[Babab96]

Me_ Salman kaa naam bhi case se bahar ho gya?

Dadaji_ Uske khilaf to pahle se direct proof nhi tha.

Pathan Transport kaa truck site per gya tha, lakin company ne kaha ki booking ak private broker ne ki thi.

Wo broker Javed Ansari nikla.

security officer jab Javed ko dhundne pahuchi, wo sahar chhod chuka tha.

Uska office khali tha.

Files gayab thi.

Aur address fake nikla.

Aftab_ Ye pura network hai.

Abhay_ Haa.

Aftab_ Salman, Michael, Mahadev, Javed… sab connected hai.

Abhay_ Sabko ak sath connect karne wala proof kaha hai?

Aftab_ Tumhe har chij court jesa proof chahiye.

Abhay_ Kyunki kal hume court me hi khada hona padega.

Aftab_ Ak din proof milte-milte bahut der ho jayegi.

Abhay_ Isliye records safe rakho.

Tumhare pita ne sabotage case ki sari documents confidential file me rakhwa di.

File kaa naam diya gya—

“Project Suraksha.”

Isme Rafiq kaa pahla statement, badla hua statement, Pathan Transport ki delivery slip, Mahadev ke cousin ke godown ki details aur Javed Ansari ki information rakhi gyi.

Nimrit ko bhi puri baat batayi gyi.

Usne file ki copies alag-alag jagah safe rakhne ki salah di.

Nimrit_ Original office me rakhiye.

Ak copy ghar per.

Aur ak sealed copy kisi trusted lawyer ke paas.

Abhay_ Itni security ak file ke liye?

Nimrit_ Ye bus file nhi hai.

Kisi ne aapke workers ko marne ki koshish ki hai.

Kal evidence disappear ho sakta hai.

Aftab_ Mene bhi yahi kaha tha.

Abhay_ Aajkal sab mujhe hi careless samajhte hai.

Nimrit_ Kyunki aap hai.

Abhay_ Me 21 saal ki age me business aur politics sambhal rha hu.

Nimrit_ Isliye kabhi-kabhi bhool jate hai ki aap insaan bhi hai.

Aftab_ Me chalta hu.

Hone wale pati-patni ki behas me partner ko nhi fasna chahiye.

Abhay_ Tumne hi baat shuru ki thi.

Aftab_ Aur ab me samajhdari dikha rha hu.

Me_ Dadu, kyaa aapko Mahadev per shak tha?

Dadaji_ Mujhe uski bato me kuchh kami lagti thi.

Wo apni safai dene me bahut jyada jaldi kar rha tha.

Lakin mere paas bhi proof nhi tha.

Manjot ko politics aur investigation se jyada tumhare pita ki shaadi ki chinta thi.

Manjot_ security officer apna kaam karegi.

Tum log shaadi ki date decide karo.

Abhay_ Maa, abhi itna sab chal rha hai.

Manjot_ Isi liye shaadi jaldi honi chahiye.

Nimrit tere sath hogi to kam se kam koi tujhe samjhane wala rahega.

Baldev_ Abhi tak hum kyaa kar rhe hai?

Manjot_ Aap bus serious chehra bana kar advice dete ho.

Nimrit isse baat manwa leti hai.

Abhay_ Me sabki baat sunta hu.

Manjot_ Sunta sabki hai, karta apni hai.

Nimrit ki probation training kaa schedule aa chuka tha.

Use 1990 ke shuru ke mahino me district training per jana tha.

Dono pariwar chahte the ki training ke ak major phase se pahle shaadi ho jaye ya fir uske baad available leave me.

Nimrit ke pitaji practical aadmi the.

Nimrit ke Pitaji_ Shaadi ko jyada delay karne kaa koi reason nhi hai.

Rishta dono ko manjur hai.

Lakin ceremony simple aur planned honi chahiye.

Manjot_ Simple kyaa hota hai?

Hamare ghar ki ak hi shaadi hai.

Baldev_ Abhi se guest list mat banana.

Manjot_ Mene bana li hai.

Abhay_ Kitne log?

Manjot_ Bus close family aur friends.

Baldev_ Number batao.

Manjot_ Lagbhag 700.

