other side of the Road. Weather was still favoring us by giving company of of clouds all the Time.
While coming back we found this tree alone on the hill,must been warning to MICROSOFT how come you missed me as a default wallpaper on the Windows XP . Look Mr Bill gates & Microsoft team ,this can be the next wallpaper for new OS version!!!!

Then we took 50 km nonstop journey tiil Bhor while coming back, by this time everyone was holding their backs like anything .Sit on the Pulsar for 230 Km in a Single Day & you guys can exp the same thing. But the beauty of the place was so enthralling that whenever I'll remember about Varandha, I'll always feel that that was the best time which i can cherish for my entire Life .
