if India-2020 is a hype or a reality!
by Jyoti on Aug 08, 2006 02:53 PM

From a friend of mine:

The uneducated, illiterate, indifferent, crazy and corrupt 545 MPs were shouting and screaming against each other over the pettiest of issues (this time the Natwar Singh issue). And yet another precious day was lost.

There are thousands of pending proposals and bills that need to be discussed urgently in the parliament. Millions are dying in the floods all over the country and yet our MPs continue to show complete indifference and think that the parliament is a holiday-camp to chit-chat, shout, scream, play the blame-game and then go home.

A BBC report report says that India needs to spend $350 billion very urgently on infrastructure if it needs to maintain its economic growth.

Indias intellectual capital will simply erode if steps are not taken to support foreign investment with good roads, world class infrastructure and uniterrupted power supply. Yet our MPs continue wasting precious time of the parliament, not realising that our country is at a crossroad and continually at the spotlight from international investors.

Just makes me wonder sometimes (with the useless politicians we have)
