Yes I am truly adjusting to the bull shit transport service in
Meter se chalo, saab meter kharaab hai.
To theek karvayo, Meter se kaun chalta hai.
Acche kitne, 60 rupaiye.
Bhaiya 50 chalenge, saab dal 100 rupaiye se upar ho gayi hai, chinni 50 paar kar gayi hai.
Mujhe kyon bata rahe hon, Manmohan Singh ke pass time kaha hai yeh sab sunene ke liye.
Finally he says with all his pride and valour intact, bolo saab chalna hai. Still you are requesting, No man, please don’t leave me alone in this deserted place, I feel scary (yes I do feel the same at 8:30 in CP, the CBD of Delhi). In
He made me realize that the prices of basic commodities has really skyrocketed. Its been more than six months since I last visited grocery store.
