My first week in Ludhiana

I came to Ludhiana by train from Delhi. The capital city train station is probably the most untidy station I visited until now. My fellow office mate received me and drove me to my new room/apartment. Ludhiana is big, roads with lots of potholes, and crowded at some places. On the way to my apartment in car, I observed no city buses and noticed only interstate buses. I felt that Hyderabad has one of the admirable public transportation facilities in India. I started missing our city's green color and high tech city buses. My friend drove me to a mall this Saturday. The mall is big, centrally air cooled and visitors seem to have a sense of fashion especially young. People in Ludhiana are friendly and found Punjabi very similar to Hindi. The food served here is all chapattis and parathas to which I am not used to. I just finished my first week; my body is adjusting slowly to the sudden changes around me.
