In the US portland cement sells for pennies. Not so in India. That is reflected in what goesinto a batch of concrete at building sites. The roof of a house collapsed in Goa. It had been built only ten years earlier and a study uncovered shoddy material in construction. The structure in Bombay was concrete, the design typical of recent decades of the city. The builder sang all the way to the bank. The consequences of the crime buried, in more than one sense of the word. RIP, Misquittas.
