does indian media need a global survey to find out that most indians are living in squalor?? is it not obvious once you get out of comfort zone in south delhi, or bandra or banjara hills? not only squalor, i think india is a ecological disaster waiting to happen. i came to india after 1 year, and it looks worse than before. people are at each other throats all the time. in between this desert of dirt and poverty, all of a sudden you see some oasis of magnificent building or township, built for MNC's. that is what we are calling development. whether you agree with me or not, but the most important challenge now is to stop the RISING POPULATION..which has stretched the resources

every thing is fine as we have all talents, manpower, resources & business magnates who are trying to repolish our economy by investing huge funds in infrastructure and other manufacturing plants etc. But India got Independence in 1947 ie 60 yrs. I would say that 60 yrs is a BIG time to prosper. I read some times back that Singapore was the only asian country who achieved developed nations's status just in 11 yrs. Ofcourse! its the joint venture between the citizens & the GOVT at national level n state level but there needs to be HONESTY, DEDICATION & SERIOUS IMPLENTATION OF programmes which are in best interest of the nation & its citizens. But unfortunately these characterstics are totally missing among our Leaders & beurocrats thus affecting the eniter generation & system as a whole. example is that in the recent terror attempts in UK on june 28 & 29. I could see the opposition supporting the ruling party in tackling the problem & not blaming or legpulling on this issue. We in India, infact, lack our vision to make our country real prosperous in short time but just take it with the time & opportunities comming our way 'by chances'. its the real serious & dedicated GOVT & its policies & then implementation of those policies in to to. Our leaders are opportunists & selfish, just have mouth service for the citizens at the time of elections nothing more. they need to be serious & real examplary. BUT dont know when!!!!!!!!!
