Say what you will, but the DDA flats of Gautam Nagar have style. Climbing the steps through ascending levels of that geometric, stained yellow concrete public housing architecture of the 1960s, past ingenious alterations and illegalities, past urban gardens and rampant creepers, past leftover Divali lights busted and dusty tangled with marigold garlands buzzing with flies, the DDA plies my mind with unshakeable, ecstatic visions of jugaadu modernity.
