A Brief History of Time

I believe my name is Bhaswati Khasnabis and the people of West Bengal know me as a political analyst and a member of BJP. The need for writing my history rises because a certain Anirudha Moitra has gone around telling a lot of lies about me. As far as l recollect from my days in Jadavpur University l remember l used to be a shy person just out of the convent who found it difficult to even interact with boys studying in the same class  Post college days l started teaching in Law college Durgapur where my experience is extremely pleasant and l was quite friendly with male as well as female students because l had little difference in age with them. Rules were strictly followed in this institution and it happens so even till today. Later l enrolled for MPhil course in JU along with Rangeet Sengupta and Manjistha Basu if l can recollect vaguely. I had to drop out of the course due to the utter nonsense that one of my Profs had created for me. A senior female Prof had insulted me for all the wrong reasons after which l have never been able to forgive or forget her. About the rest of my Profs l can only say that they were hardly interested in politics and never criticised me ignoring my extremely friendly Dada's sudden interest in me. There were some seniors and juniors who blamed me that l gave Dada enough provocation. I can only say that my ambitions were mediocre and still it is so now. I had aspired to be a poet or a writer and now that is what l exactly do. I used to be a JR in my college days but had done little work. Later l got admitted into RICE that really did not cost much but since l used to stay as a PG many of my classmates from my Master's days had gone around telling l never had enough money to pursue my Phd which is extremely strange considering l used to be a part time Lecturer at Barasat Govt College. Next my life in GKCEM was normal and here my colleagues were friendly needless to say there was a lot of commotion in the road as l made my journey up and down Baruipur. My mother gave me to understand that l lacked the courage to cope up with this noise and l started taking pills for a safe mental health. Years passed with my marriage my alcoholic husband and my kid my life came to a full circle. In GKCEM people never blamed me barring a few but the number of students studying Engineering grew less with time. Later l was transferred to Dr Sudhir Chandra College where l started completely loving my job after long hours of work. I was falsely implicated in a case which l now believe happened because l never learnt to take online classes. l never knew when the camera captured images and when it was switched off. I had problems using the computer and it happened because my perfectly helpful colleagues were not by my side. Later after leaving my job l struggled for a whole lot of time. But right after this as far as l know a journalist had started briefing on my history and character and l will always invite people to find out the truth if they have enough time and if they consider me important. I have always criticised Mamata Banerjee and TMCP 's supporters mean behaviour calling me a prostitute for all the male friends l have had. This is simply laughable because l have never dated any male in a restaurant so l should say more? l am fat, ugly stupid and l had two mentors two famous people whom l will never dare to call my friend. My life remains incomplete without mentioning them and yes l am honest to the core. A few weeks ago l had a nerve wrecking experience which l found out when l visited SouthPoint School and lo behold l discovered a famous politician is my neighbour. I do not know whether this is the truth or am l a schizophrenic, if you have enough time please find out that's my request for eager Kolkatans. I will always be a true BJP and cannot overlook sincere efforts taken by TMCP to defame me by fooling me around. I only wish l could gift my son a greener universe and a friendly environment and my husband my patience and my appreciation. I hope the Almighty helps me with it.
