Delayed Trains - What can we do?
The other day I went to the Bareilly Railway Station to receive my daughter who was coming from Delhi by the Delhi-Lucknow Shatabdi Express. The arrival time of the train is 1915 hours, however, the train reached at 2140 hours, nearly 2 hours 25 minutes late. Over a distance of just 250 KM, and a run of less than 4 hours, the train managed to be ne... more...

A Peek into the Life of a Taxi Driver
PS. This was written 2 months back but some how i did not post it.  I was returning by road from Pithoragarh when I suddenly started feeling sleepy and all efforts to keep my eyes open and focused were failing. I kept dozing off time and again and then would sit up with a start and look around, only to doze off again. I was wondering how to keep my... more...

A Chinese Proverb
I came across a Chinese proverb which says:-   â€œHe who asks is a fool for five minutes, he who doesn’t,  remains a fool for ever.† How true this is. Unless a person has a healthy curiosity and inquisitiveness, he will not gain new impressions and imbibe new knowledge.  However, an unhealthy curiosity is bad. It is wrong to be poking one’s ... more...

3 Finalists or 5?
I was seeing one of the reality shows on TV the other day and the final episode was in progress. There were three contestants who were left in the finals. All three were equally proficient and anyone of them could easily have won.  It was just a question of who gets more votes that would decide the fate of these three.                 The evening w... more...
