Is dust from Chh. Shivaji Park a real issue for residents? I’m moving to Dadar with my family and have rented a place right in front of Shivaji Park. My mom is elderly and sensitive to dust, so I’m concerned about whether the soil and dust from the park might be an issue. I’ve heard mixed opinions—some say it’s a problem, while others say it’s not a big deal. Anyone living in the area who can share their experience? P.S. My dad has a thing for Dadar, so we have to live here only! :) 4 3 replies

Is the Indian middle class apathetic towards the issues of the poor? I have been noticing since some time that the Indian middle class barely shows any outrage for the issues of the poor. Most of the cases which grew into social media movements had victims belonging to the middle class. I recently learnt that more than 50,000 people in India lose their life due to snakebite, but nobody talks about it maybe cuz the victims are primarily poor rural people. We scorn at them for being uncivic, but don't empathise with the underlying reasons . 5 23 replies
Some fellows here supported the ban on gutka in Jharkhand, suggesting Gujarat and particularly Surat should follow suit. However, they seemed unaware that Gujarat Govt under CM Modi had already prohibited the sale and distribution of gutka and pan masala since 2012. The sale, storage and distribution of gutka and tobacco or nicotine-laced paan masala are banned in the state. The ban came into effect in 2012 under the Food Safety and Standards Act and rules and regulations formulated in 2011. Despite this prohibition, a thriving black market for these products continues to operate. 2 5 replies

Why do Indian parents have the same high expectations but not provide the same quality of life? How do they have high expectations for their kids but don’t provide the same quality of life?
