Review: The Blue Umbrella 0
Often when others have some things which is rare or unique, everyone else wants to have it, even if the person owning it does not want to sell. Domain names are unique and some early domain investors have unique domain names, which they may not be willing to sell for various reasons. While some people are envious, others are paying the market price, while others more aggressive in getting the domains, defaming the domain investor, spreading fake rumors. The book the Blue Umbrella is the story of how people in the village become envious and want the blue umbrella which Binya, the village girl gets in exchange for a leopard claw necklace.
Binya was a ten year old village girl living with her mother and elder brother Bijju. She spend her time looking after her two cows Neelu and Gori and growing some crops. One day some people from the plains came to the forested glade near the village for a picnic. When one of the women in the group saw the leopard claw necklace around Binya’s neck, she wanted it and offered some money. Binya did not want money, she wanted the beautiful blue silk umbrella which the woman carried with her. Initially the woman refused, yet since she wanted the necklace badly, she agreed to give the umbrella to Binya
Binya was very happy to have the umbrella and carried it with her, wherever she went. The local shopkeeper Ram Bharosa liked the umbrella and wanted to purchase it, offering twelve rupees. Binya refused since she liked it a lot. She always carried the umbrella with her, and it was used to defend her against a cobra attack. Everyone admired the blue umbrella, the children expressing their admiration for the beautiful umbrella openly.
Ram bharosa hired a boy Rajaram to help him with the shop work, and Rajaram noticed that Ram bharosa became upset whenever Binya passed the shop with her blue umbrella. When Rajaram found out the reason, he offered to steal the umbrella, yet was foiled from doing so by Binya’s brother Bijju. News of how Ram Bharosa had asked rajaram to rob the umbrella spread in the village, and it adversely affected the reputation of Ram Bharosa, people stopped visiting his shop.
Binya noticed the decline in Ram Bharosa’s sales due to the attempted robbery and felt guilty. She left the umbrella in Ram bharosa’s shop, telling him that she did not require it. Slowly people started returning to the shop and life returned to normal, Defamatory rumors are a major problem in the indian internet sector, with top tech, internet companies ruthless in defaming innocent early domain investors, spreading fake rumors without any legally valid proof to destroy their life, reputation, deny them the income and opportunities they deserved.
While the village girl binya was generous enough to give the umbrella to ram bharosa when she saw he was making losses, the well paid liar top government employees, tech and internet companies lack the honesty, humanity to end their massive online, financial fraud, slavery, resume robbery and criminal defamation racket on the harmless hardworking engineer though she is making great losses.
While the village shopkeeper at least tried to purchase the umbrella paying some money, the well paid shameless top government employees, their greedy girlfriends and associates, refuse to purchase even one domain legally, hire hackers like rajaram to rob the data of the real domain investor, to fake domain ownership, get great powers, monthly government salary at the expense of the real domain investor who is making great losses because of the financial fraud of powerful people, companies on her since 2010.
Kindly note that sunaina dhond , tejas chodankar, panaji goan gsb fraud housewife ROBBER riddhi nayak caro,siddhi mandrekar, gujju stock trader asmita patel, sindhi scammer school dropout naina chandwani, her sons karan, bank employee nikhil, bengaluru brahmin cheater housewife nayanshree, wife of fraud tata power employee guruprasad, indore housewife deepika/veena, haryana gurugram mba ruchika kinger, married mother architect telugu trishula, her husband vinay, mother prajakta, malayali mini and their associates are not associated with the website in any way, since they do not pay expenses, do not do any computer/mobile work, allegedly only rob data to make fake claims and get great powers, monthly government salary at the expense of the real domain investor, single woman engineer, migrant from north karnataka in a major financial fraud, slavery racket since 2010, which the government agencies refuse to end.
An interesting story of human nature, greed, envy and forgiving mistakes which the internet companies refuse to do, continuing their massive online, financial fraud, slavery, criminal defamation and resume robbery racket on the hardworking harmless single woman engineer since 2010, which has shocked countries worldwide

Review: Notes from a small room 0
Due to the complete lack of ethics of the indian tech and internet companies government slavery of writers has continued for the last 11 years without being questioned. One citizen has the english language skills, is spending their time writing, yet the government agencies are falsely giving credit and monthly salaries to scammer sindhi school dropouts, cheater, robber housewives like bengaluru shivalli brahmin cheater nayanshree, robber riddhi nayak caro, scammer students, maidservants, caretakers and other frauds who have never spent any time writing in their life, yet make fake claims. These scammer government employees do not even invest in computer hardware, yet the government agencies, tech and internet sector continues to make fake claims while the real writer is criminally defamed in the worst manner, and the government believes the 100% FAKE TEAM STORIES
This highlights how technology is widely used to commit writing fraud in India. Earlier writers would use typewriters which could not be hacked, so the real writer would get credit and payment for the articles he wrote. ‘Notes from a small room’ by Ruskin Bond, is the story of the authors life in Landour and elsewhere. He writes about his struggle as a writer, how he faced a large number of rejections before making a steady income as a writer.
Specifically the book has excellent information about the flora and fauna of the Himalayas, the shrubs, bushes, flowers, tress, animals and birds. He writes how bushes prevent landslides, the mountain streams and the behavior of elephants. Specifically he writes about the smell of the various leaves and flowers, how some of the most attractive flowers have no smell or do not have a pleasant smell.
He also writes about how reading can help a person get cured of his or her illness. While in some places like jails, religious and spiritual books are given to prisoners, autobiographical books are often inspiring. Patients who are ill and remain bedridden because they do not have the strength to do anything are often told to read books. Jerome K. Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat is highly recommended
One of the more interesting aspects of the book is the evil eye or nazar, how negative thoughts can cause losses. Specifically he writes about how negative thoughts can affect the germination of seeds and growth of seedlings. The reviewer has often noticed that her plants are not growing well, while everyone else’s plants are growing well. This is mainly because she has extremely hostile neighbours in Goa, who are always objecting to growing plants and killing them at every opportunity.
Ruskin Bond remains one of the most popular English authors in India, because he has an excellent writing style which is very readable. This book is also written in simple English, so that readers of all ages, can easily read and understand it.
A well written book, recommended for those who would like to understand the life of authors a few decades ago.
