"Over the next decade, several brand new cities will sprout across th Indian landscape, with both government and India Inc. chipping in URBAN DREAMS"
cover story of sunday economic times dated 28 march, 2010
The next generation India is witnessing a growth in software industry but now comes the future -- after NREGA new planned cities are proposed and being witness to such a grand master plan, is a noted moment in lifetime.
Sample this:
"Today, petroleum, steel, cement, infotech, auto and other industries are spurring town-to-city transformations, conurbanisations and extensions, if now always new cities."
from the same news report.
take example of noida, gurgaon, pune, bangalore, navi mumbai and also mundra, kandla are some extensions.
The next trend is the brand new cities which India has seen very less in the past barring few ones like Chandigarh.
An exerpt "The greenfield cities on the anvil -- Dholera in Gujrat, Manesar-Bawal in Harayana, Indore-Mhow in Madhya Pradesh, and Dighi and Nasik-Igtapuri in Maharashtra -- have been conceived on grand scale, along the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor(DMIC)"
a plan for the near future by govt of India.
So, now you all think what is history in it, they all are future plans.
But remember that we are in India and not in China, Europe, America where the things so such smoothly. There are conflicting cultures, languanges, religion.
The grandest thing to see is that how the new Indian urban middle class will adjust to this and how the cultural changes and changes in the view point goes from now.
->How do we celebrate diwali when most of India will be super-rich ?
->Do the new generation - i mean to say- the kids of the young ones who are reading it will behave like -- will they be equally arrogant as you are or little less or a slight more?
->How much new city will have impact of American and European culture or will there be buffalo's bada near each house(this is extreme)?
->In those new cities what will be the religious equation will be played by politics or will new India will be politcally literate?
->Do naxals approach city then after winning support from rural areas?
->The new education system will reduce pressure in future or will it disrupt the quality of education?
->How would be the policing system will be there in the new cities -- will be like the rotten one like lucknow or ISO certified of Hyderbad?
->How govt will safeguard new cities from terrorists threat?
->The most important question what will play a major role in new cites --- MONEY OR POLITICS ?
->Last but not the least do these proposed project will complete successfully/partial successfully/partial failure/failure?
My estimation is that there will be a mixture of chaos and excellence and it will be worth to watch such mix of drama in Indian growth story.
New unexpected thing will come out .
But the most things will depend upon the fluctuations of voting turnout of urban adults in elections.
