Baazigah

Iqbal Majeed

Jo kuch hua vo aakhir hua kaise ?

Abhi sab kuch hai abhi nahin hai ! aur agar hai to wah nahin hai ki jo tha mai apne bahri kamre ke dawaze par kursi dale baitha tha ! wah poorab ki taraf se aayee thi ! bus eik parchhani si, koi chiz kab kaisi, koi chiz kab kaisinaar aati hai kya dekhne wale ki khud apni halat par munhasir nahin ? yah to mein ab bata sakta hoon ki vo koi tees baras ke aas paas ki rahi hogi, maile baal, ghere daar ghagra aur usmein kuch peband, kuch najuk sa pak naksha, rung sanvla, jiska namak shayad sakht mehnat ki zindagi ne uda diya tha !

Mein us samai apni zindagi ke aise marhale mein tha jab such poochha jai to mujhe kuch dikhai hi nahin de raha tha kyonki vahi to vo manhoos lamha tha jab maine apni jaan dene ka phaisla kar liya tha ! mujhe yaqeen ho gaya tha ki main apni tasleem khuda suchaiyon aur apne usoolon ke saath dev jaise daim ki taami mein maroof saikdon amle ke beech apni nuakri ko nahin nibha sakoonga ! main eik engeneear tha aur eik sistam ke tahat mujhe doosron ke saath jinme mere aphsaraan bhi the aur sahayak bhi apni zimedariyaan poori karti thi ! hairat ki baat yeh thi ki mere sare saathi yah jante the ki jo kuch vo kar rahe hain ! kisi taha se bhi jaaiez nahin magar wah is kam ko is tarha karte the jaise vo unki peshavrana zroorat ka eik jaaieza hissa ho ab mujhe yeh nahin maloom ki is mamle mein kasoor mera tha yaa doosron ka baharhaal itna to tai hai ki achhe aur bure ka farq karne ke liye mere paas apne kuch paimane the aur main isi imaandari ko imaandari aur beimaani ko beimaani jaanta tha jo mujhe sikhlai gayee thi chhote kuch ka eik sinear engineear jo pahadi tha aur meri dalilon par taras khakar mujhpar meharban raha karta tha, kai baar mujhe sajha chuka tha ki imadar rahna darasal eik majboori hai aur log aamtuar par imandar isliye raha karte hain ki unhen beimaani ka muaka mayassar nahin hota ! baharhal baat bahut badh chuki thi, doosre din qreeb aate hain to bach nikalne ke sare raaste pahle hi band ho jaya karte hain ! yah baat khasi taqat hasil kar gayee thi ki main raaste ka roda banta ja raha hoon ! phir is rode ko hatai jane ki sazishke jaal kuch is kadar tang hote gaye ki mujhe laga ki yaa to mujhe khud hi mar jana chahiye yaa phir yah intezaar karna chahiye ki kisi din mere darwaaze ki call bail baje, main dastarkhuan par se nivala chodkar darwaaze par jaoon jahaan do char ajnabi log mere intezaar mein hon, vah mujhe intehaai maqool bahane se kisi veerane mein le jain aur vahaan mujhe zabha karke is tarha daa den ki meri pahchan mein hi khasa vaqt lag jaye ! kyonki ab mamlat ki raftaar khasi tez bhi ho chuki thi, har roz koi nayee zillat, koi naya bakheda aur koi nayee varning se samna ho raha tha !

