Aiyo, Ranil is in Delhi, so let’s wait for him. This is a country of monkeys, so leader has to come back to give instructions on what next.

Rs. 1,500 fine for the driver. Why? He and the bus owner is linked to politicians. No court case, no compensation, no judgement . If court case is pursued those children will be grandparents when verdict is delivered.
