INDIA: A CROWDED SUBCONTINENT

A VISIT TO MUMBAI, BANGLORE, CHENNAI WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD FEEL FOR THE GROWING POPULATION OF MAJOR INDIAN CITIES. THEY ARE CROWDED, NOISY AND THE ROADS CLOGGED WITH TRAFFIC. IT IS HARD TO CROSS ROADS IN BANGALORE, EVEN ON ROADS THAT ARE NOT MAIN STREETS. SO EVERY DAY , THERE ARE HUMANS DYING IN BANGALORE TRYING TO CROSS A ROAD.

HOW ABOUT MORE TRAFFIC LIGHTS, HELPING PEOPLE CROSS AND FOR A BETTER TRAFFIC FLOW.

MORE IMPORTANTLY HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL A CITY HOLD, IS IT INFINITE?. HOW BIG CAN THEY GROW. HOW MAY CARS (TRAFFIC) CAN A CITY HANDLE. IS THERE NO LIMIT. HAS A LIMIT BEEN REACHED IN THESE INDIAN CITIES.

HOW BIG CAN THE INDIAN POPULATION GET TO 1.25 BILLION, 1.5 BILLION, 2 BILLION. IN INDIA TODAY, ONE RARELY FINDS PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGES ABOUT LIMITING FAMILY UNLIKE IN THE PAST. WHY IS POPULATION CONTROL A PRIORITY IN CHINA BUT NOT IN INDIA.

A BULGING POPULATION IN INDIA , COULD BE ITS BIGGEST PROBLEM.

BRAIN DRAIN TO HYDERABAD

JUST MET AN INDIAN IT TECH EXPERT RETURNING TO INDIA AFTER WORKING IN THE USA FOR OVER 15 YRS IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY . HE FOUND A PLACE IN INDIA HE LIKES. SO HE WILL MOVE SHORTLY. HE HAS GOOD 10 YRS OF WORKING LIFE LEFT IF HE WISHES TO STAY IN THE USA. HE THINKS IT MAY BE TIME TO ENJOY INDIA. HOW MANY ARE OUT THERE WHO THINK IT IS BETTER TO RELOCATE TO HYDERABAD OR BANGALORE, INSTEAD OF SAN DIEGO. THERE IS A SLOW TRICKLE OF IT TALENT TO INDIA, REGARDLESS OF INDIAN CONDITIONS. IS IT THE TROPICS OR HOME COOKED FOOD OR THE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY OR THE X FACTOR AND WHAT IS X.
