Mumbai musings - 4... PM in town...

As soon as I got into my cab for my morning ride to work, the cab driver remarks, "sab aaj koi mashoor doctor saab IIT campus aa rahe hain. Poora road saaf sutara hai aur police laga rakha hai"(Translated to -> Sir, some famous doctor is visiting IIT campus today. So the roads have been cleaned and police enforcements have lined up the roads). This statement got me really curious, and since the IIT campus was on my way to work, I happened to notice a huge banner, with a colorful picture of the visting dignitary, outside the gate with the following wordings:
"A very warm welcome to Dr.Manmohan Singh, the honorable Prime Minister of India". That reminded me of the long road ahead for Indian literacy and awareness.
