A page to share random musings... an odd butterfly fluttering around.. a rare bloom to talk about... my next trip to plan... and yes, the new maid has joined! A page belonging to an author, a traveller, a compulsive decision maker of late... do keep dropping in to catch up on some gupp-shupp with me and do be prepared to put up with some anaap-shnaap rantings too :D

'Bring prices down now- Speeding up of trains & improving railway stations with foreign assistance can wait' by K.J.S.Chatrath
Have you seen the first page of today's Times of India? It reports, "Five sacks of onion were looted at gunpoint from the market at Chandusi Mandi here early Thursday."http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bareilly/Masked-men-make-off-with-five-sacks-of-onions/articleshow/48904873.cms
It also mentions that 'arhar dal' is now selling at Rs.145/- a kg.
My humble view is that government should focus on bringing the prices of essential commodities down at once. Making the trains run at the speed of a bullet or getting foreign assistance for improving the railways stations can very well wait.

Le Corbusiers 'Heritage' furniture...Bah!
Photo source: The Times of India/Chandigarh, September 10, 2015
One is beginning to suspect that some interested parties are bringing up the issue of "heritage" furniture designed by Le Corbusier again and again. Today yet again it was in the Times of India/Chandigarh.
Anyonewho has visited small towns in India would recognise this as thee most common design of chairs in India. And it has been in India long before Le Corbusier first came to India.
And if Le Corbusier did design the furniture in the picture, then he was a very poor furniture designer.
Come on, let us grow up.