Vah theek hai ki mera baap har baar mujhe khat mein kisi na kisi bahane is badi raqam ki mujhe yaad dilata raha tha jo usne qarz ke tuar par meri shiksha ke liye samai samai par badi jod tod ke saath hasil ki thi use yaqeen tha ki sare aarthik mamlat ab chutki bajane meni hal ho jainge, par tha bilkul nahin ! darasal mere saathi bade chalak the, main itna majha hua to tha nahin, phir gopal engineear ka anjam apni aankhon se dekh chuka tha ! usko anti karapshan wale amle ne kaise runge haathon pakda tha, thane mein darogha ne kullhad mein apna peshab gopal ko pine ke liye diya tha ! vah to kullhad gopal ke munh mein laga bhi dpar jab dus hazaar naqad ginva liye tab kullhad phenka haram ka paisa kis tarha liya jai aur is len den mein khud ko surakhshit rakhkar doosre ko kis tarha se aur kin tarkibon se zariya banaya jai darasal isi ayyari par vahaan ke sare khel ka daromadar tha 1 aur main vahaan apne hum pesha logon ke bich naram chara samjhakar taak liya gaya tha ! mujhe to vahaan zamin par chalte huaye bhi dar lagta tha ! meri pahli aualad ladki thi, mushkil se panch baras ki hogi unhin dino taar aaya ki doktar ki ray hai hai ki velloor mein dikhlaya jai kyonki riport badi tashbashinakthi ! main to sapno mein bhi dekhne laga tha ki vah andhi ho choki hai, uske baad bhi main ne tai kar li ya tha ki main sab kuch chodchadkar bhag jaoonga ! par ab mujhe lagta hai ki meri yah baat mere sathiyon ne shayad pahle hi tad li thi kyonki mujhe baad mein pata chala ki vahaan ke bade se bade engineear, babu thekedar aur in theke daron ke piche zor lagane wale aadmi sab eik ladi mein piroye hua hain, kyonki khel karoron ka tha dus bees jaano ki haisiyat hi kya thi aur vah sab mujhe achi tarha take hua the ! mujh tak badi hoshiyari se yah khabar kayee baar pahunchai bhi ja chuki thi ki agar khair chahta hoon to kabhi bhagne ke liye khuab mein bhi na sochoon ! mujhe lagta tha ki agar police ne jabardasti mujhe apne parvane ki gandi handi khilane ki dhamki dekar dus hazar bhi mang liye to main kya kroonga ! main to dar ke mare apni tankhua ka lifapha bhi kaishiyar se lete hua eik baar kanp jaya karrta tha ki khuda jane ismein kya ho aur bahar nikalte hi mujhpar kya guzre.

Bahri kamre ke darwaze par akela kursi dale baitha inhin khayalon mei duba tha ki vo samne aakar khadi ho gayee aur phir jo kuch guzra use yaad karte huae to mere rongte khade ho jate hain aur hairat hoti hai ki main khuli fiza mein sans kaise le raha hoon, mjhe to jail mein hona chahiye tha ! kaisi sharnak soorate haal thi ! aise dukhi dino mein jab ki main apne hi haathon apni marzi se apni jaan de dene ke liye dar pai tha to unhin dino mujhe khud ki jaan bachane ke liye kaise kaise kam karne pad rahe the !

Bazahir eik mamooli sa kaghaz jo uski gandagi si odhni ke eik palloo mein badha hua tha uski madad se yeh tasdiq to hui ki vo kis ilaqe ki hai aur pahle kis zamin par aabad thi ! jab halchal badhi to zahir hai ki midia valon ko sun gun lag hi gayee, bus unhonne dhire dhire ball ki khal tak udhed kar phenk di ! naam ram dai tha aur pati ka naam mansa ram tha, yah to us kaghaz se hi pata lag chuka tha, kaghaz ne yeh bhi zahir kar diya tha ki is banne wale daim ke silsile mein sarkar ki oor se khali karai jane wale ilaqe meni se eik choti aabadi wale gaun mein mein uski bhi jhonpdi thi midia walon ne suragh pakar dekhte hi dekhte is chote se gaun ke mukhia tak ko dhoondh nikala ! akhbaron mein surkhian chal padi zahir hai ki mukhia ne sauch bolne mein koi kami nahin ki ! saf saf bayan diya ki ram dai ka pati jungal mein lakdian batorta tha ki eik din kisi adam khor sher ka nivala ban gaya ! sirf eik oor ka adha haath jis mein chhe ungliyan thin ! mila tha jis jismein gaun walo ne mansa ram ki pahchan kar li thi ! tab hi zor zabardasti gaun walon ki is ilaqe se be dakhli ka purshor kam bhi amal mein aana shuroo ho gaya tha ! jab akhbaron ne yeh kadiyan milai to doosre hi roz bade bade angreji akhbaron mein vo partiyan sir garm ho gayee jinka khayal tha ki arbon ki lagat se banai jane wale daim darasal gharib dushman tamiren hain aur is tarha ke unnati ke kam se bade aur dhanwan kisano uar mote karkhane daron ki bhari hui thailiyon ko aur ziyada bhane ke ilava sarkar ka aur koi doosra maqsad nahin hai aur dukh ki baat yeh hai ki yeh kam gharibon aur kamzoron ko be ghar aur be sahara karke kiya ja raha hai !

