Bombay Flooded again - What a shame

Bombay Rains

It happens every year and it's becoming worser as well. Where is all the money going? India's financial capital is drowing in rains again in 2006. What a shame.!

Here is a link on
Mumbaikar's Ideas.

My humble opinion - We need a revolution in India.

Narayanan Sir-

Its a shame that this is happening to Mumbai pretty much every year. With the kind of wealth and prosperity that Mumbaites enjoy, this is a yearly hazard that they face.

If the Authorities failed to wake up this time....Don't be too surprised if you can't see Mumbai on the map anymore ya'all !

But again....The Worlds spinnin on its tribulation phase...Mother natures only gonna tighten the noose each time....Believe IT !

Every major city in India is just like this. Mumbai, Bangalore, Cochin etc. I wonder what is role of town planners in this country!

what kind of revolution?

- armed or unarmed?

jus curious why I don't see a reference in your blog about the slum demolitions in Mumbai which affected more people than the tsunami...

is it because the rains affected the middle class and the slums affected the poor who we are ashamed about
