In developed countries first they make roads , then electricity and power supply and drainage system and then they start building the houses. In India it is almost reverse. They are selling land at the outskirts of the city at high prices and there is no road to reach there. We need to make a law that should ensure that in ALL district places there will be adequate drinking water and power supply round the clock in next 10 years and subsequently all villages will have drinking water and electricity in next 20 years. no one should be allowed to interfere and no state or central government should be involved to avoid commissions and bribes. They are boasting of makign malls without parking places. Then they boast of making 1 lkah car which will cost atleast 1.4 lakh when it hits the road and again there is no provision for the parking. Sometimes I feel the IT boom has done more harm than good to poor people of India. Prices have gone sky high proportionate to the salaries of the IT mazdoors but not everyone is earning that much so how can every one afford to buy things so costly? There is nothing in the name of government to ease the rising cost and make it affordable for people. PC Chidambaram is the worst finance minister who only taxed everyone relentlessly.

We need to do this - we need to do that - this should be done and that should be done by the govt. ..... blah blah. You want things done in a particular way, come and do it yourself. be the change you want to see.
Its easy to sit back in an airconditioned room abroad and give this gyaaan. Everyone knows this theory. Reality in India is a different ball game. Giving gyaaan is easy - aukaad hai toh come and make a difference.
If you cant give up ur cushy life and roll up ur sleeves in India - stop giving advice. India doesnt need your gyaaan, it needs people who can bell the cat.
As for criticising the govt or Chiddy - dude, whatever you do in India, some patriots and NRI's will criticize it. Lagey raho.

What do you expect in a message board other than gyaan? We are not powerfull corporate heads or politicians. If you really want us to be involved, ask your wonderfull parties to nominate best of breeds (like IITians and IIMs) as MLAs and MPs than criminals and see the difference.
Talking of PC, this guys was found the most useless student at Harward.
