Royal Green Apartments- A Flower Vase




Royal Green Apartments is like a flower vase which contain more than different set of 180 flowers.Each flower is unique in its color,shape and fragrance placed in a flower pot.

Set of these flowers emit their aroma with an unique fragrance in its atmosphere and we love this compare to any other place in the world.Where ever we go we get peace only when we are back to our FLOWER POT and/or our society.
Visualise the beauty of our campus as below:-

Imagine above as flying birds

Imagine as a map of India

Each flowers in this pot symbolises of a family who are though separately placed but in totality wore the same behaviour and characteristics.

In the event of crisis,they unite
to face any external threats jointly and recent pandemic covid-19 is no different and a live example of its habitants who exhibit an exemplary disciplines to remain locked in home in both phases of Lockdown 1 and Lockdown 2.

Compassion, gratitude and kindness are another characteristics of these set of flowers which they ensure to fulfill  the need of everyone who are attached with(eg maids,gardeners,Guards,sweepers and labourers).

In the recent event of deadly pandemic,they come forward thrice to donate for this cause to the poorest section of society.

More than 90% families are hiding themselves and staying in like a house arrest.
 Visitors just looking at closed door
     Doors are closed for visitors

They are afraid of Corona carriers and looking at everyone with suspicion.Sometimes I found them avoiding to interact even on mobile that results in communication gap amongst many families who were once together prior to lockdown.

All we need to know and be careful about is depicted below:-


Work from home is a new ways of  attending offices and going to be a reality in days to come where most of the works are going to be  accomplished from home itself.

Meetings are held online using various apps like ZOOM,SKYPE,Google Duo and Whatsapp video call etc
Same technique of video chat may be used to connect families and friends who are feeling alone and insecure in LOCKDOWN.We must often use of this technique to be in touch with your relatives and friends which neither violet social distancing nor have any fear of Covid 19 carriers.

Observing precautions to protect themselves are must and necessary but being in suspicion with everyone is harmful may damage the relationships.

We also never know about the families,if any, due loneliness are passing through the mental and emotional distress.
We need to identify such families and extend our support with observing all norms of social distancing as a need of hour.



We should also inquire about number of senior citizens living alone with us.We may assist provide and help in their daily needs such as medicine, groceries etc.Social distancing is the main worry for such people as they are more vulnerable to this virus and need our support.

To keep the flowers fresh and full of fragrances we need to water them regularly,let us put some efforts and achieve the freshness by refreshing our contacts,giving mental support to those who needed in this difficult period where it seems that we may have to gear up for LOCKDOWN 3.0 or may we have to adopt this lifestyle for long.

Let us remain strong and united to face any storm.

Life in Lock Down




 Covid-19 or Corona Virus is a global pandemic which was originated from Wuhan in china in the last weekend of November 2019.29L Corona +ve cases and over 2L deaths worldwide at present left us no choice but to remain at home in LOCKDOWN

Doctors and scientists are working day and night to find its medicine and/or vaccine but so far it is very early to say anything about its availability within months or so.

LOCKDOWN and SOCIAL DISTANCING are the only way to keep this virus away for the time being.

Initially it was weird to be at home for the day without any work,spent hours and hours together seating and sleeping in various different postures.After Few days of staying in home,we  found that it was no easy to pass time but soon we realises that this is a life time opportunity to spent valuable time in family.


Those working in offices are looking for their turn to come and curious to attend their offices.
Large number of Indians are stranded in foreign land and waiting to lockdown relaxed.Similarly migrant workers all around the metro cities in the country stuck up without job desperately wants to go back their respective states.


Life in lockdown has come for a change when:-

No visitors are visiting anyone's home,

Little or no interaction with people even in neighborhood as everyone see others in suspicion of Corona carriers,

People are spending maximum times online searching apps related to their need,

40 minutes walking on the track/road or workouts in Gim has been replaced by Yoga and various excercises which are being performed in room,
Life without maids for doing daily chores at home is not easy for houswives,
Video chatt is a new trend to meet near and dear online in virtual world,
Eating healthy home made foods are becoming more popular as restaurants are closed,
Walking on the streets/roads  without any work has come to a complete halt,

Online classes and training have been in trend now,

Face mask and social distancing seem part and parcel of life now onwards,
Driving is now a dream and cars are parked as if they have not been driven for couple of months.Going for a long drive is definitely a dream,
Taking a bite while driving,being on a call all the time and an instant coffee on the go have all suddenly come to an end.

Now we are happily settled at our home.No hurry, neither to earn nor to spend. Requirements of life reduced to get food 3  times a day.

No one is in hurry to go to their respective jobs,people are sleeping late at night and getting up late after 9am in morning. Usual timings of breakfast,lunch,Evening snacks and dinner have been changed by now with a delay of 2 to 3 hrs.As a result majority of our timings for going in bed shifted from 10pm to 12 in midnight.

Watching TV,spending time online ,reading books,online gaming and video chats are the new ways to pass time at home.

