    how come Mallu is staffing this counter in Namma Mangala Uru? could they not find a local person for this job...

    the wound he is displaying does not look like assault...it may be an abrasion with some hard object...

    to avoid conflicts with local drivers, this guy can be sacked and a local guy appointed.

But my humble request to you all is kindly execute some patience in your profession. Be it waiting for customers or driving around the city.
