IS DELHI OWNED BY NEHRU FAMILY
This is a killer missile from Preet K S Bedi on FBGoing from Rajghat to the airport in Delhi? That’s easy.Having ruminated over the havoc one rogue sperm can cause after seeing the samadhis of Nehru, Indira, Rajiv and Sanjay Gandhi, head southwards.
If after 5 minutes you find the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium to your left, you will know you are on the right path. Turn right and head westwards. Avoid Rajiv Chowk; it may be too crowded. Turn left and find yourself in Lutyen’s Delhi; enjoy the drive. After crossing Sonia Gandhi’s house, hit Moti Lal Nehru Marg with Rahul Gandhi’s house to the left. From there to Indira Gandhi Smark is the matter of a couple of minutes.
Keep driving westwards past Nehru House at Teen Murthi House, Nehru Library, Nehru Planetarium and Nehru Yuvak Kendra. Drive around the Nehru Park and Nehru Rose Garden and turn right. Its more or less a straight road now till you hit Indira Gandhi Road and finally the Indira Gandhi Airport.
Should you find this route too old-world Lutyens there is an option. Don’t turn right after Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, keep going straight till you hit the Nehru Stadium, turn right, cross the Indira Gandhi Paryavaran House and Rajiv Gandhi Avionics Museum. Continue going south, avoid the crowded Nehru Lane to your left and Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Hospital to your right. Turn right at the Nehru University. Keep headed west till you hit the Indira Gandhi Road which leads to the Indira Gandhi Airport.
If you have time and are in the mood to see real Delhi, take a short detour after Nehru Stadium and check out the chaos of Nehru Place, turn right and go past Nehru Apartments to your left. But avoid the temptation of checking out the Indira Gandhi Open University though its only a hop, step and jump from Nehru Place cos the area is far too crowded and u may miss ur flight.
Google is designed by humans after all and can sometimes get confused with too many Nehrus and Gandhis. If you find yourself facing a board that says Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar, Sanjay Gandhi Hospital or Sonia Vihar, know ye, that you have made a mistake and have definitely missed your flight.
