As a person who spent his early years in Gujrat and studied here this city holds very good memories. I am in the city nowadays as a visitor having visited for the past 6 years every year without fail. It saddens me to see that it has fallen well short of my expectations as a whole. Every year it seems to be slipping into towards an unknown fate. The situation regarding dirt is the most serious because it carries germs which cannot be good for citizens of this city. It seems no one has tried to get this anomaly rectified. It can be gotten rid of with a clear plan within six months. Then we have noise pollution which is excessive to say the least. Noise from motor cycles, noise from Rickshaws, and noise from loudspeakers which seem to be on full blast at all times of day and night. Then we have the traffic problems. It seems there are no rules as to how a person should ride or drive any contraption without being a nuisance to others. There seems to be a free for all attitude in this regard. Crossing the road is as difficult as crossing Atlantic by foot. Then we have Doctors as they are called here whereby they can say anything do anything without any recourse for their actions. Just stabbing with a syringe seems to be the favorite thing. Medicine is given which is either too strong or for the wrong purpose. Most of these so called doctors don't even have the correct degree to prescribe medicine.
