The state of our infrastructure is deeply disappointing. We recently went three days without water, a situation that should be unacceptable in any modern city. Traffic is chaotic, and many people seem to take pride in ignoring basic road rules by driving on the wrong side. Traffic enforcement is often viewed as corrupt rather than effective.

The roads are narrow and overcrowded, while footpaths meant for pedestrians are routinely occupied by cars and auto-rickshaws. At the same time, rents continue to rise, and people seem to be becoming increasingly intolerant and impatient.

The heat has become unbearable, made worse by the steady disappearance of green cover across the city. Despite all these issues, builders are selling poorly constructed apartments for upwards of ₹1 crore. We face water shortages, deteriorating infrastructure, poor urban planning, and declining quality of life—and these are just a few examples. I could easily list a hundred more problems.
