Why must monsoon play a havoc with Mumbaikar's life every year??

Who is responsible for this madness every year. Yes, of course, BMC is the first name that comes to the mind. But isnt there more to it?
  • Shouldnt the ordinary citizen be blamed for blatantly littering, which in turn blocks the sewages and hence the flow of water?
  • Shouldnt our teachers be blamed for not teaching the students that littering is not just illegal but in absolute defiance of civic sense?
  • Shouldnt the contractors be blamed for poor upkeep and maintenance of the roads, leading to slowing traffic?
  • Shouldnt our drivers be blamed for ignoring not just traffic rules, but even inasmuch as civic sense and common courtesies to fellow travellers by parking indifferently, by not stopping before the zebra lines - clearly hindering the flow of traffic, without any benefit to anyone?
  • Shouldnt the traffic police be blamed for allowing such nuisance on the road?
  • Shouldnt the builders be blamed for gobbling up our free spaces and blocking the nallahs that take the water out of the city?
  • Shouldnt the buyers be blamed for buying such flats from such builders?
  • Shouldnt the slum dwellers be blamed for the same reason - blocking the water outflow?
  • Shouldnt the political parties be blamed for shielding and encouraging these slums for political reasons?

The list can go on. But, there has to be a stop somewhere. and, before that stop, there has to be a start somewhere. Lets us pledge to be that start. Let "I" be the change i wanna see in "YOU". If each one of us can do that, this city, nay country, would be a much better place to live!
