Officially Indian

Today I went to the Foreign Registration Office and got my Indian Residency papers. I’m official. I had to take a train there, in my “first class” car:

it was crowded. At the station:

It was also crowded (click on the pic above as it was taken with my friends camera – good quality). We went to the government office where they hate spitting:

In the pic to the right, the dunce cap is actually an old school fire extinguisher. No idea how it works but it looks 60 years old.

After a few hours filling out forms in triplicate, they told me to come back in two hours to pick up my documents. So we took a walk around town, here’s Victoria Station:

And a Mosquito Proof Well.
