Won't you feel cheated? Now, add another fact - the land taken from you while the land accross the road is sold at 30 lakhs directly.<BR/><BR/>Now coming to economy: suppose I own a roadside tea stall. Overnight the business increases to 100fold. Will I earn? No sir, I can sell only 20 cups of tea an hour. Actually, I'll end up selling off my business to a bigger hotel.<BR/><BR/>Take home message:<BR/><BR/>1. To benifit local population, development needs to be gradual and in sync with local capability. Gandhiji understood it, but we are yet to comprihend his wishdom.<BR/><BR/>2. One needs democracy to spread the fruit of improvement. Monopoly (even in the name of State) prevents equality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29701512.post-56919269728054264942008-09-28T23:56:00.000+05:302008-09-28T23:56:00.000+05:30it is an informative post and blog. do also have a look at the blog <BR/><BR/>www.kolkataeyes.blogspot.comkolkataeyeswww.kolkataeyes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
