It was the best of time for few people and it was the worst of time for many people. It was the best of time for criminals and thugs and it was the worst of time for the innocent and law-abiding people. It was-the best of time for the corrupt politicians and it was the worst of time for the voters who elected them.

Custodians of law were violating the law and order of the land offending the innocents. Economy of the country was dwindling but the politicians, their henchmen and the so-called intellectuals deceived the masses.

International standard time was advanced by one hour and later it was reduced by half an hour. Now we are doing every thing according to wrong time. No wonder why things were going wrong with wrong predictions etc.. Although the time was advanced, it didn’t help in anyway make political leaders punctual.

It is time to put the clock back by half an hour.
