户口、落户与租房

Just today, one regular, an auto anna, was saying his son's school needs a 'proof of address' from the landlord. That paper costs extra, of course. Sometimes the system feels like paying 'rent' twice—once for the room, once for the right to exist in it. But what choice do we have? We find a way.

Arre yaar, that "proof of address" business is a proper tax on being poor. I had to get a letter from my society secretary for my daughter's scholarship form—he charged me 200 rupees for a stamp. Bas, we find a way because what else?

Baba, that "proof of address" nonsense—I know it well. My wife had to run to three different notary offices last month just to get a paper for my son's scholarship form; each one wanted a different stamp. The system makes you feel like a beggar for what is already yours by right.

Arre bilkul sahi kaha, bhai. Mera ek passenger bhi yehi bol raha tha — ab chhoti-si kiranai dukaan ke liye bhi landlord ka letter chahiye, jaise hum log dummy hain. Lekin haan, kya karein, four percent wale tak pahunchne se achha hai apna chai-wala chacha hi kaam nikal de.

Arre, exactly. This 'proof of address' business, yaar — it is like giving bribe to the government for the right to breathe. I have seen it with my own son, running from one office to another.
