#Shortages2



In my earlier post ‘SHORTAGE’  I had mentioned these items continuing in short supply…..

1980 onwards        Electricity
& continuing           Water
 Cooking gas
 Fertilisers
 Pulses
 Milk
 Text books of primary classes
 Admission to Professional courses

2000 onwards        Train berths / seats
& continuing         Skilled workers

These items continue to be in short supply, and I feel some more items can be added. Criteria for any item to be considered should be that the majority should be affected by it.

Such an item that can be added is Public transport.

                               

Public transport, whether provided & run by Municipal authorities or State authorities or by Private enterprise is in acute short supply across India in nearly all the cities.

                             

Laws of Nature say that supply shall flow towards the area of shortage and there cannot be any shortage for long. The laws of supply and demand also reiterate this.

                              

But it seems that natural laws do not have any affect here..

Why ?

लपक लो

  Let us consider a couple of scenarios, which all of us have encountered sometime. ========== Me : “ You see, the situation is like …” The Other person : “Wait, I shall tell you what it’s like. The thing is …”. And he goes on to explain the same thing as I had started to tell. The message immediately implies that what I was going to say was incomplete info, and what the “Other Person” has said is clearer. ========== I post some interesting thing in a social media group. The Other Person , a group member, immediately posts several links about it from Google, Wikipedia; plus copy paste from some news site or News article, which tells exactly the same thing as I said. Here also the message immediately implies that what I posted was incomplete info, and what they posted is making it clearer.

INDIAN RESTAURANTS ABROAD

                 Indian cuisine is liked the world over and to cater to the hungry people,   restaurants with Indian sounding names have sprung up all over, even in remote corners where you least expect them. Foreign nationals unless they have been to India or dined at an Indian’s home, hardly know the correct taste of Indian dishes. They do not know any better. This is where the con takes place, with various non-Indians taking   advantage and dishing   out rubbish to unsuspecting foreigners; giving a bad name to Indian food in the bargain. The scam comes to light when   Indians travelling abroad or newly gone to reside there   become homesick for Indian food see a restaurant proclaiming itself as serving ‘Indian food’, visit these ‘Indian’ restaurants   in their outings,   to enjoy the dishes offered. In nearly every case, the food served there does not meet their expectations, and later on they find out that the owners are either Bangladeshi or Pakistani masquerading as ‘Indi

Towel on the Chair Back

TOWEL on the CHAIR BACK All of us, some time or the other, have had to meet a government officer in his office. One thing we would definitely have not missed noticing, whether the officer is present in the room or away. It could be the Finance, Police, PWD, Electricity, Secretariat or any other. It can be seen across all departments of the government, regardless of their intense rivalry with each other, or contrasting nature of work. What is it ?   It is a white towel spread neatly on the officer’s chair back. Why do they keep it that way ? Here are some answers from Social Media … The most common explanation is, its because of the sweat. Historically AC has not been common in Indian government offices despite the very hot and humid weather. Sitting on an office chair, your back will sweat and the sweat will get into the upholstery of the backrest, and gradually it will start smelling. Placing a towel soaks up the sweat to some extent and prevents this from happening
