Groceries and having heard of Nigerian writer Okri

Groceries and having heard of Nigerian writer Okri

As I procured groceries from Central Market Safdarjung Enclave New Delhi's Garg Store the outflow of cash was to make the home budget shaky and with no brevity. As the items procured were large the payment one could not dodge. The prices of essentials have skyrocketed over the years, the quantum of support for such rise has been trapped in fears. The price of Mother Diary Cow's Milk has been revised upward suggesting that common man can't have lumpsum curd. Such upward trend has not been seen in the Romanian City of Arad. Fierce is the battle to bring prices down, dousing the flames of petrol, diesel skyrocketing touch would be an uphill task with economic headwinds not in sludge. The script to forge ahead is to cut tax, the not so circumspect central vista take rest. The extraordinary burden desires like central vista bring on exchequer is huge and no chieftain of any shade can afford such cruise. Wasteful expenditure like giving security apparatus to chieftain of high order takes millions from exchequer every month, it drains out the exchequer enough to make it bleed, how long the chieftain of high order can stay put with cleat.

The air ride and dozen odd vehicle pride hits the budget hard, the satrap should cease to move and attend to duties from home in the vicinity would be cleome. Onerous is the task to make the chieftain of high order see reality, to make him stop from making exchequer from bleeding is akin to upstaging gravity. Ill informed is the chieftain he is not indispensable and time would come when he would slither and won't be available. News channels on pay rolls sing paeans, time is not far when independent reporting would be the norm and showcase the operation con. Pitfall of speaking to an invader he has not understood the off and on talk is only adding to crater. Times are uncertain ahead in the poll brouhaha one has lost his earning and bread. With none indispensable everything noticeable the indispensable chieftain is hard to accept in a world mired in digital tech. Another chieftain would rise, another commander sighting would be a prize, the Nigerian writer Okri's take on polity is not haughty.
