I remember the slogans during assembly - "WE WANT HALF DAY, WE WANT HALF DAY" & in any occasion all of them clapping together. I still remember the zero period, It was fun we use to have a blast for one hour, all sports and practices, more than half class use to bunk. We use put some washing neel into a half lemon slice. It used to smell very bad, and put that stuff under the platform. Then all class use to start SSSSSHHHEEEEE….!!!!
And who will forget Narshiya – The Goli wala, out side the school. All use to trouble him a lot and he use to give bad words. He also had a scheme; if you give 5 empty bags of sweets you get one sweet free. The best seller was churan ki goli. Some book seller was also there who had a good business. The best selling small book was KARAMCHAND weekly issue. haaaaaaaaaa. It was bought and read loudly in all the classes.
Best Bunking places were - Toilet, Library, tank near the Hostel, Our Toilet was full of good stories and nice very artistic drawings. The Empire Theater opp the school use to be full after school on friday as Posters were changed for the new coming up English movies. The table tennis at Gym Hall was fun, there was only one TT table and huge crowd in break, all use play rounders with books instead of a TT racket.
We had sports at sub area ground for 5 days, that five days were fun. Naaaa not because of sports, do I need to tell … ok there was Liberty Theater just next to the ground.
I remember Uncle & Aunty's ka Vada Pav,Samosa's & Chutni Sandwich at the School Canteen... All use to kick the canteen window when he was not around.

The School Prayer Every Morning:-
Dear God,
Dear God,
Help us to do the things we should to be to others kind and good In All we do at work or play,
Oh my god. We look upon you At the beginning of this day, As our lord and father, So that you may Guide us away from all sinsGuide us, oh lord we praySo that we may, always be blessed
Oh my god. We look upon you At the beginning of this day, As our lord and father, So that you may Guide us away from all sinsGuide us, oh lord we praySo that we may, always be blessed
With good thoughts, good words,And good deedsBless our school, our homesParents, guardians, and teachersBless the souls, Of all the foundersAnd patrons, Of this schoolGuide the leaders, Of our nation And preserve and strengthen The union of our countryPS: I wonder if any one in the Boys school followed it.
The best thing was unity among all the Dastur Guys. They use to stand united againts all odds. I miss Dastur a lot, what to say. The Boys school masti, I wish we could rewind the time.
As a Ghazal of Jajit Singh says:
Ye Daulat Bhi Le Lo, Ye Shohrat Bhi Le Lo
Bhale Cheen Lo Mujhse Meri Jawaani
Magar Mujhko Lauta Do Bachchpan Ka Saawan
Wo Kaagaz Ki Kasthi Wo Baarish Ka Paani......
