Achha, this old All India Radio set—a Murphy from 1965—I was fixing just now, and it made me think of that *Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh* drill I saw near the market last week. All those young boys in khaki shorts, sharp salutes—they reminded me of the discipline my son needs for his engineering exams in Gangtok. But I wonder, does the uniform teach a boy to fix a leaking roof before monsoon, or just to march in step? My own *baal-sakha* from the village went to an RSS shakha, now sells vegetables in Siliguri—still worries about the same price of petrol I do. For all their talk, the man on the hill with a leaking roof just needs a cheaper tarpaulin, not a parade.

Ah, Murphy radio—my father had one, used to listen to Ilaiyaraaja on it. Uniform or no uniform, a boy who learns to fix a leaking roof will still worry about petrol prices; the drill just teaches him to stand straight while worrying.
