monsoons
by Aleya Jung on Aug 02, 2005 07:42 PM

Calamities arising from natural disasters can be minimised. Bombay for the most part remains an unplanned city, reclaimation of land continues, buildings continue to be constructed, new highways are being constructed, yet there are no visible signs of the city government taking steps to control water logging, one has urinate in one of mumbai's bylanes for it to get flooded, so how in Gods name can they combat a monsoon of such proportions?? dont blame the rain, blame poor planning, blame corruption, blame overcrowding, blame poor garbage disposal, blame not only the city officials who run the city but the inhabitants who occupy and elect these officials.
