Similarities(Current Scenario) : Indian Cricket and The World Economy

Many people say that, combination of youth & experience is one the best combinations. While youth is responsible for taking the team forward with zeal and passion, experience lends stability to the team.

Currently, for Indian Cricket team and the world economy, this balance of youth and experience has been disturbed.

In cricket, with scars of the white wash of Indian cricket team from England still fresh,

everybody is excited to tell his opinion. While old foxes were out of color in this entire series, young guns could not show the temperament too.

Similarly,

Love , Hatred & Metro

Well, here comes my latest one. Though, starting lines might not seem to be linked to the subject, but by the time you reach the end of this blog, things will fall in place.

Smartness is being sold for just Rs100 by DMRC. If you regularly travel by Delhi Metro, you will be able to guess easily, how it is. For others, I will throw the light on it.

Ohh ! I haven't introduced my self. I am 'Common Local Indian Traveler'. I spend at least 3 hours daily to commute from my home to office and back.

It was a bit different yesterday. It took me 3 and a half hours just to reach my home, after I left from office. Most of the credit goes to India's already exploded population( which is being counter attacked these days by Idea 3G) and has been made smart by DMRC.
Coming back to smartness, DMRC sells smart cards to help us to enter the metro stations and yesterday while I spent more than an hour while standing in line, just to enter the platform, I realized there were at least 250 'SMART PEOPLE' in line, ahead of me. This 250 seemed equivalent to 25 million yesterday. This part, explains ' hatred' to an extent, yet not considering the packed capacity of coach filled with different kinds of odour , numerous delays during the travel etc.

So, amongst the cribbing , jokes and sweat, I stepped into the Metro coach. Actually, I could only step and could not move any forward. There was pushing, verbal duels, ' great Indian Jugaad , to find some place' which kept me and other ' Common Local Indian Traveler' entertained.
As my patience level was fluctuating and my cribbing was at all time high, I suddenly realized , the hidden motive of DMRC behind this. It is the love which DMRC was trying to spread. It made unknown people, friends, while they were standing in queue.
During these times of economic, communal and terror crisis, DMRC literally brought people closer. Inside the coach, everyone could smell his/ her neighbor's breath, read his/ her messages and save him/her from the ' dhakkas '.
My narrow mindedness didn't make me realize all this earlier, but it is better late than never. After , self created hatred , I could see only love all around.
Though, my only suggestion to DMRC is that, let love spread its wings freely. Don't divide humans by reserving the coach for fairer sex. :)
