tin mahine tak sare shahar mean halachal rahi. roj adami sab kam-dhaandho chho dakar kachahari jate. bhikharin ko ek najar dekh lene ki abhilasha sabhi ko khianch le jati. mahilaoan ki bhi khasi sankhya ho jati thi. bhikharin jyoanhi lari se utarati, 'jay-jay' ki gagan-bhedi dhvani aur pushp-varsha hone lagati. renuka aur sukhada to kachahari ke uthane tak vahian rahatian.
jila maijishtret ne mukadame ko jaji mean bhej diya aur roj peshiyaan hone lagian. panch niyukt hue. idhar saphaee ke vakiloan ki ek fauj taiyar ki gee. mukadame ko saboot ki zaroorat n thi. aparadhiani ne aparadh svikar hi kar liya tha. bas, yahi nishchay karana tha ki jis vakt usane hatya ki us vakt hosh mean thi ya nahian. shahadatean kahati thian, vah hosh mean n thi. d aauktar kahata tha, usamean asthirachitt hone ke koee chihn nahian milate. d aauktar sahab bangali the. jis din vah bayan dekar nikale, unhean itani dhikkarean milian ki bechare ko ghar pahuanchana mushkil ho gaya. aise avasaroan par janata ki ichchha ke viroodvadv' kisi ne chooan kiya aur use ghikkar mili. janata atm-nishchay ke lie koee avasar nahian deti. usaka shasan kisi tarah ki narmi nahian karata.
renuka nagar ki rani bani huee thian. mukadame ki pairavi ka sara bhar unake oopar tha. shantikumar aur amarakant unaki dahini aur baeean bhujaean the. log a-akar khud chanda de jate. yahaan tak ki lala samarakant bhi gupt roop se sahayata kar rahe the.
ek din amarakant ne pathanin ko kachahari mean dekha. sakina bhi chadar odhe usake sath thi.
amarakant ne poochha-baithane ko kuchh laooan, mataji- aj apase bhi n raha gaya-
pathanin boli-maian to roj ati hooan beta, tumane mujhe n dekha hoga. yah l daki manati hi nahian.
amarakant ko roomal ki yad a gee, aur vah anurodh bhi yad aya, jo budhiya ne usase kiya tha par is halachal mean vah k aaulej tak to ja n pata tha, un batoan ka kahaan se khayal rakhata.
budhiya ne poochha-mukadame mean kya hoga beta- vah aurat chhootegi ki saza ho jayagi-
sakina usake aur samip a gee.
amar ne kaha-kuchh kah nahian sakata, mata. chhootane ki koee ummid nahian maloom hoti magar ham privi-kauansil tak jaeange.
pathanin boli-aise mamale mean bhi jaj saza kar de, to aandher hai.
amarakant ne avesh mean kaha-use saza mile chahe rihaee ho, par usane dikha diya ki bharat ki daridr auratean bhi apani abaroo ki kaise raksha kar sakati haian.
sakina ne poochha to amar se, par dadi ki taraph muanh karake-ham darshan kar sakeange ammaan-
amar ne tatparata se kaha-haan, darshan karane mean kya hai- chalo pathanin, maian tumhean apane ghar ki striyoan ke sath baitha dooan. vahaan tum un logoan se batean bhi kar sakogi.
pathanin boli-haan, beta, pahale hi din se yah l daki meri jan kha rahi hai. tumase mulakat hi n hoti thi ki poochhooan. kuchh roomal banae the. unase do rupaye mile. vah donoan rupaye tabhi se sanchit kar rakhe hue haian. chanda degi. n ho to tumhian le lo beta, auratoan ko do rupaye dete hue sharm aegi.
amarakant gariboan ka tyag dekhakar bhitar-hi-bhitar lajjit ho gaya. vah apane ko kuchh samajhane laga tha. jidhar nikal jata, janata usaka samman karati lekin in phakemashtoan ka yah utsah dekhakar usaki aankheanan khul geean. bola-chande ki to ab koee zaroorat nahian hai, ammaan rupaye ki kami nahian hai. tum ise kharch kar dalana. haan, chalo maian un logoan se tumhari mulakat kara dooan.
sakina ka utsah thanda p d gaya. sir jhukakar boli-jahaan gariboan ke rupaye nahian poochhe jate, vahaan gariboan ko kaun poochhega- vahaan jakar kya karogi, ammaan aegi to yahian se dekh lena.
amarakant jheanpata hua bola-nahian-nahian, aisi koee bat nahian hai ammaan, vahaan to ek paisa bhi hath phailakar liya jata hai. garib-amir ki koee bat nahian hai. maian khud garib hooan. maianne to sirph is khayal se kaha tha ki tumhean takaliph hogi.
donoan amarakant ke sath chalian, to raste mean pathanin ne dhire se kaha-maianne us din tumase ek bat kahi thi, beta shayad tum bhool ge.
