Now all kinds of experts will tell us why India lost today- should have made some 'partnerships' in the initial stages, should have played X and not Y etc., etc.
Let us just concede that in today's match, Australia played better cricket than India.

Shri Arvind Kejriwal wants air-conditioners to be removed from his new official house- news
Shri Arvind Kejriwal wants air-conditioners to be removed from his new official house- news
Some simpler solutions could be (i) to let the poor air conditioners remain, but not to switch them on; (ii) or let the a.c's be disconnected from the power supply,or (iii) to use them for a month and not pay the bill and then disconnect them for non-payment of electricity dues.
Well?

'Amitabh-Shamitabh' by K.J.S.Chatrath
Like quite a few of us, I too am a fan of Amitabh Bachhan's acting and versatility. But I was very disappointed to see him in 'Shamitabh'. He just couldn't hide his self-love- it almost bordered on arrogance.....

Ek shahanshah ne bana ke haseen Taj Mahal,
Hum garibon ki mohabbat ka hai udaya mazakâ,
Ay meri mehboob, kahin aur mila kar
"मेरे महबूब कहीं और मिला कर मुझसे,
बज़्म- ए-शाही में ग़रीबों का गुज़र क्या माने.
सबत जिन राहों पर है सतबते शाही के निशां
उसपे उल्फत भरी रूहों का गुज़र क्या माने?"-
Role Models!
One Hon'ble Governor walked out from a function when the national Anthem started to play...
Another Hon'ble Governor read one paragraph from his 39 page address to the budget session of the Assembly and said the rest may be taken as read...

'No, GATI, No! by K.J.S.Chatrath
I sent a complaint to GATI about their false reporting about delivering a parcel. Got a computer generated reply. I tried for 3 days and sent 10 reminders. Got the same reply that the matter was being looked into.
Then I had to tell them that I may have to knock at the doors of Consumer Court. Pat came a reply that they were not in a position to locate my complaint.
I protested again and then got a reply,presumably from a human being, just saying sorry without going into any detail.
No, GATI, No. This is no way to treat your customers!
