Leave if you don’t like

I’m born & raised in Mumbai. I have been meeting people from different sectors who are working in Mumbai. They come from different parts of India. All I hear from them is Mumbai is bad in terms of traffic, roads, expensive accommodation etc. If these people don’t like the city then they should simply leave and go back to their home town. Their govt is incapable of developing their states infra and creating jobs that’s why these people come here. Why don’t they stay in their state and make a difference. What is the point of constantly bashing the city ? These people are spineless, they don’t even care or want to improve Mumbai. They just want to make money & enjoy the cosmopolitan lifestyle here.

Mumbai, like other port cities had unfair advantage for centuries. No wonder that’s where jobs are. If I pay taxes, I have the right to crib. But hey, you stay at home, save half of your salary because you don’t need to pay rent. And then post anonymously asking people to leave.

I’m sure you’ve not read about Samyukta Maharashtra Movement. If Mumbai would’ve been in Gujarat today then obviously people wouldn’t have come here for the comso lifestyle When Brit’s ruled all princely cities had the same advantage. It’s fault of state govts which have failed to develop the cities, thus people are coming to Mumbai and then cribbing. These people have zero empathy & regards towards this city & neither do they have any viable solutions. The weather is the best in the world. Transport is superb & cheap. Only problem bad roads & overpopulation. If wannabes leave then population wouldn’t be an issue.

Mumbaikars display the worst xenophobia and hate towards others. Early in my career made my choice never to go to Mumbai for work

Thank you! Stay where you are and help that city develop. Hope it comes with better luxuries and lifestyle like Mumbai. If it doesn’t, you’ll eventually comeback

No city in the world is perfect to settle in right now. From NCR, BLR to SF, London everyone complains about their cities.

Agreed no city is perfect but Mumbai certainly doesn't have the basic infrastructure in line real estate rates. Being a proud Mumbaikar is fine but turning deaf ear to problems is no solution. Had people started complaining earlier, Mumbai would have got metro way back.

We have protested and there have been significant movements. Read about people like Atre, Pani Wali Bai, etc. locals always voice their concerns to area corporator. The issue is Mumbai is not a planned city thus slums and unscaled urbanization is destroying the city.

Indians compalin about Govt and Urban Infra in all the cities. Because almost all Indian cities suck when it comes to urban infrastructure. Nothing to be taken personally, just move on. Even I complain about metro delays and potholes, but love the city.

Water Lays Off Bengaluru

TL;DR Silicon Valley is dry and dying in February. Almost 2cr people live in Bengaluru and outskirts, dependent on kaveri, borewell and tanker water. Kaveri water - Stalin and Sidda are busy in cage fight and at end they will abuse NaMo for this also. Lakes are exploited by corrupt politicians alongwith bbmp, bda and corrupt beaureaucrats. Borewell ain't working as climate change ruined water level due to shift in monsoon rain pattern. Tanker mafia again ready to loot. North India is lucky to have 3 all year river like ganges, indus and brahmaputra. Due to Himalayas glaciers they are all weather rivers Sadly south India has 3 major river like godavari, narmada and kaveri but all are monsoon river. Water was already having 1000 tds and now that water is also unavailable. I will never buy those shitty 1cr houses at Bangalore or even land due to this water crisis. What do u think Bengaluru lovers or haters?

Bengaluru: Bengaluru, often hailed as "India's Silicon Valley," is grappling with a severe water shortage this year, much earlier than usual...

Mumbai has a weird smell!

Is it just me or do you all also think that Mumbai smells funny? It’s as if everyone here is cooking smelly food all the time. If not food, it might be something else but there’s always a smell when I visit.

Bangalore is the Best city in India

Alright, Bangalore is the best city in India. It's not just the best, it's in a league of its own compared to other cities. First off, let's talk about the weather. Bangalore's weather is perfect all year round, magical. Unlike heat waves of Delhi and the shit humidity of Mumbai, Bangalore's climate is the best. Who wants to sweat anytime you step out or freeze to death in winters? Not me. Bangalore is where the real innovation happens. Really smart people making this country better. These Delhi Bombay kids caught lacking for real. And the people? Bangalore's got the best of the country. It's cosmopolitan. You've got people from all over the country, and everyone's more educated and progressive. So, let's cut to the chase. Bangalore is the best city, hands down. The rest of India can keep dreaming, but they'll never catch up.

I am tired

Tired of every fucking thing in this city. Born and brought up in this city. Life was good. However its not the same now. Fucking overpopulation, overcrowding, over expensive rent, food, where are we heading. Public transport is good, lol, try traveling for your 9-5 job. Roads are broken. Traffic is terrible. Monsoon about to worsen things more. A pm wants to conduct a rally in this city, and my 1.5 hours of travel turns out to be of 4.5 fucking hours. Have just watched 2people fall off the local train. Someone has to step in and please do something. Please stop the population from increasing. Please do something.

Is Mumbai liveable in future & worth buying a house more than 2cr ? Where else can one go apart from Bengaluru ?

Disconnected from nature. Getting polluted and congested day by day - what other option Mumbaikar have?
