"250 roads have gone under water in the capital."

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about rain in Delhi?
Water logging comes to my mind instantly and I am sure that most of the Delhiites would agree with me on this. The whole fun of the monsoon season is lost. The waterlogged roads and surroundings put an end to all the excitement and fervour.
Due to the inefficiency of the civic agencies the people have to suffer. The traffic jams and vehicular breakdown caused due to water logging make commuting a strenuous and unpleasant job.

The agencies involved in the civic work are busy blaming each other for all the mismanagement and chaos, instead of taking effective measures to resolve and control the problem.
This does not stop here, the waterlogged places are becoming the breeding ground for mosquitoes. And till now 453 confirmed dengue cases have been reported in the Capital, where 34 cases were reported on Monday.

The civic agencies need to act immediately and promptly to avoid further disastrous consequences and problems for the people.
And to aggravate their problems I would like to remind them that Commonwealth Games are 40 days away ; )
