Knew about most of the stuff but "Cycling in Kolkata" was a new for me.

What they don't understand is that, the more you restrict/ban stuff, the more people get fascinated and attracted by it.

Most of the stuff does not make sense either. However, it is not just India. For example, gay sex is banned in Saudi arab too.

Ban cycling makes perfect sense considered from the right angle! Who are those making the laws, huh? I just somehow guess that some influential people, the same people which can afford cars and who are annoyed by high bicycle-traffic. Hey policeman, clean me the streets!

In this wonderful country you can select the government at age of 18 but you are not allowed to drink alcohol till the age of 21.

The legal drinking age in many places e.g. Delhi, Mumbai is 25 (It's 30 in Wadhra district). And, the legal marital age is 21 for males and 18 for females.

Oh! You are a 18 year old girl, you sure can be trusted with marriage and having/raising a kid but you sure cannot be trusted with booze!!

I have heard it said of India that there are so many laws, that there are no laws.
