Rains
Our world spins with purpose and precision, however sometimes it takes the rain Gods to turn things topsy-turvy.
It is raining since last night. Potholes have reappeared (in Pune they are never lacking), vehicles are moving at a snail's pace, and there are unscheduled power cuts.
Low-lying areas of the city have been flooded with water released from dams near Pune.
It takes me 25-30 minutes to reach home and it took 65 minutes this evening. There was a major traffic jam, mid-way through, from Wadia College to Yerwada.
A power cut to disturb sleep early in the morning and then low voltage at home late in the evening.
