Speaketh the minister

I like this question and the tone it takes. The day after, there seems to be no trace of the carnage that happened in the city just a day earlier. Like any Indian, all of us will just go back to our lives as normal. The media would call this 'resilience' or 'strength of the Mumbaikar' if this was in Mumbai....that's another story

Ah..now the reason I started this post...yesterday as always, every news channel was talking to anyone who was available and not burning buses (Mr.Kumaraswamy, the Chief Minister and Mr.Ajay Kumar Singh, the police commisioner very prominently visible)

I just dont get the chief minister. I am not sure if his inexperience is catching up with him quite quickly.
Yesterday when he comments on the law & order situation, it seemed that he had really no clue what to do. Also the way he articulates, there seems to be that 'laid-backness' seen in his words. Lucky for him, there are probably still a few good men in the Police Dept.

Also,he is going around approving projects many of them with conflicting interests and overlapping timelines. There is the Metro, the airport, the elevated highway near Electronics City. We are also actually seeing the first signs of activity. Somehow, I cannot see this more than the initial adrenaline pumping

The dangers are that a population which is already harassed by growing traffic problems finds itself inconvenienced even more. Of course, if these are planned well, I am sure the populace will live it through. But the track record really does not say much about the administration.

Why dont we have really good city planners supported by at least some capable politicians?
