If you think that you have experienced everything in life, there are no more pains left. Try a private bus to haridwar from delhi.
The bus fare oscilates somewhere from 100 to 250 Rs. depending upon how idiotic you look like. The time when the bus will start from delhi is unknown.
I have had the worst experience last summer , paying 225/- , sitting in the middle of the 5 seater in the last row with my neighbour complaining that he had paid 165/- for a seat. You’ll feel that you better be dead and after every mile stone it always seems that haridwar is still 160 kilometers more to go. The distance of 205km covered in about 6 hours making the avg speed to be 35...
I think its rightly decided for the elderly who await there final destination to travel to haridwar and wash their sins and leave for the heavenly abode but who knows they may even pass away in the way to haridwar....
