My friend Raibbar

By ashish dimri on September 05,2006

You may wonder why am I supporting a non descript man. He may not be master of verse but his humanism has made me proud. Vipin happens to be a simple Garwhali.

Born in Garwhal Himalayas, he completed his studies at a local degree college. Then did a computer course and started his life in Delhi.

After much travails, he got a dignified job. Today he works with a leading economic research firm.

His poetry about Garwhal Himalayas may touch your heart. They may not of high quality but do express unseen pain of living away. They are about struggles and little joys.

Himalayan culture is very touchy. Here you emphasize on Himalayas, cultural ties, and society more than wealth or status.

Raibbar has written beautifully about Tehri dam. You may read how a well-settled town sacrificed its history for faraway place like Delhi.


He actively supports a small school in Tehri Garwhal and trying his best to raise funds for it. Nowadys his pet passion is to motivate others to sponsor cause.

You may wonder why am I praising him because he may not get appreciation by others.

One can sense how his good hard work will be manipulative by some very shrewd persons.  But as a fine gentleperson he brush it away, Bhai you always take a wrong turnĂ¢

Hope my cynicism does not become true
