14 Dead in Billboard Disaster: Will "Spirit of Mumbai" Excuse Work Now? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Rains brought a dust storm to Mumbai on Monday. The storm knocked down a giant billboard in Ghatkopar, killing at least 14 people and injuring 74. After the disaster unfolded, Mumbai's municipal corporation said that the billboard was illegal. The corporation has belatedly promised to remove other illegal billboards in the city. Meanwhile, Monday's rains led to train delays and a stampede in Thane. It's the same story every year, where the people of Mumbai are subjected to horrible conditions and their tolerance in lauded as the "Spirit of Mumbai". Has the "Spirit of Mumbai" become an excuse for officials to not do their jobs?

Too much pollution, overcrowding, lack of open spaces, lack of greenery, frustrated and angry people who don't have even an iota of patience, most of the people just don't have even basic traffic sense/civic sense or in general you can say common sense 😂😂. Mountains of filth, e rickshaws and motor rickshaws ruling the streets without following traffic rules properly. Etc etc etc. The list is very long. Too many people are migrating to Delhi,particularly from bihar and eastern UP and burdening further the already burdened infrastructure. Indian govt must have to build other cities or provide employment to people by investing and opening factories in tier 2 and 3 cities which are already in existence.

Spirit of Mumbai is promoted by celebs and businessmen who have homes in posh locations but need migrant workers to come and work so that the demand of their properties always remain high !

Mumbai BMC budget is the largest in entire Asia. So why is water logging and other problems still continuing?

Sorry to hear about casualties and hope the city does better as monsoons are supposed to be getting more extreme with the largest iceberg cut loose in the Antartic resulting in rising ocean levels and will result in increased precipitation. Brazil, China seeing the effects also

This is so tragic and senseless. They have been times here in America when I’ve seen these giant billboards and I wonder… Has anyone considered the weather and the wind?

The spirit of mumbai is 14 people dead in that incident and other casualties occur. After 4 days we witnessed a huge massive political rally by our PM . This is a real spirit where the life of the common man has no value.

Once after one of the Bomb Blasts of Mumbai I'd written a small article and shared amongst friends, which was called, "The Poultry Farm - Mumbai" what was and is called resilience is actually a treadmill which all Mumbaikars are on. We unconsciously are on the grind and ignore tragedies and go on. Just like when a few chickens are taken to slaughter from the Poultry Farm, others are going about their business. And yes it's a Tag line used by the Govt

Need to correct the fact that the delay in the train was not due to the storm, but it was due to some other issue way before the storm and rain arrived in Mumbai i.e. from morning 10:00 am

Looks like there's a great reckoning that's going on among corrupt officials now that India is getting richer and requires more reliable urban planning.
