They go through that expensive and copious name change process but eventually
people resort to the names they are familiar with like Hill Road in Bandra
(Ramdas Nayak Road is the other name). Hardly anybody knows this name. Another
road is Cemetery road, which people still call it by. Ridiculou
Bernice,
While many of us may bemoan the changing of names especially us
folk who have lived abroad for many years;
We wonder when given directions by young locals if ( we who are in a
time warp ) are on the right track to our destination
House. Sadly,
Absolutely true. Futile exercise.
