1 step to make this world a better place and free it from religious hatred

God did not create religion. Religion is certainly not a way to reach god. I had talked about this at length in a previous post of mine called Yeah, Religion is the Opium of People so, I’ll not start about it here.

And today we are going to find a way to solve religions.

Why are we ‘giving back’ beggars to UP and Bihar? Why are we rebuilding the roads only around the games venue? Why are only the markets close to the games venues being revamped? Or why are only the roads to be used by the athletes get streetscaped?



Don’t get me wrong. I am not against improving the city. But my question is, who is this development for? The developments are plastic and mainly only for a small section of Delhi and that too at the cost of the other section. For instance, There were power cuts in Delhi in Delhi in peak summer, and not coz there was shortage of power.
