jhabua

This was my third transfer in a year................. and one of colleague having good connections........ was determined to make out....... where i am being transferred........ as exact orders where not issued.......
while he was on cell connected to his connection we all stood by his side listening to his conversation ........ and he said..................
"kuch pata laga kahan ja raha hai ....... "
"hmm........ "
" JHABUA"....................... and we all repeated JhabuaaaAAAAAA......... (repeated and laughed in chorus) till there coffee spilled out of cup.................
jhabua is a tribal district on border of MP and Gujrat..... as remote as the name sounds........ and the famous phrase was born ...... "Jhabua gaya babua "....... and all of them changed my contact details .....................
now am "Jhabua" in there phone books or may b in there conversations too.......... :)
this is the way it began............
my train arrived at 11:30 pm at meghnagar,.............. Jhabua is like half an hour from this place.......
company cab was ready to receive me with a driver and guards armed with 12 bore rifles........ suddenly i was a VIP with armed guards for security............
making this secure PSU job even more secure ................... :)
guards told me....... the tribal s here smear there arrows in poison (scorpions or some shrub ) and ambush vehicles on the way to jhabua........
quit interesting information for a person destined to jhabua first time in life................. actually this is the beginning..............
