Social networking site, Twitter should come out with a statutory warning: “It is injurious to people who mostly have their foot in their mouth.” This warning would have saved a lot of people, especially several Indian politicians from making a fool of themselves.
A week after Bollywood actress and BJP politician, Hema Malini’s Mercedez Benz car found itself in a crash with an Alto, killing a two-year-old girl travelling in the latter, the actress took to social networking site, Twitter to put the blame of the accident on the victim’s father.
First she tweeted, “Her heart goes out to the child, who by the way is dead, because she unnecessarily lost her life.” Immediately after that, she tweeted, “How I wish the girl’s father had followed traffic rules — then this accident could have been averted and the little one’s life safe!”
However, three days later, the actress rapped that very family and that too openly for being responsible for the child’s death. What Hema Malini giveth with one hand, she taketh with the other. Shame on her! Not only she (Hema), but her driver too who was responsible for the accident and death of the child should be arrested and given a death sentence.

This can be done by developing these waterfalls as tourist spots, building proper approach routes and providing lodging and boarding facilities for the tourists. With tourism being the major revenue for the state at present, the government should explore all avenues to attract tourists to the state and ‘waterfall tourism’ could achieve rich dividends.
