लगा इंसान हूँ

-
 सुबह आँख खुली, लगा इंसान हूँ, हाथ जोड़े, ध्यान आया कौन हूँ, दिन चलता रहा, शाम ढलती रही, कभी परिवार का हुआ, कभी समाज का, कभी देश का हुआ, कभी मज़हब का, रात हुई, सोने चला, फिर लगा इंसान हूँ, सुबह मेरा जन्म था, रात मेरी मौत, बस तभी मैं इंसान था,  बस तभी मैं इंसान था|

National Workshop on FOSS Desktop Accessibility on August 26, 2011 at CDAC, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai

Its not healthy. 15 day leaves that you take to go your home town once in a year will be saved if you don't travel.   When you don't take leave, will remain in office. This will also enhance your productivity.   If you don't travel, your expenses will curtail and you will ultimately save money.   The money you save, you will either invest somewhere or spend in the market. This is beneficial to all sectors.     When there will be less people in trains or no people at all, maintenance expenses of rail...
