So Mumbai (Bombay) All set for Spot the Pot Hole contest?

Yes!

The famed POT HOLES of the not just lanes, by-lanes, but of Flyovers and High Ways! of Mumbai (BOMBAY) which have been there all along but are just brought up like bringing out of raincoats/umbrellas in the monsoons or the woolens in the winter.

Even the Press and the Media does not think it their job to see to have the problem pursued to its logical conclusion.

No wonder one year we have a Municipal Commissioner, denying the very presence of Pot-holes and in the another year we have another Municipal Commissioner offering prize money for spotting one.

So all you anniversary celebrators why don't you make a contest out of this too! so much for your reader / viewer / listener figures! after all you too thrive on flaunting your SUPPORT don't you? Unless all you people out there never set out on the Roads of Bombay at all.

Can the Mumbai Traffic Police pls ensure that all political processions for show of support / seeking votes are directed compulsorily on the most potholed roads. This way the aspiring /vote seeking politician will know what he/she should work for to avoid slip discs and in general the ire and indifference of the vote bank during the next elections.
