cayenne, but the paki expressway is still much longer, older and better than the bombay-poona (or is it panvel-shivaji nagar). so time to outsource..pronto.

Re: # 52

Nice try Mr.Sour Grapes.Why don`t you take a ride on a ``Qing-qi`` derived contraption, emitting black smoke from it`s 1955 chinese derived one-banger.OR, even better , how about a `Revo` an 80`s Wu-ling derived breadbox that is still yet to get off the ground!!.You`ll have to wait like for everything else in pakland.

Ref HP #51

[They call this an automobile in India!]

Nope, it is called an auto for an autorickshaw, not an automobile. Nice try but no dice!

NDTV Correspondent

Thursday, May 12, 2005 (New Delhi):


The Centre today assured Maharashtra that it would provide as much as 1,210 MW of electricity, including 610 MW at normal rates to the state to tide over the situation.

The state has been reeling under an acute power crisis.

An assurance to this effect was given by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh after a 40-minute meeting which deliberated on short-term measures to address the problem.

Deshmukh told reporters that out of the 610 MW, 300 MW would come from Kawas project in Gujarat and 250 MW from Tarapur nuclear power plant. (PTI)

The nuances in the populist rhetoric about Maharashtra`s roadmap towards progress tell us a lot about where the State is going....Ponder over this:

Long time ago the dream was to convert Konkan into California. It was soon realized that that was too far to go. Maharashtra politicians started talking about converting Girangaon (Girgaum or Mumbai) into Singapore. That also now looks too distant and at this moment we are chasing Shanghai!

It saddens one to realize that Shanghai and Mumbai were almost on par in the early 1950. Perhaps, Mumbai was a little ahead of Shanghai. The distance between the two of them has widened so much by now that Shanghai is held forth as a desirable goal for Mumbai to catch up with!

#57,

It might be an automobile to you cave dwellers but to us it is simply a bullock cart :)

Pakistanis must be in awe of choolhas too thinking they are microwaves.

Indians should take the lead in bringing civilization to our primitive neighbors in the west.

Here is a picture from the world`s forth richest country. Does this seem civilized to you MaheshG2 ? Na, it must be an ISI conspiracy.

#62,

It does not seem civilized to me but it obviously does to you. Ask HP. He will tell you that the picture is of a couple of automobiles.

That`s why I say we Indians should take the lead in bringing civilization to the cave dwellers in our west.
