Shastri Bhavan @ DEADLY HAL(d)L(d)OWS - Experience

Three powerful magical objects termed as the DEADLY HALLOWS can defeat death in terms of HP dictionary. Definitely, most of the magical world people would like to posses them. Now, I am on a mission of hunting three such things. Today, I was looking for the first HALLOW at Shastri Bhavan @ HADDOWS road. I was along with my dad(He too seeks the first Hallow) Before reaching there, we registered ourselves online and booked our appointment 2 weeks earlier. It is really easier doing it online rather than getting an application form and filling the whole form manually. We got the online application form printed and filled in rest of the details manually. Then we had few more preparatory work in gathering various proof documents like address proof, birth certificate, degree certificate, affidavit & identity certificate[if working in Government sector]. We also had a photo session other day for getting the specified 3.5x3.5cm copies. Once everything was done, the well awaited day arrived. We reached the spot by 7:30am. Head count of around 50 people were already enqueued in the line(General category). They have 3 different lines- (General, Tatkal, Enquiry). It seems that now more people go for Tatkal when compared to General category. The queue was static on the floor till 9:30am, after which we were given with the token stickers. Then by 10:00am they started the document verification session. Our token number was called out by 11:00am. We missed the Hallow by a whisker. I felt like seeing a GRIM in the cup.

I pray that the GRIM be Sirius Black rather than a worst omen in the world. I was supposed to enter father's name in SURNAME column rather than entering it along with my name in the GIVEN NAME column. Keeping my fingers crossed and wishing that I get my first Hallow soon.

Hunt continues..
