Fragnance Of Success

By Dr. Priyanka Priyam


Everyone has considered daughters to be weak, but today a daughter has created a golden history by lifting 252 kg in weight-lifting in 49 kg category and has made not only her mother proud but the Nation.

Till yesterday no one had even heard the name of 'Jamuni Kevat', today 'Jamuni Kevat' was on the lips of every child. But when her father Khushiram Kevat starts going to office on his bicycle as usual, mother Padmavati says - Yes, today is my Munni's last competition, today she is going to get a medal. How many times have you told me not to interrupt? You spoil my day, you and your daughter have made my life hell, please forgive me now. Saying this, Khushiram starts towards office without taking tiffin. He thinks - My name is only Khushiram, I have never seen happiness, these two have made my life difficult. Here the news of the victory of "Jamuni" spread like the fragrance of sandalwood in the entire locality. Suddenly, there was a knock on Padma Devi's door. Media, media open the door. As soon as Padmadevi opened the door, her eyes were dazzled by the light of cameras coming from all sides. Everyone was eager to meet and talk to her first – someone would say, many congratulations! Then someone would say – Bless me, mother! One such Jamuniya come to my house. The process of interview started, media person Ramesh asked, where in the men's 49kg category weightlifting, the men lifted only 240 kg, in the women's weightlifting category, your daughter Jamunia kevat stunned you in the whole world by lifting 252 kg.

Hearing what you have given her to feed her, Padmadevi said - Yes, dry bread, salt and grass. There was no stopping the tears from her eyes, she was telling the whole story. She could not say anything. This entire interview was being shown live, which Khushiram was watching on the TV installed in the office. Then suddenly there was a lot of hustle and bustle and noise in the office... Sir, media! Where is Khushiram? Someone would give Khushiram a chair, someone sweets, someone water.

Everyone was eager to get their photo clicked with him, today Khushiram was looking really happy. Seeing such hospitality, he started diving into the sea of ​​memories, suddenly that blurry moment started dancing in front of his eyes - when the doctor told that it was a girl! As if the ground had gone from under the feet. He said- You have made my life hell, you have ended my dynasty because now you can never become a mother again and went out leaving his wife alone in the hospital.



Padma somehow managed to control herself because now she was not alone, the small palm held her as if she was saying - Mother, I am with you. Seeing the child, a smile suddenly appeared on her lips and said - My child! From today I am your mother, I am your father, I am also your teacher. Never feel alone. Days passed, she took Jamuni with her to the fields, while mother and daughter plowed the fields, added seeds, fertilizers and water and talked about many things.

Then Jamuni said - Mother, we have neither food to eat, nor a permanent house to live in, father does not even look at me, we don't even know whether we will get food tomorrow. Still, how do you remain so happy? So mother said- Because, I know! Tomorrow you will do something, my daughter, which no one has ever imagined. Then we will have daily food and a permanent house to live in. Your father will also be proud.

Days passed and she slowly completed all the outside work - driving the tractor, loading sacks into the truck and selling them. She wanted to save every penny of the money she got and build a permanent house for her mother. One day, Tara Singh, who had come for selection for the Asian Games, noticed Jamuni and took her with him. Mother dedicated every penny of the money to Guruji and said - Sir, this is our lifetime's earnings. Leave no stone unturned in learning, my child.


Days passed and today "Jamuni Kevat" created golden history and Khushiram started crying loudly as if there was a flood of tears. The interview ended... Jamuni's knock came on the house with drums and trumpets. Mother could not believe seeing the scene in front, Khushiram was really happy today, holding Jamuni in his lap. As if today he has really conquered the whole world.

Padma said- This is your real victory, not this gold medal! This is your father's love, a daily meal at home. father said - Only the lucky ones are blessed with daughters, with their arrival our life becomes fragrant like heaven. How unfortunate I am, to have deprived myself of this fragrance, and he cries bitterly.


Don't cry father, your daughter was truly born today. I love you very much father. There was a sweet smile on Padma's face today, which was full of peace. Today she has really conquered the whole world.
