Thank you Ayadhya, CWG. I can finally breathe!

After a whole month of being stuck in traffic jams, waiting for hours for tables at restaurants and getting crushed in giant man-breasts of fellow passengers of the overcrowded Metro (I am Jack's claustrophobia) I can finally breathe! 

For the last the last week roads are empty in central Delhi, you can park wherever you want in Connaught Place and Metro looks like a Disneyland ride. And it all because of Bharat Sarkar's paranoia. Faced with a problem of any kind, trust the Indian Government to apply its default setting response- a lot of men with with a lot of guns. Faced with two major challenges in one week, the government has gone into an overdrive of paranoid schizophrenia turning entire New Delhi into one giant airport terminal where strip search is mandatory. 

Thanks to their efforts, Central Delhi has overnight become this incredibly peaceful town of a couple of thousands where you can see the blue sky and see the birds chirping. As M J Akbar has suggested enjoy an empty Delhi while it lasts, just stay away from the Commonwealth Games or any Hindu organization offices.
