Mumbai's heroes..

THIS IS MUMBAI. If it was any other city with such deluge, the results would have been more devastating, as every citizen would have depended on somebody else to take care of those suffering. But Mumbaities are a breed apart. Even the slum dwellers who were drenched in rains came on the streets to help people in cars to get out of the waters. Why should have they bothered about people in cars when their own slums are getting washed-off? Mumbai is a city of have's & have not's - so everybody belives that every other person is a HUMAN BEING.
Its unfortunate that Politicians take undue advantage of such a good citizens & make their own money. Where were the shiv sainiks, thakere's, deshmuk's, rane's? For every other issue they take political advantage - but when its a matter of common man's problems - the powers that be - JUST WANT TO STAY PUT IN THEIR OWN LUXURY.
