The Acid test that I propose for our Nation before we could dare to host and boast of an international event of any kind:
· The day Indians can maintain the etiquettes of queue system we are ready. Get into a queue. If there is no pushing, pulling, bypassing, spitting, nudging, poking, feeling, and mingling of sweat then we are ready.· The day we stop picking our nose, scratching our crotch, farting in public, we are ready.
· The day an average Indian official’s waist line is not a potbelly, we are ready.
· If we have people stopping at unmanned traffic lights that flash red, we are ready.
· If our public toilets are flushed every time they are used, and flushed by the user herself or himself and not by the janitor in attendance, we are ready.
· The day we stop cleaning our surroundings before an official’s visit but rather clean up after the visit, we are ready.
· The day our traffic is not held up because somebody-actually a nobody- decides to hold private processions on public roads, we are ready.
· The day our country has lesser chokes in our drainage system than the number of BRAINs DRAINed, we are ready.
