im frustrated....

The city of Kochi will soon be overrun with small bridges. Confused? Well a drive through the lakes (more than 1 lakh on last count) formed on the beautifully cut, copy and pasted roads of the city, will warrant a need for them, before someone drowns in its apathy. Meetings, discussions, promises, contracts…the list of solutions and possibilities to this unending problem of man- made lakes on Kochi’s roads over the last 8 months is still to take wings. A suitable solution to this would be to rope in the services of PETA. Just imagine the number of insects such as ants being drowned in the tidal waves on the road, whenever a passerby or a vehicle travels through them. Entire colonies are being destroyed. Their sources of food are getting soggy. And with incessant rain and bad roads keeping the people away from shopping, there is not much for these insects within residential homes as well. PETA needs to be addressed about this serious famine and death issues so they can bring in their sniffer dogs, all chained in heavy lock and key, for evidence linking the deaths of these insects to the unfortunate rains battering the city’s well constructed roads. Of course, there could be a revolt from the mosquitoes and other superbugs, not to forget jaundice and common cold virus. They are having a ball for months now and would like to keep the party going forever. PETA being their parent organisation will have to listen to their needs as well. In this tug of war, between animal rights for ants and those thriving bugs, PETA would almost surely slip out and leave the matters in the hands of our corporation, lest they be accused of step-motherly treatment. After all, our councillors have ‘promised’ changes in the ‘coming’ days, they’ll say. Still we got a slim chance they may say yes and protest for better roads for the sake of the poor little ants if not for us humans, at the same time creating a pool of waste water elsewhere for the bugs to grow.

Another solution would be to invite the ISRO to come test their moon probes on the huge craters formed on the city’s roads. They could test for adaptability and ruggedness and even create shock absorbers for the same simulating our roads. The only problem would be whether these probes will find the city’s roads worse than the underdeveloped moon surface and claim for damages. For countering that, our hardworking councillors could be sent on a historic one- way voyage to study the terrain of Moon and decide the safety factor for ISRO’s probes. One- way cause the Malayalee in them will build a city and level the moon’s surface and of all things start a tea shop there as well. So why return to the craters of Kochi. And why return with empty promises.
