Why Mumbai can never be Shanghai...

Just a few mm of rains compared to 26/7 and mumbai was in a mess, infact mumbai looks like a bombed city with all the excavated garbage, potholes, open electrical wires etc. Am i in beirut? No wait, even beirut is better now.

Forget Shanghai, even bangkok with it's slums is better than mumbai.
And the credit for that goes to the civic sense of it's people and the city management system.

Check out Powai road towards Seepz once the flyover ends, its a disaster waiting to happen.

A child was electrocuted, accidents happened, waterlogging at homes, APMC and elsewhere. Illegal Autos with tampered meters rule the city, creating chaos while the city's transport authority sleeps...any exact count of the autos running in the city.??

Please Mr.Politician/Bureaucrat, if you do not know or understand what is city management or crisis management is all about, employ specialists and let them do the work. But for god's sake, stop the city from being raped.

i believe that not only government but also people are responsible for knowing the importance of rules and regulations in life, Knowing the need to keep the things clean.

you are absolutely right....the govt is not entirely responsible....the people themselves break rules and then blindly blame the govt for it .....the mentality of people has to change....only then we can progress...
