News Stories

About a week ago i have opted to subscribe to the local paper here (The Times Of India) mostly because i felt like i was loosing touch with the international world. Well my 100 rupee ($2.50) for a month subscription was well worth it to get some great local news as well. From now on i will be relaying some of the funny articles i come across. Yesterday had a great one. A local Mysore traffic cop was beaten by an angry mob at a traffic light when he was supposedly harassing an old women. He was beaten pretty hard but finally made his escape in a cab while some other police men a few blocks away were too scared to go help him.

Other great headlines in the past days were: Woman marries soon to be husband's brother when he himself was late to his own wedding.

Stay tuned for more :)
