Thanks for the links,Herr Kaspar.I visited one of the elite clubs of the city yesterday with one of my superior officers as he has just joined it and needed my help with the joining formalities. The membership fee itself is close to half a million rupees. I saw people wearing coat and tie and imitating the British (who had originally founded the club) in extreme summer heat. Some of them were grotesquely obese,other were almost senile and yet seemed to me to be obsessed with pomp and show.
All of this extravagance and for what exactly? I do not think that they represent any kind of brotherhood.In fact,I am quite certain that most of them must be very,very jealous and contemptuous of each other covertly( and overtly).
