Whatever happens in the current Maharashtra government maha crisis, whether the rickshaw govt, as it is called by some, trundles on through political potholes or not, citizens are looking at the goings-on with disgust, disdain and some amusement. One citizen claimed this is free entertainment, while another said kidnappings, hostages, flights out of the city, rebels with or without a cause, this is a thriller movie for people without having to pay for a ticket.

Neil Pereira of the Palli Gaothan East Indian Residents Association in Bandra though slammed, “These politicians by ‘n’ large have worked to create wealth for themselves and their families, not to serve the common man. This is not the democracy which our freedom fighters laid down their lives for. The present is a very, very sad story of Mobai city being ruined by all parties who cannot control their greed for money.”
