The whole world seems to be preparing for the G20 summit. From US to China, they are all harping about what Modi is planning to do, or atleast that's what our media wants us to believe.. Anyway, the best by product of hosting the G20 is the sprucing up of the city that is being done. Suddenly the MCD cleaners are sweeping all the visible scraps of plastic on the road (something they should've always done but never did), all dividers and flyovers are being painted, all signages are up and erect, all street lights are functioning... the list is endless... and it is amazing how perfect we wish to be when we have visitors, yet how shabby the original condition still is.. But the biggest realization is how nice and functional every civic amenity would be, if they all did their job properly ! So the next time you clean up your house when you have visitors, don't feel bad... that's what even countries do :) :D
as we say.....human being is a "social" animal ;)
