The misfits, rebels, trouble makers, the round pegs in the square holes. You glorify or vilify them, agree or disagree with them but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things. How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or, gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels? And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius because the people, who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Against Ban on Jugaads in Rajasthan

Let me go against the current waves and yell out I am against the decision of Rajasthan Government of banning JUGAADS. I do understand the concerns of Rajasthan government about the road safety but at the same time I don't think that banning Jugaads will help. Rajasthan Government should also understand how Jugaads are helping poor farmers in rural Rajasthan where the technologies haven't reached and people trying to tackle the problem of transportation with locally made rural Nanoes. State government must have read these article before reaching to a decision on banning Jugaads.
