Our unique country
Our country has attained uniqueness in many respects. It is the only country in the world where:
1. One can fill 100 kgs of anything into a 50 kg bag! Otherwise how could 5 lac Gas Guzzling Monstrosities fit into roads with capacity of 2-2.5 lacs!
2. Vehicle drivers think they have discovered a novel way of dispersing traffic jams by blowing their raucous horns as loud and often as possible!
3. Dozens of people disappear regularly without trace or reaction. But if an elected “pensioner” even with a murky past disappears, you have weeks of hartals, arson, bombings, vehicle/factory bashing, rioting, etc!
4. Our elected “pensioners” spend more time insulting honoured national personalities than at their jobs!
5. Ministerial chairs have seats with Super Glue. It is impossible to resign and even if forcibly done, you still get all your perks and salary!
6. If the impossible happens and the seat is wrenched away, there is an instant revolving door to another ministerial chair with OSD status, just like bureaucrats!
7. The legislative and executive branches of the state seem to be in a state of inertia. The judiciary is doing all their work!
