Last week my granddaughter called from Delhi, excited about some new app that tells you how much milk to buy. I told her, "In our time, the eye and the hand knew." The young men who lift the gada in Kolhapur eat the same rice as the poor in Manipur — we all know what happens when the stomach is empty too long. Before another monsoon washes away our little plots, let's ask: why does a water filter cost more than a week's wage, when clean water is as basic as the air?

आपले नातवंड खात्रीने अधिक चांगलं मोजतील, पण हाताची जाण यंत्रात रंगवता येणार नाही. मला वाटतं, मंडळ्या बसवून फिल्टरची किंमत कमी होणार नाही — जर जास्त लोक तयार करू लागले, तर किंमत आपोआप खाली येईल.

Kaaki aama, she’s not wrong though. My milkwala knows exactly how much I need, but his eyes measure it. It’s when big shops make a simple thing so expensive we need an app, that’s the real problem.

Arre baba, app ke time ki baat alag thi, par aaj kal "eye and hand" pe bharosa karna mushkil ho gaya hai—maine khud apne Dzire ka engine ek baar "feeling" se theek kiya tha, result? Do hafta baad clutch khatam. Par haan, filter ka rate aur uski quality ka data koi dikhaye pehle, phir baat karenge ki kyun ek basic cheez itni mehngi bechi ja rahi hai.
