Unable to watch news channel as cable connection is lull

Unable to watch news channel as cable connection is lull

As we are unable to watch news channel given the cable connection that is lull we have little access to news from India and abroad; India for all practical purposes is not haughty and high on guard. The 75th anniversary of independence went on smoothly with no hiccups and more so reverentially. With no access to news and no link to career blues the Afghanistan imbroglio is something that can create major upset and hope Taliban the outfit in command doesn't keep governance in limbo and governs with no acts suggesting the one in command is himbo.

India is a nation with vast multitudes and here reporting to work can sometimes be odd and on occasions cruise. We are freed from news channels debates which are nonetheless voluminous and can give a sense of old crate. At high pitch voice and audible thrice the participants pick holes in other debaters and run wild in a nation where tiger is in limbo and and suggest as if what has been employed is heaver. With no cable connection and no initiation we have freedom to pause and not be gripped by world affairs churning that can initiate one to underlying tension. All eyes are fixed on Afghanistan churning and hope the current outfit in control yearns for peace and that be the clue and grease.

As for home major repairs have been undertaken involving plumber and carpenter who have reported to work in order and they were no less than Scottish Lauder. WC was replaced, platform was evicted and in came a bathroom that was used by family seniors who stay in adjoining room. Expenses were high involving direct intervention by three plumbers who were not tightlipped on how work was to be undertaken in a country not far from a territory hosting sportsman Bevan. Having procured essentials from Garg Store the fascination to get hold of six litres of milk was nothing less than invention. The milk turned curd with Jadugar chura (beaten rice) is all that we have in breakfast; lunch and dinner are poles apart. From City Store came Mukesh and Vinod and from Garg Store appearance was made by Surendar who are dutiful and thousand miles away from Somnath where one occasionally sight shoat. Essentials we are procuring from these two stores which are in Central Market and have the aptitude to leap in a curvet. As maids report to work dutifully, it was time to hail their commitment and their disdain for telly. The occasional reminder that disdain for telly is natural given the summer carnival. Summer carnival transports us to a different world where power outage can unfurl. As flag was unfurled at Red Fort in the city of Delhi it was time for nation's conscience keeper to keep his face in spotlight and viewed by millions in telly. 

This was the very week when there was power outage for hours turning the immediate need for one to immerse in shower. Water we use in limited quantity and yet the bill for non functional meter soars and this can really be an episode of sore. We are living in a city where news channels would continue with their debates not signalling the need to lay hands on high tariff for water and other essentials and debate it in entirety and with no remorse of being in a zone of wind shelf. The pricey power and water can upset budget that is not ameliorated by recurring expenses to call plumber and carpenter who don't engage in banter.
