i am a mumbai local…....love being in this place…it can easily be called the times square of india cause you will find diiferent knid of poeple from all over in this city

I visited only the airport ;-)

I was SHOCKED to see pigs (eating from trash cans) on streets of Mumbai. I was equally appalled to see miles upon miles of shantytowns. But I was equally pleased observing the sunset from an upscale Mumbai apartment building. And the nightlife, as experienced at ‘The Paper Moon’ club, was excellent.

This city is definitely worth visiting, but might be a bit too much for the fainthearted.

Found this place quite stressful, generally dirty and the locals weren’t very friendly!

Too polluted for my liking, the place is depressing with lots of slumps everywhere you turn. The rich are living well, the poor are simply trodden…

I went to VT in South Mumbai after a very long time, a place where I used to work about 6 yrs back. We used to roam in-around Churchgate and have spent many lovely evenings listening to live bands at ‘Jazz by the bay’. While moving past VT last week I was completely fascinated by this glowing historical edifice that was built to commemorate start of first Rail Engine in Mumbai as Victoria Jubilee Day in 1887. This was built as per St Pancreas Station in London and is still the most famous landmark of Mumbai. Here is it that i captured in my camera.

this place is full of life the city never sleeps , and every one is busy with there own work but yet in moments of trouble like the recent train blasts even strangers came upto help each other , this city does not have a single religion no caste no creed , only what is called the spirit of mumbai .

OBSERVE “MUMBAI IN WHITE” ON 26 JULY 2006!

College students, and all citizens of Mumbai!

Wear white on July 26th. White for peace and a memorial to the dead.

If you wear uniform, or you don’t own anything white, wear a white band!

The seven blasts on suburban trains on July 11 shocked Mumbai and the world. Yet Mumbaikars not only kept calm, they went out of their way to help the injured and the families of the dead.

Despite Mumbai’s inherently cosmopolitanism and its peaceful character, we must actively take measures to ensure that this spirit of resilience and generosity endure. There are always communal elements that ill try to vitiate the atmosphere by attempting to target innocents.

Mumbai needs to stand together and defeat the attempts of terrorists and communal forces to grind down the city’s sense of unity. We must make certain that no more innocent lives are lost.

Colleges and citizens’ organisations of all hues and sectors have united to urge that we observe July 26, the first anniversary of the floods in which 447 Mumbaikars lost their lives, as a day on which to say “Salaam Mumbai”. We appeal to every citizen to wear white on WEDNESDAY 26 JULY 2006, to work, to go anywhere, in memory of those who lost their lives in the blasts as well and to express their commitment to peace.

On that day, students from more than 30 city colleges in Mumbai will read a Pledge of Peace in all colleges at 3.00 P.M. exactly. There will also be two public meetings at colleges held at 2.30 P.M.

1. National College, Linking Road, Bandra (West) Mumbai 400051
2. Burhani College, Nesbitt Road, Mazgaon, Mumbai 400010

We request colleges, organisations, NGOs, offices, temples, churches and mosques to please spread the word. Please come to the public meetings and read the pledge of Peace wherever you are. Please remember to wear white on that day!
