Hyderabad
Hyderabad - Istanbul of India. Jami Masjid, Toli Masjid, the Char Minar. Hustle and bustle of market life. Golconda Fortress, tombs of the Quatab Shahi Kings. Central Library, Osmania University, Public Gardens, Osman Sagar. Colourful bazaars, traditional Muslim gear and Mughlai delicacies. Hub of IT & Telecommunications, MNCs, superspeciality hospitals, medical tourism. Pleasant climate, magnificent cuisine, Hyderabadi Biryani, splendid shopping areas. But how is this fascinating amalgam of cultures coping with the traffic and road problems?

Indias bi-weekly 9/11.

In the US 9/11 took place a few years ago. Countries have gone to war, leaders have been toppled and billions is being spent on anti-terror measures.

Did you know that about 250 people a day are killed on Indian roads??We have a 9/11 tally every two weeks.

Do you think the country should be on a war footing from within to save the loss of innocent lives? Is it not time everyone is aware and gets involved to bringing justice to the innocent people who lose their lives daily.

We have street terror daily and that is not even recognised by the drivers.

What measures do you suggest to stop this killing and maiming?

If you drive safe and slow not in reckless manner then there is little chance of accident. Don't tailgate, Drive in lane.

9/11 attack on twin towers in America

I am sorry I should have been more specific. 9/11 is Sept the 11th 2001 where the twin towers in USA were attacked by terrorists and the loss of lives was about 3000. Since then leaders have been toppled, and millions are being spent on anti terror projects.
In India we have the same loss of lives every two weeks and nothing is happening to stop it. Sorry , I should have been a little more descriptive.
