Reality Bites

Last sunday, i went to one of my friends house for his kids first birthday celebration.  It is just 5 kms from my house.  The roads were good, but i just got confused with the route, so i checked with a passerby, who asked me to follow the lake, and i will reach the place.  All along the 5 km road, i could not see any lake or even trace of it. There were houses and shops all along the road, but nothing called lake

There probably was a lake in that place sometime back and now it is not.  Entire lake is swallowed and i could see tanker lorries at some places who were taking water from bore wells from some vacant piece of land.  In a city where water is a scarce commodity, if we gobble the lakes and ponds, i am more worried about the survival of this city

But, who cares
