A very nice article in Times of India.
he goes on to say:
"We probably have too many smart people. But allow me, with my moderate intellect, to make one more assertion - we also have a lot of stupid people."
He says "Indian stupidity hotspot - our airports".
His last stupidity in airport takes the cake.

"Stupid situation number five is thrust on passengers arriving in India from abroad. After a long immigration queue to obtain a passport stamp, you queue up again as another official inspects the stamp. How stupid is that? You also write little slips of paper with a customs declaration, which is collected by a sleepy constable as you exit. Nobody ever looks at those slips. The constable often forgets to take them. What is the point of this? Has no one ever questioned this absolute stupidity?"
