I am sorry to say this but Mumbai is now unliveable.

It has 3x the population it can support
It's locals have 4x the passengers they are designed for.
It has 2x the number of vehicles that it can support 
It has XX% of the buses it needs.
Half the roads are under construction or dug up at any given point in time 
The Metro is taking 3x the time it should have taken.
Arterial bridges are built at glacial pace choking the flow of people
Honest people can't buy a house 
Rents are 2x what most can afford

The satellite townships haven't developed. 

New York has a Jersey City and a Newark. London has a Reading and A Watford. 

Mumbai has Vasai Virar and Kalyan 

They are unplanned, dirty, have no easy access and no public transport.

So there's nothing that can take Mumbai's load.

If Mumbai was an elevator, if would be beeping so louder than an Air Raid siren.

Basically nothing in the city works anymore.

Yet people flock to it because there is no other option 

No other city has the opportunities it has. 

No other city offers the livelihoods it does.

But for how long, is the question


XXXXXXX engagements
