Instead of reassuring or giving confidence, the CM advices people not to step out of homes unless its necessary. Isnt that hilarious? Instead of waiting for disasters to strike and then giving 1lakh compensation, why doesnt the Govt for once build proper drains. And its not that this is the first time rains have created a havoc. Its been happening almost every year in Hyd. Once the rains are gone, the govt lulls the situation and gets away with it. As someone mentioned, what about us, the sincere tax payers? Why should we suffer?

It does not make any sense to blame the government now after occupying natural drains for new colonies by bribing the politicians and officials. Be a tax payer or not nature's fury will not spare any one.

I realize nature's fury and stuff. But this isnt the first instance that ppl r dying of water mishaps in rainy season. I think you should take a walk..i mean around Hyd and see the affected areas,u'll realize its not just nature's fury. Even after the crisis passes, nothing wud be done by the authorities until next monsoon when Im sure history is going to repeat. I think our PM must take some time off from his busy schedule (he attended Infosys' bhoomi pooja today) and take action instead of giving sweet words of advice.
