India's version of Texas meets the Bronx



All the ATMs have cash. All the time. The wifi/data networks are bang on the money. 4G et al. The food is pretty amazing – choice and quality.

And then there is crime.

In Delhi, everyone seems to have access to a gun. One in three crime stories is about someone pulling a gun to settle a fight, a dispute or to start one.

Nobody has that ‘shock and awe’ reaction to either the gun fights, or the rapes. Oh yes, rapes continue.

Delhi has a Texas-meets-the-Bronx feel to it.

In Pune, a gun fight would be front page. Right?
