I'm a half hour into what will be an onerous and labyrinthine all day affair: registering as a foreigner with the Indian government. I need to wait in line to receive a form, fill out the form, wait in line to make official copies, wait in line to have it signed by a low-level official and then wait in line again for rigorous scrutiny and signature from a high-level official, who is free to request any documents, in any number, that he wishes.
At least Delhi is relatively easy: in the south, this process can take 4 or 5 all day visits with the requirements changing each time.
Wish me luck.
