Rain Drain Aftermath

Till the time it was raining and water was logged things were simpler, even though one has to make his way through knee deep water. Proposition was simpler because a lot of mud got accumulated during the heavy rain, the housing societies nearby were also equally responsible for trafficking the mud to the new catchments area which is unfortunately my society ….lol. The mud beneath one’s feet gave an experience of cake walk, really very smooth, fine and soft to walk. J

But as the chocked water founded exit, things got changed… lot of mud which is surely black in color and stinking like anything got showcased…. Hummmm….. This was the carpet which uses to give a pleasant experience while walking. Oh no….

I miss the rain and pray to god, to bless us with more rain, rain with strategic angle and quantity so that at least the mud gets washed away.

When it was raining heavily many entrepreneurs mushroomed in the vicinity of my society making huge money by taking the advantage of the situation. People having no other alternative paid to those entrepreneurs. These entrepreneurs sensed that people are having problem/ hesitation in wading through the storm water so they started helping the residents on a chargeable basis, Some were charging 100 rupees for toeing the vehicles which were stuck-up in the water, while other charged 10 rupees for ferrying from point A to point B.

Well some are making money while others are facing the fury of mosquitoes, foul smell, disturbed routine and what not. In the mean; metrological statistics indicates that it will rain today.

Let see will it be a strategically balanced rain which can wash out the mud and bad smell or it will it again create water logging again.
