With the Traders’ strike getting stronger and my pantry stock leaner I’m now getting a bit anxious. How long will it go on for I wonder?

While I was at the Chemists ( before they downed their shutters today) I told the chemist that as long as the PiP ( People in Power) don’t get affected, there will be no change of heart. After all only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches.

On the other hand, I realised that with our Ministers and Powers that Be openly eating MONEY in humongous quantities, there is no question of being affected by the traders’ strike at all. After all when they are eating money in crores, it is obvious that they won’t miss the simple daal chawal that sustain us mere mortals.

So unfortunately the Ministers and Powers that Be have an advantage over us and we will have to starve till the Traders lift their strike.
