Crusade against print media.. continued
Few weeks rather months back, I wrote to The Hindustan Times for giving some coverage to non-south-Delhi areas too. The report gave information on plantation drive during monsoons in Delhi.

Letter to West Delhi Plus of TOI
I am regular reader of the TOI, and WDP. I have noted that you always give news about conditions of areas like Punjabi Bagh, Dwarka, Rajouri Garden, Janka Puri etc..

There are few situations of awkwardness which I face every now and then. Problem is one can’t get rid of them, you run into them almost everyday. Firstly, if someone sings just casually and makes facial expression and looks or comes towards you or looks at you as if singing to you, although he mightContinue reading “The regular embarassment”
Delhi Governance
Delhi Government is perhaps the best government of all the state govermetns in India. Of course it too suffers freomn problems associated with govt. departments, but what Ms. Shiela Dikshit has done in Delhi duting her ternure so far is unparalleled by any of her predecessors.
