I am not Gujarati. I am advocating statehoold to Bombay. Else, better give it to Gujarat.
Tax payers money is being wasted to pay off interest for Govt. Bonds placed with private parties. How do you think Avinash Bhosle becase a big shark. From hearsay, he was the agent for selling govt bonds on behalf of Shiv Sena and NCP.

Riots has taken place in Maharashtra also. (Bhiwandi, Malegaon, Solapur, Nanded.....) People and children had died and are dying due to poverty and malnutrition in Maharashtra. Debt ridden farmers are committing suicide in Vidarbha. Dalit women are gangraped and their families are being killed in Maharashtra. Naxals are ruling the roost in parts of Maharashtra. All sugar cooperatives are in deep debt in Maharashtra. Telgi flourished in Maharashtra. Most corrupt politicians are in Maharashtra.
Now my dear friend, please compare the financial resources that BMC is allocated with that of Surat and Ahmedabad! Ahmedabad suffered riots, but still is growing and flourishing. Surat suffered floods and plague. Surat has overcome both and one of the most developing and flourishing cities in India.
Make Bombay and independent state or give it to Gujarat.

Fauji, As I have stated in my later posts. This is a problem clearly linked to corrupt politicians who are omni-present throughout the country.Every state has its own issues which are clearly not dealt with the exactness that it requires. The issues that Mumbai faces are unique to it and gets highlighed as it receives one of the heaviest rainfalls compared to any metro and also has bigger intra-city rail and road network. An independant statehood like delhi might probably alleviate the issue as funds can be more concentrated for development of Mumbai.

I am not Gujarati. I have travelled almost all the states of India. Gujarat, undoubtedly, is one of the best. Maharashtra totally pales in comparison.

how much state you have seen in India? Gujarat is the only best state in India. First go and see UP, Bihar, M.P. Even Delhi has the electricity problem.

Almost every Non-Mahrashtrain community has contributed to the destruction of Mumbai. Why blame Maharashtrians. They are a minority in Mumbai. And if Mumbai is given to Gujrat,even a strong man like Narendra Modi will also get fed up with huge migrant population of Bihar & UP who have done maximum illegal constructions.

The BMC and the local government very well know about the Mumbaites madness on Bollywood & Shiv Sena. They are happy about these peoples progress, shows, awards ceremonies,film gossips, Bal's next attack, underworld news, etc. The media there projects this more throughout the year than the worst civic problem. They compare with Beijing & New York when they talk about Mumbai. Shame. Only the people should change. They should start ignoring BOllywood, stop the craze, look towards civic amenities, make the govt commit to improve such things and do a Bandh fr this cause. I am sure things will improve in the next 5 years. Otherwise nobody can save Mumbai.

Yes only money seems to be going down the drain not the rain water.

oh, so bill is going to open his gates for Vilasrao's drain water to flow, right?
The pathetic situation of flooding in Mumbai point out the weaknesses of BMC and our government system. The central government every year sanctions crores of rupees for development of Mumbai, but the development hardly takes place, but the money goes to the pockets of corrupt BMC officials and Politicians. We are paying toll tax for roads which are having pot holes, Electricity for havng load shedding, Transportaion for inefficient/poor services. As an Indian citizen does anybody knows when the amount is sanctioned to state government by central government for city development, how it is used and does anybody carry out the audit of same and disclose to public????
Feel pathetic for our nation for ruining a Financial Capital City (Mumbai)of India.

All our planners, thinkers, and we ourselves should try our best to start living in natural conditions, giving a small space for concrete structures to stand and more space for rain water to be imbibed into soil where ever it strikes the ground. If we make hundreds of hectares of land concretized or barren, no doubt we are inviting runoff, consequently floods. At last me have developed to such an extent that we have forgotten to save and protect the three most important elements for our living that - pure air, potable water and unadulterated food. Except this we are getting all other thing on this earth, now. These things nature has provided us. But we destroyed it arrogantly to hurl the flag of material development. At least now everybody should try to give less importance to live in concrete structures and more importance to live in natural locales, that is within our residential or office boundaries. When 75% of living space is covered with vegetation and only and hardly 25% with bloody concrete, the human existence can be guaranteed for the future. Otherwise the human existence itself will be questionable. More planting - less mining, more naturality - less artificiality, is demanding. Try to minimize all kinds of pollution at all three stages like mining, manufacturing and utilization levels, as whatever we are now noticing is due to global warming. The main culprit here is our unending wants, those demand manufacturing, that in turn demand mining.
I agree with you completely. But why only 2 days, they deserve at least 2 years, preferably in the filthiest lock up overflowing with flood borne sewage, as well as exemplary punitive fines. Lets hope Chief Justice Mr Swatanter Kumar does something.
