Politicians are magicians!

It seems some political parties are promising 24-hours water supply to Mumbai. How on earth this is going to be possible is anybody's guess. Even on getting "abundant" rainfall year after year and with the lakes (that supply water to Mumbai) overflowing during the rainy season, no one raises a question as to how there is a water shortage by December. If so, without building additional lakes or catchment areas, it beats me to how there could be 24-hours water supply. Of course, we should also not forget how Mumbai can accomodate more "migrants" while still meeting all these constraints.

Oh! maybe they meant 24-hours water supply to the non-tax-paying, free-housed, underprivileged and the "minority". That's what maybe someone meant by saying the minority has the first claim to the resources of this country. Leeches, get off my back. Enough of plundering Mumbai.
