Interaction with Grandmother
It was very different experience while interviewing my
Grandmother,Chandrakala Joshi. She was born in Kekdi,Ajmer, Rajasthan. She did
her masters in Economics and taught for few years. For my Grandma generation
gap is very much in living. She told me that in her childhood days there were
no telivisions , no computers, nor the internet facility. It was only radio
which educated us about so many things. Life was very simple and ordinary. In
grandmother’s days school were major learning centers. The school ambience was
very good. They use to take part in debates and other co-curricular activities.
Their school libraries were very rich. She never felt any discrimination as a
girl child.
