Everyone keeps complaining to the AMC about filthy and dirty Ahmedabad, but they are the most responsible for all the wastage around at the end. This guy stopped on the bridge and emptied a full bag of wastage in to the river without any hesitation.

Sculpture of horse in front of private building

Only sculptures can bear this summer, its scorching hit this season. It’s been declared to be record breaking hit. Everyone is now waiting to get mercury down or poured by the rain! Even the nights are so hit to bear.

This summer cases of hit-stroke and death caused by temperature is also very high. Even animals and birds are not able to survive in this hit. People have already started praying to the almighty to show little mercy!

Thanks,
Vipul

Shiv theater – Renovated

Shiv theater is now renovated, probably its been bought by some cinema chain company and now it’s going to be open to the public.

Some years ago when Ahmedabad has no multiplexes Shiv was the most popular theater, even when there were few multiplexes this theater has managed to survive. But public needs a change! So now its renovated and will be open for the public very soon!

Thanks,
Vipul

Traffic in the evening

Traffic in the evening near Subhash Bridge, the hoarding in the background says many things. Hon. Narendra Modi has definitely made many changes that common man be thankful of, but not to forget of many issues that public is still facing. Still there are cattle on the roads, every road is still not constructed well and many of them has manholes open or not closed properly. BRTS would definitely have solved many problems but other roads and security of public while they are on road is not yet considered!

Thanks,
Vipul
