My younger brother, *tombi*, spent six months running from one office to another for his study permit renewal — cost him two part-time jobs and a semester's worth of sleep. Meanwhile, the ones with the right connections get their *cittadinanza* stamped in a week. Makes you wonder who these queues are really meant to punish.

Arre bhai, you've touched a nerve. I've seen this same chakkar in our education department—the clerk with *sifarish* gets his file cleared in two days, while my student's father, an honest farmer, waits six months for a scholarship form to move from one table to another. These queues, I think, are not for fairness, they are a test of your patience, and a reward for those who know the right *darwaza* to knock on.
