The following slogans posted by Mr. Amitabh Thakur of Faizabad at (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/arkitectindia/message/5835 ), suggest a number of themes that constitute a part of our contemporary reality:
# Sign on a railway station at Patna :
Aana free, jaana free,
pakde gaye to khana free.

Don’t whistle at the girl going out from here.
She may be your grandmother!

Success is relative
More the success, more the relatives.
# Sign at a barber’s saloon in Juhu, Bombay :
we need your heads to run our business.
# A traffic slogan:

or else they never will be…..
# One popular SMS these days :
Its God’s responsibility to forgive the terrorist
organizations It’s our responsibility to arrange the meeting between
them and god.”
