 LINK TO AUDIO FILE

           +91(472)2802198 is the number of the automatic complaint booking system of the thiruvananthapuram telecom. and the audio file available for download at the link given above is a recording of the response i got from the system when i tried to register a complaint on the night of feb 16/17 2013 about my home telephone 2802028 which i found was dead. 

               i was not allowed to record a complaint even after repeated efforts.  After feeding the required data the complaint booking system keeps on playing music for quite some time and then instead of giving the complaint number as is the standard practice comes out with a response “ the information requested is not available”. ( I thought the system was supposed to generate the information !)

        the line was dead from then on and was not repaired till march 10, 2013.

        this month as well my telephone bill was not delivered to me - as usual with all postal articles that are addressed to me the phone bill is delivered or not delivered at the whim of the indian secret police. in deed the previous bill was delivered to me and there was a reason - the bill was to be paid through ecs but it was not marked in the bill and i would have paid taken teh trouble of going to thiruvananthapuram paying by cheque.

        i managed to get a copy of the bill for february from the customer service office of the bsnl at cto tvm and i have been charged for the whole month. the fact of the matter is that in case the fault goes on record and the line is not reapaired within a short period i am not to be charged for the period of the disruption.

    manipulating the system ensured that the complaint was not registered  and i can be charged for the almost one month that the telephone was not working. the question why did you not repair in time does not come up - see the keralites are inherently highly intelligent.

          it is 20130330 1210 noon over here and i have been fiddling with my net connection for quite some time now - i have been ignoring the adsl light going off and later lighting up again off and on. as usual the blogger is coming out with a warning the page cannot be saved.  the fact is that i dont have permission of the indian secret police to connect directly to the net.  

            i accessed my google mail account yesterday after a long time and the web site was telling me to change to basic html - they cannot cope with the speed of my connection; it is so fast.

             i tried testing the speed yesterday at www.speedtest.net  - the ping time was 854mSec and the web facility said they cannot load the data.  today i tried again the adsl line was cut off after the facility to check the speed came out with a reply they cannot load data and when the adsl came on again i re connected and clicked try again and this time the speed was shown as 450 kb and 650 kb.  may be the strangle hold of the secret police has been  loosened  for the time being.    i have seen the maximum speed in practice as 45 kbp and the usual speed is 12 kbps and this is the broad band connection of the prestigious thiruvananthapuram telecom of bsnl! 

           nothing can be done about it for this is one of the worst police states in the world. And it is always "advantage police";  the people here worship the police men, regular police or spies.

THE SHAMBLING OF THAT MOTLEY CREW

Today it is a bit earlier. I have already cooked my evening meal ( it is the one and only meal that I have in a day ; of course I do have breakfast, mostly eggs and toast as well as a snack some time later. And there is invariably something or other to eat in between if you start getting the pangs – the aval and mixture concoction I had brought was finished today but I still do have stocks of two minute noodles and plantain and such ). The menu goes like this – cooked rice, dhal fry, curds, pappad, vegetable ( cauliflower) thoran and achar and for pudding haldiram's rosgolla! I have given the poocha madam her share her share of the feast and packed her off. I dont want to allow her to sleep in the kitchen; for one thing she will get on to the cushion on the chair later in the night and for the other she would want to go out in the early morning and that way she will disturb my sleep. Rather than have my dinner right now I decided to get on with the sitrep business and then gobble it up.

Tonight I will try to give a

RETROSPECTIVE

OF THE HAPPENINGS IN THE RECENT PAST.

The greatest achievement of the last couple of years is that I managed to buy a plot of land and that I have been living in my own home – shack or bungalow it is my own – for more than one year now.

And I have gradually got all the minimum essentials - running water, electricity, phone connection and such. My petite lily and Enfield bullet have their own abode and no more have to put up with the vagaries of the tropical sun and the monsoons, a facility that I did not have in my rented house where I was shedding out four thousand rupees per month as rent alone.

And all this against tremendous odds!

The indian pimps have been recruiting “relatives” to tackle me there and people have been taking pains to oblige them, those whom I have never seen for ages. And all the same I am holding on- Great!

PROVING A POINT

Given half a chance, I have proved my point time and again and that is why none of the petitions made by me are admitted by the judicial courts.

