Era Of The Saffron Socialites

Some members of the press had their own passing gripe against the Bharatiya Janata Party. Atal Behari Vajpayee lives two doors away from the Press Club on Raisina Road and the day before he was sworn in as Prime Minister, Black Cat commandos took over the street. Speculation was rampant that the Delhi media would be deprived of its daily tipple. To which the photographers had a ready answer—they usually do. Get a bottle of Black Label, it was suggested, and invite Atalji to share it.