Abhay_ Maa, ye close family hai?

Manjot_ Hamara pariwar chhota nhi hai.

Nimrit ki mosi aur Manjot shaadi ki planning me lag gyi.

Dono kaa ak dusre ke ghar aana-jana badh gya.

Nimrit jab bhi training se ak-do din ke liye wapas aati, Manjot use jewellery, dresses aur rasmo ke bare me batati.

Nimrit_ Maa, mujhe bahut heavy wedding nhi chahiye.

Manjot_ Heavy wedding nhi hogi.

Nimrit_ Aapne 700 logo ki list banayi hai.

Manjot_ Ab 800 ho gye hai.

Nimrit_ Maa…

Manjot_ Theek hai.

Guest list Baldev aur tumhare papa decide karenge.

Me tumhare kapde decide karungi.

Nimrit_ Mujhe simple kapde chahiye.

Manjot_ Abhay bhi yahi kahta hai.

Dono kaa fashion sense kharab hai.

Abhay_ Mera naam kyun aa rha hai?

Manjot_ Kyunki ye tumhari shaadi bhi hai.

Me_ Shaadi kis tarah hone wali thi?

Papa Thakur the aur Dadi Sikh family se thi.

Maa kaa pariwar?

Dadaji_ Nimrit kaa pariwar Punjabi background kaa tha, lakin kai saalo se uss sahar me business karta tha.

Dono pariwar ne decide kia ki shaadi me dono taraf ki family traditions kaa samman hoga.

Koi bhi rasm dusre per force nhi ki jayegi.

Tumhare pita ko rasmo se jyada Nimrit ki leave ki tension thi.

Abhay_ Shaadi ke baad kitne din ki leave milegi?

Nimrit_ 15 din.

Abhay_ Bus?

Nimrit_ Probation chal rhi hai.

Abhay_ Government ko pata nhi hai kyaa ki meri shaadi hai?

Nimrit_ Government aapke according nhi chalti.

Abhay_ Dharmchand se bolkar Assembly me issue uthwa du?

Nimrit_ Aisa kia to shaadi se pahle hi rishta cancel.

Abhay_ Me mazak kar rha tha.

Nimrit_ Aap politics me hai.

Aapka mazak bhi record per ja sakta hai.

Dono ki shaadi ki date 1990 ke middle se pahle rakhne kaa decision hua.

Lakin exact date fix hone se pahle Nimrit ko district training ke liye ak remote area me jana pada.

Waha se telephone connection bahut difficult tha.

Letters pahuchne me bhi kai din lagte the.

Isi dauran Mahadev Deshmukh dobara Dharmchand ke paas pahucha.

Mahadev_ Dharmchand ji, mere sath galat ho rha hai.

Dharmchand_ Investigation chal rhi hai.

Mahadev_ Investigation nhi, mujhe political circle se bahar kia ja rha hai.

Dharmchand_ Abhay ne sirf temporary distance rakha hai.

Mahadev_ Party workers me message ja rha hai ki me gaddar hu.

Dharmchand_ Kisi ne publicly aisa nhi kaha.

Mahadev_ Publicly kehne ki jarurat nhi hoti.

Abhay jis aadmi se dur ho jaye, log khud samajh jate hai.

Dharmchand_ Tum innocent ho to cooperate karo.

Mahadev_ Me cooperate kar rha hu.

Lakin ak criminal ke statement ke base per meri saalo ki loyalty per sawal uthaya gya.

Dharmchand_ Rafiq ne statement badal diya hai.

Mahadev_ Fir bhi Abhay ne mujhe wapas nhi bulaya.

Dharmchand_ Use time do.

Mahadev kaa chehra sakht ho gya.

Mahadev_ Abhay ko lagta hai party sirf uske dimag se chalti hai.

Dharmchand_ Ye baat kaha se aa gyi?

Mahadev_ Election me ground per workers mene sambhale the.

Local leaders se meeting mene karwayi thi.

Lakin credit pura Abhay le gya.

Dharmchand_ Abhay ne kabhi credit nhi manga.

Mahadev_ Mangne ki jarurat hi nhi padti.

Aap har jagah uska naam lete ho.

