Hey!
An eventful weekend parted us after adding a couple of appoggiaturas to an already animated week. A string of seven days which saw "Brother Leader and Guide of the Revolution" being questioned by his own people, a civil servant in Odisha being theatrically kidnapped by Maoists, a no-hike Railway budget which pleased only the denizens of Mamta's Land, et al.
I don't know whom to blame for all this. But you can blame me for the questions below.
Arrivederci
