...railway ticket offices to buy seats for the few train coaches that were air-conditioned. City employees demonstrated angrily for khuskhus curtains-spongy grass screens that cool the air when sprayed with water -for their office windows; municipal officials had to place a guard at the new water cooler to keep away outsiders, who flocked in to fill their jugs...
