RE:MISMANAGEMENT
by A Moin on Jul 03, 2007 10:46 AM

You can't do much planning when most of the country's resources are poured into a few cities like Mumbai, Kolkatta, Hyd, Chennai etc., while the rest of the country is starved of funds.

This will induce a MASSIVE influx of folks into these cities, and quite obviously, the infrastructure isin't able to cope.

Having lived in Mumbai in the past for 3 yrs., I can clearly see the city can't realistically hold more than 500,000 people.

A more equitable distribution of resources between the cities & rural areas is LONG overdue. This will perhaps stop folks from flocking to cities by the horde, thereby putting a HUGE strain on local infra.

Oh but alas, I must be an illetrate SOcialist...
