Poor postal services

Postal authorities would do well to improve the basic daak services rather than rely on advertisements on the TV...A letter posted in Shimla on 6.1.2012 (with the clear post and date mark) reached me in Panchkula today on 20th January....

Wake up...wake up Postal Department....

The Tribune - 130 & going strong...

The Tribune newspaper published from Chandigarh has foxed me....I have heard of 25 years, 50 years, 75 years and 100 years of an event/organisation being celeberated, but it is the first time that I have come across an organisation celeberating 130 years of its existence with so much fanfare!

What is so special about 130, if I may ask? Or is it just seeking some publicity?

Mr. Modi's fast

'Mr. Narendra Modi has gone on a one day fast at Godhra'...News

Which one of the following, in your view, describes it best:

(a) Sadbhavana fast
(b) Prayshchit fast
(c) Just a publicity stunt
