GOVERNOR GEN DALHOUSIE and EVENTS 

ENJOY LEARNING THIS MEMORY TRICK!!!

Let us take DALHOUSIE….

We have not seen him !!!!!!!

We dont know how he looks like and WE DON’T CARE EITHER….

So what can be done is that let us take the name and make it FUNNY.

DALHOUSIE =  DAL + HOUSIE = DAL + HOUSE

Now imagine a house made of DAL ( pulses). Is it possible? Well no. But then if you make ODD stories, your mind remembers well.

You need not imagine a huge house…

Just draw a house like the one we used to do during our child hood days…

             X

      X           X

 X                    X

    l                  I
    l      [   ]      l

Now imagine that instead of the X AND l  used above,  it is made of DAL (pulse!!)….

This is our DAL HOUSE OR DALHOUSIE!!!

NOW MAKE A STORY………..Imagination is the key

During school holidays you are making some project. It is a DAL HOUSE. You have made a Dal house on a thermocol sheet. On the left side of the roof you place a TOY TRAIN and on the right side of the roof your brother places a TOY POST BOX. While playing you move the train from left side of the roof to right side of the roof and so hit the POST BOX which falls down. Your brother starts crying.

All of a sudden the doors of your DAL HOUSE opens and a small white ENGLISH MAN comes out and claps his hands. Suddenly many small english soldiers come and bring with them many HINDU BRIDES AND BRIDEGROOMS who were about to get married in a temple. Now the Englishman shouts ” I will conduct theHINDU MARRIAGE instead of the HINDU PRIEST’. People become worried…

Then there comes Jhansi ki rani …Laxmi Bhai with her sword… she ties the english man, goes inside the house and captures his wife who is  a DOCTOR with body full of LIPSTICK marks.. Rani puts both of them in a huge WOODEN DABBA(BOX) and despatch them off to SHIMLA where the weather was too cold and it is snowing. She makes the Englishman write CIVIL SERVICE EXAMS in the open ground at SHIMLA again to get a job

The door of the DAL HOUSE closes

HOW IS THE STORY??? YOU MAY THINK IT IS CRAZY………ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS DON’T THINK ANYTHING LOGICALLY. JUST TRY TO IMAGINE THE STORY….

DAL HOUSE ……..TRAIN (left roof)……POST BOX (right roof)….HINDU BRIDE, GROOM, PRIEST, MARRIAGE……..  …………..  RANI LAXMIBHAI …DOCTOR LIPSTICK……………..WOODEN DABBA…DEPSATCH……..SHIMLA………..CIVIL SERVICE EXAMS………..
