Polo Ground: riyasat ka tohfa, ab zameen ka sawaal

Polo Ground Jaipur ki un jagahon mein se hai jahan shehar ki purani saans ab bhi mehsoos hoti hai. Kabhi yahan khula maidan tha, jahan riyasati daur ki harkat aur shehar ki raftar ek saath chalti thi. Log ise bas ek plot nahi, balki Jaipur ki yaad ka hissa maante hain. Ab isi jagah ko lekar zameen ka vivaad phir se saamne hai. Ek taraf itihas ka tohfa, doosri taraf kaagzon par tikki daavedari. Galiyon, chaurahon aur chai ki tapriyon par bhi isi baat ki charcha hai ki aisi jagah ka matlab sirf map par boundary nahi hota. Ek buzurg ki si baat yaad aati hai — jo jagah peedhi ko yaad de, us par faisla bhi sambhal ke hona chahiye. Jaipur mein aise maidan kam bache hain jahan khuli hawa, sports aur shehar ki pehchaan ek saath milti ho. Isi liye Polo Ground ka mamla sirf zameen ka nahi, city ke man aur memory ka bhi hai.
