9 out of 10 cities featured here (except for the suprise Bardhman) are the among the 10 largest cities of India. If they had included Kanpur(9th largest) instead of Bardhman, this list had all 10 largest cities as fastest growing cities.
this means rest of of the nation is not growing as fast as the big cities growing. This also means that only big cities can grow fast, not the small cities. So, there would be mass scale migration from small cities and villages to these cities leaving rest of the country underdeveloped. This paints a very dangerous picture of India's future.
There is no authenticity of this list and data. Could be handiwork of builders who might have invested in land in these cities and looking for good rates of the properties.

10% growth rate of Elephant and 10% growth rate of Mouse cannot be compared yaar. Mumbai is bigger than combined all cities of Gujrat.
Mumbai GDP in just service IT and finance sector is bigger than any states combined GDP of AGRI, INDUSTRY & Service-Finance sector of any Indian State.
One Marathi cities one sector GDP is greater than Any whole state. So you have give credit to Maha CM and politicians.

Mr Shridhar is absolutely correct. Govt policies and builder's greed is destroying good things.
Once Bangalore was a walkers paradise 2 decades back, is now driver's hell. Politicians in Karnataka never thought beyomd Bangalore and encroached it at their will. Result - a distorted, wounded Bangalore. Every politician, builder putting as many nails as they can.

are we thinking about introducing regional passport/ visa now? A lot of jobs will be created to form BSF's. Maybe Ranji should be named as India Cup, and all the Khans should be doing only Urdu movies. No need to have only one PM.

chennai has automobile,it,it-enabled,engineering,shipping industry next to mumbai and delhi in transportaion -less crime -social lift parameter exceeds most of the cities in india .why it ranaked 10th share the basis and methodology

by B Ramamurthy on Feb 06, 2008 02:08 PM Permalink
hey the cities have been rated based on GDP and this is how the cities have to be rated.. chennai's GDP is 6.2% hence its rated 10th, quite natural.
RE:why-chennai-10th
by mahesh lakshminarayan on Feb 06, 2008 03:01 PM Permalink
Guys,Chennai is not less in Crime.Chennai is next to Banglore (in e-Crime and hard crime).Actually chennai should be said as 8th but the raise in property rates with poor industrial oppertunitys had let to 10th. because this counts in GDP.If you take mumbai crime rates are high compared to any city but industrys are also very high.The security is tight making it space to 3.Most of the time its Surath,Vadora which wins mumbai as heavy money in those places.Chennai should improve as more peacefull state to stay and come head in this chart.Crimes count a lot,Delhi is top but they erase it there many times.In other states thay do it but late.Banglore,Hydrabad are actually in a threat time for development.
