Rhythm of the Rain!!
The rain gods were rather too merciful yesterday. It rained from around 2 pm and continued till about 7 pm and Delhi turned into a huge lake of sewer waters. People stranded, waiting, trying to negotiate through the murky water, buses and autos and cars and bikes stalled in the middle of the road, leading to enormous jams and more. The auto rickshaw I flagged, stalled four times but I sat on and the driver did not give up. I managed to get off close to my place but had to cross a very busy road where no vehicle wanted to give way (God knows where they were headed coz there was a huge jam right ahead anyway. Make you wonder how the authorities take on huge projects like the Commonwealth Games??!! One bout of rain and the Games will be washed away. Think Ms Dixit! You need to plan better for the sake of India's name. Water collected on flyovers and under construction metro stations have given away and sunk further down. God help Delhi and its populace.
