Indianism of the day: 'seized of'
From a story on Bangalore Buzz, this odd construction:
Sometimes I get the idea that people are just making things up as they go along.
The State Government is yet to take a decision on the final alignment of the Byappanahalli-Mahatma Gandhi Road section of the proposed Rs. 6,300-crore Bangalore Metro Rail, work on which is being inaugurated on Saturday by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.What?
But Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. (BMRC) said the Government was seized of the matter.
Sometimes I get the idea that people are just making things up as they go along.
