Demand and Supply

Such an unorthodox and well detailed subject to pick up? none of those which I said earlier that I have been thinking about. Actually title is somewhat deceptive. Though it is very much related to my experiences only,  'marital experiences or issues' to be more precise.

What demand and supply has to do with my life? Simply put, it is the only thing now a days to settle out the whole issue. In order to make you understand, I take you to my trips to Gwalior and Bhopal. 

As per the direction of Supreme Court of India (yes, Nimita and her brother have taken our matter to SC), we went to Gwalior. There is a Mediation Center of M P High Court there in Gwalior.

At first visit, Honorable Mediator gave us long enough time (more than 4 hours) and tried to discuss in various ways. He made us to talk to each other too, which obviously was destroyed completely by Nimita's dear Mammi, Bimla Nema and her Elder son, Abhay Nema who is working in Nai Duniya newspaper Indore. Nimita's family is trying way too hard to keep us two at non-talking terms like we are enemies and not husband-wife... and when I want to refuse that relationship on legal basis, they just don't accept it. kinda funny but weird.

Later these two people put across a whooping demand of Rs. 50 Lacs, yes you read it rightly as Rs. FIFTY LACS for 'Settlement'. Interestingly or rather as usual Nimita never had any personal opinion or say. Whole gimmick was being played only by Bimla and Abhay. If your jaw dropped by this amount than you sure will be shaken to know that she has demanded Rs. 2 Crores, yes RS. TWO CRORES, in different cases. (I still don't know if I can ever see that kinda sum in my life) So according to them, they have done a BIG favor to me by coming down to mere Rs. 50 Lacs.

Now poor me, I was overwhelmed by the big amount and offered myself as an object in market and humbly requested to Honorable Mediator to sell me at the highest possible price and give all that to greedy people. Alas, he refused to do so.

So the supply did not meet the demand of mere Rs. FIFTY LACS. So both the parties were given time of 2-3 weeks to rethink their position and to make a new point of demand of supply offers to see if mutual agreement is possible. 

Surprisingly in next meeting, which was the last (in front of Mediator) too, The demand came down whole 10% and the new point, (with all great adjustments and pain from 'their' side) was set to Rs. 45 LACS. what a relief ...!!! Unfortunately, even that was out of reach for me. So sadly the meeting was called as a failure and the matter was sent back to honorable SC again.

Demand and Supply did not meet, so no deal.

Later, when I went to Bhopal for the hearing of 498a case and other cases, her other brother, Anshuman, who is a lawyer in Bhopal and obviously fighting big guns in his sister's home-breaking-case, told to the honorable Judge that their demand might have come down more but 'he' (pointing towards me) was not able to pay even Rs. 2 Lacs. 

I was surprised that how cleanly he can lie and still does not make stupid faces. Though he seems to be very stupid on face. He should have come to Gwalior, I guess he might have negotiated better than his elder Brother. 

What came out clearly from all the episodes that - 

1. Nimita is not at all interested in coming back and there is no possibilities from her side to make it up back.

2. Her family wants nothing but whole lot of money from her hubby, i.e. me. 'Snatch as much as possible'. after all, Nimita can't be married second time to repeat the same thing.

3. Nimita, simply can't think on her own. Her family (especially her brother, Anshuman) does this part of her life for her. 

4. And what is in Anshuman's mind? as per his own words in Court - 'he (i.e. me) must give money for the days Nimita has spent with him. why did he ruined her life by marring her?' as if the arrange marriage could be so damn one sided and only I was agree (rather forced her) to marry.

5. Anshuman and Abhay both are playing deep games. One says to me that he has not yet started and once he does, I won't have place to hide. Second says that he won't let me live peacefully for a single day of my life. Elder brother is bother about my chess playing and rubik's cube solving skills and is trying to play offline chess with me. Younger lawyer bro is running from pillar to post as this is the only case he has in hand, which he thinks, will give him enough money to run his life happily ever after.

6. There is no check in law for the reverse dowry or extortion demand of this sort. 

What to do now? I don't know.
