A Dog’s Birthday
Birthdays are special day for human beings. But, what about dogs ? Do they deserve a celebration ? They do , if you ask a dog lover and don’t if you ask a dog-hater. Some people always hate dogs no matter whatever the circumstances. But, dogs are a man’s/woman’s best friend.

I will share a secret with you…even after spending 33 years in Aryavarta, I had not tasted the great Alphonso …the primary reason was that our farmers with generous help from politicians used to dispatch 25,000 tonnes of top-quality mangoes to European Union countries as well as Gulf countries.
