Economic Reforms
by Durga Thumati on Feb 09, 2007 10:32 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

As long as corruption is there country will grow %u2026 Our country is growing just by bribing. Any thing can be done by bribing our leaders. What we have is handicapped system. No way %u2026dude %u2026 you have to fight or bribe to grow.

These government reforms will make middle class to rich, rich to Politician, poor to beggar, beggar to terrorist. Reforms need to come from society and naturally. No body will bother if we start mall in my place with my own money. If govt allows some rich outsider to start a very biiiiig mall then, we need beg in front of his mall.

Take look at this cruel way of forming SEZs ..
Suppose a SEZ will be allotted to place called A.
The land market price in A is: 1,00,000 and govt price is: 30,000
Our leaders will come to know abt this SEZ before announcement to public and buy land over there. Then the price will shoot up to 2 L
Then govt will start acquire land from farmers but not from politicians for suppose 1.5 L (which is very rare case.)
The point to note is the farmer is not interested to sell his cultivating land becos this life for him. But he has no choice.
Now govt will sell this land to companies for 4 L
So the market price in surrounding area will be 4 to 5 L may be 10L

Now the farmer who has 1.5 L will do now??? He won%u2019t get any land around 60 km radius of SEZ or his Hut. So he has to get out his village and find a place where get land for 1.5 L. or has to beg at traffic lights.
Unplanned reforms like SEZs will further destroy the country.

See the other side of the coin %u2026
SEZ will come %u2026people who have lands around SEZ will become rich and richer. Jobs will come in 10-15 yrs time and some people will get befits out of it.
But %u2026.

THE RICH WILL BE SAFE ONLY WHEN THE POOR IS HAPPY

So try to eradicate poor than make rich to richer %u2026

Well, you tell which came first - chicken or egg ? Someone got to make the sacrifice at the begining for well being of future generations. If one go by your theory, we will never make any development. SEZ's are great opportunity to a country, and brings in innovations and employment for millions. As you say, there will be corrupt politicians who take advantage of such siutations, but atleast we are not a stagnant economy (I do not justify corruption, but its a contagious system we have to live with).

I am not against of SEZ%u2019s which are must for developing country like India. But the way govt grabbing land from farmers is wrong. Land acquisition need to do reasonably by the private companies but not Govt. The farmers must have share on the company which is starting at his place. (All matter is the LAND)

India reached this stage with out SEZ%u2019s. I don%u2019t know how many companies will come in these SEZ%u2019s in the near future but Govt doing real estate business in the name of SEZ%u2019s which is not good for poor.

If we introduce new new problems like this,
then how we get SEZ & develop our infrastructure
Others are stepping up BPO, so, some how, we
need to figure out way to step up our process
to implement the SEZs. They are vital for
countries economic progress.
When we tell about other countries economic
growth, we are very easy to tell that
that country has this much SEZ, this much this
& this much that. But when developing our
country the same thing why do we face all this
problems.
