Finding a new place especially in the hinterlands or outskirts of a city (thanks to the newly developing swanky houses and sun cities)is an onerous, tedious task and is no less than a conundrum. With no clue about which route to take while standing on crossroads,, taking a route we think to be right seldom leads us to the right path.
As they say the right path is often filled with hurdles, similarly the right road is always riddled with pits, having a sign board with a radioactively reflecting words saying “Work in Progress” in compliment, however nobody even in the leagues of that board seems to work upon it. On our way home we often get lost which pushes my panic button and urges me to behave imprudently and steer the car in a catatonic manner. With roads overflowing with ditch water in these rainy days causes the road to erode so much that it ain’t capable of driving anymore and if you think of moving through those narrow lanes (patli gali) which eventually lead us into a maze or labyrinth and ultimately draw us into an higgledy piggledy state, where we don’t know what to do? on top of it, if u try to use your mobile phones, then they do not have the signal, to the contrary, of their slogans saying”reaching u wherever you are”.That is what the problem is with this kind of an intricate technology, they don't help when u need them the most. If calling was supposed to be the last option, think again, may be asking somebody around would be a better one, however with the prodigious but distinct advices you get to which route to follow by our fellow Indians or self acclaimed 'guides' is like a humbug. At last if you reach your home after the so called rendezvous, we feel it wasn’t worth such a trouble .
