From pages of memory
24th
I was transferred from the post of SP of District Goalpara to Guwahati as SP,Special Branch,Assam in 1974. Now my jurisdiction was all over Assam and not confined to one District. But nature of work was different, in the district it was executive and in Special branch it was intelligence. I was feeling a bit depressed as there were no attendant perks to the post, such as house, orderly etc. I thought how we would manage with three kids of 5,4 and 3 years. A word of solace came from Venita. She said not to worry. Children adjust at any place easily. They need us and not perks. And I saw how true she was. In no time they became friendly with neighbour's children, not so well-off.
Before moving to a govt flat, we stayed in Circuit house for a fortnight. During our stay there, a senior officer visited us with his two teenaged daughters. He told Silku (4 ) to take out his daughters for a stroll and show the Circuit house. Sliku retorted ,"How can I take them out, they are so big?"
All of us laughed. One of the 2 daughters (smarter one) said that she would take him out. Silku happily went with her.
In all 4,40,215 cases with 14,017 deaths and 2,48189 recoveries were reported till 23rd June in India.