Life changed during this period of Lockdown and may be a new fashion trend with face mask will be seen very soon.


The visuals of mankind with face mask and social Distancing may be seen for decades to come in future.

Life may not be same as it was before COVID-19.

LOCKDOWN 1.0
(March 25 to April 14,2020)

India recorded 10300 cases with 340 death.Worldwide deaths has exceed 120,000, according to data collected by the ECDC Centre in Sweden. More than 1,930,000 people have been infected, while some 450,000 have recovered.
.
The Slogan which is used worldwide during this pandemic is
STAY HOME STAY SAFE,
QUARANTINE is a most common word being used during this period.

Mask and Staying Home with a Social Distancing of Minimum of approximately 4 to 6 feet are the main instruments being used to keep the virous away.


The most effective medicine so far used is Hydroxychloquine Sulphate  or Plaquenil tablets.



Lockdown 1.0 and in continuation are one of the important event of this world after a pandemic history in past way back to 100 years ago in 1918 whereby more than 50million people died affecting 500millions world's population due SPANISH FLU(January 1918 to December 1920)

CORONA  or COVID 19(New nomenclature by WHO)previously called as Chinese virus was still under investigation about from where and how it spread?It has become deadly when by the end of LOCKDOWN 1.0 it spreads globally.The worst affected countries after Lockdown1.0 are USA,SPAIN & ITLY.

It was previously thought that it spreads through a Bat and from wet market of WUHAN in china hence initially it was also known as WUHAN VIRUS.
                 Corona Virus
More than 75% population of world is seating idle at home in this Lockdown and is strange to this world where at a time people were so busy that they do not had time to breathe are at home seating or sleeping quietly.

This is the time for nature to rejuvenate and reset herself as the Air quality index is all time low,no vehicles on the roads,sky is pure blue,stars are easily visible ,and Himalayan range are  seen from cities more than 250 km away.Roads are carpeted by full of dry leaves and flower's petals as no or very very few vehicles are plying on the roads.

Nature find its time to beautify herself.
Optimum use of resources for survival results in low wastages now and as a by-product humanity is blessed with clean,pure and pollution free environment. Sky is Blue and Shining Stars are visible so clearly from earth which was not possible prior to this event.
Rivers clean themselves for which millions and millions dollar were invested in past on this project but was of no use.
People who use to think that world is rolling because of him very soon realises their worth and their inventions. The proverbs of "Life goes on" is proved true in this Lockdown.

A great relief to the Birds and animals of this planet.

Street dogs and all other pets are amazed to see no man in man's zone and moving freely without fear of man.

The dirtiest area of the city is also looking beautiful in absence of Noise, vehicles and more importantly the presence of insane crowd of men and women.

Staying home without any fear of getting up early morning and going office/school,found no job but to  seating home idle,nothing to do except sleeping,seating in various other postures and eating different home made dishes in very beginning of Lockdown.Slowly and slowly dishes started disappearing as the lockdown period is moving further in next phase probably of LOCKDOWN 2.0.

A complete peace in the atmosphere which only gets disturbed by the birds chirping and the only visitors to our home are new birds that too are visiting to our Balcony.

Dreawing room visitors are out of sight now.

They are not being welcomed and in fact no visitors are coming. Each individual are afraid of other when in sight thinking he/she might be a potential carrier of Corona.

Life has changed a lot in last passing each day of Lockdown and by the end of Lockdown1.0.

we understood the new laws of Life  like NAMASTE is being preferred against HAND SHAKE,
Use of SANITIZERS for sanitizing Hands and washing hands frequently,MASKING FACE is must while Sneezing in public is a Big NO,Giving importance to homemade food over Restaurant and so on.

World will be totally different by the time we get rid of this pandemic (may be by)December 2020 whose effects will be felt in another couple of years (may be)by by 2023 while in recovery mode.

A huge population of many countries of Asia,Europe and USA are expected to slip down from Upper middle to lower and Lower to poor and poverty. A large percentage of youth worldwide will be jobless and will be an uphill task for nationwide leaderships to maintain a balance of economical as well as moral boosting of unemployed youths who will be passing through a difficult phase of their lives of this century.

This is the time to test the vision,determination and all the qualities of worldwide leaders to lead the citizens of their respective country from DARKNESS of COVID-19 to the LIGHT OF LIFE.

LIFE WILL DEFINITELY BE DIFFERENT AFTER THIS PANDEMIC GETS OVER.

Sneezing in public will no more be a fun now,

SANITIZERS and MASK will be added to our monthly cosmetic purchase now onwards like we go for Toothpaste,Brush,shavig kit etc,

Work from Home will be the next mode of office work,


People's ways of greetings will change,


Social distancing will be a common sights,


Class room study may change largely to the Internet based study,


Global business trips will be lowered and video based board meetings will takeover one to one meeting  affecting transport industry,


Slump in Global tourism is obvious 


Mass exodus of labourers will  subsequently increase the day to day maintenance and further increase the cost of life in urban areas,


May be Home delivery of Food will be common than visiting restaurant.
