The world has not gone through urbanization, but the WEST has & 'FOLLOW ME'/(Copy Me) is what it says or ensures & that's what most nations are doing & especially India is hell bent on imitating/'going through' the 'wheel'. A mind of your own? ANY?? or is it 600 years of slavery has created too much inertia? to follow, but atleast do it properly, sincerely and completely for ('western') process driven -linear progression approach is neither understood nor implemented. Indians have shown the ability to acquire but poor or no implementation. Eventually it has to be mastered like the Japanese & Koreans did. Not to learn from mistakes, but repeating mistakes shows lack of intelligence or deeper problems in the psyche. Why do you need to create 15 new cities? - because ET(Economic Times) says so, giving ideas based on 'western models' and is that the Only(&)RIGHT solution?. The right thing to do is a MUST establishing infrastructure in the villages.The existing land is not used properly, so you propose a SEZ close to Mumbai Suburbs to create more slums, stress, etcetras!?!. How many Offices, Universities, etc's have any normal - real & INDIGENOUS 'town planning','Urban Management','Emergency or Disaster Management' & then take a good look at what the Municipal Corporations, Municipalities across India do in handling problems, and for research, planning & preparing for future. Talk of Implementing it gets worse as city becomes town & worst when its village administration - WakeUP.