Instance - I

My telephone bills never reach me ( Postal articles addressed to me are at the mercy of the indian pimp service ). But as long as I am paying my phone bill through the ECS making my phone bills disappear does not serve any purpose; the ECS paymnent has to be stalled.

The members of the indian pimp service first approached their contacts in the telecom. My name was removed from the ecs list, I never knew and did not pay the bill and the first thing that happened was that my phone line was cut off for non payment of bill.

That was during the middle of 2012. But rather than pay the bill manually, I took up the matter with the telecom and they did not have much of a choice but to say sorry.

Now that the effort with the telecom failed the next effort was to cultivate contacts in the bank and make the bank do the dirty on me and refuse to pay the phone bill. But kind courtesy their senior officers the bank also was forced to make amends.

Instance - II

The zilla sainik welfare office's thiruvananthapuram did a disappearing trick with my ex-service identity card at the behest of the indian pimp service – “we are going to finish off this T%$#@**&” said one of the two pimps on “security” duty to them. So where is the need for the identity card.

It did not work out and they were forced to issue the card. Also, I had sent a love letter to their Boss giving him a piece of my mind.

Those who had tried to take me on on their own or on someone else's behalf, were not only made to eat humble pie, but I had also rubbed the matter in. That way I have picked up a good number of enemies as well who probably are licking their wounds.

I had got my way with the panchayath secretary on the matter of the request for information under RTI 2005 – on my appeal he was ordered to provide the information within five days and the great man probably did not enjoy it. In fact when I had met the panchayath office supdt. A couple of days before the last date for providing the information hoping to collect the reply in person, so that they don't have to bother about sending it by post, I am afraid she was scoffing at me.

I am not surprised that the builder after promising to do the needful on the matter of the issues regarding the building of my house made a sudden U- turn and came back to me quoting the panchayath secretary to justify their action. Rest assured I am going to make the COSTFORD “gentleman” eat his words at the time of the trial.

So some thing has to be done about me, and very soon, to save their face. And the gestapi is at it - the local goons male and female have all been wound up and they will be let loose on me if not today, tomorrow.

From my side the usual – I am ready when you are!

My suggestion to the intelligentsia is “please do not jump the gun”; wait till I am arrested and charged and put in jail.

Then I will be taken to all sorts of places including your place for recording evidence and that is the time you can give me a treat; I will not retaliate - some one in hand cuffs cannot.

I wish you all the very best.

P.S. If I can get better access to the www some time in the near future I will b adding links of the related documents at appropriate sites on this page.

What I am using to access the net now a days is a WIRELSS internet usb modem.

I was at home the whole day and for the information of all concerned I intend to stay at home for the next so many days – that is till I exhaust the provisions I had purchased in the last couple of days. I

The latest is that the electric power supply voltage has dipped. The netbook it looks is capable of managing with this much of power but I will have to soon switch back to the netbook's display for the LCD monitor that I am using at the moment is on batteries and the warning beep is on.

I had got up from bed past 1030am IST and had plans to do some positive work but ended up day dreaming amorous dreams and slept for another couple of hours from 1300 to 1500 hrs in spite of the full . incidentally “kottam chukkadi thailam” has fetched up over here and none of the locals will any more be suffering from any pain of any sorts. It started drizzling by then and the first thing that happens even before the showers is that power supply gets switched off – the result was that again I had to postpone my work. Even once the rains stopped the power supply was not restored and so I did a bit of gardening – all the delicate plants have been systematically destroyed and the others will survive even without my help; all the same it ( gardening) can boost my morale a bit.

The power supply got restored later with the voltage very low.

I just had my one and only meal ( a sumptuous one though vegetarian ) of the day half past mid night hour here and am trying to put it on record that I am still live and kicking as at the moment.

I would try to put this on the net but that is not essential to get the document published – any thing that I type in on my computer is in the public domain irrespective of whether I am officially connected to the net or not.

Continuing from where I had left yesterday: today I had been to trivandrum again for once I decide on doing something I will try my level best to attain my aim. It is very much possible that even using the latest browser is not going to improve my internet experience but now that I want to try the latest version of firefox I am determined on getting it; and in deed I got it .

