Want to Drive a Cab in Mumbai - Language Skills a Must?

In one of the most ridiculous news of the day, the Maharashtra government has made it mandatory that cab drivers in Mumbai need to know how to read, write and speak Marathi. If you are rolling your eyes at where the priorities of the state government are, you are not alone.

Look at the bright side: a cab drive who is reading a Marathi newspaper or solving a Marathi crossword puzzle, while driving a cab. If he is involved in the accident, so be it. At-least he had the necessary language skills to be a cab driver.
