Electron phas gaya

Electron phas gaya tha

The electronic equipment of modern age has its own mind. We feel the switch is in our hand forgetting that coming ón live is in the mood of the gadget. The behavior of mobile, phones, tablets cannot be taken for granted.  The other day I got a ring in my mobile when I tried to reach  then it stopped. It was known number so I gave a call to him, he said, “ Sorry I did not call, but something is wrong with my mobile it suddenly calls on its own and it is mostly the last number called.”

All of us who have mobile know that suddenly everything freezes, then it won’t switch off, so take out the battery and hey presto…it starts working normally as though giving us warning that ,” Don’t treat me lightly, I have my moods.”

In an army establishment it so happened that the wireless set was not working. It was those days when wireless is supposed to be ultimate in electronics. The army engineers were struggling to make that work. It won’t budge, no statics at all. A sardarji jawan who had handled this equipment in field was called. He fiddled with the knobs, no sir….it would not work. He got frustrated and gave it a kick….lo behold it started working. The jawan nonchalantly looked at all the bystanders who were awed by the miracle. They asked, “How did it work?” He replied,” It is nothing woh ek electron phas gaya tha, lath mara woh nikal gaya.” Saying that he walked off.

I think that electron theory still holds. I had written about my mobile getting conked off and then sending the same to Samsung service center for diagnosis. I was told it’s motherboard has damaged and I have to pay Rs.10,500 for replacement. I decided not to get it repaired instead go for a new one. Was doing some research for the brand, got advise from my son Anish and nephew Monish. Was about to go on line purchase but remembering “ the prophetic electron theory” so I hooked up the mobile for charging through my computer…..surprise of surprise….the indication came on for charging which was not coming since yesterday…allowed it to get charged up to 5% and made a few calls…all fine so far…so the electron theory still holds….all of us slap the remote a number of times when it does not work even after removing the cover and replacing the battery…yes you guessed it right it is the ubiquitous “electron” which choked the system so slap it…