To day I went to another internet kiosk, not the grand scale multimillion set up as the one of yesterday but a privately owned individual set up. The latest version of the mozilla firefox as well as the beta version was downloaded in just a few minutes. This time I ensured that I know where to look for once the file is downloaded and in deed created a folder and moved the .exe file to it.

Then I tried downloading some bbc podcasts. Altogether I could get 200 MB downloaded in the one hour for which I was charged 25 INR.

Then what happened yesterday ?

CLICK ME

for an explanation.

PS. i am trying to access the net from a usb modem and it is rather expensive by my standards; so i am in a hurry. many mistakes mostly minor ones have crept in but i cannot afford to go back and correct it. formatting is also not to my satisfaction. i cannot help it.

SORRY ABOUT THAT

Today I had been to thiruvananthapuram city; and I made a surprise visit to an internet browsing facility of one of the main isps of this great nation – I had an account with their internet browsing facility but has not been using it for quite some time now.

The main purpose of my visit to the internet kiosk was to down load one of the latest web browsers. Chrome is not available for download – you have to install it while connected to the net. Internet explorer is the most abused of browsers and if I install it, it may not even open. So I thought I will download firefox's latest version so that I can avail of the many functionalities on the web which are not available with the older versions of the browser.

I paid Rs.34 for one hour and the 19MB browser was downloaded in a jiffy – the connection was real fast. Then I started downloading some podcasts from the bbc to put to use the remaining time for the one hour has to be used up the same day.

Later I wanted to copy the downloads on to my usb to take it home; but the firefox that has been downloaded was not visible anywhere. At my request the staff member on duty also tried to locate the file, but could not find it anywhere on their network.

So I decided to download it again – I had enough and more browsing time left. But this time the firefox down load will not start. I tried all the tricks like using a different browser, trying other download centers – nothing worked.

The excuse put up by one of the staff members was that they had found that firefox was no more downloading.

Do you think that the download ceter of mozilla could have been compromised ?

Then how come it was downloaded initially? the reason is simple - obvious to any "policekaran; it was just another of the delusions/ illusions/ hallucinations of my diseased mind -

Enne changalakkitoo, priyapetta bandhukkalle.

By the way, my last month's telephone bill was been paid under the ECS of the SBI – the fact that the phone has not been working for more than a fortnight now is altogether different issue.

Right at the moment I am at my puter, on batteries – the power supply was being cut off time and again and this time it has been an hour or so. Interestingly the voltage over here now a days is mostly at 230 a tremendous improvement over the 70 to 130 volts that I used to get initially immediately on my arrival at this place! And I am worried – under indian circumstances manuafacturers of mechanical equipments and all customize their equipments to work at around 180 volts for that is the maximum voltage one can get under normal circumstances and I used to wonder whether my water pump is going to be damaged by the present 230 volts. One of the problems with this sort of disruption is that my washing machine is repeating the cycle for the n^th time – it has got only a volatile memory. I had switched it on immediately on my getting up at 0930IST and it is still at it.

In-communicado

My sole access to the outside world is my transistor radio and I am reminded of the situation I was in in the early nineteen-eighties. There was a mishap, a train ran over the people collected on the rail track to watch the temple gate fire works in tellicherry my birth place. I got the information from mark tully's broadcasting on the bbc on my transistor radio.

My telephone +91 472 2802028 has been dead since 16 feb 2013. there is a road construction work going on and the underground part of the cable is being damaged and it could be that they wont repair it till the construction is over. It does not make much of a difference for the telephone and internet are there in name only.

That way things are improving over here – instead of the literally backbreaking mud road there is going to be a tarred road from one hundred meters of my house onwards; piped drinking water supply has already fetched up and the electricity voltage problem is no more there. And So: desperate efforts are on to get me chucked out of this place; some are eager to buy my property at a throw away price others are acting out of sheer malice and so on.

Petty Thieving and Tampering

is continuing; the most recent thing to go missing is my wrist watch. It is one of the cheapest – most watch straps are costlier than this watch of mine and the principle I feel is “bhagne vale chorr ki langot he sahi”. But it is a cute one and keeps excellent time and I preferred it to my other watch with day and date and such thing and which is five times costlier.

Some time before that a couple of kitchen knives that I remember quite well I had left on a rack on the wall had also disappeared; and they never come back.

