Devil ban the damn runway

why dont we pilots get together and refuse to use this runway when it is wet.all airlines all pilots getting together through the union or what ever.
the minister can say the airfield is operational,like hell it is. a six o clock flight takes off at 1030. the atc has no idea about LTOM.they have no idea when the main runway will be available.and i want to meet the gentleman who refused to land on rnwy 09 saying strong tail winds. hello you want to land on rnwy 14 with the same winds[almost] . are you insane , rnwy 09 is the longest rnwy at mumbai. rnwy 14 is the worst rnwy in the world.they should close the airfield down, imagine the plight of the pax and the staff.
the touch down zone of 14 is like a ski jump.dont laugh at the poor captain please,that is a job of the dgca.
