Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Sunday, June 28, 2009

Protests are growing in Delhi over power cuts as the Indian capital remains in the grip of a heat wave.

The government of the northern state of Punjab has announced that its offices will shut early as it also attempts to deal with a similar power crisis.

In Delhi, police have been called to break up demonstrations outside the offices of electricity companies.

Hundreds of people turned up at the house of a state minister demanding a solution to the problem.

As residents wait for this year's delayed monsoon, it is getting hotter and hotter and the disruptions to power supplies are getting bigger and bigger.

" The Chief Minister of Delhi, Sheila Dikshit, has described the situation as grim. "

"Sheila Dikshit" explains a lot.

It's suppose to get to 100 degrees today in the San Fernando Valley in CA.

The first second I'm tempted to bitch about it today I'm coming back on this thread and reading how I could be packed in like a sardine with millions of others baking in hot, sweltering, humid, and smelly Delhhi with no electricity.

And your name could be Sheila.


Protests ?.....damn fools should get in & out of the sun.....

Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid day sun
