Made in !India

Recently, I was travelling to Delhi from Bangalore. What I saw there, brought a wry smile to my face. At the airport lounge (the area where you need to wait for boarding after the security check) near Gate No. 2, there was a snack-shop. And EVERYTHING there was imported... i.e. Made in !India. I specifically asked the worker there whether they have any Indian products... and he simply said NO!!!

I had expected this but then reality and expectation are two different things. And we call ourselves progressive... we are moving towards development... Sigh!!!
