Sarawati or Lakshmi?

The excavation project at the Lavale-daro village in Pune came to a grinding halt this week.

Some pieces of city history dating back to the 2011's were discovered buried underneath all the rubble that had sat untouched for centuries. While the debate rages on in news channels across India & abroad regarding the decline of a symbiotic dynasty, remnants of the soured relationship between Saraswati, the goddess of Knowledge and Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth has been found.

This finding has led to speculations on whether there was a masquerade in Goddess Saraswati attired as Lakshmi or was it Goddess Lakshmi dressed up as Saraswati that was installed in the hilltops of Lavale in the 21st Century.

It is almost proven by historians and archeologists that, Goddess Saraswati was given a backseat while Goddess Lakshmi held the primary position in the dais. The ignominy of being forgotten led to Saraswati leaving the area, which the event managers failed to notice or ignored her exit, which is yet to be confirmed.

Lavale Historic Preservation Society Vice President Krish Krishnan said, "They represent a very interesting example of the kind of burrowing work undertaken. These were hugely challenging engineering feats where digging a pit to keep Goddess Saraswati led to finding water. Later it was converted to a well, from where water was drawn at Rs 5/- per bucket, thus forgetting Saraswati and giving importance to Lakshmi"

Soon after Goddess Lakshmi also was forced to leave the premises due to global warning, says a press release. Water dried up and so did the dynasty. A sad end to a prospering community, lamented a junior historian, Mr. Ash Daya.

It is also confirmed by historians that, the 'Veena' in the hands of Goddess Sarawati at Lavale-daro was actually a Veena shaped piggy bank used by Goddess Lakshmi.

Flash News: The researcher from TNS is admitted to the nearby hospital with injuries. Initial reports say that injuries range from fingernail scratches, bruises on his hands and fingerprints on his cheeks. Adding insult to injury is the fact that next week, the researcher needs to go to the family court as SHE will be waiting. Since TNS has a survey to be done on the court premises next week, the researcher is happy that a ‘casual’ leave will be saved and hence money!!

Coaching Classes in digging one's own Grave

The PR student, DREAM-NIL SING, who woke up from a long coma after the third semester has decide to coach people in digging one’s own grave. The best part is that she does it without a pickaxe.

Mirror Majumdar continues

In a function organized by Rural Relations, while, Aadarniya Rezil was awarded with a coconut and a red rose, Mirror Majumdar continued numbering 1, 2, 3 and A,B,C’s much to the amusement of the poor souls. This gesture is seen as a prelude to entering ‘pure Hindi’ politics along with a certain ‘Question’ Mark in the Congress. Adraniya Rezzil has decided to use the red rose at least this V-day and thinks that this is a signal to fall in the web of an elusive, deceitful love. His fingers had been crossed from then and now are cramped.
