Tough Name for a Tough Job

[dj]

From today's New York Times

"The controversy finally brought action from Palaniappan Chidambaram, the home minister [of India]. Mr. Chidambaram, the federal government’s point man on New Delhi, has called on Delhi residents to improve their manners and curb spitting and public urination. Earlier this month, he ordered that the municipal government be placed under the direct authority of Sheila Dikshit, chief minister of the state government."