amarakant ne sharamate hue kaha-nahian-nahian, mujhe yad hai. jara ajakal isi jhanjhat mean p da raha. jyoanhi idhar se phurasat mili, maian apane dostoan se zikr karooanga.
amarakant donoan striyoan ka renuka se parichay karake bahar nikala, to pro shanti kumar se muthabhe d huee. prophresar ne poochha-tum kahaan idhar-udhar ghoom rahe ho ji- kisi vakil ka pata nahian. mukadama pesh hone vala hai. aj mulajima ka bayan hoga, in vakiloan se khuda samajhe. jara-sa ijalas par kh de kya ho jate haian, goya sare sansar ko unaki upasana karani chahie. isase kahian achchha tha ki do-ek vakiloan ko mehanatane par rakh liya jata. murti ka kam begar samajha jata hai. itani bedili se pairavi ki ja rahi hai ki mera khoon khaulane lagata hai. nam sab chahate haian, kam koee nahian karana chahata.agar achchhi jirah hoti, to pulis ke sare gavah ukh d jate. par yah kaun karata- janate haian ki aj mulajima ka bayan hoga, phir bhi kisi ko fikr nahian.
amarakant ne kaha-maian ek-ek ko ittila de chuka . koee n ae to maian kya karooan-
shantikumar-mukadama khatam ho jae, to ek-ek ki khabar looanga.
itane mean lari ati dikhaee di. amarakant vakiloan ko ittala karane dau da. darshak charoan or se dau d-dau dakar adalat ke kamare mean a pahuanche. bhikharin lari se utari aur kataghare ke samane akar kh di ho gee. usake ate hi hajaroan ki aankheanan usaki or uth geean par un aankhoan mean ek bhi aisi n thi, jisamean shradhda n bhari ho. usake pile, murajhae hue mukh par atmagaurav ki aisi kaanti thi jo kutsit drishti ke uthane ke pahale hi nirash aur parabhoot karake usamean shradhda ko aropit kar deti thi.
jaj sahab saanvale rang ke nate, chakale, vrihadakar manushy the. unaki lanbi nak aur chhoti-chhoti aankheanan anayas hi muskarati maloom deti thian. pahale yah mahashay rasht' ke utsahi sevak the aur kaangres ke kisi praantiy jalase ke sabhapati ho chuke the par idhar tin sal se vah jaj ho ge the. atev ab rashhtriy aandolan se prithakh rahate the, par janane vale janate the ki vah ab bhi patroan mean nam badalakar apane rashhtriy vicharoan ka pratipadan karate rahate haian. unake vishay mean koee shatru bhi yah kahane ka sahas nahian kar sakata tha ki vah kisi dabav ya bhay se nyay-path se jau-bhar vichalit ho sakate haian. unaki yahi nyayaparata is samay bhikharin ki rihaee mean badhak ho rahi thi.
jaj sahab ne poochha-tumhara nam-
bhikharin ne kaha-bhikharin .
'tumhare pita ka nam?'
'pita ka nam batakar unhean kalankit nahian karana chahati.'
'ghar kahaan hai?'
bhikharin ne du:khi kanth se kaha-poochhakar kya kijiega- apako isase kya kam hai-
'tumhare oopar yah abhiyog hai ki tumane tin tarikh ko do aangrejoan ko chhuri se aisa jakhmi kiya ki donoan usi din mar ge. tumhean yah aparadh svikar hai?'
bhikharin ne nishank bhav se kaha-ap use aparadh kahate haian maian aparadh nahian samajhati.
'tum marana svikar karati ho?'
'gavahoan ne jhoothi gavahi tho de hi di hogi.'
'tumhean apane vishay mean kuchh kahana hai?'
