[Assam] MC Mahanta's bamboo-reinforcement

[Chan Mahanta]

This whole notion of a city, with as large a population as Guahati, 
not having a municipal water supply system is absolutely atrocious, 
and that while sitting on the bank of the Brahmaputra.

It is entirely a result of the dysfunctional desi-system of governance; which
is unaccountable to anyone, made up of thoroughly incompetent people, and who
do not have a clue as to how to tap into the abilities and skills of 
its own people.

Nothing could change for the better under this system. Only option is 
to dump it and build a new society from its ashes.
