Why India is the way it is … ?

Scene: A flood affected area of Vadodara, Gujrat
Cast: Joint Commissioner of Police, K. Kumaraswamy, riding on the shoulders of a Constable to save his feet and trousers from Flood Water!!!
Source: The Indian Express, July 2, 2005.

Not sure about the validity of the source. Got this one as a mail forward. But, by all possibility, it could be true in a country like ours.

No wonder India is the way it is today. We have lot more to learn and improve.

Update : Harsh Says … “there is a report of correction to above from Indian Express of 15 July 2005. It says he was on work for last 17 hours at that time and is having a permanent injury in his leg from a bullet 10 years back”. Thanks Harsh for the update.

Hectic Week

This week seems to be kind of hectic. Lot of things going on parallel! So, kind of multi processing in office. Project work is kind of slowly coming in. Not major work as such. But i am kind of involved in lot of extra-or… may be you can call it secondary work, which has kind of kept me busy for the past few days. Should be ok in the next couple of days.

My news aggregator clearly shows how occupied i am :) Around 800 posts unread. Normally it will be in the range of 10 to 30!
