Watch Jugaad
The Indian spirit of jugaad never fails to impress. The Hindi word, which has even made it to the Oxford English dictionary, roughly translates to a clever hack. Jugaad is often celebrated as an example of the Indian spirit of resourcefulness and enterprise. It signifies doing more with less, or making the best out of meagre resources available. Videos and photos that embody the spirit of jugaad often go viral on social media and invariably garner praise for the innovation they display. This time, it is a jugaad for riding motorcycles on waterlogged streets that is winning a lot of appreciation on social media.
IAS officer Awanish Sharan praised their jugaad in a tweet shared on Tuesday. "Have never seen before!! 'Jugaad' at its best," he wrote while sharing the video. While it is not clear where the video was filmed, many on the microblogging platform suggested that it was recorded in Assam - a state that recently witnessed heavy flooding.
Jugaadis increasingly accepted as a management technique[2][3] and is recognized all over the world as an acceptable form of frugal engineering at peak.[4] Companies in Southeast Asia are adopting jugaad as a practise to reduce research and development costs.[5] Jugaad also applies to any kind of creative and out-of-the-box thinking or life hacks that maximize resources for a company and its stakeholders.
According to author and professor Jaideep Prabhu, jugaad is an "important way out of the current economic crisis in developed economies and also holds important lessons for emerging economies".[6]
It is pronounced as jugaad or jugaadh in Hindi, while in Punjabi and Urdu it is pronounced as jugaar, with a hard "R" sound that can be misunderstood by non-native speakers as jugaad.
Yamini Narayanan is ananimal life defender who argues that Jugaad is a key resource for progress in obstructionistenvironments like slow, inefficient, or corrupt bureaucracies and governance institutions,or when the activity is illegal. Depending on context, intention, and the informal politicaleconomy, jugaad can be legal, unauthorized, or even criminal. Yamini stresses thatjugaad covers a broad set of complex practices,argumentation, and innovations, that have also been used in concealments in the slaughter of cows throughoutIndia. [8]
One type of jugaad is a quadricycle, a vehicle made of wooden planks and old SUV parts, variously known as kuddukka and peter rehra in North India. However, jugaad could be used as a term for any low cost vehicle which typically costs around Rs. 50,000 (about US$800).[9] Jugaads are powered by diesel engines originally intended to power agricultural irrigation pumps. They are known for poor brakes, and cannot go faster than about 60 km/h (37 mph). The vehicle often carries more than 20 people at a time in remote locations and poor road conditions.
Though no statistical data is available, it is reported that there are a number of instances of failing brakes, requiring a passenger to jump off and manually apply a wooden block as a brake. As part of research for his 2013 book, Innovation and a Global Knowledge Economy in India, Thomas Birtchnell, a lecturer of Sustainable Communities at University of Wollongong, Australia, found that of 2,139 cases of road traffic casualties in 72 hours at J N Medical College hospital in Aligarh, 13.88% of pedestrian casualties were due to jugaad. It was stated by Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways Pon Radhakrishnan that jugaads do not conform to the specifications of a Motor Vehicle under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988.[10] These vehicles hence do not have any vehicle registration plate and they are not registered with the Regional Transport Office (RTO). Hence, no road tax is paid on them, neither there exists any official count of such vehicles.
Jugaads are not officially recognized as road-worthy, and despite a few proposals to regulate them, vote-bank politics have trumped safety concerns. The improvised vehicles have now become rather popular as a means to transport all manner of burdens, from lumber to steel rods to school children.[11] For safety reasons the Government of India has officially banned jugaad vehicles.[12]
Another type of jugaad called bike-rehra or motorcycle-rehri, a motorcycle, moped or scooter modified into motorized trikes are used in Indian Punjab province and its neighboring states. [13] [14]
Another type of jugaad called phat-phatri rickshaw or phatphatiya rickshaw, WWII-era Harley Davidson motorcycles modified into motorized trikes were earlier used in New Delhi.[15]
The variant of jugaad in Pakistan is a motorcycle made into a trike called chand-gari meaning "Moon Car" or chingchee after the Chinese company Jinan Qingqi Co. LTD who first introduced these to the market. [20]
A video of a bus driver's makeshift wiper using a water bottle in Uttar Pradesh is now viral on social media. Several social media users are left stunned after watching the jugaad wiper.
When it comes to jugaad, we Indians will never fail to stun the world with brilliant tricks. People with innovative ideas just make their daily work easy, and sometimes safe. Just as this video of a bus driver's makeshift wiper using a water bottle in Uttar Pradesh to drive during stormy rains is blowing the minds of netizens.

Sometimes their attempt to "loot" a seat turns deadly, even though they tried their best to get a seat. However, this time, netizens witnessed something crazy that has left them in a state of splits. In the latest video, a passenger who was not lucky enough to get a seat in the second class goes to the next level to make a desi jugaad. As the video starts, a male passenger is seen making arrangements for a makeshift seat for himself on a train. At the very next moment, the passenger took a bedsheet like cloth and attached one end to a luggage holder and the other to a seat. With the crazy innovation,
