(Continued from previous issue)
In this final installment, get face to face with many more people inhabiting HSR Layout.
By ZAHID H JAVALI
14th Species: This species loves to occupy prominent public service posts but when asked to do their job, they blame their busy work and non-cooperation from fellow residents.
15th Species: This species loves to work for the people and like the adulation that comes with it.
16th Species: These guys are completely political. If they hear anyone say anything about their party or party worker, they defend or deride the opposition. When that doesn’t work, they just vanish without prior notice.
17th Species: This kind does not like to be criticised. They will just quit the group and go away. Such closed minds are dangerous to society.
18th Species: Only when it is right up their alley will they be more vocal about the issue at hand. Otherwise, don’t expect any response from them.
19th Species: They have innumerable personal issues that they pile on the nearest neighbour who is gutsy enough to solve them.
20th Species: These are observers. They neither like the spotlight nor are they opinionated about anything in general. They just like to know the trending news, so they are abreast of the latest laws governing their neighbourhood.
21st Species: This is totally aligned with its linguistic group and tries to push for its culture or cult group whenever and wherever they can. For example, getting its group of members to come with placards that identify their ethnic group, at a protest venue. Such narrow-minded people can never be called Indians.
22nd Species: These guys like to do things on their own. They don’t like to delegate because they know that no one can match the commitment and selflessness they exude. Such people end up becoming foot soldiers for others who love to use them for their selfish ends.
