Why invest only in Smart Cities, when we're evolving "even" smarter and "Self"hi driven ?! Bail and Jail are now synonymous with one another, and the day is near when online applications will be accepted for potential heinous crimes, with an instant bail approval; payment will be accepted only through hawalaa(t)! While lakes run dry, trees are felled, concrete jungles crop up in place of natural bounty, artificial rains take precedence over showers gifted by nature. Sycophancy supersedes merit. Precious expressions of "love" and "missing you" gestures, birthday greetings and wedding anniversaries, as well as relationships among spouses, siblings, parents-children, friends, etc are announced or prominently displayed on social networking websites for public perusal. On the one hand, every individual claims that the world has nothing to do with what he/she does or goes since it's their personal life, on the other hand, they post every thing from real-time travel plans, airport lounge photos (why not railway stations or bus stands, eh?!) honey-moon photos, etc, for world record and consumption! Heads of Governments are either quiet and it's presumed that they don't do anything, or they speak so much that it's presumed that they're doing everything. Maa Kasam, relationships are confined to annual one-day celebrations. Vulgarity is served as an "aesthetic shot". Hai na, Smart? Bas, baja. City.
