Humaarein raastein humaari zindagi

Never imagined such beautiful roads in India!

IHT has an article this weekend about dangerous road travel in Delhi. Traveling in Mumbai's trains etc. is equally crazy! (Not sure which city this video is from...but that is one lucky lady!)

That said, 62 people dead on the streets of Delhi due to Blueline buses this year is an unbelievable atrocious number. The fact that it has gone on for so long (no action even after the first 5..10...15..20...at what point does one react to it and stop the madness) proves that life has no value in India, where millions of people have no other option than to travel by these dangerous means to get to their places of livelihood and merely lead their lives.
