Those three days of my life gave me answers of many questions i used to ask myself.
Why India still called by outsiders as poor?....Why these 'Bhaiyyas' come to mumbai to make it worse to worst?......
Well those three days i traversed UP and that too in that part of the most populated state of India which is supposed to better than other parts of UP gave me glimpses of shocking rality of India outside Mumbai!!
From one town to other.. no roads, no sanitation, no well constructed structures (sorry i can't call them buildings!), and poverty everywhere! The only building i saw in great shape was of the rulling party. And offcourse the hordings praising the MLA or MP were seen everywhere even in front of the 'Dancing Sadak' as rightly called by our driver.
I think the elected representatives are concerned with glorifying thier own image rather than providing most basic facilities to their people.
One thing i noticed in that trip is the better condition of Uttaranchal State which was carved ou of UP 4 years ago. This suggests that smaller states can improve thigs which is going to benifit India in larger way! Statistics shows UP by itself has the 7th largest population in the world!! So how can a chief minsiter govern such a huge population with efficiency? Answer is split the state!

Its really sad to know that, but do u not understand that the city of MUMBAI we stay in, in itself lacks basic infrastruture!
MUMBAI pays 58,000 crores of income tax to the government of INDIA, while DELHI, BANGLORE, CHENNAI AND KOLKATA together pay just 52,000 crores.
Mind u this money we pay from our pay checks is to get good infrastructure! And yes obviously the uneducated outsiders u r talking about are not paying their sare of tax.
So I think, MUMBAI should not be overloaded with non taxpaying uneducated people untill MUMBAI gets the basic infrastructure done with!
