Have you recently visited Delhi airports, domestic or international? If yes, you might got the real taste of service there. Both the airports are under massive renovation and the place has become very user-unfriendly. While coming from Delhi side, you are on the highway and you do not know where to turn. Once you reached the airport to receive somebody or to flying out- there are very few signages to guide you. Very few gates to enter, no body to ask something about you are frentically trying to know.

If you are flying out of country and using Delhi Indira Gandhi International airport my only advice is start your journey for the airport hours in advance, may be 4 hrs. Somr body told me- keep 1 hour for luggage x-ray and check-in, 1 hour for immigration and security and one hr for boarding. This means you need to be at the airport gate 3 hrs in advance. If you have to park your vehicle and walk down to the gate add another 30 minutes or so. So it means you need clear 3 and 1/2 hours after you have reached the international airport in Delhi. Add to this the time necessary from your place of residence in Delhi or NCR to come to airport.

The politicians can do fire fighting but it is the scientists who have to take up this challenge.

You've heard this before: Digital cameras do all the work. You just push the button and great pictures magically appear. The better the camera, the better the photos. Isn't that right? Heck no!

The truth is that you can make great photos with a simple consumer point-and-shoot camera, or take lousy shots with the most expensive Nikon.
