Enemies Within India Are More Harmful Than Vehicular Pollution

It's NOT vehicular pollution, but the 'desh todo'/ 'enemies within India' brigade which are far far far far more harmful to 'true Indians'. 
Get real, faster the better.

PUC of my LML Vespa (My WB38A0582) on 2022-10-12

My 31 yrs young LML Vespa 150 NV (mid 1991 model) has surely clocked over 2,00,000 kms (might be even 2.5 lakh kms, too). 

On Wednesday 2022-10-12, I got the PUC done at my regular PUC outlet attached with Auto Super Service, a HPCL filling station near my house in Kolkata. Prior to inserting the stick in the silencer, the PUC boy was apprehensive if my workhorse would pass the test. Once his system was switched on he was stunned to see how phenomenally my baby performed. 

And still there's so much of hoopla in India about scaringly expensive electric vehicles (EV) and scrapping of automobiles above 10 yrs (for diesel)/ 15 yrs (for petrol). 

Dumping the enemies within India behind bars is a far better idea than trashing old vehicles. True Indians will be able to breathe better and live longer!

Valve stem caps are important

How good is your tyre knowledge? 

A valve stem cap is important for the Schrader valve because if one is not fitted, dirt and moisture can enter the inside of the valve stem, potentially jamming or contaminating the sealing surfaces and causing a leak.

Durga Puja 2022 - Maha Saptami outing

Maha Saptami, Sunday 2022-10-02. 

I left my place in the vicinity of Salt Lake Stadium at 3.15 pm with daughter and wife for Puja hopping in my VW Vento. I was back home at 9.15 pm after visiting a handful of the popular Durga Puja pandals in South Kolkata. 

Visited Bhowanipore (starting with Paddapukur and onwards to Chakraberia, Northern Park, Abasar, Golmaath, etc). Then drove to Southern Avenue, easily parked my Vento on a lane besides Nav Nalanda School. Walked down to the pandals of Mudiali, Lake, Shiv Mandir, etc. Finally, drove back to Salt Lake Sector 3. Visited the HA, HB, GD Block association puja mandaps. Then, stuffed ourselves with goodies from Mio Amore at IA256. 

Bought chicken biriyani for dinner at home from my regular joint in Beliaghata. 

Roads were unbelievably empty. Parking the car was far more easy than on normal non-festive days. 

Total distance covered was exactly 30 kms.