Mahilaon ke bachao aur unki bhalai se sambandhit partiyon ne to mera jeena hi haram kar rakha tha ! zahir hai ki har baat ki vazahat khud police ko bhi mujhse hi darkar thi, isliye mera unki hirasat mein pahunch jana thika hi tha ! aisi hai kisi achi sanstha ki do mahilain door daraj se takliph bhara safar karke is chetar mein jab mujh tak eik roz pahunch gayee aur unhone mujhe is tarha dekha jaise ki main kathare mein band koi bhedia hoon to us vaqt ki be basi yaad aa jane par aaj bhi main til mila kar rah jata hoon ! mujhe ab yeh to yaad nahin ki un mahilao ne mujhse kitni baar bhent ki par unke savalat ghusse aur sharam se paseene paseene kar dete ! dekha jai to unka yah amal ziyada ghalat bhi nahin tha ! par mujhe hairat yeh thi ki aakhir vah mere kisi bhi jawaab par bharosa kyon nahin kar rahi thi ! unmein se eik aurat jiske ball kate hua the aur jo nili jens pahne thi aur shayad khasa qimti gagel aankhon par lagai thi kuch ziyada hi bebak thi ! pata laga ki vah mahilaon ki kisi angreji patrik se talluk rakhti thi ! usne to kuch choda hi nahin, mera naam, meri zaat, mere baap ka pesha, makan jaidad sab kuch pooch dala phir is tarha ke savalat bhi ki meri shadi ho gayee hai yaa mai kunara hoon, mere biwi bachche saath kyon nahin rah rahe hain aur mujhe apni zimmedariyon ke kaaran biwi se kitne samai tak door rahna padta hai ! baad mein mujhe pata chala ki usne doosron se yah bhi maloom kiya tha ki main sharaab pita hoon yaa nahin aur kiya main aurton ka purana shikari hoon !
ajeeb samai tha ! akhbaron mein ram dai ki poori tasveer jismein poora hall taphsil se shamil tha chhapi to uske barabar meri tasveer bhi muajood thi yeh khabar sunkar meri sidhi sadi biwi ki nidhal kaifiyat aur isi tarha se mere dedh baras ke bachche ko bhookh piyas ki kamzori mein sambhalne ka hall jin logon ne baad mein mujhe batlaya tha usse main andaza kar sakta hoon ki hogi ! eik badi uljhan yeh bhi thi ki police ko poora yaqeen tha ki mere bayanat bekar hain ! un logon ne mujhe takliph pahunchane ke liye apna dimagh bhi tayyar kar liya tha kyonki ki eik bade kadve aur tikhe tevron ke saath mujhse yah kaha gaya tha kisuch qabool kar lene ka mujhe eik aakhri muaka aur diya ja raha hai magar meri be basi bhi ajeeb thi ki mere paas unhen kuch naya batane ke liye tha hi nahin ! zahir hai ki maine phir vahi kaha jo kahta chala aa raha tha ! such to yeh hai ki police bhi bahri dabaon aur khas tuar par siyasi dabaon ke karan uljhan mein thi kyonki sarkar vahan ke ilaqe ke votron ka shumar karke mamle mein eik khas rukh ke saath dilchaspi le rahi thi, phir eik pareshani yah bhi paida ho gayee thi ki vah samaji sansthaina jo aam khush hali aur tarakki ke naam par kazoron ke ghar baar ujadne ke sakht khilaph thi unki dalilon ki madad lekar sarkar virodhi siyasi partiyan bhi toofan uthane mein lag gayee thi, unka kahna tha ki eik ilaqe se gharibon ko uthakar doosre anjan aur ajnabi chhetron mein be saro samani kah halat yeh phenk diye jane se un gharibon ke ghar baar hi nahin chhinte balki eik vishes chhetr se mansoob unka pushtaini pesha bhi chhin liya jata hai ! virodhi dalon ke neta bhala vah muaqa kyon ganvate, hakat mein ate hi unhone pata laga liya ki ram dai ke saath kya zulm hua tha ! be dakhal logon ko muavza diye jane yaa nay ilaqe mein basay jane ke mamle mein dalalon ki khuli loot ki unhone kalai kholkar rakh di ! ram dai ke bure hall, nabina aur budhe chacha ko unhone tv par pesh kar diya jisne logon ko bataya ki vahi be dakhal kiye gaye log sarkar se muavza yaa zamin ka patta hasil kar pa rahe hain jo dalalon ko kamishan peshgi raqam ada karne ki dasha mein hain ! ram dai jis daldal ke kinare lakar dali gai thi vahan ki jhadian saaf kar mein uske aath baras ke bachche ko kuadyale sanp ne aisa dasa ki baghair daktar wale asptal se markar hi nikla par vah tab bhi himmat na hari magar jab daftaro ke chakkar lagati to dalal use gher lete aur afsaro ko khilane pilane ke liye kam se kam do hazar rupye ka mutalba karte ! usi nabina ka yeh kahna tha ki ram dai ko yah ummid thi ki vah apne hathon pakdi hui manju ki rassi bechkar shayad kuch mahino mein matlooba raqam jama bhi kar le !

