Auto-experience...

Any mention about Delhi is incomplete without mentioning the Auto's, Blue line's and the Metro which are the lifeline of the city! I always prefer travelling by auto(as metro is still under construction in South Delhi),it not only saves time, but is also quite cheap :) Yeah one caveat though,the auto drivers hardly run by meter and tend to overcharge also at times!

Yesterday, while getting back from the domestic airport i met this Auto-driver who not only ran by meter but also had some interesting displays inside and outside the auto :) See it for yourself...




It felt really good travelling with this guy. He had just one line for whatever i was asking him "NO problem" and this is what i loved about him! He has decided to abide by his principles no matter what comes, and that iteslf inspires a lot....

When i offered to give him a tip, he simply refused because he said he never accepts tips from a student! This all might sound very logical but here in Delhi, it is a rare thing...

In my excitement i forgot to click his picture... But this memory is always going to stay with me :) After all it is a feel good memory...

Keep smiling and breathing,
Siddharth

These kind of auto drivers are a rarity in Delhi...I wish the MCD would give him some incentive so that he would serve as a role model for others! Delhi would be a much better place then!:)
