It is better to be illiterate......

In TN, the government has officially announced 5 hours power cut on daily basis. Its really pathetic that government could not forecast the power needs. The common people (especially those who have infants) are worst affected. Because of the power-cuts, diesel and petrol are not available. The petroleum minister says the fuel scarcity is because its all being used for power generator machines. Since diesel and petrol are in demand, all the consumables' prices have gone up. Just by making the rice available at Re.1, will not hide any of these troubles. Here the politicians celebrate the announcement of Rice at Re.1. But people.....

Better be illiterate. So that you will not understand that you are being cheated.
