india\'s quiet revolution
by binu thomas on Jun 13, 2005 11:09 PM   Permalink

It is a revolution indeed and its everywhere. The illiterate tyre repairwalla, who ocassionaly fixes my punctures, has a Bcom educated son with an IBM call centre job in Bangalore that earns him Rs 25,000 per month and has made him the proud owner of a second hand Esteem VX. My apartment complex manager who earns Rs 4500 per month has a son with a diploma in engineering who earns Rs 40,000 per month with Accenture and who is travelling to the U.S. later this month on a six month assignment! More power to such people, numbering in the thousands, who are transforming their lives right before our eyes.
