Decentralisation
by sat on Feb 12, 2008 06:45 PM

Had our leaders focused on decentralisation of industries such problems would have not erupted?
If industries r concentrated in one particular corner of India such unbridged migration r a natural phenomenon..Slumdwellers can infact live in a better conditions in thier villages but the glamour of these cities coupled with a tendency to show off infront of thier fellow villagers push them to metros..The govt needs to relook at its plans of rural empowerment as there cannot be 2 india..One deprieved of resourses nd other stealing all d glamour...Resourses of d nation r for each individuals nd each has equal claim on it...If u ban Chhath Puja in Mumbai so should Diwali,Holi nd Durga Puja celebration be banned in US,UK nd other western countries...The notion of adopting local culture nd getting rid of the native culture is weired...Do u think we Indians will totally banish our traditions in western countries?Answer is no..Ofcourse we will accept liberal western culture...All the bickerings over Bihari,Bhaiyas nd Marathis will simply polarise the nation on regional grounds nd achieve nothing except for handful politicians...If Mumbai really wishes to be a cosmopoltian city it needs to adopt a all inclusive outlook...
