Yes Mumbai WILL Bounce Back

Aamchi Mumbai has the inner strength and capability of weathering all storms ever dished out to it.

I have left Mumbai back about 2 years now, but still live Mumbai in my heart now and will be forever. Once a Mumbaite Always a Mumbaite.

At this moment of crisis of once in a 100 years, its no use blaming the system. What were the blamers doing before this calamity struck? Did they realise or envisage that such a thing could happen? If they did what steps did they take to create an awareness?

Its easy to blame the system after an event and say that this could have been done and that should be done. Not that I am protecting the system, but at this critical hour, there is need for compassion for all those stranded away from home and their near and dear ones. Imagine the plight of the working mother who cannot reach home to her small child in this hour when the child needs the mother most.

Let all Mumbaikars rise up ONCE MORE to this occasion and prove to the world that we are the ONLY ONES who can deal with such a situation. I can bet NO othEr city in the world is capable of withstanding such an onlsaught of natures fury and get back up and running as Mumbai will
