Delhi IAS officer's love for his dog

Dogs are among the oldest companions of humankind. It is undeniable that a dog owner can go beyond limits to keep their pet happy and healthy. The Indian Express broke the story of a Delhi IAS officer shunting athletes from practice at the Thyagaraj Stadium before 7 pm so that he could take his beloved pooch for a walk and a run. The report said the IAS officer forced officials to shut the stadium before the usual closing time.

Delhi’s Principal Secretary (Revenue) Sanjeev Khirwar walks his dog at the stadium for about half an hour every day.

“We used to train till 8-8.30 pm under lights earlier. But now, we are asked to leave the ground by 7 pm so that the officer can walk his dog on the ground. Our training and practise routine has been disrupted,” The Indian Express quoted a coach.

After the Express exclusive, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal ordered all stadiums to remain open for players till 10 pm. Reports said Khirwar has refuted the allegation and said he sometimes takes his dog for a walk but does not disrupt the routine practice of the players. Remember this is a country where an individual medal at the Olympics, the Asian Games or the Commonwealth Games or at world championships means a whole lot of different things.

With dog owners ready to go the extra mile, even if it means interrupting sports practice, it sure does mean they love their canine friends a lot. After all, what’s cuter than a well-fed pedigreed dog?

But the love of a dog to such an extent that one turns himself into a dog? Yes, you read it right! A Japanese man has hogged headlines after he spent Rs 12 lakh to transform himself into a dog. Rich people and their uncommon desires!

The man, Toko, did not want a celebrity look but a dog look. Reportedly, this was his lifelong dream and went on to spend some $15,700 to look like a Border Collie. The costume was designed by professional agency Zeppet which shared the information on Twitter. In a tweet, Zeppet wrote that Toko went through several rounds of meetings, fittings, and revisions for the costume.

The tweet in Japanese after its translation to English reads, ‘Dog modeling suit. At the request of an individual, we made a dog modeling suit. Modeled after a collie dog, it reproduces the appearance of a real dog walking on four legs like a real dog.’

Check out the tweet here:

Remember the journalism school dictum, when a dog bites a man it isn’t news and it is 72 points bold headline material when a man bites a dog. It’s even bigger when a man turns dog!

Text overlays on the video which reads Indians are brilliant.

The video was shared on March 16 on Instagram and it has got 609,782 views till now which are only increasing. Large number of social media users started commenting on the Instagram post where one person wrote India is not for beginners. One user said this fan works in the rain as well.

Another user said this innovation is doing the work of a table fan.  One Instagram user Shamoli recalled an incident when an auto rickshaw driver had installed a big piece of thermocol on the roof of the auto. She said when she asked the auto driver he replied that it was put inside the auto to provide insulation from the scorching sun.

One social media user said the auto driver can increase the effect of the DIY pipe by applying the Venturi effect. He suggested that the auto driver should decrease the size of the tube opening in the inside. He said this will cause the speed of air to increase as it goes through a construction, leading to a decrease in pressure and subsequently a drop in temperature as well.

One user Hiten thought that the pipe was being used as spittoon by the auto rickshaw driver. Another user joked that the man is using the pipe as a mike.
