Disaster management
by Ankit Agrawal on Aug 11, 2005 12:19 AM

A city which pays more than 30% of Total National revenues collected?
A city which attracts maximum FDI?
A city which is undoubtedly the Economical Capital of India?
A city where every Indian dreams to stay in?

Same is the city which was down because of an unexpected calamity for more than 3 days?
Water logging at almost every area of the city, no electricity in most of the areas, no water supply, phone lines not working, people literally swimming to reach home, people spending nights in their car and some of them getting killed in the car because they they could not come out of the car.

It seems to be impossible but it really happened & I am ashamed to be a citizen of Mumbai!

Worser things are happening in daily life but are just unnoticed, I would just like to brief out some points:

The road going to Airport has to be the best road without traffic and pot holes, but you'll find maximum traffic and huge numbers of pot holes on the road going to Sahar Airport. FDI in India when we are portraying such a shabby image?
Starting a business takes 3 months in India, compared to US its 18 times more?

God Bless Us! Its just we people who can change things! Wake Up!!
