I know that a kid below 15 would likely call you uncle/aunty. But I find that really irritating. And even their parents don't tell them that don't call any random young person uncle/aunty. It is more insulting when you are in 30s but look way younger.
How do you process that tag? Or you simply ignore?
After a month or two, rainy season would be set. The place I belong to has no facilities as such to run while it rains as lightening and tree falling is frequent during that season. Running on a mud track is another trouble as that leads to cleaning up shoes and drying them up later is no less of a challenge.
I know I sound too much negative but still running on the public road or jogging track is not a choice. What do you suggest? Should I join a gym for the sake of running on the treadmill there? How different is running on the treadmill everyday and on the track?
The draft notification for E85, and E100 is out and it is likely that petrol run cars and bikes would soon become obsolete because of impractical and draconian govt fuel policy.
Looking at the development in the motor industry, it is also that car and bike manufacturers might collude with the government so that there would be no used car and bike market and whoever wants to have a bike / car must go for the new one and that too based on the fuel promoted by the govt. 90% of the bikes and scooters in our country run on petrol and that number is 20 crores while 2.5 crore private cars run on petrol.
I know that there might be a huge population that does not own any vehicle and the total vehicle owners amount to merely 16 to 17 percent and if we think of petrol run vehicle owners that's an insignificant number.
All in all, we are such a small and powerless section of society that the govt would shove down all its policies through our throat.
If we just sit back and watch, no wonder that we will have to scrap our present vehicles. If car, scooter, and bike owners don't unite and resist the implementation of new fuel policy, we will be left to regret.
We must not forget that our country faces severe water shortage with thanks to our own stupidity of releasing sewage in river water, endless sand mining in river beds, deforestation, and fast evaporation of lake storage due to high temperatures round the year. If this list of causes for water scarcity was any short, our idiotic govt has found a new priority for water usage : ethanol production. 1 liter of ethanol production needs 4000 to 11000 liters of water.
Last but not least, almost three years ago, our truckers showed to the world that even the most powerful person in this country could be made to kneel down.
Let us discuss ways and quickly launch a movement to stop this ethanol madness.
