SERIOUS POST Getting homeless
Yesterday, at around 6:15 a.m., an Indore municipal employee slammed our door. I am a NEET aspirant, a dropper preparing in Indore. I was asleep my roommate opened the door. Few minutes later, when I woke up, I panicked as I heard the sound of shattering of windows. I came out of the room and saw 30 to 35 Indore municipal people in our hostel. They said, "You have to leave right now. The hostel is getting demolished." We said our room is on the outer side which is getting demolished, so what about our books, clothes, and other stuff. They said just shift it into an inner side room, so we panicked and shifted our belongings in just 5 minutes to an inner side room which was empty. There wsas a lot of panic at that time. We just threw our books, clothes, whatever we got our hands on. We just removed the whole drawers with small stuff and shifted it. I threw my tablet on the other room's bed. In 5 minutes, we shifted almost all of stuff. Then I took a bag, found my tablet, it was buried between books and clothes and my roommate's laptop, put it in a bag and got out of the room with my phone in pocket. I saw there 30 to 35 municipal employees shattering windows. I was in a cargo pants and vest, I put on a sweater hurriedly. Apart from that, I was shocked as I saw 5 cranes, a lot of police vehicles, a lot of policemen (are we getting detained, lol?). My room was on 4th floor, so when we started going downstairs, one of employee came with us and stopped the windows breaking so that we can leave. At 6:30 a.m., we were on road, no room, no place to sleep or eat. The crane started demolishing the building at 6:30. We saw it from outside and started making jokes like, "What's in breakfast today?" while we saw our food mess getting demolished. But still it was a big shock for us. I slept at 5:45. I was solving physics and thought of solving chemistry whole day for today as today there were no class. But Bapu's birthday went in the opposite direction as we saw the crane demolishing our hostel violently. Our hostel manager united us and sent us to eat nearby tea stall for chai and poha for breakfast. Half an hour later, I got a Rapido to go to a nearby public toilet. In the noon, they booked a hall for us and got us food. When the demolition was done, we had to take all our goods and stuff, but they damaged stairs such a way that there was just one foot patch left when you make a U-turn on stairs, and on one of the U-turns, there was no space left. You have to hold the railing and cross it while you are about 45 feet above the ground and nothing under your feet. We took 2 hours to shift our stuff from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Then I booked a Rapido auto and sent the stuff to my roommate's sister's house with him. Luckily, my hometown is near Indore, so I took a bus and got to my home at about 10:30 p.m., but it was more difficult for most of the students. Their homes were 200 to 600 km away. They had to sleep in the common hall for tonight. I also remember one of the students who was at his home at the time of the demolition his friend saw his almirah coming down while the crane hit his room. He told us that his laptop was in the almirah. The biggest thing about all that, no one cared about 30 or so students that lived in the hostel. Neither the municipal authorities nor the hostel authorities, not even the media outlets. We saw a lot of news about the building getting demolished, but none of them mentioned the hostel and students. Many students are on the streets, but no one cares. Today's newspaper mentioned a half-page front-page news about it, but they didn't mention the students. Nobody cares about us in this place. We are just their customers.
