Our cities are turning into slums. Stagnant water ,garbage dumps are regular part of nearly every street in HAVE NOT colonies. I am unfortunately UPA govt can only talk of growth rates ,not of quality of life . I am staying on Gurgaon on the highway . The area is full of trash ,and rubbish ,not collected for days. Can I blame the health depatment . Can Shiela Dixit sack the health secretary for the dereliction of duty. It is more important for her to keep the party happy. Same thing for Health Minister. Can he take the erring health ministers all over India to task . The incidence of epidemic will continue to rise . We will only be happy at the sensex.
