Sample answer: Describe a time when you had to wait in a long line Or Describe an occasion when you were standing in line

There are many times when I have waited in the queue. Actually waiting in queues is quite common in India. Here I would like to talk about a time when I have to wait for multiple hours.

when it was and what it was about

that was the time of demonetization when the Government declared that Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes would not be leal after a specific period. then everyone has to take his or her proof along with to exchange their notes with new currency.

how long the queue/line was

The first day when I was standing in queue everyone is tense about the news I stand in line for 4 hours which was very difficult without any facility like water or anything edible I was starving. so from the next day, I took my earphones, a water bottle, and some edible things to make myself comfortable. As per rules, one can change only 4000 only in a day so everyone came daily for the new currency.

how you felt about waiting in this long queue or line.

It was very irritating to stand in queue for hours. but I can understand the reason why the government takes such a step. Unfortunately, I had to do this 4-5 times that week. On the first day, no one knows what things are required.
