More flyovers/bridges collapse

After listening to the collapse of the flyover in Hyderabad, a cause of poor engineering and planning, there is another one to go hand in hand, perhaps the causes were oceans apart.

Critics and other corporals conveniently blamed the construction companies for poor planning and engineering failures, but if asked for an opinion, the construction was going well planned with as less traffic congestions as could be controlled. The planning was efficient, and it was backed by big names! Perhaps, there could be insider news with the Quality of materials.

An appreciated piece of construction would be that of the Big Dig! Some news channel once aired a documentary which showed glimpses of the ordeals, planning, construction and much more during the Big Dig contruction times!

Media Transformation - Blog-woe-sphere


With the not-so-pleasant experiences with shopkeepers for they dont treat you with the expected consideration, with economists for leveraging exorbitant taxes on what you meagerly earn, with bus services for the presumptuous attitude for not providing you seats they promised, with unworthy traffic policemen for catching you and making a quick buck out of no mistake of yours along with surmounted harassment... The list of woes is a never-ending one.
Each time this happens, I've always wanted to go back home and write to the media, and make aware people, but countered it with the easy going nature of indian editors who manage the editorials column for biased political issues!

Sharath, apparently has kicked out the misconception by being acknowledged by Shashi Tharoor! I'm inspired to put in all my woes and issues out here, and punch in a few well-known names for them to get recognized!
