Every day thousands of people die. But still the world moves on.
Just due to one politician dead, a natural death everyone just

We are resilient by force not by choice. When was the last time
did anyone show some respect or even a 2mins silence for
Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Azad, Sukhdev or any of the people
because of whom we r free living Indians...respect is earned not
given and definitely not forced.
Today, Mumbai shuts down due to fear not due to respect!!!

stories high and having a glazed roof and/or large windows, often
situated within an office building and usually located immediately

Castella de Aguada is not its proper name. Properly, it should be
called Castelo da Aguada, although it seems its Portuguese
builders actually called it Forte de Bandorá.
It was built by the Portuguese in 1640 as a watchtower.
The strategic value of the fort was enhanced in 1661 after the
Portuguese ceded the seven islands of Bombay that lay to the
immediate south to the English.
It lies over several levels, from sea level to an altitude of 24
metres (79 ft).
