The Mumbaispora
Reading in the papers in the past few days about the Pakistanis who've come to India to see their ancestral what nots and how they're enjoying the food got me thinking. Is there a similar support for Mumbaiites ? The way things are going in Mumbai you'd soon be needing a visa to get in. Going to Mumbai after a longish break (3 months plus :() was a major shock. The traffic was insane and in general there seemed to be a lack of zest. It was a majorly short overnight visit but this is a cause for concern. This will have to be explored this weekend when I am there for 4 (FOUR/QUATTRO/NAANGU/CHAR) Whole days. Yipppeee. Oh yeah in case the bulb hasnt gone off yet the longish introduction was to flaunt this fact. But I do think that the idea of a visa for Mumbai has some merits. Will at least enable us to keep certain people out.
And on that topic does there exist a Mumbai expat group in Delhi ? The kind of people who actually miss the morning local ride or the share cab jostle at VT ? Interesting thought that.