Dharmchand_ Kyunki strategy uski thi.

Mahadev_ Aur me kyaa tha?

Bus ak worker?

Dharmchand ne pahli baar Mahadev ke andar kaa gussa clearly dekha.

Dharmchand_ Tumhe problem investigation se hai ya Abhay se?

Mahadev_ Mujhe apni beizzati se problem hai.

Dharmchand_ To apna naam clear hone do.

Mahadev_ Naam court clear karega.

Lakin respect kon wapas karega?

Mahadev office se chala gya.

Dharmchand ne usi din tumhare pita ko phone kia.

Dharmchand_ Mahadev kaa behaviour change ho rha hai.

Abhay_ Gusse me hai.

Dharmchand_ Sirf gussa nhi.

Use lagta hai tumne uska credit le lia.

Abhay_ Mene kabhi uska credit nhi lia.

Dharmchand_ Sach aur feeling alag chije hoti hai.

Use feel hota hai ki use side kia gya.

Abhay_ Jab tak investigation clear nhi hoti, me use internal meetings me nhi la sakta.

Dharmchand_ Me tumhe use wapas lane ko nhi kah rha.

Bus careful raho.

Abhay_ Tumhe lagta hai wo sach me involved hai?

Dharmchand_ Mujhe nhi pata.

Lakin ab wo tumse loyal hai ya nhi… ye bhi nhi pata.

Me_ Kyaa Mahadev Salman se mil gya tha?

Dadaji_ Ak raat wo Michael D’Souza ke hotel gya tha.

Lakin ye baat tumhare pita ko uss samay pata nhi thi.

Michael hotel ke private office me baitha tha.

Mahadev ko andar laya gya.

Michael_ Aaiye Deshmukh sahab.

Mahadev_ Mene kaha tha mujhe yaha publicly mat bulana.

Michael_ Private entrance se aaye hai.

Koi nhi dekhega.

Mahadev_ Rafiq ne mera naam kyun lia?

Michael_ Ye sawal aapko Salman se puchna chahiye.

Mahadev_ Salman kaha hai?

Michael_ Aaj nhi aayega.

Mahadev_ Plan ye nhi tha.

Michael_ Plan me changes hote rahte hai.

Mahadev_ Mene sirf site kaa schedule diya tha.

Shed girane ya workers ko hurt karne ki baat nhi huyi thi.

Michael_ Aapne information di.

Use kese use karna hai, ye dusre logo kaa decision tha.

Mahadev_ Abhay ko lagta hai mene uske sath gaddari ki.

Michael_ Kyaa aapne nhi ki?

Mahadev_ Mene bus use thoda pressure dene ke liye help ki thi.

Wo har decision khud leta hai.

Ground workers ko kuchh samajhta hi nhi.

Michael_ To fir problem kyaa hai?

Mahadev_ Problem ye hai ki Rafiq kaa naam mujh tak kese aaya?

Michael_ Rafiq weak nikla.

Mahadev_ Ya jaan-bujhkar mera naam uske muh me dala gya.

Michael muskuraya.

Michael_ Aap bahut sochte hai.

Mahadev_ Me kisi kaa bali kaa bakra nhi banunga.

Michael_ Tab apna role achchi tarah nibhaiye.

Mahadev_ Ab me kuchh nhi karunga.

Michael_ Ye decision aapko pahle lena chahiye tha.

Mahadev_ Aap mujhe threaten kar rhe ho?

Michael_ Nhi.

Bus yaad dila rha hu ki party office ki stamp, godown aur project schedule… tino kaa connection aapse hai.

Mahadev kaa chehra utar gya.

Michael_ Abhay ne abhi sirf distance rakha hai.

Agar use sari sachchai pata chali, to wo aapko kanun ke hawale kar dega.

Mahadev_ Aap chahte kyaa ho?

Michael_ Abhi kuchh nhi.

Bus Rajput Construction aur Dharmchand ke political office ki information dete rahiye.

Mahadev_ Shaadi ke baad Abhay kaa focus wese bhi change ho jayega.

Michael_ Aap Nimrit ko kam samajh rhe hai.

Wo uska focus change nhi karegi.

Wo use aur disciplined karegi.

