nayyi dilli or nahi dili

New Delhi has a charisma of its own. The power centre always draws the hungry to travel across the length and breadth of the small state. The Britishers intended to keep it as a monument, only to be criss crossed by the Indians developing it to a funding bank.
I always thought why Kerala leaders said ' will go and discuss with the Centre'. Indeed travelling to Delhi itself is quite hectic, keeping in mind the hardships of Duronto rians. But this centre fetched a different purpose. While it give enough food for thoughts, it provided a safe stay for the greedy. For keralites who like hunger strike, they need to rethink why Lalu, pappu's are fat!!! They have enough fodder for creating a scam.

This is the new old Delhi, wherein people clad in white roam around the corridors of the Parliament. The Delhities are too busy even to mind a traveller, other than ofcourse the rickshaw walahs. I never liked capitals. They feel that the globe revolves around their place. Reminds me of copernicus earning the wrath for telling that earth is ball. You can spin it or throw it or even hit the stumps. It all depends on who throws. One of the reasons why we have many world leaders. Everyone wants to throw at others, only to bounce back at him.

Delhi is getting ready for the Commonwealth and Amir's campaign is running high. But I never ever came across any Amir fans here. Thankfully, I have few communists to give their manifesto remnindful of how they struggled against capitalism. The real communists are accusing the reel communists. Somanath has many stories to tell you on that. Delhi has suffocated me enough. I fell the same when I travel to Trivandrum. Is all capital states like this. Thank god we dont more capitals!! The seat of power is hot, and delhi is hot for a common man to rest.

Hope I get over this delhi dilemma. We can't live without it. It gets you addicted.
