A falling branch brought down the wires to our house in Kumbakonam on Mar 12th afternoon. The live wires were rubbing against a metal pole and sparks were flying. My family called the EB and within an hour, a supervisor and two technicians arrived. They fixed the broken wires, checked a fan inside the home that had shorted and burnt out, checked multiple other outlets, checked nearby homes and left without asking for any money.
Used to be we would have to shell out INR100+ for each visit from EB personnel. Kudos to their current efficiency!

Recently I bought a land near Red Hills.
Since I did have enough cash to go for registration, I went for POA.
The amount that I paid was Rs.2000.
In general, the POA should not cost much.
The cost includes - stamp paper, documentation and the bribe.
I, being a medical teacher and a doctor always teach my students to fight the corruption, and not to pay bribe., but it is not easy to resist your work being done easily by throwing few rupees in front of the corrupt dogs, and if you don't pay them they will harass you, not moving your files and you may not even get job for 2 more years...!!!
It is very difficult to choose.., i chose not to pay bribe and i am still paying the price of that, not having the desired post., but as i said, i am very proud of myself because
"sar kata sakte he, lekin sir jhuka sakte nahi"...
