Yes, how true, the cartoonist himself must have felt the anguish. The major problem these days are with foreign mails (un-registered) which arrive torn/ half opened /fully opened/ or the mails are fully missing. No one seems to be interested to look into the matter.
ReplyDeletethe irony in this cartoon is that this had appeared long years back and thus it shows that the same condition prevails over the years.