Mahadev_ Fir?

Michael_ Fir hume dono ko ak dusre ke against use karne kaa moka dhundna hoga.

Me_ To Mahadev sach me gaddar tha!

Dadaji_ Haa, usne project kaa schedule leak kia tha.

Lakin shed girakar workers ko marne kaa plan shayad usne nhi banaya tha.

Usne dushmano ko bus darwaja khola.

Andar aakar unhone kyaa kia, wo uske control me nhi tha.

Yahi gaddari kaa sach hai, Jay.

Kai baar insaan sochta hai ki wo bus chhoti si information de rha hai.

Lakin uski di huyi information kisi ki jaan bhi le sakti hai.

Me_ Papa ko ye sab kab pata chala?

Dadaji_ Bahut baad me.

Uss samay tumhare pita shaadi aur project dono sambhal rhe the.

Nimrit remote district training per thi.

Ak din uska letter aaya.

Usne likha—

“Yaha ak village me 3 din se electricity nhi thi.

File me supply normal likhi thi.

Jab khud inspection kia to pata chala transformer 2 mahine se kharab hai.

Officers numbers theek rakhte hai, ground reality nhi.

Tum sahi kahte the—office me baithkar administration nhi hota.”

Tumhare pita ne jawab likha—

“Me hamesha sahi hota hu.

Shaadi ke baad ye baat yaad rakhiyega.”

Nimrit kaa jawab aaya—

“Shaadi ke baad sabse pahle isi misunderstanding kaa treatment karungi.”

Uske letters se tumhare pita kaa tension kam hota tha.

Lakin ak raat unhe unknown phone call aaya.

Caller_ Kunwar sahab, shaadi ki taiyari achchi chal rhi hai?

Abhay_ Kon?

Caller_ Naam important nhi hai.

Important ye hai ki project site kaa accident ak warning thi.

Abhay_ Kiski warning?

Caller_ Housing project chhod dijiye.

Politics me Dharmchand ke piche se kaam karna band kijiye.

Aur apni hone wali wife ko government service tak hi rakhiye.

Abhay_ Nimrit kaa naam dobara lia to phone per nhi, samne baat hogi.

Caller_ Gussa sehat ke liye achcha nhi hota.

Abhay_ Samne aakar meri sehat ki chinta karo.

Caller_ Shaadi se pahle vidhwa jesi bate achchi nhi lagti.

Phone cut ho gya.

Me_ Caller ne maa ko harm karne ki dhamki di?

Dadaji_ Indirectly.

Tumhare pita kaa gussa control se bahar hone laga.

Unhone receiver itni jor se rakha ki wo toot gya.

Aftab usi room me tha.

Aftab_ Kyaa kaha?

Abhay_ Nimrit kaa naam lia.

Aftab_ Kon tha?

Abhay_ Aawaj badli huyi thi.

Aftab_ security officer ko inform karte hai.

Abhay_ Haa.

Tumhare pita ne iss baar koi baat chhupayi nhi.

Unhone security officer complaint ki aur Nimrit ke pitaji ko bhi inform kia.

Lakin Nimrit ko turant batane me unhe hesitation hua.

Aftab_ Promise yaad hai?

Abhay_ Wo remote training per hai.

Waha unnecessary panic hoga.

Aftab_ Agar use kisi aur se pata chala to jyada bura hoga.

Abhay ne usi raat Nimrit ko detailed letter likha.

Letter pahuchne me 5 din lage.

Nimrit ne letter padhte hi district office se trunk call book kia.

Connection raat ko mila.

Nimrit_ Aap theek hai?

Abhay_ Haa.

Nimrit_ Ghar per sab theek hai?

Abhay_ Haa.

Nimrit_ Security?

Abhay_ Badha di hai.

Nimrit_ security officer complaint?

Abhay_ Kar di.

Nimrit_ Caller ne mera naam kyun lia?

Abhay_ Wo mujhe darana chahta hai.

Nimrit_ Kyaa aap dare?

Abhay_ Gussa aaya.

Nimrit_ Mene pucha dare?

Tumhare pita kuchh pal chup rhe.

Abhay_ Haa.

Nimrit_ Apne liye?

