Best Excuse in Delhi - "Stuck in Jam"

It's been more than 6 years I am here in Delhi and till date I get this excuse of reaching late - 'Stuck in Jam'. There have been times, when I also used to travel in buses, autos etc which also run on roads. I used to reach on time but some people also use this excuse of heavy jam on the way. Being punctual is a matter of discipline and one needs to plan everything by keeping traffic in mind. Anyway, Metro has made our lives far easier than ever. Metro has given another opportunity to people to be more disciplined in life. I am a BIG fan of Metro because it has really given a predictability of time. Imagine that 1hr is enough if you are planning to come to Noida from New Delhi Railway station through Metro. And 1hr is upper limit ! Can any road vehicle be so sure about the timelines in Delhi?

Monsoon Psychology @ Delhi, INDIA

Monsoon Effect in Delhi - 2010: Posted by VJ SHARMA at www.travellingcamera.com : Rains bring joy, rains bring happiness. But along with all this, rain also brings waterlogging and traffic jams in metropoliton cities such as Delhi. But in spite of all that, it is a welcome visitor. And this year, monsoon has been very generous. We had all forgotten what monsoon really means. This year it refreshed all memories...Walking through muddy roads is a challenge, especially when you are wearing flip-flops. And during rainy season, everyone get psyched enough to fold up the trouser legs even when there is no water around. It becomes more like a habit.Some images brought back memories of my childhood.Being splattered with muddy water by a rogue car is a very common tale of misery one comes across during this season of fun and mischief. With several pock-marked roads, driving through the city was a major challenge this season. One advise here is that it is best to avoid water on the sides of the road as you never know what lies beneath that deceptively placid surface.I don't know about other cities but this was a common site in Delhi. Yamuna has been flowing above the danger mark since the last 5 days and the water from the river also spilled over near ISBT.Half an hour worth of rain was enough to cause jams that lasted for hours. The drainage system completely went for a toss.But still, all of us love rains and a dry monsoon means soaring tempers, mounting irritation and silent hopelessness. So God, please give us decent amount of rains year after year.

Monsoons in Delhi, INDIA : Part-2

Monsoons in Capital of INDIA ( DELHI ): Posted by VJ Sharma on www.travellingcamera.com : Now monsoon is there in Delhi and probability of traffic jams has increased in capital city of INDIA. Here are few photographs clicked during monsoon season of 2010...As per my definition, Monsoon is a much awaited season after scorching summers and people get bored of this season soon :-)I enjoy rains at times but these should not be continuous... Rains bring freshness in our surroundings but they can ruin many other things due to this continuous behavior...
