CABLE CAR OPERATORS DEMAND CARS
Ilanam Uluk, 27th Sitamgar
Cable car operators in this tourist resort are up in arms against the authorities for not providing them with cars. They say that the resort is known for its cable cars but, right now, there are cables only, no cars.
The Secretary of the Ilanam Uluk Cable Car Aaprate Karne Waale Kaarigaron Ki Ekikaran Samiti (IUCCAKWKKES), Mr. Syu Qumr, told your correspondent that they have been operating these cables without cars for the last fifteen and three quarter moons very patiently, in the hope that the authorities would see their difficulties and provide cars, but it has not happened so far. “You see, initially, without cars, we got very novel and brilliant idea to suspend the tourists from steel hooks attached to the cables and drag them from end to end for a small fee and show them the scenery from bahut upar se. It became very popular like bungee jumping and we were thinking of calling this sport ‘jangee bumping’. But, last season, some spoilsport tourists refused to get hooked, giving silly excuses like ‘hook poking’, ‘our eyes not opening’, ‘very very afraiding’, and also they put some drivel into the heads of other innocent and co-operative tourists and thereby our business came to total standstill. Now all tourists are buying the ticket only after checking whether car is there. No car, no buy ticket, no business. So we want cars. Without cars, what are we ? We are only cable aaprators – therefore, if the authorities are not providing cars, we will aaprate only the cable and we will show phoren channels. So please give cars soon.” The authorities have promised help before the next new serial starts.
