TRIP TO HEAVEN TURNED INTO NIGHTMARE -- PART 3

Sept 8:
-------
Rain was stopped, it was warm sunny day, we thought every thing will be fine with in 2 days but what happens to the nature.Why it was behaving so rudely to Kashmir.Flood water was just 300m away from our hotel.Water level in Dal lake was increased so much that there was no difference in lake side road and the Dal lake. Shikara now started moving directly moving from Lake to road without any hurdle. Flood water has been entered into 2nd floor of building. Bus, trucks which were standing at the road side on previous day now disappears. Situation was just shit on 3rd day of Srinagar. Local people who were safe were started rescuing who were affected by flood. Who thought water level would rose up to 2nd floor of the building.There were so much tension in Srinagar. Water was ice cool and people were inside the water without food. Ohh god I cant
explain all these. I tried calling my mummy but what happened. No network in mobile.At that time entire Kashmir was disconnected from rest of India. Some Local people come to us and said with warm smile " All your family ok?? Are they all safe ??. We said yes they are fine. We were here to visit Kashmir. Local man apologized ohh no you were here to see beauty of  Kahmir and what you have seen now one Kashmiri even didnt see in his life time.After sometime we returned to our hotel room and started playing taash. In 2 days I and Ajay played so well that this time Dipu made us captain. While playing some noise was coming from outside. As if chopper is coming from far away. I looked from our hotel room window, 3 to 4 choppers came to rescue Kashmiris. Thanks to central government for taking so quick decision. Some Indian army boat came to rescue who were stuck inside water. Choppers started to do the same and also drop food packets from air. We continue are taash after that. After some time hotel owner came to call us for lunch. He prepared rice and dal for us. We took lunch  and come back and continue our tash. The biggest problem at that time was there ere no mobile network. If we would not call our parent they will think we all are in trouble. We all came outside in the the search of network.There was a small hill just 200m away from our hotel. We all climbed to that hill with the hope of network. Ajay tried a lot to get network in his mobile and Jyoti had postpaid connection, he also tried a lot. From 5 PM to 7 PM we were standing there.
No network. We started loosing hope. Then we thought we should come back. While coming back Ajay stopped us and told I got network in my mobile. It was bit relief moment at that time. We all called one by one and said we all are safe and taking food timely and visiting nearby places. With the relief feeling we returned back to hotel room and conitnue our Taash. At night 8:30 PM hotel owner called us for dinner. We took dinner same rice and dal and came back and continue playing
taash. So day 3 in Srinagar also wasted by playing taash only.
