North Indians are responsible.Not the corrupt politicians and council people. Not the goonda raaj and petty self serving bureaucrats - it is the Indians from North India. This happens in Mumbai nearly every year - where is the foresight, planning, infrastructure to deal with this situation. The whole machinery breaks down.

Do u know of any other city which gets the kind of rain that Mumbai does and still manages to survive the torrential rains? I don't know of any..... I have seen what rains do to cities in North America. They do not get such heavy rains normally, but if by chance some year it does happen to rain and there's flooding, then even these "super-powers" are unable to cope up and people choose to stay at home and not venture out. There is water-logging and flooding and traffic jams and similar problems even in US. But we Indians always like to blame our country and everyone else but thier own selves...

Dear Vaishali, Time to move on and be a developed nation - move on from just "surviving"to actually have an acceptable standard of living. Are you trying to say that our standards in public life in terms of transparency and accountability are on par with the US - I think not my friend.

You are obviously a person with a high IQ and certainly can hold a good debate - problem for the country is people with the surname Bhatnagar. Well said. Hope you increase your dose in whatever medical facility for mentally retarded you are.
