Delhi-6

I recently came back from a tour of Punjab/Haryana via Delhi. There is something special about the La Capitos which attrcts you to it. You know its a mean city, you have heard a zillion times that dilliwallahs are not dil-wallahs, its the evil-field of our nation's politicians. But you still get blindly mesmerised by the magnetism of the city, to the colourfully crowded markets, and the wide roads, and the mystic landscape of the city. As scintillating the city is, as amusing its denizens. Here are 6 features i noted about the city, which i was always too gasped to ntoice in my previous visits as a kid.

THIS is Delhi, the Only city where:

1* The shops have name like - Dilbara, Saajan, Mohabbat (Translated to: sweetheart, lover, love).
Examples: Dilbara Shoe Store, Saajan Saari Centre, Mohabbat Electrical Items

2* Traffic police office cube is smaller than the under-the-flyover beggars' shack

3* You still get to see extinct car species perfectly wading through the roads - like - Suzuki Baleno , Daewoo Matiz and ah- the Maruti-1000.

4* The roads are So BIG, but the buses Oh-so-small

5* Government agencies have offices bigger and more posh than corporate houses

6* Chaat is the staple food - rich or poor, Southie or North. You get it even at the Airport!


Yeh dilli hai mere yaar, bas ishq mohabbat pyaar
