Not every time money Works, sometimes all we need is a little ‘JUGAAD’

We Indians not only do the best jugaads possible but also take pride in it. And why shouldn’t we? Jugaad may apply to a creative and a quick work-around, a method that would break the laws, or a tool that could be used in such a way. It often signifies creativity like to make existing things work, or to create new ideas & things with inadequate resources. It’s all about being a little different from the rest of the world, following the unconventional ways of doing things.
