in one way we really love these traffic jams just to get more time to listen ANUJ anuji..isn't it TRUE?? these cribbings are just a part of life and cant live with out them.
welcome to the confusion..
Anuji,
there are many things over there for which you will surely fall in love:)
as you are missing these few things there, you will surely miss many things when you return(if you really plan to:-p)
Enjoy buddy..
