I am alive because of Mr. Jaydev Prasad.

Today i narrowly escaped an accident, an accident which results in death in most cases.

I work in Indian Railways and my office is called as "Departure Yard cum Platform Station Master Office". This office is situated between Middle line of Kharagpur - Howrah section and departure yard.

There is always movement of trains in middle line and in yard. Sometimes in yard the trains run of engine-pushing and in such cases the driver is unable to see the front of direction of movement. In my case I came out of the office to instruct some movement to Mr. Jaydev Prasad. We shout and gesticulate to instruct to a person far away. Mr. Jaydev was about 50 meters away. I was unaware of trains behind me which was coming to my side. Mr. Jaydev gesticulated to me to look back. His gesticulation was so timely, that when i looked back i had about three or four seconds of time to move.

Mr Jaydev was also unaware that I did not noticed the train.

Last Word: I am alive because of Mr. Jaydev Prasad.

Last 14 years, after my fathers death

The last fourteen years. Why am I writing this? Actually today is 4th April 2009 and tomorrow is the death anniversary of my father. He died 14 years ago in the year 1995.

My grandmother in another room also got awake. I was ignorant that my father will die soon. My father was suffering from throat cancer. His stage of cancer was advanced but we did not know when he will die
