Sorry people for being MIA, my teenager returned last night from his trip to DC after attending a Science Comptt... they didnt win... but made it to the Top 16
Everytime I obsess over destination/results/outcomes like Desis I tell myself I must relax and learn to enjoy the "journey".
It doesnt come easy
Doc S You should just ignore people
Saying something sarcastic takes too much energy
Maybe he was trying to befriend you and have a conversation? You know he could be one of those lonely abandoned souls that wander the streets of Bangalore? Kids live overseas and dont care? maybe?, man tries to strike up convo at Food World with random people to get over loneliness?
What we see is NOT what it usually is.
Kalpana TN govt subsidizes PDS rice, the govt picks up the 80% of the cost. They buy from growers at Rs. 10? Rs.20 per kg and distribute through PDS at Rs.2 or Rs 4 per kg
The Rs. 62 Doc S is talking about is almost ALL markup of the retailer. the grower gets Rs.10 per kg
Thats why Indian farmers are so impoverished, especially the ones that grow on other people's lands