Another thing I noticed was that the jam that I had kept in its bottle in the fridge was getting consumed. I cannot bring myself to help myself from the left over of the indian pimp; so I have stopped buying jam altogether.

Some time back I found that most of the bottles of a case of beer I had purchased from the canteen and kept inside my shack had gone flat. I never had such an experience ever in the past; obviously there had been a meddling.

Another interesting incident was that about six months back. one member of all the pairs of socks I had went missing - I had more than ten pairs. I purchased four new pairs – that is adequate for I am sitting at home most of the time now a days and at home I wear only slippers. I am sure this “gentleman” had heard the story of the japanese workers of a shoe manufacturing company going on strike and rather than stop work altogether just made one only of a pair. Incidentally I had two pairs of an identical pattern and there again the “intelligent” had taken away one of the pair and so had left one matching pair behind which I could use !

Yesterday in the day time I was trying to do a bit of work on my desktop – I have refurbished my xp-system with a new intel DH61SA main board. while I was preparing a document the power supply got cut off and the from the sky the aero-plane dropped down like a stone on to the ground. I thought it could be that I had disturbed the cable coming from the UPS.

But last night again it happened. I was playing a message movie ( I am aware of the fact that it could be my desk top is being taken over monitored and so once in a while I play these “message movie” - I had made two in the last couple of days and it has been net casted.) Immediately a crotch shot came up all on a sudden, the mouse pointer and the whole screen got pasted and the computer rebooted on its own. So it is not that I had disrupted the power supply accidentally.

If they have installed hardware on the mother board ( as is very much possible for it can be easily managed when they break in while I am not at home for reasons of “security” with the connivance of the obliging local gentry ) there is nothing I can do about it. All the same hoping for the best I have cleaned up the BIOS and am going to try it out again some time later.

Earlier I had found that I was not being allowed to access the net from that puter I mean my desktop DH61SA. So some thing had to be done drastically about it and the new development could be the effort in that direction.

Now that the adsl is physically not there with the phone line cut off I am dependant completely on my reliance net connect. Incidentally now a days that is also misbehaving – the first time I log on the connection gets cut off immediately and I have to do it a second time. And this time probably I am routed through the Indian gestapo's mother's anus – there is no way I can verify the fact what with all the new fast track courts and all!

For once after a long interval with my Enfield bullet doing a good job ( and around 30kms / per litre ) I do not use public transport any more. And the only place where the indian pimps and their subcontractors can come close to me is the shops where I go for I have to get provisions.

Procuring provisions is a problem

Please do not be surprised if one of these days you find me facing charges of shoplifting; the whole so called security staff of the retail outlets have been primed and at the moment they have just stopped short of frisking me. So, I rotate between the various outlets and that way avoid an outlet once it has been monopolised by the pimps and go to some other place.

that way now a days I avoid perurkada while driving back and come via pattom there by motoring an extra four kms; but I enjoy the ride – it is a pleasure roaring along full throttle on my Enfield bullet on the national highway. And there is a bonus - I can get fresh milk from the dairy's sales outlet at pattom; it helps for I can keep the milk in cold storage for almost a week without getting spoiled. And that way it is a saving for I have to make a trip to thiruvananthapuram once in a week only.

Trying to make both ends meet

And I have been trying to cut down on my expenses. I no more buy fish for that is a luxury that I can ill-afford; even the small fish netholi that I buy mostly has become damn costly. That way I find that the best buy as far as nutritional value is concerned are eggs – kind courtesy the tamilians for almost all the eggs and poultry come to this place from tamilnadu and that along with milk has become my staple food.

The biggest chunk of my monthly expense is being spent on transportation and I am making a drastic effort to cut down on fuel – in feb 2013 petite lily went out only just once!

10:54:53 AM Gmt; and there is the chime of my whirlpool thing. After all those efforts since morning ultimately it has finished the washing job. It is already evening here but I think if I put my clothes on the line right now I can get it dry by dusk.

03/03/13 GMT 04:37:52 AM: I will be making an effort to upload this from whatever the type of connection available and I intend to put things on the net – it may or may not reach the wide world but it sure is going to reach the indian pimp and their subcontractors and that is more than enough. Only text and no pictures for graphics will be too much of an ask for my USB modem.
