Ludhiana Calling

Post by piyushpdsingh » Wed Nov 08, 2006 3:52 am

A city resident was in for a big surprise when after tendering documents for renewal of an arms license at the ‘suvidha’ counter in Mini Secretariat here, the receipt clerk asked for a contact number where the status of his application could be communicated. Taking it as a mere formality, he gave out his cell number but still under the belief that he would have to make many rounds of the office before his renewed arms license was given to him. Unlike what normally happens in the government offices, the applicant received an ‘SMS’ on the date given to him for collecting the license which said that his application was being processed. After another couple of days, he received yet another SMS intimating him that his license had been renewed and could be collected on any working day

I got the same surprise when I got that mail from Himachal Pradesh forest department. Feel nice to hear that things are changing for good.

Dev,

Since you are so bored I could have that jolly bunch from the Income Tax department call on you? At your convenience, ofcourse.

Covered that old sap. Just had my taxes filed plus paid all due service tax and guess what I shan't be gainfully employed after the 24th anyway, so I 've got nothing to fear ;-). Then again since I am so pain sensitive I may just remember a friend in B'lore who was gonna splurge on a second car.

Regards,

Dev
