What a shame, 7 years incomplete and substandard, but will the Minister in charge and his collaborators in the field do the right thing and resign or submit themselves to the scrutiny by independent auditors so as to clear themselves and show some degree of transparency? If this were to happen, then I think the majority of Indians will wonder whether they have slept and woken up the next morning in another country. It is a shame that India is not only not prepared but the collapse of the bridge in the facility showcases India as a laughing-stock. This is not the first instance of bridge collapsing, and what has been done to improve the situation? as we can see, Absolutely nothing. We as Indians are therefore shamed before the whole world who see India as a land touted to be the next America. A land of prosperity pursuing the welfare of its people. India should have been way ahead of China in all fields, but corruption, greed, nepotism, caste, creed, religious intolerance and many, many other social and political ills are keeping India and Indians from achieving their potential.
Let us hope that this serves as an eye opener to all especially our leaders to take the necessary steps to ensure change and address these evils head-on in order for India to prosper and uplift the standard of all its people not only the ruling few and the rich. Manuel (Eddie) Tavares