Abhay_ Aapke liye.

Nimrit ki aawaj soft ho gyi.

Nimrit_ Me safe hu.

Abhay_ Abhi.

Nimrit_ Aap mujhe training chhodkar wapas aane ko nhi kahenge.

Abhay_ Me aisa nhi kahunga.

Nimrit_ Aur project bhi nhi chhodenge.

Abhay_ Aapko kese pata me ye soch rha tha?

Nimrit_ Kyunki dhamki kaa purpose wahi hai.

Agar aap project chhod denge, to wo samjhenge ki mera naam lekar aapko control kia ja sakta hai.

Abhay_ Me aapko risk me nhi dal sakta.

Nimrit_ Me bhi aapko dar ke according jeete hue nhi dekh sakti.

Security badhaiye.

Evidence collect kijiye.

Lakin piche mat hatiye.

Abhay_ Aapko kuchh ho gya to?

Nimrit_ Me officer banne ja rhi hu, Abhay.

Future me mujhe bhi threats mil sakte hai.

Kyaa har threat per me duty chhod dungi?

Abhay_ Nhi.

Nimrit_ Fir aap bhi nhi chhodenge.

Dono kuchh pal chup rhe.

Nimrit_ Ak baat promise kijiye.

Abhay_ Kyaa?

Nimrit_ Gusse me kisi per bina proof attack nhi karenge.

Abhay_ Promise.

Abhay_ Aap bhi ak promise kijiye.

Nimrit_ Haa.

Abhay_ Koi unknown aadmi mile, call aaye ya suspicious chij lage to turant inform karengi.

Nimrit_ Promise.

Me_ Kyaa uss phone call kaa connection Salman se tha?

Dadaji_ Telephone exchange se number trace karne ki koshish huyi.

Call ak public booth se kia gya tha.

Booth owner ne caller ko clearly nhi dekha tha.

Usne bus itna bataya ki aadmi medium height kaa tha aur Marathi accent me bol rha tha.

Me_ Mahadev?

Dadaji_ Shak usper gya.

Lakin phone booth owner use identify nhi kar saka.

Mahadev ne uss din apni presence ak political meeting me dikhayi.

Meeting register me uska signature tha.

Baad me pata chala ki wo meeting se lagbhag aadhe ghante ke liye gayab tha.

Lakin phir wahi baat—

Proof nhi tha.

Tumhare pita ne Mahadev ko direct confront nhi kia.

Wo bus usper najar rakhne lage.

1990 kaa saal shuru ho chuka tha.

Shaadi ki final date fix karne ke liye dono pariwar mile.

Nimrit ko training se limited leave mil sakti thi.

Aakhir shaadi ki date 1990 ke madhya se pahle rakhi gyi.

Manjot ne pura ghar sajwane kaa kaam shuru kar dia.

Tumhare pita ke kamre ki safai aur furniture change hone laga.

Abhay_ Mera table kaha gya?

Manjot_ Bahar.

Abhay_ Kyun?

Manjot_ Ye bedroom hai, office nhi.

Abhay_ Me yahi kaam karta hu.

Manjot_ Shaadi ke baad office me kaam karna.

Abhay_ Nimrit bhi files padhegi.

Manjot_ Uske liye naya study room taiyar ho rha hai.

Abhay_ Mere liye?

Manjot_ Tum uske study room me permission lekar jana.

Abhay_ Ye mera ghar hai.

Manjot_ Shaadi ke baad ye Nimrit kaa ghar hoga.

Tum adjust kar lena.

Me_ Dadi hamesha papa ki side leti thi ya maa ki?

Dadaji_ Shaadi se pahle tumhare pita ki.

Nimrit ke aane ke baad jyadatar Nimrit ki.

Manjot khud kehti thi—

Manjot_ Beta to mera pahle se hai.

Ab beti mili hai, uski side lungi.

Shaadi ki preparations ke bich ak aur important ghatna huyi.

Dharmchand Patel ko party ne youth political committee me bada role dene kaa decision lia.

Iska credit tumhare pita ki strategy aur government housing project ki popularity ko mila.

Dharmchand_ Party leadership chahti hai ki me State Capital me jyada active rahu.

