the passport dilemma
I know that getting a passport is a hell lot of job..but didn know that to get an application form would be such a nightmare. Yesterday, out of the blue, I was struck by this idea of applying for a passport. Its sad.. but such things don happen as soon as you get a 'whim and fancy' for it. So after knowing that one can only get the application form from the head post office of our beloved U.T., I decided that the 'deed' should be done NOW!
And now, I personally thank the government of India for making Pondicherry a beautiful but SMALL place. Because if i was made to walk even one yard more to reach the 'goal post', i would have been turned into a mirage in the heatwave which has captured the planet, taken it in its jaws and is shaking the hell out of it. (If anyone is foolish enough to ask the question "why I didn take an auto?", let me tell those oblivious creatures that auto fares are so high at Puducherry that if you just save the money spent on the auto, who knows, maybe one day you would be able to buy yourself a Boeing..)
However, I was not able to break the tradition of being given the wrong direction at Puducherry...and landed myself at the BSNL Sanchar Nigam..wondering to myself "funny that now-a-days they are providing passport forms here!", which they didnt, of course. I had to 'step back' before reaching my goal. But after all the dilemmas, the status of the venture turns out to be: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
