Nice article covered all the stuff like Cockroaches,rats, dirty toilet and uncomfy seats, non functional charging points. I think only thing missing is secular protest on communal use of wifi(like tweeting about Modi/liking Vishwaroopam page).

Yes, but the main objective of this set was to make a simple point :) …and any further complication of the series would’ve diluted it, no? :)
