: A call centre executive from Pune, Maharashtra

Gujarati who helped Baleshwar to carry the to a

workplace, daily. Roma Talreja, a 21-year call- centre executive tried

to settle herself in the ladies’ compartment near the door. While the

train was moving fast, she got pushed and lost her balance and was

thrown out of the coach. At the same time Baleshwar Mishra, an

unemployed high school dropout, who was travelling in another

train, speeding in the opposite direction saw this. Immediately he

grabbed the train’s red emergency chain without any second thought. "

Let's go and help her", he shouted. But nobody moved to help him.

Baleshwar jumped off the still moving train and ran back very fast to

help the girl.

After running for several minutes, he found the girl and asked,

"Behanji aap theek hai?” (Sister are you okay?). But there was no

response. He saw the blood flowing out of the deep cut behind the

young woman's head. He lifted her and crossed through some

shrubbery and followed the direction of the vehicle sounds until he

found the road. " My sister is injured", he requested the motorists but

no one stopped.

Just when Baleshwar had begun to lose hope, a tempo

truck driver, a middle-aged man who spoke Gujarati, helped him to take

the girl to hospital. On the way, a traffic police man said, "Take the girl

to Airoli”. But Baleshwar disagreed because Airoli was at least 10

kilometers away. “There is a closer place I know of”, he said. After 10

minutes they reached a small hospital. But due to lack of staff and

equipment, the on- duty doctor gave only the basic first aid. He advised

them to move her to a nearby hospital. On the way, when Roma got

consciousness, Baleshwar asked her name and whom he could call

to inform about the incident. She gave her brother Dinesh’s phone

number and became unconscious again. Baleshwar memorized the

phone number and the tempo truck driver gave his mobile to call

Dinesh. Dinesh who was closing his day at his marketing job rushed

towards his motorcycle to reach the place quickly.

They arrived at Divine Multi - specialty Hospital and Research Centre.

Seeing the extent of Roma's injury, Dr Anil Agarwal admitted her

immediately to the ICU without any paperwork. Roma was out of

danger. Doctor said that if nobody had helped her, she could have bled

to death. Roma’s brother said that her cell phone and handbag were

missing. So, Baleshwar revisited the spot where Roma had fallen. A

railway employee assured that some of Roma's belongings had been

found. In a few days Roma made a full recovery. She said that she

could never repay Baleshwar who risked his life. According to

Baleshwar, the people of Mumbai are afraid and they fear getting

trapped in the courts or with the police. An unemployed youngster's

courage tells us that love and compassion are the true religions in the

world.

Read the poem aloud and refer dictionary for unfamiliar words.

Read the summary of the poem “Quality of Mercy” “Quality of Mercy “is an extract of the play “The Merchant of the Venice” by William Shakespeare. Here Portia, one of the main characters in the play, argues why mercy is the greatest virtue of all.

Portia compares mercy to the gentle rain from heaven. It’s a natural human quality towards the people who are in need. It is twice blessed which blesses both the giver and the receiver. Mercy, an admirable quality, raises the glory of the king more than his crown. The sceptre which controls people with fear is the symbol of worldly power. This divine quality is always greater than the power of sceptre. It is a seated in the heart of the kings and the judgement given by such kings always strengthens the justice.

Read the following statements and say whether

they are true or false 1. Mercy is compared to gentle rain.

2. It doesn’t bless the one who gives it.

3. Mercy is the mightiest virtue.

4. The sceptre is the symbol of worldly power.

5. Mercy is not a divine power. Answer the following questions.

2. How do you say mercy is the greatest virtue of all?
