This is a common sentiment we all felt when Mangalore was "bandh" and we were shut down inside our homes.
Ever wondered how does it feel like when your own living quarters become prison? Welcome to A Curfewed city! For five days we were not allowed to go out side the hostel and for five days we suffered. The food supply started dwindling and for those of us who love outdoors than insides, claustrophobia set in. The walls seemed to shrink and we ran out of gossip and humor as there was'nt even the scope to look out. Now all is normal but for those of us not communally sensitive its time we realise there are issues bigger than us on the horizan that need immidiate focus. We cant cant live on like this and we cant take even a basic fundamental simplistic entity as freedom for granted!
