X(some senior) :'Oye b***we! Naam Kya hai tera bey!
I: Deepak Pandey
X: Abe saale ,sir neeche kar,third button,thir-third button dekh!
I:Yes Sir
And he was walking with same pace as mine.
X: Abey saale B***n C**d, belt pehna hai! Tere ko rules nahi pata be m****r c**d.
I: Sorry s...
X:Sorry kya hota hai bh***i k. Utaar belt, abhi k abhi utaar.
I: Sir pant dheela hai, nikal jaayega .
X: Utaar be M****r C**d.
And i had to take my belts off the formals.
This was just one of the incidents which i remember the most. There are lot more when we were playing MPL(Its MNNIT Premier League, Cricket league). One of the incident was when we were made to field even during out batting.
However , Ragging was cool! I kinda enjoyed it . And what was the harm. They were never physical.
The guy 'X' was so deeply(if i may say!) moved by my respect towards him that he called me for a Room call the following day and actually gave his number and some books of second semester.
And Yeah! Everytime from now onwards, we would share a smile and some jokes whenever we passed by. I used to mock his tone (he was a saharanpuri guy with a typical 'jatt' tone) which he thought was natural for me too! To mention some funny such words :
Ball- Bole
Test-Tast
Bed-Bad
Pen-Pan
Topper-Toe-per
The Era of ragging lasted mainly between August - November 2007 with some bits in Second semester . By the mid second semester, I was BOND(as they used to call) among many seniors (and among a lot of final years of that time too).
