Rise of India

Shuttling Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Kolkatta, Chennai in last few months I saw a drastic change that has started sweeping India. The so called leftist calls it Great Urban Dream. But I have many reason to prove Left’s argument as a fallacy. Wherever there is good political governance followed by good political stability, the state is growing leaps and bounds. Be it Karnataka, Kerala, WB, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Gujrat . Way the dollar is entering country either from export or remittance, it has created huge job opportunity. The country which few days back complained about lack of job opportunity has now job surplus. All average educated person can easily expect a decent job .The days of power shortage, pot holes, red tapism, unemployment is giving away to heavy consumerism, luxury life style, e governance. The way these cities that I have seen are unbundling itself speaks of the confidence. Though still the cow belt region(MP,UP, Bihar) and North east are lagging in the gold rush that is taking place in some states. But, that is for different reason. North has its problem castism, feudal mentality , parochial political leaders, lack of primary education and North East has got its problem of insurgency and negligence of Center . But, I strongly believe that growth has a trickle down affect and once it starts taking place in certain regions of the country its affect will have positive impacts in underdeveloped areas also. If the politicians of the country dnt hijack the idea of dream India with their insular policies then the Goldman Sachs report of India being super power by 2050 might come true. Though a long way to go n loads off hurdles in road, but seeing first sign of developments in these cities I am thrilled.
