Ganesh Naik's family moves around with 6-7 goons (bodyguards).....thats because he is s'hit-scared as he fears for his life for all the past activities..!!!...Though even now he's the undisputed Lord of Navi Mumbai....no stone can be turned without a bribe to him!!!....
Along with Bhai Thakur/Hitendra Thakur, he is one of the RICHEST men in India..!!!....In the Vasai-Virar belt, upto Dahanu, ALL builders and constructors have to shell out 30% to Bhai Thakur/Hitendra Thakur...!!!
It is interesting to view how channels report the fury of rain leading to disruption of life in Mumbai,Gujarat & Calcutta.It is heavy rains have lead to cancellation of trains & flights to & from Calcutta with low lying areas getting flooded(as if otherwise every thing in state of red monkeys work perfectly).The rains have exposed the tall claims of BMC & Gujarat govt with life coming to a stand still. The state govts are doing nothing to help the public who are suffering from last 6 hrs.These jokers ,especially NDTV,starNews & aajTk should be taken to press council for mockery of reporting & their licences should be revoked for biased reporting.

RE:SINGAPORE HAS DONT IT,WHY CANT INDIA ??

Rainfall pattern in Singapore is completely different from that in Mumbai. In Singapore, it rains heavily at the most for 2 hours in a day and normally does not rain again rest of the day. It does not rain intensly for the whole day or days as in Mumbai. So Singapore does not have the same problems like Mumbai.
Anyway, it is quite stupid even to try to compare Singapore whose popluation and polulation density is much much lesser, with Mumbai!

Bacuase in Singapore the illegal migrants are posted into Changi Prison. In mumbai we have high influx of 'Bhaiyyas' frome UP and Bihar who have made this city as a stinking toilet.
Moreover you do not find people sitting beside the railway track for responding their morning call in Singgapore.The majority chinese people in singapore are diciplined and abide by rules & regulations. Whereas the Indian mentality is primarily dirty and full of negligence & carelessness. They recite a 'Bhajan' in the train and the next moment after that start quarraling with each other. They say 'Bharat mata ki Jai' and 'Vande Mataram' and at they spit on the same Mata by chewing tobacco & bettle nut.You see any publiv toilet at any railway station in India..it reflects well about the Indian mindset.There is no place/wall at the railway station/public place where these idiots have left spitting.A country where monkey,dogs ,snakes and other animals are worhshipped cannot progress ...Never
Dear friends global warming is a true phenomenon. If you don't believe it, it's left to you. But please don't blame others for what they believe.............atleast in this case you are in darkness. Open your eyes my fellow earthlings. We have done enough damage to our fragile planet. Please go through this link http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/basicinfo.html which has enough scientific evidences about global warming,its cause and effect. Thank you for your co-operation. Lets's start doing our part to save our planet.

Since the day the planet earth was born from a fireball (if you believe the big bang theory), it has been cooling down. The process has been continuing for an estimated 4500 million years. In between, the cooling curve has reversed for brief periods lasting over 20000-25000 years. There is enough proof of this in the scientific literature. These are called periods of global warming. The earth got over the last ice age (ice age can roughly be defined by the existence of glaciers way below the ice line) about 11000 years ago - and technically that is when the present global warming started. We, your fellow earthlings, didnt have much to do with the onset of the global warming, nor are we, with our present level of technology, in a position to alter, halt or even slow down the warming in any appreciable way. We may think we are helping the cause when we switch off a few lights or walk a few kilometers instead of riding cars, but it requires more than this to change the ways of mother nature. "Our fragile earth" is not half as fragile as we think it is. It is strong enough to survive and live on even after a nuclear holocaust, and very patiently give rise to new life forms for millions of years to come. You and I wont be here to observe that, but even then this periodic warming cycles will continue till the earth is reduced to an icy planet, which is the inevitable end. Climatic changes brought on by global warming will last for another 11000 years no matter what we do or dont do
