A comparison

Author:

Sir: Last month Indian Federal Minister Gopinath Munde died in a car crash while travelling to Delhi airport. He was travelling in a Maruti, an Indian version of Suzuki Mehran.

Can any of our ministers or bureaucrats ever think of travelling in such a small car? It seems that doctors have advised them not to sit in anything less than a Land Cruiser or a Pajero or something equivalent as it might hurt their back, which is of vital importance for the nation. The Indian economy and its reserves are almost 20 times that of Pakistan.
