the BMC has decided that if rainfall is not satisfactory in the next few days, it will supply drinking water only on alternate days in the city and it has already imposed a 20 per cent water cut for the last 10 days.
we mumbaians are too much fortunate compaired to other area of maharashtra, in many districts ppl get water on alternate days since years, in many places ppl get drinking or any kind of water supply once a week.
it's only in mumbai and thane in the whole state that we daily get water supply and that too very generously, just to provide more water to mumbai, the capital of the state, many neighbouring districts have been suffering of low water supply since long.
in marathwada, vidarbh area, they get only half hour water supply daily and that too in cities only, villages and town have been far behind for gaining this facility, they have to walk miles to get a pale of water. many ppl have to drink water from mud pits.
there are several other problems regarding water about which we read in news papers, watch on television, see around us. I have myself been to such places and stayed there for some time, where ppl get drinking water once in 10 days.
what do you all reading this learn from it? do you support water conservation policy being preached since decades by government and NGOs? do you yourself use water just and properly?
just think to yourself once, if you get the good answer, be proud of yourself. :)

An Experience
It happened last evening, i felt a bit dizzy while shopping and fainted in the shop, the shopkeeper, a boy standing away chatting on cell, both rushed to me, help me sit and gave some water....and the two women standing just next to me backed 2-3 feet, were not even ready to touch me....
I sat there for a while and then rushed home. All the evening and later on I was thinking about it. Well, this is not my first experience, each time women just back off while helping even for any small help I needed, why women are like that ?
I don't mean that all are like that, but still the incidents I faced even long back, showed me the same picture, in such incidents women never helped me. If women are considered as very sensitive creatures, more sensible than men, having kind heart and all those good words.....how come such incidents keep happening? Who is more generous then? Men or women? Or do they just have their own choices? When am I going to meet any such woman?
