That Mumbai's roads are a mess is an understatement.
It's a no-brainer that half the mess is on account of the poliTICKS, bureauTWATS and bureaucRATS abounding and freewheeling in the city's sewers and septic tanks.
They get their pay, and payola, for doing bug-all for the city, except chewing pan and spitting tope-ka-golas on the streets, white-washed walls or vandalising whoever comes in their way.
But, worse, the country's richest city has been overrun by a local tapori-gutteri culture -- that was brought-in in 1977 -- which has now seeped-in deep into every personal pore, leaving outsiders gaping and gawking on the roads in disbelief.
On June 26th and 27th 2008, instead of being in Wellington near Ooty in Tamil Nadu, a pathetic Prez made her presence felt in Mumbai and held us for ransom on the roads for hours as some silly protocol dictates that the roads must be clear for 30 minutes when her V VIP convoy passes by.
Every appointment of mine was horrendously delayed for this doddering democratic maharani. I nearly lost my job ... but what the duck does she care!?!
Now because of the Patil-Patil kai-rey kasa-kai thingy with the D Y Patils she promises us a repeat run of the horrible traffic jams, on July 7th, not only in Mumbai but also in Navi Mumbai.

This is what you get when you allow one dim-witted housewife to call the shots and she handpicks an even dimmer-witted housewife, unfit even to be a municipal councillor, for a high constitutional office and her spineless chamchas put their thumb impressions on the docs.

gravy - it seems you are really irritated to the limit. cool down. i was also held up on the road during her last visit - but could not do much - rather than just wait like an idiot on the signal for the time as mentioned by you. can't do much - just have to bear it - no way out.
teh combination is just superb : poliTICKS, bureauTWATS and bureaucRATS. thumbs up.
note : all bombayites please make note and caution on the 7th july for the delay that rather than missing your appointments and loosing your temper for the delay.
