With a humongous indian population, the fuel savings and pollution rection could be cut down by huge numbers !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15602189.post-64849404326179784202008-01-15T13:58:00.000+05:302008-01-15T13:58:00.000+05:30Completely agree.

Given that it is likely to affect both employers and employees significantly, is it possible that the investment will start to move away from metros? Will it lead to a hastened growth of more satellite townships, more intercity corridor projects to channel development along highways? Will it lead to more development in second and third tier towns and cities? I remember reading Azim Premji saying a while ago that he was holding up expansion plans in Bangalore. Software companies have been gradually expanding their operations in smaller cities such as Bhopal, Bhubaneshwar, etc. Will this trend (which may also percolate into smaller towns)possibly accelerate if mobility in cities is adversely affected? Will those trends end up taking some of the pressure off metros and end up alleviating the hazardous impact of rapid growth?Dilip Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18294894305584371011noreply@blogger.com
