Mahesh Ubhayakar has voluntarily retired from a secure job in Indian Railways, of that of an Office Superintendent from Diesel Loco Shed, Krishnarajapuram in Bangalore, to risk writing and timing this book to its realistic mission. He was grievously injured in the 1989 K.K Express train accident, recovered miraculously, played and promoted sports, especially tennis ball cricket, in his Shed, apart from streamlining the eternal diversity in his field of work. He terms his survival and service in the Shed as a “Celebration of Life.” The author says this book highlights (through howlarious incidents and pithy observations) and attacks some areas of inefficiency, tardiness and hypocrisy in Govt. offices. It injects the much needed ENEMA into its Highly Constipated System and advocates a timely VIIth PAY COMMISSION. A must read for the Service-Minded and also the Government Bashers.

Peppered with humorous anecdotes, touching accounts and pithy observations, 'And So I Lived' is a fictional biography by Mahesh G. Ubhayakar, surmising his bitter-sweet experiences, in his 25 years’ in Railways - the hardship, the resilience and the triumph in bringing some required changes in the Society, Industry, Government and even in Cricket, in terms of mindset as well as streamlining.
The book highlights (in the form of incidents) and attacks some areas of inefficiency, tardiness and hypocrisy in Government offices (which most of us can relate to) and strives to eradicate them. He achieves the purpose in the end, and, in the process, founds a CREDIBLE INDIA.
