As Mumbai ushers in another year in just a few hours, let the days be filled with joy, laughter, and love and let nothing blight the peace and happiness of all those who believe in living for today, planning for today and of course, partying tonight.

Just like the past years, the city will no doubt rev into party mode, as revellers fan across the streets, and congregate in hotels, bars, pubs, homes and, of course, in public spaces too. While celebrations are in order, of course, the focus should be to ensure everybody — women in particular — rings in 2016 safely.
