Patrolling the barren mainland of the academic block (battlefield area) in my usual gear that includes a pair of earphones, a single strap bag and a communicating device that also serves as the music player and looking for high priority targets i came up with this post. Patrolling is an essential duty of all the members of the Legion i am a part of. This special task requires high presence of mind, stealth, and specialization in sign and code language and ninja techniques. The targets must never know that they are under the radar. This Legion is yet to be named. Patrolling is one of the several tasks that this spec-ops team is capable of doing.
Coming back to the Patrolling, the path includes the following locations of the battlefield.
1.Jaggi (the heart)- The heart of all activities and a nice location to camp with the UAV recon .This place serves as a hangout spot for most of the civilians. The density of population varies according to time with the least in morning and maximum in evening.5pm to 7pm is the prime time in this area. This Vantage point is of prime importance and the most important location in the path. At this point many people “see” (yes this is the same see you are thinking of) many people and hence starts the journey, the journey which will make you do things you have never done, may bring the best out of you :D. Jaggi is the place where many comrades lose their mind and what not in pursuit of “happiness”(apparently what some people call it).Moving on to the next location in the path
2.Directorate(the fortress)- The high-command office / working area where executive decisions are made. It has got cells which serves as working area for most of our mentors/oppressors. This VVIP location is where all our money goes (the money which we pay to stay in the battlefield) . The executives here make battle plans(the exams) , some changes in the functioning of the field and related stuff. The whole area is the only area in the college which is air conditioned( quiet ironical even after spending so much ). The mentors here prepare ground for the battles which we fight in the following sections of the patrol path.
3.The E/F block(active war zone). The area where we spend most of our time and is an active warzone. It holds the 2/3 hours battles named MST/EST respectively which we fight during specific months of the year. These battles lead to win or defeat and thus plays an important role in deciding our fates. Some might argue that these battles are useless but what i feel is that winning here is pretty much important (may be not by a big margin but yes one should ultimately succeed) . The battle count in the four years of warfare is approximately 88 and one should try and not die (gaining a F) in any of the battle, severe injuries might get healed with time but death is not a very good sign though you can reverse it but i say it’s not a wise decision to die. One can control the result of these battles. During cold war (normal working days) these areas are full of activity and the person who started his/her journey at Jaggi can continue it here. :p
4 The D block- A place that bring back fond memories , I remember how i met the members of the Legion in the freshmen year . There is nothing much to see here and is just a connecting link in the patrol .The D block is also the gateway to the official hideout The Library for many couples :p.
5.The Corridor- the corridor which acts as the connecting path from D block back to Jaggi is of less importance but what comes after the corridor is of utmost importance ; The placement cell(freedom cell)- which i feel is the most important battle place and if u win there you gain freedom , you are free to do whatever you have ever thought of. From here sky is the limit for you
From this corridor it’s back to Jaggi . This is the PATROL PATH
