Another incident that happened this morning.
I had just stepped out of office and was walking towards the race course entrance, pretty close by to the Mahalaxmi station.
The roads are narrow with broad footpaths always causing a bottleneck. To further worsen this situation, there are trucks and school buses (Aroon Travels) that are parked royally in the "NO PARKING" zone. This screws the situation so bad in the peak hours, that you end up spending nowhere less than 15 minutes just to cross that 100 meters.
There is a committee called as the Mahalaxmi Bus Association (or something close to that).
I have reported multiple complaints about them to the traffic police at the signal as well as online. But as I expected, nothing worked.
So I decided to forget cribbing and sit back in my air conditioned car enjoying the music.
Today, there was tourist bus that came and had halted the traffic for around 10 minutes just because he was searching for a place to park.
He found one, but there was a cab standing at the entrance of that lane. He kept honking (really terrible) and our cabbie also seemed to be an inheritor of Rajnikanth. He put his foot down and decided not to move.
The entire area teamed up and thrashed our hero and his car. There were around 40 people who almost killed a man who wanted an equal right to disturb the law (too bad he was not a part of any committee).
This nuisance has been going on since generations and will continue this way.
First we said, United we stand, divided we fall.
Soon we will be saying - United we democratize, divided we are helpless.
JAI HIND!
