One night at Madurai streets

This is an incident which I never forget in my life… This is a real and really a long story…

It was during the end of my college as well as hostel days… In those days, I use to roam with my friend Jawahar Manoj in his bike. Though I have been in Madurai for 4 years, I never got used to roam in all the main streets of Madurai. So, me, Jawahar, Kaalimuthu, Sabari all decided to go on a night drive. We used our kosu’s TVS 50 (a jet machine :)) without saying him the purpose.

I was with Jawahar and Kaali was with Sabari in the jet 🙂 . We dodged our hostel security officer after 9 pm as there is no permission for anyone to go out after 9. Firstly we started to a petrol bulk where we filled our tanks for our journey. On the way, we were traveling without a specific target. Our places were through Pasumalai, Bykkara, Periyar Nilayam, and the way to Maattu Thaavani where we decided to stop the journey.

On the way, we took many photos at various big hotels in Madurai, the parks, near temples, in front of all the cinema theaters, and on the left alone streets.There was no problem towards Maatu Thaavani… As we have no papers for the TVS 50, we were afraid of police at that time, and decided not to go to Maatu Thaavani. After reaching Pudhur, we had a tea time 🙂 and decided to return. It was 2 pm then.

On our way to Periyar Nilayam, we met a group of policemen. They stopped our vehicles and inquired us. Already I had a sweat-wash in my face(As this is new to me 🙂 ). Brilliantly, Sabari escaped us from the police and we saved our TVS 50 😉 Thinking we have escaped from the police, we started to the hostel with shivering hands 🙂 .

I think it was a tragedy day for us 🙂 . The next stop was in the Bykkara check post where another set of policemen stopped us for inquiry. As I was thinking that we wont escape from this second catch, Sabari again escaped the TVS 50 from the policemen, which must have been under trouble. As a turning point in the story, the Pulsar got caught for the case of over speed. The reason is that the police inspector who was on the spot tried to stop the pulsar, Jawahar went out of balance and stopped a few steps crossing the inspector. So, the inspector found a reason and caught us there 😦 .

Me and Sabari left the others in the spot and returned to TPK. No one of us had money with us, and also not ready to leave the vehicle under the police custody. We two went to the 24 hours shop in Thiruparankundram, where we would take snacks during the night time.

As we were speaking about the situation, the shopkeeper heard it and bullied himself in the scenario. He really offered an hundred rupees note to us for the fine. Sabari took the money to the checkpost and returned back to the shop, where I was waiting for him. After he came back, the shopkeeper again said that he knows a policeman. He called that policeman for us and asked him help for us. A few minutes back, a call came to him that my friends were rescued from the spot. Then we stayed there till 4 am in the morning and returned to hostel.

I will not forget this incident in my life… Do you believe that a shopkeeper, just hearing the speech between us, has given 100 rupees to us and asked us to return the next time we go there ? Also, do you believe a person helping an unknown person through his friendship with a policeman ? These prove that helping tendency has not yet found its grave in Our hearts 🙂 .

Finally, we had our Kosu’s TVS 50 got escaped from the police inquiry 🙂
