Hey guys,

I have come to put down my frustrations on paper. Where do I start? I think I will go by bullet points.

1. I am in India at the moment; it is supposed to be my vacation. First thing first.... don't ever come to India in the summer; you are gonna self-combust.😆 It's so damn hot; on top of it the AC's in the cars' do not work at all in the hot weather. 🤢

2. Jai ho US! Mera immune system weak kar diya. I can't enjoy the damn food; it makes me sick, but after a week here, I appreciate US a lot more.😊

3. I think O2 doesn't exist; It's hard to breathe, especially in Delhi. So much pollution, not only air pollution, but sound pollution, too.🤢 The mindless honking, well not so mindless honking.... bikes, rikshaw, three-wheeler (or "bhoondi" so my dad calls it😆) cars, busses, trucks, cows😆 all on the same damn road, the size of a single lane in US.🤢 How are cars to pass if a bike drives in the middle of the road?😡😆

4. Passing, that reminds me of OVERTAKINg! God knows how people drive here. I am still in a state of shock; people drive in a two-way street as if it is one way.😕 They overtake when a vehicle is coming head-on in the other lane. IT's really scary. Then nobody bothers that a car is coming from front, slow down a bit. The first day, our driver went thru RED light.😲 Nobody saw it. I am sure if anybody had seen, NOBODY would have done a damn thing.😡 Thank god, seat belt pehente hain. I am glad I am still alive.😃

5. Now to the damn government! 😡 Pretty useless.... mera vacation karab ho raha hai... cause of the damn Saccha sauda people!😡😡 What egotisitic people!! NOt ready to apologize after hurting sikh sentiments. The guy appears to be a criminal. 🤢 They shot somebody at their dera....And the organization claims to be for human values🤢🤢. If he is so willing to talk to the other side, why not just apologize. IT won't make you little.😡 I tell you, a damn publicity stunt... that's all it is.

And the cops are pretty useless.... I was to go to Golden temple, but the damn road is blocked😡 by the so called akali people, and the sacha sauda people😡😡 ... WE turned back; who knows when a riot might break out.😭 The cops were just standing there, waiting for the people to move rather than moving them so there is no inconvenience for the traffic.

I want to go shopping, but the akali's seem to have shut down the stores in protest...😡 the govt. is divided on the damn vote-bank... congress is supporting saccha sauda people (haha, ironic name)😡 and the akali govt. is not sure whom to support; they just might loose their damn elections.😡😡 NO, votes matter more than people's sentiments, and peace in punjab.😡 My dad said that the stores are closed cause of the akali people.😭

The stupid govt. is letting everything spin out of control. Had the police filed a FIR and a case filed against the so called "guru", all this might not happen...people are out on roads with their swords who knows what can happen. I think the govt. and cops are intermingled too much.... should be a separate dept😡... all I hear is that ruling party won't interfere in police matter, but police works on cue from the govt, and they are doing nothing....alll for damn votes, and the opposition is supporting the dera.🤢😡 HOw can anybody resolve a matter in this system???🤢😡

6. Also, there has been a bomb blast in masjid in hydrabad; the people are throwing stones at the cops, and in protest have shut down hydrabad.

7. Hospitals.... uff, had to spend entire day in the hospital.... supposed to be one of the best hospitals in Chandigarh... yeah right; might have all the services, people are very polite, but the system again is so damn ridiculous...very very frustrating😡... Docs are never in their rooms; Make the patient wait forever...bechare patient ki jaan nikal jjayen chahe😡... and reason, 'lunch par gaye hain'. Damn their lunch...what is this lunch 9-5 ka lunch😡😡. And then there is no first come first serve basis.🤢

I am tired of typing all that is wrong with India, and all that is going wrong! 🤢 I seriously do not know how people in India tolerate all this nonsense... life is hard.

Meri vacation is getting ruined!😭 I hope riots don't break out; people are gonna die cause of dirty politics. It's all good from far away, but to live in teh middle of this ruckus is admirable, and courageous.👏👏

What do I say? Yeh hai MERa INdia!🤢😭😃

A request to the mods... please do not move the topic to another section; I would like to hear everybody's opinion on all I have written... especially on politics, how the system operates in time of crisis, the cops, the hospitals, and what not!

I will keep you guys updated; please pray that everything goes back to normal.😊

Persy

I think I shouldn't have read your post. I am working my butt of right now to earn the right to go to India for summer vacation by myself. After reading your post, I am not so sure. 😕 I am also going to be vacationing in Punjab, if I get to go.

Actually it's funny hearing all this.

I live in Delhi with this opressing heat, power cuts, dirty everyday local politics, drive to work & back (takes about two hour both ways) in the traffic conditions mentioned but i guess we are just so used to it.

Thats four hours of driving each day, I could never do it. my arms hurt after 10 minutes of driving. I eat so many vitamins to be able to drive the amount I have to, which is half of what you drive.

As for the living conditions of delhi, I guess you do get use to it.