Abhay_ Achchi baat hai.

Dharmchand_ Lakin constituency kon sambhalega?

Abhay_ Me hu.

Dharmchand_ Tumhari shaadi hone wali hai.

Abhay_ Shaadi ke baad politics band nhi hoti.

Dharmchand_ Nimrit maan jayegi?

Abhay_ Wo mujhe politics chhodne ko nhi kahegi.

Dharmchand_ Tum lucky ho.

Abhay_ Mujhe pata hai.

Mahadev ko jab Dharmchand ke naye role ki khabar mili, uska gussa aur badh gya.

Use ummid thi ki Dharmchand use district organization me important post dega.

Lakin Dharmchand ne investigation clear hone tak uska naam rok diya.

Mahadev seedha Salman Pathan ke paas gya.

Salman_ Ab aaye ho mere paas?

Mahadev_ Me kisi kaa aadmi bankar nhi aaya.

Salman_ Abhay kaa aadmi bankar gye the.

Result dekh lia?

Mahadev_ Usne meri loyalty per shak kia.

Salman_ Kyunki tum pakde gye.

Mahadev_ Rafiq ne mera naam kyun lia?

Salman_ Michael se pucho.

Mahadev_ Tum dono mujhe use kar rhe ho.

Salman_ Politics me har aadmi kisi ko use karta hai.

Abhay ne Dharmchand ko use kia.

Dharmchand ne tumhe.

Tumne Rafiq ko.

Ab problem kyaa hai?

Mahadev_ Me Abhay ko barbaad karna nhi chahta tha.

Bus use samjhana chahta tha ki ground workers ke bina wo kuchh nhi.

Salman_ Ab bahut late ho chuka hai.

Mahadev_ Kyaa chahte ho?

Salman_ Dharmchand State Capital jayega.

Constituency Abhay sambhalega.

Hume uski political planning aur housing project ki internal details chahiye.

Mahadev_ Aur badle me?

Salman_ Jab Abhay girega, district organization tumhare paas hoga.

Mahadev_ Aur agar wo nhi gira?

Salman_ Har aadmi girta hai.

Bus sahi jagah dhakka dena padta hai.

Me_ Mahadev ne deal accept kar li?

Dadaji_ Usne turant haa nhi kahi.

Lakin wo waha se mana karke bhi nhi gya.

Aur kai baar silence hi agreement hota hai.

Shaadi se lagbhag ak mahina pahle Nimrit training se wapas aayi.

Iss baar uske wapas aane kaa reason sirf shaadi ki preparation nhi tha.

Uski probation kaa next phase complete ho chuka tha aur use kuchh hafto ki leave mili thi.

Manjot ne use ghar bulakar wedding clothes dikhaye.

Nimrit ne ak simple outfit choose kia.

Manjot_ Ye bahut simple hai.

Nimrit_ Mujhe yahi pasand hai.

Manjot_ Shaadi roj thodi hoti hai.

Nimrit_ Heavy kapdo me me chal nhi paungi.

Abhay_ Me simple wale ke favor me hu.

Manjot_ Tumse kisi ne pucha?

Abhay_ Shaadi meri bhi hai.

Manjot_ Tum bus time per pahuch jana.

Nimrit hans padi.

Wedding preparations ke bich tumhare pita aur Nimrit ko ak dusre ke sath akela samay kam milta tha.

Ak sham dono farmhouse ke garden me mile.

Nimrit_ Shaadi ke baad sab badal jayega naa?

Abhay_ Kyaa?

Nimrit_ Abhi hum letters likhte hai, milne kaa intejar karte hai.

Shaadi ke baad responsibilities badhengi.

Meri posting hogi.

Aapka business aur politics.

Abhay_ Bate kam ho sakti hai.

Pyar nhi.

Nimrit_ Aapko har serious sawal kaa ready answer kese mil jata hai?

Abhay_ Pichle ak saal se aapke questions ki practice kar rha hu.

Nimrit_ Me serious hu.

Abhay_ Me bhi.

Ho sakta hai hume alag cities me rehna pade.

Ho sakta hai ak dusre ke liye time kam ho.

Lakin hamne relation easy life ke liye start nhi kia tha.
