Happy Birthday Amrita!

Remembering renowned Punjabi poet, essayist, and novelist Amrita Pritam on her 102nd birth anniversary.

तेरा मिलना ऐसे होता है, जैसे कोई हथेली पर एक वक़्त की रोजी रख दे। (Meeting you is like someone starved being given a day’s meal)

Thank you for forgiving me

For others these might be just ₹5 coins, but to me these are blessings.

I guess I was 10 years old when I last went for the darshan. I remember we were stuck in a queue for about 2 hours in scorching heat without water because some VVIP came for the 'special' puja. I was not able to stand properly because many people were crammed in a narrow passage connecting to Vaishno Devi Shrine.
