Pathetic promises and harsh realities

Every year the BMC in Mumbai promises that they have made adequate plans for the rains and will be prepared for any eventuality. The fact is however very contrary to the claims. They are totally ill prepared and never forthcoming to admit it. Whatever they prepare, they do it keeping in mind the past trends and not the future requirements. For instance, i live in a locality called Garodianagar in Ghatkopar in Mumbai where the water levels are the same since the last 15 years. That speaks volumes for the preparation of the BMC.I guess the common man like me should come out and do what the BMC cannot. We should come out and get the BMC to do its job and if it cannot we should do it ourselves because ultimately we are the ones who suffer. How long should we take it now?

Blogging for the first time.....

I have been reading blogs for a long time now almost 2 years or more and but never have thought of writing one until a few days back when one of my closest friends suggested me to do so. I begun to wonder what would i write since i have been reading on a wide variety of topics and hadn't really given a thought about my inner most ideas/thoughts on any particular matter. I decided it was time to put down what i think ....because i do think a lot ...thats what people close to me say..
