never ending story
by Dragon Cares on Jul 03, 2007 05:17 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

hello guys:
Are these are new to our Great Mumbai city? Didnt we experience the same for the past so many years? Same situation has been happening so many years; same is happening now and same will continue to happen in the years to come. The situation of total submerged in the water will never change in Mumbai. At the time of every heavy rain, our great Politicians and Admistrative Officials will spell out so many "useless promises" knowing well that they cant be done. After rain, everybody forget everything and life will go on. Some politicians even telling dream words "Let's make Mumbai captial of Asia beating Shanghai,China". Dreams are free for everybody. I can bet entire my properties, Mumbai could never come even near to Shanghai not only now, not even in the next 50years. Can we eliminate the "Biggest Slum in Asia",Dharavi? No way, Never; Can we have a systematic Drainage System in Mumbai? Only in our dreams. Let Politicians and Administrative officials eat all our taxes and let them enjoy the luxurious life and let poor people suffer like anything. Bcoz, how could we expect honest/good serving politicians when we ourselve are so much corrupt and lazy. Standard/Quality of the politicians are based on the standard/quality of the people who selected/elected them. So, no use of crying at the time of crisis. Let's let to live with crisis in our entire life. Long Live India's corruption!!!!

What have you done to stop this corruption? Ever tried asking yourself this. I ask this often to myself and instead of the government believe we should hang our head in shame. We do not care enough for our country to do anything about this. When was the last time you put in an RTI request for the bad road in your neighborhood? When was the last time the societies in your neighborhood formed an ALM and filed a suit against the corporation in the court using the RTI information.
