THE RAINS CANNOT DETER MUMBAI SPIRIT!!!!!!
by Harish N. on Jul 05, 2006 09:34 AM   Permalink

Hi there....

Well I have left for my office.. and reached too. But frankly speaking, I donot know whether I will reach home safely. Today Morning, it was very much visible that people didnt dare to get out of their homes seeing the traffic on roads. There was hardly any autorickshaws visible as they didnt dare challenge the angry torrential rains. But, still there are many who are enjoying the rains and it was visible at Powai Lake where many people were sort of camping to enjoy the view of the flooded lake. Also, in Aarey Colony, there were areas where waters of Mithi River were flooding the road but people were enjoying the water there too. Its good that the state has declared holiday for school and colleges today. It would be nice if offices too follow suit.... Finally, all readers just enjoy the Mumbai Monsoons. Its sort of become habitual now and dont complain about any authorities doing their job. Mumbai needs water seeing its vast increasing population and we are lucky that thanks to these inevitable rains we donot face any water supply cuts in contrast to out counterpart metros. So, Have a safe and great monsoon. Sit at home and Enjoy the Fifa World Cup semis and finale.
