Advani back for some reason

Advani is back in the news today for some reason. He was screaming something and making a point, but I didn’t care enough to find out exactly what this was. The situation has definitely improved here in Mumbai, the roads have cleared, the trains have began to function. Sixty people have died in Thane alone, and the causality was 431 the last I heard of it. Bombay high is down now… forever, so that’s a loss of 80000 barrels of oil everyday. The stock markets were closed today, so was the RBI, which has never happened before. But since the situation has greatly improved, college is bound to be open tomorrow. There is a 10 marks assignment tomorrow, for which we were supposed to receive the topic today. However Sion was one of the worst hit areas. Especially the part between cine max and gurukripa is bound to be flooded. So SIES may not be open even tomorrow… but I donno. Trains are functioning between CST to Dadar, and between Thane and Ghatkoper. They will be slow for sure between Ghatkoper and Sion, Kurla being the worst hit area. Trains inch forward there even when there were lesser rains last year… so traveling is going to be hell tomorrow, but I will have to do it for the sake of those marks. And I will have to do it early in the morning to boot. Damn.
