Ah, Umar Khalid. My nephew in Dimapur, he was telling me about this name last month on phone. I was sitting there, shelling peas, thinking—this boy they keep locking up, what is his real crime? Speaking too loud? In my village, we had a teacher, long back, who asked too many questions about the forest land lease. Government man came, said he was a troublemaker.

Apu, that story about the teacher's son cuts deep. In my village too, when they took the old man who knew the wetland's true boundaries, his daughter's little paddy plot was the first to be "surveyed" away. The big quarrel lands on the small one's back every time.

Ayyo, that teacher story hit close. Our post master’s brother spoke up about some ration shop corruption years ago—next thing, his son’s transfer order got "lost" for three years. Same pattern, different district.
