The romance attached to the rainy season by our Indian films remains a dream sequence on the silver screen as far as the Indian citizen is concerned, no matter to which strata of the society he may belong to. Of late, the erratic and unpredictable rainy season has been consistently playing havoc, disturbing the normal course of living and also destroying life and property.
The concerned authorities across the country have acknowledged the infinite inconveniences caused by the rains to the common man and have promised to look into the matter. Yet one can see that not much has been done, though another torrential monsoon is lurking around the corner.
Facing The Practical Realities
