The fear to become Human

Mumbai, the financial Capital of India, needs no introduction. Many people come here with dreams of prosperity, learning and a desire to live within its richness. Well, for me it was learning. There is one strong pillar that helps Mumbai stay running, the Railways. The Mumbai Suburban Railway (also known as local trains or locals) spans more than 400 kilometres and serves over 7.5 million commuters daily. New to the City, it was a nightmare for me to see people running, catching and jumping to board the train. Also, the exit system sometimes is confusing- to see the upcoming Station-platform is to the left or Right. Over a period of time, I got used to these affairs and became little-bit aware about Mumbai and its travel.
