Mr Prashant, I think u have not seen the real Mumbai 1. Just be a keen observer and check that how many outsiders are consuming tobacco in local trains and spitting it from the window on the platform. 2. Check that after mashing the tobacco along with "Chuna" how many of them throw it inside the compartment. 3.Regarding breaking traffic signals, these poor people dont own any vehicle (maybe cycle sometimes) so there is no question of breaking signals. 4. Travel in any ST bus and you will find that all people spit inside the bus along with the conductor which is a rare sight to see. 5. U can have illegal connections only if you give bribes to the persons who are working in these divisions. They are also equally responsible for it.
I have lots more but I just dont want to make u feel embarrased about it. May be the Govt of UP/Bihar should learn a lesson and try to increase job opportunities in their state to help these poor people so that they can earn their living. My head dropped in shame when I learnt that a pregnant lady was also made to flee from Nasik and she delivered a baby in a toilet of an Express Train. I hope this is not the culture we are looking out for in a democratic country like ours.
