The Power of Red Light

Now don't get me wrong, I am talking about the Red Light on top of a vehicle and not what we refer to as GJ, GB, SonaK, BPeth... It was 6:30 Pm and I was on my way to home sweet home from Kalina. Suddenly what I see is a mile long traffic jam near the Mumbai Airport. No one had a clue as to why we are stranded in the middle of the road. Cops were asking everyone to stop including an Ambulance, the noise of which was getting on to everyone's never. Can you guess what was the problem. A minister was late to the airport. Can you beat this. Common man was asked to wait so that a minister can catch his flight. The same minister who was elected by us. All we could see is a convoy where every car had a red light.. I always thought a red light is a sign that we should stop and not hurry. Guess i was wrong.

We all waited for an hour on the road to see our beloved minister go past us and we could do nothing. All I could say is its time that I fix a flag and a red light on my bike as well. :))))
