I am not comparing US, European or Gulf states roads with it..... The problem is, our old, aged, mis/un informed politicians who are still imagining things with their sixty's /seventy's visions and uneducated attitude. They want roads for their daily political meetings and agitations not for travel. Basically what is required in kerala is good foot paths, so that population do not misunderstand that the roads are for vehicular transportation and not for pedestrian pass.

But what you said is exactly what I was saying - the impact on the global economy will be quite enormous - beyond what has at least been talked about in public by most economists and others. The impact of the same proportion of Indians as Americans today who invest in stocks. Whew! Interesting times ahead!

But, still Indian economy clocks such a high growth, Indian markets are skyrocketing and consumer index is pretty confident. The greatest change will occur, when the remaining population start joining the modern economy. If the remaining 990 million people start investing in Sensex, you would reach say 100,000!!!

Is it fair to leave them out of the development? (Whatever it is worth, it has improved life in someway, and excluding anyone is not going to save them from the overall destruction of environment anyway!)
