Visitor reviews Satire

“Arrived a week too late to cross it and a week too early for the inquiry.”
ZA Z. Ansari · Begusarai★★★★★
“Thirteen crore bought Begusarai one ribbon-cutting and one debris-clearing, in that order.”
OB O. Bhatia · Begusarai★★★★★
“Villagers are wading across the channel again. They were doing that before the bridge too, so continuity has been preserved.”
WL W. Lobo · Begusarai★★★★★
