Note: the topic is not related to the show, hence the mods are free to close it if the feel appropriate..!!

We all know what Tragedy has occurred in Uttarakhand.. the images tell everything..!!😭





Here we have a State, a town... once bustling with activity and the ambiance of devotion everywhere...!! But now all that is left is mere ruins of once active area...😲😲😲
All tht is now found is just debries and shrieks of countless stranded people either calling for help or praying for their own deaths..!!😭😭😭

All we can do here is to pray... and think at the same time that do we humans really deserve such calamities..??? Becoz, Human... the most capable of all the 84lakh species.. all endowed with knowledge and wisdom to decide between what is right and wrong..!!

But I feel, that all this wisdom that has been directed towards the fulfillment of Only our desires has rendered the Human race as the most incompetent of God's creations...!!
We are selfish, greedy...

I am reminded of an episode in DKDM regarding Ganga... Mahadev was indeed right.. We never deserved a gift like Ganga when we cannot Take care of it...!!

I know that I am being very extreme... we all think in the same lines wen a tragedy of this magnitude occurs...!! We think for one day, at the max 3 days.. then we all are back to square one... But now we should ponder, understand and realise..!!

Lets pray for all the departed souls and for those who still can be saved from the deluge.. and for us.. I can only say...

Yeh Samay Hai Mann Manthan Ka...!!!

My prayers are for those who've lost their lives. May their Soul RIP.
May those stranded people reunite with their near & dear ones soon.
May they get strength to fight this calamity. May the rehabilitation work start soon after clearing out the damages.
May they get lots of courage to come out of this situation.
Let's understand one thing humans are helpless in handling such calamities when it strikes. But we can help those in whatever possible way & I believer those who can have reached there, am talking about other individuals, organisations & specially our Indian Army. They are great.
Abusing Nature, has resulted in climate changes. Lets respect & love our Mother Nature. Try our level best in preserving her.
I know this is not the place to mention this but am writing it here. In past during Monsoon there have been cases of very heavy rain. There should have been a disaster management plan to handle such situations.

there is a National Disaster Management Authority ( NDMA) that takes care of these situations.. and before the advent of monsoons, they start training people to take precautions and be prepared for any casualty.. But yes a disaster of such magnitude was indeed unprecedented as the monsoons arrived before time this year..!!

But I was shocked to hear certain news channels telling tht NDMA did not have a proper info mechanism to deal with the situation... such a major Lacuna

Even I've read abour NDMA in news. A good DMP is always reday to handle situation, irrespective of time. But yes such excuses like rain arrived before time is given in Mumbai too. For it's 1st Railway escalater breaking down within a month of it's inaguration, due to lack of Shade, not put by the railway authorities.

This shows how much ever Humans try, Nature is always Superior, unpredictable.