Meri badqismati yah thi ki pooch tachh ki shuru manzil mein hi yeh baat itni pechdar ban gayee ki police ka mujhpar se shak hata hi nahin ! ab main bhi police ko kaise samjhata ki ram dai mere paas us samai rassi bechne ayee thi jab mujhe apni dunia mein hut aur aur andhera hi nazar araha tha ! mere liye unhe yah sajhana kathin tha ki jo pesha aikhtiyar karne ke liye maine kaisi kaisi pareshaniyon ke baad digri hasil ki thi aur jiske alava main koi aur doosra kam yaa pesha aikhtiyar karne ke layak hi na rah gaya tha ! mujhe nahin maloom ki yah kahavat tak sahi hai ki admi bus kisi khas lamhe aur aur kisi vishes dighi davao ki halat mein hi atm hattiya kar sakta hai, hamesha nahin baharhal is samai mujhe kuch bhi nahin dikhai de raha tha itna zaroor tha ki ram dai ke haath mein rassi dekhkar eik baar mujhe yeh zaroor laga ki kudrat bhi shayad khud meri madad kar rahi hai ! par maine uske haath mein jo rassi dekhi thi vah ziyada moti na thi to maine usse kaha ki mujhe zara mazboot rassi ki zaroorat hai ! yeh sunkar usne tezi se rassi ko eik istool ke sahare kamre ki chhat ke kunde meni bhi daal diya aur niche se uske dono siro ko bandh kar haatho se jhgatke dekar mujhe rassi ki mazbooti ka bharosa bhi dilana chaha magar maine ram dai se saaf kar diya ki rassi itni mazboot nahin jaisi mujhe zaroorat hai ! par ram dai kuch mayoosi ke saath mujhe har tarha se rassi ki mazbooti ka yaqeen dilati rahi magar aakhri baar use kharidne se mna karke aur usse picha chhudane ki khatir mein bahri kamre se uthkar andar bathrum mein chala gaya, thodi der baad yah sochkar bad dil bhi hua ki vah apni gharibi aur be sarosamani ka vasta dekar aur bachon vaghaira ke faqon ki dastan sunkar mujhe der tak pareshan karti rahegi !

Kaisi be basi hai ! pata nahin ke ram dai ke paas kuansi aisi taqat thi, ab sochta hoon to sharm aati hai ki shayad main khel ke maidan ka ziyada shatir khiladi tha kyonki ram dai to mujhe bus itna batane ke liye is kamre mein mera intezar kar rahi thi ki jis rassi ko maine apne liye kamzor samjha tha vo uske liye kitni mazboot thi ki uske poore bahne ko hava mein sambhale thi !
