Aedes Aegypti - this is the mosquito responsible for the spread of dengue fever. 98 deaths in India this monsoon, with 28 of them in the capital alone. Every year there's a monsoon, every year there's flooding, and every year there's some epidemic or the other. Anyone who has lived in Bombay will know precisely what I'm talking about. One wonders if these things can't be anticipated and pre-empted.

This little terrorist is also responsible for spreading the Chikungunya disease causing hundreds of deaths in AP esp. around Hyderabad. The Govt. is just playing the blame game and Dengue & Chikungunya are slowly spreading in all states in India.