bhikharin ne spasht svar mean kaha-mujhe kuchh nahian kahana hai. apane pranoan ko bachane ke lie maian koee saphaee nahian dena chahati. maian to yah sochakar prasann hooan ki jald jivan ka aant ho jaega. maian din, abala hooan. mujhe itana hi yad hai ki kee mahine pahale mera sarvasv loot liya gaya aur usake lut jane ke bad mera jina vritha hai. maian usi din mar chuki. maian apake samane kh di bol rahi hooan, par is deh mean atma nahian hai. use maian jianda nahian kahati, jo kisi ko apana muanh n dikha sake. mere itane bhaee-bahan vyarth mere lie itani dau d-dhoop aur kharch-varch kar rahe haian. kalankit hokar jine se mar jana kahian achchha hai. maian nyay nahian maangati, daya nahian maangati, maian keval pran-dand maangati hooan. haan, apane bhaee-bahanoan se itani vinati karooangi ki mere marane ke bad meri kaya ka niradar n karana, use chhoone se ghin mat karana, bhool jana ki vah kisi abhagin patita ki lash hai. jite-ji mujhe jo chiz nahian mil sakati, vah mujhe marane ke pichhe de dena. maian saf kahati hooan ki mujhe apane kie par ranj nahian hai, pachhatava nahian hai. eeshvar n kare ki meri kisi bahan ki aisi gati ho lekin ho jae to usake lie isake sivay koee rah nahian hai. ap sochate hoange, ab yah marane ke lie itani utavali hai, to ab tak jiti kyoan rahi- isaka karan maian apase kya bataooan- jab mujhe hosh aya aur apane samane do adamiyoan ko t dapate dekha, to maian dar gee. mujhe kuchh soojh hi n p da ki mujhe kya karana chahie. usake bad bhaiyoan-bahanoan ki sajjanata ne mujhe moh ke bandhan mean jak d diya, aur ab tak maian apane ko is dhaokhe mean dale hue hooan ki shayad mere mukh se kalikh chhoot gee aur ab mujhe bhi aur bahanoan ki tarah vishvas aur samman milega lekin man ki mithaee se kisi ka pet bhara hai- aj agar sarakar mujhe chho d bhi de, mere bhaee-bahanean mere gale mean phooloan ki mala bhi dal dean, mujh par asharphiyoan ki barakha bhi ki jae, to kya yahaan se maian apane ghar jaooangi- maian vivahita hooan. mera ek chhota-sa bachcha hai. kya maian us bachche ko apana kah sakati hooan- kya apane pati ko apana kah sakati hooan- kabhi nahian. bachcha mujhe dekhakar meri god ke lie hath phailaega par maian usake hathoan ko nicha kar dooangi aur aankhoan mean aansoo bhare muanh pherakar chali jaooangi. pati mujhe kshama bhi kar de. maianne usake sath koee vishvasaghat nahian kiya hai. mera man ab bhi usake charanoan se lipat jana chahata hai lekin maian usake samane tak nahian sakati. vah mujhe khianch bhi le jae, tab bhi maian us ghar mean paanv n rakhooangi. is vichar se maian apane man ko santosh nahian de sakati ki mere man mean pap n tha. is tarah to apane man ko vah samajhae, jise jine ki lalasa ho. mere hriday se yah bat nahian ja sakati ki too apavitr hai, achhoot hai. koee kuchh kahe, koee kuchh sune. adami ko jivan kyoan pyara hota hai- isalie nahian ki vah sukh bhogata hai. jo sada du:kh bhoga karate haian aur rotiyoan ko tarasate haian, unhean jivan kuchh kam pyara nahian hota. hamean jivan isalie pyara hota hai ki hamean apanoan ka prem aur doosaroan ka adar milata hai. jab in do mean se ek ke milane ki bhi asha nahian to jina vritha hai. apane mujhase ab bhi prem karean lekin vah daya hogi, prem nahian. doosare ab bhi mera adar karean lekin vah bhi daya hogi, adar nahian. vah adar aur prem ab mujhe marakar hi mil sakata hai. jivan mean to mere lie nianda, aur bahishkar ke siva kuchh nahian hai. yahaan meri jitani bahanean aur bhaee haian, un sabase maian yahi bhiksha maangati hooan ki us samaj ke ubar ke lie bhagavanh se prarthana karean, jisamean aise nar-pishach utpann hote haian.
bhikharin ka bayan samapt ho gaya. adalat ke us b de kamare mean sannata chhaya hua tha. keval do-char mahilaoan ki sisakiyoan ki avaz sunaee deti thi. mahilaoan ke mukh garv se chamak rahe the. purushoan ke mukh lajja se malin the. amarakant soch raha tha, goroan ko aisa dussahas isilie to hua ki vah apane ko is desh ka raja samajhate haian. shantikumar ne man-hi-man ek vyakhyan ki rachana kar dali thi, jisaka vishay tha-striyoan par purushoan ke atyachar. sukhada soch rahi thi-yah chhoot jati, to maian ise apane ghar mean rakhati aur isaki seva karati. renuka usake nam par ek stri-aushadhalay banavane ki kalpana kar rahi thi.
sukhada ke samip hi jaj sahab ki dharmapatni baithi huee thian. vah b di der se is mukadame ke sanbandha mean kuchh batachit karane ko utsuk ho rahi thian, par apane samip baithi huee striyoan ki avishvas-poorn drishti dekhakar-jisase ve unhean dekh rahi thian, unhean muanh kholane ka sahas n hota tha.
aant mean unase n raha gaya. sukhada se bolian-yah stri bilakul niraparadh hai.
sukhada ne kataksh kiya-jab jaj sahab bhi aisa samajhean.
'maian to aj unase saph-saph kah dooangi ki agar tumane is aurat ko saza di, to maian samajhooangi, tumane apane prabhuoan ka muanh dekha.'
sahasa jaj sahab ne kh de hokar panchoan ko tho de shabdoan mean is mukadame mean apani sammati dene ka adesh diya aur khud kuchh kagajoan ko ulatane-palatane lage. panch log pichhe vale kamare mean jakar tho di der batean karate rahe aur lautakar apani sammati de di. unake vichar mean abhiyukt niraparadh thi. jaj sahab jara-sa muskarae aur kal phaisala sunane ka vada karake uth kh de hue.
